Dubbonics
Yeah I know Kweli has nothing to do w/ this post but Who cares...
Throughout time there have been many languages, Yiddish, Pig Latin, Ebonics but none like this one. I like to call it dubbonics. It's the way urban youth double a word to express the seriousness of what we are talking about. Let me tell you a story.
It was about 5 years ago, I had called my brother "Jerrod" up, he was so glad I had called him, I didn't really understand what he was talking about but, all I know he said ok I'm on my way and hung up. 15 minutes later he called me back, thanking and praising God, that I had called him. See he was notorious for hooking up with people off of blackplanet.com who didn't have a picture. See there are 2 types of people I will not interact with over the internet. People with not pictures and people w/ the angles. What is the Angles well, it's those pictures that are all from weird angles and one side only. There are no full body pictures and front view pics, just pics w/ the camera above there head and slightly tilted 60 degrees and always from the right side of there face. Anyway on this particular day he explained to me that he had meet the woman from hell she was 4-7 and about 400 lbs with a giant green birthmark on her face, with pimples that pop and oozed goop every 10 minutes. Now not to say that she wasn't cool people just he intended to hook up w/ her to do the dirty jersey sanchez and all types of xxx rated stuff. But, once he saw her he sat in Rutgers student lounge with her, and watched the Giants game for about an hour, totally ignoring her until I called and gave him his escape route. He said "Yo Sun, she was ugly, I mean Ugly, Ugly!!!" I laughed so hard.
I would later find out the meaning of his pain myself. This is probably the worst thing I have ever done in my life, well no its not but this still haunts me, one day while surfing the pages of BP I got a message from FreakNastyGirl99 saying something like I'm the creator of the Jersey MeatHook, blah blah blah, She got my attention, saying that she will be in Elizabeth NJ, on Saturday and that we should hook up, (there was more messages exchanged) Fast forward to Saturday, she called me and says she is getting off the bus, I close my giant Omnipoint phone, and head to go meet her, I park my car, walk to the bus stop and there she was, the same female who my brother had wine and dined at Rutgers student lounge. I dipped around a the side of the bus, walked up 2 blocks and around 2 corners back to my car, it must have took me a good 15 minutes. I drove off into the sunset, Yea I know that was Bad, I mean Bad, Bad but still, I might have lost a finger if…
So there you have your example of Dubbonics, using a word twice to stress the meaning of how serious the situation was. Now, I know this isn't funny, funny, but I think it is still funny. Names have been changed to protect the innocent.
