then i joined the marines, and went to so cal. Was talking to the guy that lived next door to me in the barracks,(a black guy) and he was talking about 'hood rats' and I thought he was talking about 'hutterites' (german people that split of from the group that the amish are from) when I finally figured out he was saying hood rats, i didnt feel so bad that the conversation was not making any sense to me.
I know they arent bad things, but I think they are funny.
