The "Crunk" phenomenon...
 

Please stop. I know it's the hip new word but please stop. You don't have to say it in every thread to show us how cool you are. We know how cool you are. Please stop.

Thank you...

Leroy is my daddy
 

Can you dig it?!!!

I'm the crunkiest white boy ever oh yeah biatches...Ok not really

crunk? what the hell is a crunk?

Nick You Know You Wanna Get Crunk

I was crunk before crunk was cool...

ive been using that word for a long time

Yeh i'm drunk too

Right ... but now it has caught on and it's no longer cool. It's the same as when I used to listen to Pearl Jam and Smashing Pumpkins and DefTones on underground radio before people really knew who they were. Once they went bigtime it was time to move on...

And this thread wasn't because of the "Crunky white boy on American Idol" thread either Chris. It just reminded me I been thinking this for a while now...

what is a crunk?

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!! That word SUCKS!!!!!!!!! My husband has been using it tonight... he thinks he is cool whenever he says it. He just seems like a 35 year old Asian poser.

Sort of like Bollocks...

what the fuck is bollocks?

Well that depends...

on what exactly?

On what has recently taken place to make you use the word...

can you give me an example?

The English language is being butchered thanks to the rap generation.

You're married to Boneprone?

:)

That dude was to much for me on Idol...

if I were only to be that lucky. :winkwink:

Sorry if I sound ignorant but what does crank mean?

You're a pretty big douchebag if you stop listening to great music like Pearl Jam just because assholes start liking it. It doesn't make it any less great.

BTW, wtf does crunk mean?

BTW again, sorry for calling you a douchebag, I'm drunk.

UrbanDictionary.com is great for deciphering slang terms like that.

That's alright. When I stopped listening to them it was by their second album after the "ten" explosion. I didn't care for the new style they had developed for one thing. I don't listen to music just because it's by a certain band or because it's classed in with some genre. Oh and I am a douchebag...no doubt about it.

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh Right on :thumbsup

write letters and shit YO

The worst is hearing Carson Daly use the word, as he frequently does.

It's not surprising though for him as he is a cyborg created by MTV to further help thwart their plan of world domination. If you peel his face off he looks just like the Terminator...
:2 cents:

that pic is ultra gay!

Hip Hop is full of people looking for trends to run into the ground...

BTW, for those of you who don't know:

Crunk is just another way of saying something is cool...it could also be used as a way of saying you're excited or hyped about something...

And from what I have been made to understand it also mean "to be very drunk".

Yes... Crazy+Drunk + Crunk

Ebonics...it's the new math...

Car + door = Coor
TV + remote = Tmote
Hip + words = Hords

I think I am catching on... :)

Just watch about 2 hours of MTV Cribs and you'll know all of the cool new hip hop words

Anymore than that and you run the risk of going brain dead :)

LOL ... stunned little white wannabes, waiting for someone to tell them what's cool, make me piss in my pantaloons. I see them every morning in their shitty mini SUVs with the latest Top40 wannabe a plastic G tune blaring while trying to rap and throwing out hand signals as if they are directing traffic or trying to get a plane to land.
(Like at the trade shows ... pinheads running around screaming shizzle like dizzlehizzles or whatever the fizzle ? wow that sounded very cool, maybe I will have to adopt that and drop English.)

Shh, I think I can hear Snoop telling you to shut the fuck up!
