    I was at Subway earlier and I sort of noticed something about the woman taking my order, I couldn't quite recognize what. As she's putting toppings on my sub, she says "By the way, I love your dreads, how old are they?" and I noticed that under her hairnet she had dreadlocks! It was pretty cool, probably one of the more eventful things that have happened to me at Subway.

    Nope! Unless by "fuck" you mean she made me a sandwich.


    She clearly admired my rugged, masculine features, though. *Flex*

    The most eventful thing that ever happened to me in a subway was recieving a sandwich in exchange for a rather large amount of cash.

    A group of black kids confronted me today about my hair at school. About five kids.
    Each of them had black-styled dreadlocks.
    They were like 'What is going on with your hair? It looks weird, you did it all wrong. Look at that one *touches hair* it is all weird.'


    Of course I translated their mouth-full-of-dip slang filled poor excuse for English with a more easily understood dialect.

    That sounds a little offensive.

    On my part or theirs?

    If you mean mine, I described these particular character's speech in the way I did because that is how they talk.
    I live in a country town, y'all. I did not mean for it in anyway to represent the black population of the world.

    I had a guy ask me how old my hair was today.

    It's strange. Two years in Alberta and nobody ever said anything, good or bad, to me about my hair. Two weeks in Ontario and I've already had a handful of compliments.

    You called another dialect of English (Ebonics) a poor excuse for English. if you don't know how offensive that is, get the fuck out of my forum.























































    I love trolling trolls.

    Hey, if you take it as offensive that shows your own insecurities about your raceeeeeeeeee.

    As I said, I depicted those particular people's speech as such, not meaning to come off as representing the entire black population as described.

    They spoke with slang and very poor English, taking breaks to spit 'backy out of their mouths.
    I see nothing offensive about describing what they do. They know they do it.
    (again, by they I mean these five or so kids in particular)
    Naturally I did not enjoy talking to such people, who completely disrespect me daily.



    Especially when they yank at my hair.

    hmh sarah bet u live in tampa or naples or somewher in the west side of florida. down here in miami, i think all african americans give you compliments about dreads, no matter wat they look like. those boys were probably immature, stay at home with mom kids.

    I get compliments all the time about my dreads xD i've been loving it cos I dont normally get any compliments xD

    The only negative things I ever hear is stuff like ''eeeuuuughhh but you cant wash them!'', usually coming from people on the beauty therapist courses in my college xD

    I went to Saliie beauty to buy some dye for my dreadies yesterday, and i didnt even look at the chick at the counter because usually they are stuck up and look at you nasty if you have crazy hair. Anyways long and be hold she came up 10 mins later to help me and she had amazing 5 year old dreads. She had so many tips to give me on the best dye, i was so happy! After that my friend dyed my dreads and they look great and healthy! ill post pics later today:D
