PERPIN...p.s

So, yeah. Just wanted to make this a separate post. This is an extension of perpin, but since i'ma positive dude, i'd like to shed a positive light on the situation. The glass is half full. So for some ppl we'll let the perp'ish offenses slide and just view them as euphemisms.

eu⋅phe⋅mism; [yoo-fuh-miz-uhm] ;noun
1. the substitution of a mild, indirect, or vague expression for one thought to be offensive, harsh, or blunt.

So wit that said, the first of a recurring series called Euphemisms 101

EUPHEMISM #1

"I'm gettin money."

Don't we all know a person who always claims to be "gettin money." And the 1st thing we think is "No...u live with your mother...ur not." But before we rain on their parade, think about this.


She is TECHNICALLY getting money.

It is certainly money for someone else. But she is "getting money." Lil Half Breed probably can't afford what she just rang up, but in a perfect example of perpin, her facebook status probably read "Becky is getting money." Cuz half breeds always wanna identify with their side that doesn't lack melanin.


He is TECHNICALLY getting money.
(and has a very good reason that you should give it to him)

He's actually broke as hell but can technically bump Plies "plenty money' cuz...well...he has an abundance of coins on his plate (pun intended).

So next time you hear or see someone proclaim that they're getting money, don't reject this half truth so quickly. In some form it may be totally true. Chalk it up to double talk.
