If I were to start talking with a British accent, even though I have never been to England, people would say I was an idiot. I am from Illinois and if I were to start talking with a Texas or Brooklyn accent even though I have never been to either place people would call me a moron. Why then, do people who have never even been to a ghetto think it is cool to try to talk like they are from the projects or something. I was visiting family in Terre Haute, Indiana (which doesn't even have a ghetto) and a lot of the white kids there do that (or at least try to sound like what they THINK people in the ghetto sound like).

I think it's because they see it's "cool" from the media, and they want to feel accepted. But it's ridiculous because they usually just sound uneducated. Ugh, teenagers!

They sound every bit of a moron as the British or southern wana-bes.
