Your Cities image? Posted on 07-07-2005
MrG4

What is the 1st thing people say about you when u say tell them where you are from? I hear this one alot. So you from Detroit i herd you will get jacked fast up there or **** all bad things really. So when you are asked about your hometown what is said? And about our image yes we do have that bad image. Some say it's the worse place 2 stay in the nation. But i just wonder because the pop is over 85% black?

I'm from Richmond Va. (aka Rich City, Richtown, and Cap City.) As I mentioned in the above post, I don't get questions, but I get comments like, "I can't believe there are confederate flags!", "Man Virginia is all country", etc. But, here are some pics of my city. Enjoy!

It is truly a mess! Why do you think I wanna leave as soon as I finally graduate (lol)? I'm pretty much tired of Richmond, and I dislike it a lot. BTW, why do you hate Richmond (just curious)?

Richmond is its own little world...i sware. First of all i hate the police up there-yes im bi*chng cuz i got a $271 ticket recently from turning onto Grace Street during the wrong time of day (wtf!!) :x .....when my car got broken into-it was like no police ever existed. Two words: Monroe Park<---my goal is not to become another one of its inhabitants. Gas is always high-in fact everything is higher there....why is that?? Man went to krispy kreme to get some donuts they talkin bout $12 for a dozen -what-man down here is $6. The "natives" irritate me with those damn gold glasses and fake fronts "Aye shawty...come er"-uugh the way they talk irritate me too. Bums walkin with me to class isnt cool either. Ok ive rambled on enough....

I've always wondered what a Nike boot is. And Northfaces are good for cold weather. I've got the snorkel kind, everyone owns one in New York, tho the girls one will set you back $250 or more. No wearing a Northface is kinda wack in NY, unless you've got something better- meaning more expensive. :lol:

So you're from Little Rock? Isn't that where Bill Clinton used to live? Have you ever met or seen Bill Clinton? Is it real country down there? ...and believe me, I get so tired of these questions: Did you ever watch that HBO special where y'all did all that gang-banging? Do y'all still have Bloods and Crips there? Is it gang activity still real bad down there?

So you from Texas huh.... Do you ride horses to school? Yea I do, and I wear tight **** jeans, leather chaps, and booots with spurs. If you don't get the hell out my face with that. Oh you from Houston though... Lil Flip yo favorite rapper? No!!!! You listen to screw? Yea I do, but I am more of a R&B person. Who is Mike Jones? Ha Ha that is so lame. Is it really that hot down there? No just be faking when I sweat or pass out. Gotcha!!! Is it as fun as people say? How the hell am I supposed to know. It's home, so home is like whatever. I know it's better than this boring **** place.

So you're from Brooklyn. I heard it's really hood there -actually no, brownstones sell for millions of dollars, and apartments rent for over a thousand in most neighborhoods Oh you grew up in Bed Stuy, you must know Biggie, Lil Kim, JayZ and Fabolous. U from the projects? -nope never seen them. I grew up on a nice, family-oriented block full of brownstones, and and I think they were a bit closer to the projects Why is everything in New York so expensive -because the white people here are very very rich and its nothing to them Why are New Yorkers so hostile -we hate tourists and when people try to be friendly to you in NY its usually some type of scam. So don't get cursed out, keep it moving What the hell is a hero, Uptowns, the city? - a sub, Uptowns= Air Force Ones, Manhattan So you really don't know Biggie, Lil Kim, JayZ or Fabolous?
^^****...and you dont even have to be from bedstuy for them to ask you that.... :???: ...and another thing i hate is when you say you from brooklyn and they say "I got a friend who live in far rock...do you know her???" "Yeah! New york got the third biggest population...so I should know her!!" :x
