exactly! it’s like if i stand outside a restaurant for a few hours and notice that it’s pretty much just moonfaces going in and out, i can there infer that the prices in that restaurant are going to be out of line with what im willing to pay. i dont really HAVE to go inside the restaurant to know that. of course, i could be wrong, there COULD be a slight chance the owner is a nutcase and is charging a dollar a plate with unlimited free drinks, but let’s be real, the chances of that are next to nothing.
another example. gay guys. without even opening their mouth it’s pretty obvious who is gonna sound like minnie mouse. no need to waste time and get into a conversation just to NOT be surprised..

it’s not abuse of the word. ghetto is just as much of an adjective as a physical place, not to mention can be used to refer to a state of mind. i dont LIVE in the ghetto but do catch myself from time time sure as hell acting ghetto. it doesn’t bother me, as i have no sensivity to it. also i dont care if it bothers other people (which is pretty ghetto when you think about it)
Rob – just keep digging that hole. It is fun to watch!!!

“Just your garden variety street rumble”
Not even – I don’t think there has been a street rumble since 1978.
