I told him I don't think so and we got into a nice lil' argument. Every slang term that you KNOW originiated in NY, please post.

And CLeveLand never felt like a Midwest city to me anyway and the people I knew growing up always felt the same.

ohio

 My life right now is better than yours though fam. No matter where I'm from.

 

So let's not go there popcorn boy..

 %%$?

Dudes I knew growing up always said 'real talk', 'pause', 'no %@#%', 'b' etc in Cleveland. But if you think that words are destined to stay in one area forever; you're crazy.

And Cleveland never felt like a Midwest city to me anyway and the people I knew growing up always felt the same. When you say Midwest, I always think St Louis, Kansas City, Indiana etc. I'm implementing that Cleveland is an East Coast city but I know in school they preached that Cleveland was a city where the East Coast met the West. It was never considered a Midwest city by locals.

And if you really want to argue where 'real talk' came from, some people will tell you that it came from Oakland. So you cant really claim a phrase as popular as 'real talk' because it's spoken literal. It's not something like 'pause' where it pardons a gay statement but has no direct or root meaning from the word.

^You know I'm from Cleveland too, right? I'm saying most of our slang is taken DIRECTLY from NY. We do NOT have our own style. St. Louis has "hurr" and "thurr" and stuff like that. Kansas people talk country. ALL of our slang comes from NY. As a fellow Clevelander, how many people have you heard say "That's what's up" or "One" or stuff like that?

^I've lived on St. Clair for 24 years. Woodside to E.117th to E.123rd to Eddy Rd (down by Bratenahl) so I'm right with you. Where you from anyway? And why aren't you out? I'm sure the city is ROCKING right now. I'm about to head out in 15min.

And "That's what's up" is clearly slang my dude I mean c'mon. You don't hear lawyers or doctors or judges telling you "That's what's up." I wasn't saying "That's what's up" when I was 8 years old. It just came around within the last 5 years.

"@%$@ back it up soon as they hear the back of the trunk,
 Now my stock like NY slang (What you mean?) That's what's up..." - King Koopa

I didn't know "burger" had another meaning here...
My friends and I have just always called fat girls burgers.
