Yo - leaving with a trainer, what to pack for 6 weeks?

28 days without a shower?? I hope you're joking....

 

That is what I was thinking. This isn't YO MTV Raps, learn to speak like and educated individual. I grew up in "the ghetto" however I made sure that it did not define me. I don't dress like a "thug" or talk like a "rapper". Poverty does not excuse stupidity. Everything you say and do affects how other perceive you. I have seen your other posts and know that you did not mean anything by posting Yo, but come on man. You are asking for help, show a little respect.

 

And the 2013 award for Least Amount Of Effort Put Into A Non-Descriptive Thread Title goes to....

(I couldn't resist - it's my #1 pet peeve)

 

Gunner,that Oak Park is a rough neighborhood. I worked down on Stockton BLVD for a couple years doing reconstruct,i got sick one night and went home ,after i left there was a gunfight at the motorcycle club next to Luigi's and a couple dudes died,i was working right in front while they were partying only time i was glad i got sick and went home.

 

Oh boy,this guys going to be behind the wheel of a truck.

 

While laughing at the title... it should be noted, that the area I live in, the Philadelphia region... Yo is a perfectly acceptable and often used word.

"Yo, you know what time it is?" Yo, which way do I need to go to hit 95?" "Yo, how much is a cheesesteak"

Not sure where this poster is from, but come on guys... nobody saw Rocky? Yo Adrian!

 

Oak Park, California not Illinois. I did not grow up in California but Texas near Ft. Hood. Not the nicest place. Oak Park, CA is about as nice as you can get without being a millionaire.

 

Rocky was punch-drunk so he has an excuse.

 

Or the Yao Ming/Yogi Berra commercial? (Yo! No checks!)

It's an acceptable greeting, sure, but just stupid for a thread title. Moderators should just change it to 'duh'.

 

Perfectly acceptable for some folks to use "YO" in their neighborhood when home. Try telling a DOT officer "Yo, I forgot to update my log book".Or at a grocery receiver in the south " Yo, I need a door". At a truckstop in Texas " Yo, anybody got a light?". Get on the CB crossing Montana" Yo, east-bound, you-se guys seen any ba-yars behind you". Does not show much respect. And to get respect, first you give respect.

When in Rome, do as the Romans do.
