You might be a GBC if...

If you are like me, you and your closest friends have about a million inside jokes. Yep...its like sometimes you are speaking another language because in between hysterical laughter and trying to catch your breath you are shouting out random quotes and phrases. Well since for ever, me and my homie have made up nicknames for our crushes, people we hate, and of course acronyms to say things in public that we might get slapped for. So today I am here to share with you one of our beloved acronyms...the GBC. And what does GBC stand for you ask? Calm down I'm gonna tell you...it stands for "Ghetto Black Chick" That's right class...while living in Gainesville we had to come up with something to describe the foolishness that goes on at the mall, at the movies, and basically any place two feet away from our campus. Pay attention class because today is a very important lesson...a GBC cannot be defined in one sentence...these are complex creatures. They do not even necessarily have to be black..or from the ghetto...but there are a specific set of qualities they possess. Follow me into the wild for a second. You might be a GBC if...

1. If at any point in time your ring tone was "Bust it Baby" by Plies. Scratch that...if you have ever had a Plies song as your ring tone period.

2. If at anytime in the last 5 years you owned or rocked a pair of pink timberlands loud and proud.

3.If you own a baby phat shirt, baby phat jeans, baby phat earrings, the baby phat bomber jacket, and the baby phat belt, and you thought it was a good idea to wear them all together..at the same time....with matching nikes.

4. If you go to the nail salon and you leave with nails so long that they curve at the bottom...and you did the sh*t on purpose.

5. If you have ever purchased your hair and a plate of Chinese food from the same location.

6. If you have 3 or more kids by the same man, have been together for over 10 years, you live together, and share bills...but you are "waiting on the right time to get married"

7. If you are 200+ pounds and have purchased an extra small tube top.

8. If you do hair, babysit, and sell mix tapes from your house.

9.If you have ever been fired from your job for cursing out a customer, fellow employee, or manager.

10. If you have ever bought an outfit from the mall, stuffed your gross ass into it, rocked it at the club, then tried to return it the next day complete with unidentifiable scent and cigarette burns talkin about it didn't fit right.

11. If you got kicked out of your prom because your dress was deemed "inappropriate" aka that shit had so many cut outs it was barely a dress anymore.

12. If you lost your virginity in the back of a Monte Carlo, Impala, or Cadillac.

13. If you own a gold grill...add extra points if you purchased it from the flea market.

14. If you have three or more colors in your hair at one time i.e. bright red, blue, pink, green etc. Extra points if you've used yarn in your hair as a replacement for weave.

15. If you have ever seriously referred to a guy that you went on a date with as your "future baby daddy"

16. If your name is Keisha.

17. If you have a son who everybody calls Lil Man Man. He only wears a diaper...never any clothes and his nose is always running...even in the dead middle of summer.

18. If you have ever truly "bust the windows out his car"

19. If you have a tattoo of a rose with vines in any of the following locations: thigh, calf, upper arm, or right breast.

20. If your name on face book looks similar to the following: Shaniqua Imthebaddestbitchinda305 Jackson or Tiffany FineAss Jenkins or even Keisha Illtakeyoman Jefferson.

This by no means is an exhaustive list of GBC qualities. But best believe you will know a GBC when you see one. These girls are my entertainment...and well we all have a little GBC in us. (Oh Trust...I will curse you out in public...no problem.) This has been a GPSA (Ghetto Public Service Announcement)
