Balls

So I have this friend who is having some troubles in her relationship.

It was amazing in the beginning (back in Septemberish). She actually giggled uncontrollably when I would ask how they were doing. It made me not know what to do ... so I just looked at her weirdly with a half-smirk and was all like, "Ok, relax. It was just a question."

It was cute. She was hopeful and I saw her spiralling into him. It was nice to see because dammit it gives me hope to see couples falling so hard for eachother.

Well, I suppose the falling has stopped because the SPLAT can be heard from miles away.

Anyways, she was telling me a bit about what was going on with the situation, and she told me that in their phone conversation, they were discussing an issue and his counter-argument to her was, "Why you trippin'?"

Okay. If a guy ever said that to me during a serious conversation I'm pretty sure that I would break up with him then and there.

Why you trippin.

Wow.

PS - Are report cards really that necessary?

I think I would have shot back with "Oh No You DYN'T -- as ghetto as I could and THEN I would break up with him.

And you know how I used to break up with a guy don't you?

I'd say: "I break with thee, I break with thee, I break with thee and then I'd throw a dog poopie on their shoe"

Everyone needs a little love. Even the wanna be ganstas! ha.

I agree! I always imagine someone saying that phrase when they are high. I know...it's dumb but it's what hops into my head.

HAHA! Jules comment made me laugh. I could only imagine what a parent's face would look like if a teacher said- why you trippin.

lol why you trippin. uhh? nice one dude.

and report cards? i never paid attention to them, but i suppose they're nice for the kids who need the motivation to get back on track or to maintin their grades. However I dont agree when parents pay their kids for good grades.

She should have told him to talk to the hand.

Enjoy your hiatus, love. See you when you get back!

One time when I was a teenager, my mom and I were arguing about something (as all teen girls and their mothers do constantly), and in the middle of it, serious as a heart attack, she said, "Nuh uh! Homey don't play that!" (like on In Living Color). I just burst out laughing. She was not amused.

Wow, I guess I would have had to respond with "you'd better recognize, foo" but that's just me.

Why you trippin just doesn't work without the addition of "Boo."

Why you trippin, Boo?
