Feel old Huh? I'm old enough to remember when feeling GAY was a good thing (Happy). Many words have changed over the years, but, IMO, none more than GAY.

Actually, I think "Scam" is currently being used.
Last week I was watching a COPS episode and there was a scene about an officer interviewing a 14yr old girl who got molested by a family friend. When they asked her to described what happened, she started by saying "I was lying on my bed and she (yeah, the girl got molested by an adult lady) got on top of me. We started scamming and then... "
I was like oh ****.. scamming, haven't heard that in a while. I wonder if this is an older episode?
Then they showed how the female suspect was arrested and taken into a new Dodge Charged cop car... hence this was a recent show. I guess the word feels old school cuz we used it back in the day and figured it hasn't been used any longer? "I wonder if the girl at the bar will throw a scam?" LoL

I feel you on the "where you from dawg."
Then theres... "lets scrap"
Sometimes I just hope these fools just get shot up. I love it when a short a$$ asian comes up to me acting all hard when i'm with my girlfriend.. then brings all his boys in w/ shanks / straps.. that is hilarious to me.. how gangster are you to hit up some dude w/ his girl? lmao
I'm one too familiar with that ****.
I love SD, love LA, but san diego is much more mellow..
