    You guys don't understand...

    That website "translates" normal words into "thug language". And he said that "this is a language some African Americans speak".
    African Americans = black people
    Jesus christ is it too hard to understand this.

    Maybe you don't understand.

    It's a dialect, meaning the language has been adapted to their style. If their style is like that, then that's the end of that. You can't just call people out for their style of speech like that.

    And for your information, you calling it "thug language" is racist, because you're implying African Americans speak like thugs.

    WELL MAYBE BECAUSE THIS IS THAT WEBSITE'S PURPOSE??
    It translates stuff into THUG LANGUAGE. I didn't made it up, it's a FACT.
    If the creator of this thread wouldn't have mentioned African Americans, then sure, why the hell not, have fun with the website.
    But the creator of this thread decided to mention African Americans anyway, meaning that in their opinion this is how they speak.
    So yeah, sorry for trying to defend black people, that get enough shit for being "thugs" already. Soooo sorry.

    One small notice.
    If you see any threads like these don't respond like this, replies like these are not helping at all. If threads are offending, then report it, don't start raging in the thread itself as it only causes flame.

    Exactly. The swearing itself was out of hand and made it look like a drama/rage thread.
