DC brehs I got a question about slang. other DMV brehs can answer too...

[Roland Coltrane]

I spent most of my twenties there but I haven't been back since 2010



anyways, so Philly folks use the word "jawn" but I distinctly remember DC cats using their own variation of it that was pronounced "joan" or "jone" but it basically means the same thing, a descriptor for pretty much anything
"jonin'" on somebody was when you were cracking jokes on them at their own expense if I recall correctly


also, I was always under the impression that to "carry" somebody meant to disrespect them somehow


I haven't heard anybody say "you lunchin'" in so long

I'm coming back to visit the fam in February so I'm sure it'll all come back to me



or am I too am nobody talks like that anymore

The only person dikkriding is you - sending me DM’s, mentioning me in damn near every thread you’re in. You want some attention, Patricia? You want some acknowledgement? Some positive affirmation? What are you missing in life that has you this pressed for male attention?

I will never, ever in life forget bama

*sidenote* this is one of the greatest 7 minutes in comedic history, period, but I was legit when he was like "WE ROCKED THEM BAMAS WE ROCKED EM "
