y'all remember what they called white people who enjoyed hiphop
Do you mean wigga?
Listen, I just really like wigs
We had one for Asians who liked hipho too... Kids come up with the craziest shit 😬
Oh, right... I forgot about that one because it's also the word for a pest in my area, double whammy slur
Apparently it's also now a slur for fake rednecks? So that's nice.
And so the world turns. What was old is new again 😭😭😭
That was especially hilarious when I learned about the "whig" party in early US history.
"Holy shit! They were saying that back then??"
I'm not sure which one you mean. Wiggas? That's the one they used in Sweden.
Yeah but mostly hard r around my area.
I legit don't know what that means. Not American.
Oh wait. You mean the ending 'r'?
... yeah....
Oof I watched a clip from clerks 2 the other day where they drop the hard R multiple times and wow I did not remember them going that hard.
