The Fedora/Cringe thread

[topmo3]

lol and even if they did so fucking what

what are you, worried about the purity of your race and cultural heritage?

[garethom]

lol at thinking chavs talk like Jamaicans

[Laszlo]

hearing anyone who ISN'T black say blud, aks and fam etc etc

STOP TRYING TO BE BLACK YOU WHITE stnuc

fucking moron

NO!, white people trying to put on a fake accent/voice and forcing themselves to speak slang not native to them is moronic, you moron.

So you accept influences of other cultures in food, music, art, fashion but language is out of bounds.
The idea that one set of words should only be used by black people and not white people is retarded and borderline racist.

When you get a group of friends in a big city (london or manc or whatever) say 5 are black, 5 are asian and 5 are white is it surprising that they all use the same words and talk in a similar accent?

Its not a fake accent/voice if most of the people you know around you talk like that. This version of the language is native for them.

Where do you even live to have this opinion?

The native language for a WHITE person raised in the UK is not to speak like someone from jamaica, Unless they had jamaicans raise them. (rare cases)

you say this - say 5 are black, 5 are asian and 5 are white....if that's the case how come the 5 black guys and white guys don't start talking asain and doing kung fu, and how come the 5 black guys and asian guys don't start talking like english people. You don't hear jamaicans, asians etc trying to speak like english people do you, you know why? cause it's not seen as "cool" to speak normal english. apparently the coolest slang and way to talk is jamaican aka what we know as CHAV.

jamaican guy lives in UK for 10 years, doesn't pick up english accent
english white kid has new jamaican black friend for 5 mins, starts talking like he is black.

Lets have it right, white guys who speak like they are from jamaica/black just want to be black at the end of the day, there is no two ways about it.

[Nihilism]

I sense a lot of hate.

[garethom]

You don't hear jamaicans, asians etc trying to speak like english people do you,

What, like speaking English? Yeah, all the time man.

Got an Asian dude sat across from me at work, speaks English to me all the time. He even said "bloody hell" not that long ago. One of my coaches at football is Jamaican, and even he speaks English man, shocking.

[nowaysj]

Do you mean American football?

[kidshuffle]

If perfecture was black I'd bet he'd talk like an uncle tom

[garethom]

And oh shit, I've just clocked I'm listening to Jah Warrior on my laptop. Not sure where this stands, as Jah Warrior is white and English, but just to be safe, I've set up a Maypole in a disused bank of desks.

Do you mean American football?

fuck. I've immediately resigned and joined a snooker team.

[Nihilism]

Isn't rwude bwoi also Jamaican?

[Pedro Sánchez]

Isn't rwude bwoi also Jamaican?

No he's British.

[Perfecture]

I sense a lot of hate.

No hate at all, I have friends who are black, white, american and indian.
I was just stating something that grinds my a gears a bit, didn't mean it to start off a mass debate.

Also I am not defending any culture, although I am english I am as far from a patriot as you can get.
It just makes me laugh kids listening to boy better know and thinking they have to call everyone and their mum blud and fam.

I think he owned a dog in that cartoon if I remember correctly

Fair point, I stand corrected.

The native language for a white person living in an area where the majority of people living there are not white is this language which you are attacking. If most the people in the area talk like that. you will talk like that too. If i moved to liverpool after 10 years or so id start to have a scouse acccent. people talk like the peopl around them do.

Black and Asian people living in britain do speak like english people.
A lot of slang is borrowed from Asia
What you know as a chav (a horrible classist word) accent sounds nothing like Jamaican and this highlights how little you know about the subject.
Of course a Jamaican guy living in the UK for ten years picks up an english accent he also still has a jamaican one

Black people and Asian people in the North speak with Northern accents.
White people who borrow words and accents from different cultures are trying to talk like the people they live and socialise with.

Anyway why does it matter? why does it matter if some people want to talk like jamaicans

Where do you live to have these opinions?

[Forum]

Its an old argument that's been done on here before. People copy slang they hear, that's just how it is. Has nothing to do with race

[nowaysj]

didn't mean it to start off a mass debate.

Debate.

[Pedro Sánchez]

Well this is the cringe thread after all.

[magma]

You don't hear jamaicans, asians etc trying to speak like english people do you

True.

[garethom]

^^^ chavs

[therapist]

I just jumped to middle of a random post 'cause I couldn't be arsed to read everything and this made me laugh so hard

say 5 are black, 5 are asian and 5 are white....if that's the case how come the 5 black guys and white guys don't start talking asain and doing kung fu,

One of my favourite things ever said on here.

Though I'm genuinely annoyed at Wub's jam joke, letalone the fact people bigged it up.
