[quote=Pezzle;2372828]I’m sure you could!
However most women I have encountered in central New Jersey are completely untrained and rather bad at being spontaneously violent. Therefore, I like my odds.
Trust me I don’t step into a lot. Then again, I like to stay safe - don’t walk alone in Trenton after midnight![/quote]
Apparently you do not hang around many guidettes.
…which is actually probably good.

It is a wonderful thing. I really don’t encounter a lot of Guidettes or Guidos in Trenton, believe it or not. I also don’t think they are attracted to Irish Pubs. On the occasions I’m with friends in Belmar though, god forbid, it’s like the invasion of walking carrot people.
Where in Trenton do you train? I’m there at least once a week to visit my mother or run bullshit errands.
Props to Pezzle.
IMO Guido bashing is fucking annoying. Where I grew up all Mediteranian people (Italian, Port, Greek, Jewish, etc.) stood together to survive the blood lust and insanity of the Irish. I used to live in the North End (little italy) and consider myself from the same culture as them. In the 80’s I wouldn’t set foot in Southie looking the way I do (pretty much like an Italian). Too dangerous.
Jersey Shore makes me sick. “Oh look, a mating pair of Italians! I thought they were extinct since the 80’s honey. Aww… how quaint.”

The last time I was at Weapons9 in NJ for the fights all I could think was, “wow it is so… Italian here” I don’t know why, but it gave me a warm feeling. Boston is all Yuppies and Irish now.
And it’s “Ginzo”. “Guido” is pejorative, or is that the point?
Stugots!

No worries! We are not using it as the original “pejorative” term to describe a working class Italian! Props!
It’s a completely different meaning here, at least when talking about the New Jersey coastline in the Spring and Summer. “Guido” is used to describe an annoying shore douchebag species that has gigantic spiked hair, orange rub on tan skin, popped collars. Essentially they look like Oompa Loompas. They are pricks and their bitches are bitches under normal circumstances. I’ve never been able to successfully get along with one.
PS Sorry us Irish folk are so insane, but I’m a halfbreed of Italian and Irish, much like a Werewolf-Vampire
Jesus, I’m getting cancer just looking at the guy in the middle.
Edit: wait, it’s spray on isn’t it?
OMG!
thats just too funny!
i should go there sometime to see these people in their natural habitat.
guidos you call em?
is that cos they’re from italian roots?
Love the Londo Mollari look.
I know TCMA is looked down upon here a lot, but I train Hung Ga in Ewing at Southern Shaolin Academy. Where do you train in P-Ville?

Sometimes they go to the tanning bed AND spray so they look like a bronze carrot.
At one point that’s where it originated I’m most certain, but now it’s just synonymous with asshat.

Urban Dictionary says it better than me.
I encountered for the first time a few Guidos at a tournament a few months ago. One guy was so tanned you’d swore somebody just rubbed shit all over his body.
As to the topic I mentioned in my first post here there has been one situation where I intervened in a domestic dispute. I was at a party with my friend that I train with along with two of my friends and my cousin. Everything was going fine, no bullshit no problems. I stepped outside (was a house party in a Brownstone) to get some fresh air and so I could check my phone as it was kinda crowded inside. Once I walk outside I see this guy and girl arguing. Didn’t think much of it so I leaned against the wall and paid it no mind. Their arguing intensified into just full blown craziness. I looked up again just as the guy grabbed the girl buy the throat and slammed her against the wall.
I didn’t think twice about it instead just ran over and pulled him off her. As expected he starts mouthing off about how he’s going to kick my ass etc. I folded my arms and just looked at him. His tough guy act soon faded and he just swore under his breath then walked away. I escorted the girl back into the party, asked if she was alright and then told her she should call the police.
“No no he didn’t really mean it. Please just don’t.”
…
I have always heard how abused women justify their treatment or their abusers but to see it in person…come on.

[/quote]No you are using it to rag on a stereotype. And set yourself up as superior because your aesthetics are more “up to date”

And if they put the orange in their spikey hair and turned their collars down then they would be acceptable?
They are pricks and their bitches are bitches under normal circumstances. I’ve never been able to successfully get along with one.
Really? You’ve met all of them?

Fixed.
FTR I am talking about Boston Irish, a group which contains many fine people as well as folks who thought it was a good idea to firebomb buses with school kids in them, just to stop forced busing into their neighborhoods.

Grow up. You’re not superior to anyone.
Oh snap. WarWheel just went Hegehogey.
I know! I just got burned with the fire of a thousand suns, I feel crispy.
Perhaps you are correct WarWheel, and I am being unfair with my generalizations. Perhaps from my viewpoint what they do is ridiculous - I never said they weren’t allowed to think the same about my silly social groups and habits.
You grow up in South Jersey instilled with a lot of BENNY hatred and it’s admittedly unfair.
I admit that I’m 22 and still rather… ridiculous. Plus I dress bad, but all of us Irish-Italian Werevampires do.
im mainland european, and also northern european, i find it funny how irish and italians consider themselves white!
lol!
oh snaaaappp!

Like for real for real?
well, irish are sorta like us,so we’re okay with them.
but southeners such as spanish or italians arent considered white.
they look really different from us they’rereally short and blackish and stuff.
now dont get me wrong, i’d probably be really into you if we ever met, cos im open minded.
the funny thing to me as a northern european is that i see a lot of american shows be it talkshows or movies or csi or whatever where people are being labelled as ‘white’, where we’d (we as in the r34l white peepul) go like: lolwut? thats not white!
Shhhhh… he’s carefully trying to climb in your pants. His Dutch-spider senses are tingling.
don’t be a loudmouth, remember russians are only considered white cos of Fedor.
you guys are still on probation.
