Answer 2

Why isn't he called Fifty Cents? Can you imagine him introducing his parents? It'd go something like this:

ladies and gentlemen, my parents, Mr and Mrs Cent. Gimme a break! He's an idiot.

Answer 3

I'm white, and I've never said "fiddy cent" in my life. Must be a regional thing.

Answer 4

Ive never heard its said like that by white people. But then again, I don't know all that many white people that like Fifty.

Answer 5

the same reason u said rite thurr when its right there. u spell your word the same way u pronounce it.

Answer 6

It's the "dumbing down" of society. Why make an effort to enunciate properly when you can speak like you have a mouth full of marbles?

thurr for there?

Why do you think it's a "white ppl" thing. Is it appropriate for me to label the way you type a "black ppl" thing or a "latino ppl" thing? Of course not. Learn your lesson.

Answer 8

cause they think black people gotta b ghetto with everything they do ,and can't accept it when 1 is pronounced just as it is seen, it's not all white people by all means dont think thats what im trying to say but theres alot of people that cant accept stuff 4 what it is,( black and white )

Answer 9

Answer 10

The same reason you chose to spell the words the way you did in your question.

Answer 11
