this isn't 1991, no one does that anymore.

google map street view screen shot if true. i want to see what your corner store looks like.

What's the appeal? Something I've always wondered. I see it in every hood I've ever been to.

i think you answered your own question with the title. They typically don’t go far from the hood

then hit the streets…google maps be even having times square looking relatively empty
I don't live there, thus my curiosity.

and time square would make sense since if you went during busy hours that would be hundreds of faces and licenses you'd have to blur, and not only that, same streets are closed. best to hit up during downtime. but a corner store isn't time square. OP said 'all day' so I assume, 'all day' and street view should catch it.....

haven’t read thru the thread yet but the younger ones who do mostly still live at home and have no place to hang out…the older ones got women/kids at home so they hang out to get away from that shyt—corner store, gas station, park, in front the building/other ppl’s fukking houses lol…fukk it, I did it too so I can’t be too judgmental


Yeah it’s really about being in a central location. Hell it could be a Walmart. A lot of people come thru gas stations. If you tryna chill or get something off or even find a thot you can at a gas station.

It’s also where the jack boys like to lay:manny: I kinda look at nikkas like :hhh: now but I understand.

I use to work in a small grocery store, right in the hood. Pretty much the same thing as a corner store. Mostly surrounded by bloods ,they hung out in front all the time.
Smoking, drinking and hustling, hand to hand type. The owner hated it, but everyone coexisted. Every once in a while, we would drop black cats and m80s to make folks scatter.:lolbron: We also got to know a lot of their families from shopping at the store.
Majority of the guys couldn’t stay at home when their family wasn’t home:snoop: so they would gravitate towards the store, since it was close to their house.

Exchange of relevant information regarding shyt going down in the hood, particular street shyt but not only street shyt. alot of wisdom , and gems use to pass through the corner

even in prison yards, the same concept applies. a place where nikkas of the same ilk congregate to stay abreast of the game they play.

at least that's how it used to be.
