Or adding water to your cereal, when your milk is low...

You know you ghetto if you do your grocery shopping at the corner store
You know you ghetto if you play double dutch with telephone extension cords
You know you ghetto if you eat already sweetened Kool-Aid out the package
You go the deli and buy "A dollar's worth" of italian salami to eat by itself

That's how we do! That counts for holiday food, too. I'd bring my dressing, ham, turkey, macaroni and cheese and greens to school the day after easter (when there wasn't a break). Bring it to work, too!

Ya boy would come to school with some gumbo and some boudian.


- You know you ghetto when you gotta take calls at someone else's house.

example: Keith doesn't have a phone but his cousin down the street does. He takes and makes calls at his cousins house. His cousin answers the phone, it's for Keith. His cousin has to go down the street to tell Kieth to get the phone.
