quotation-icon.jpgWhy does the Ghetto need improving???? Stop it; there is a difference between not wanting long time residents and business to be forced out and accepting a lower standard of living as if it is a badge of honor. Why should we expect and accept garbage flying thru the air, swirling on the streets, landing in trees and the fronts of homes three blocks away? I don’t believe I deserve higher priced, lower quality food and products; expired goods on the shelfs and items covered in a thick coat of dust. I wouldn’t mind a few festive lights and pretty store fronts. It does make shopping more enjoyable. Why can’t we ever realize that we have to take care of what we have before someone else recognizes the value and takes it away from us? Then everyone starts screaming it’s mine give it back. Too late. The “ghetto” is only the “ghetto” when people stop caring.

  1. “Biff…I was out late last night and therefore not up as early as you…you beat me to it!!!”

    The early bird, a hawk I believe, catches the worm, as is demonstrated in the Closing Bell story above this QOTD.

  2. “And hudos to the When for turning on him.”

    hudos? Wow, you were out late, DIBS. According to Wikipedia, “A hudo is an outdoor pit toilet in a Scout camp, with a wooden sitting frame and a tarpaulin for coverage.” Were you offering to give these to the When or suggesting where to put The What’s comments?

  3. “When did I say “I hate white people”? I hate Smug, Pertencious Asshats (Like Dave and Biff)! Half of my family is white stupid. If I showed you a picture of them, you would laugh your ass off.”

  4. What – you really have to pay attention. You were called out for being a racist about 2 years ago. Nothing’s changed since then. Your “some of my best friends/family/dog’s cousins are [insert color]” doesn’t wash.
