Check out the Reddit conversation on this. Commenters are throwing out the racism card like it’s going outta style. “Urban” is “urban”………relax. It’s an entertaining read and an expected Reddit time waster.

he must be really embarrassed that he typed "the cookouts" instead of "da cookouts" in that one
― lame adele rey (some dude), Friday, 13 January 2012 04:12 (twelve years ago) link
it's written exactly how a white dude would think black kids would talk.
there's no fucking way 12 year olds are cracking Jumanji jokes.

no one says 'where the cookouts and shit' either. speaking w/ a dialect doesnt mean that your sentences are missing words
― Sh1pley Gohard (D-40), Friday, 13 January 2012 08:27 (twelve years ago) link
I hear people say "where the ____" without a verb all the time.

I've heard ppl say "where there are" and maybe slurring together 'there'&'are' like "there'r" but i dont think i've ever heard someone say "where the cookouts ...." and then just trail off. unless they had, like, a brain slip or were just generally dumb? idk i cant think of a time ive ever heard someone just drop off the verb entirely? it reads more like a baby's understanding of conveying ideas to me.
although i guess trying to find the logic in a racist's attempt to transcribe 'how black people talk' is the real problem
― Sh1pley Gohard (D-40), Friday, 13 January 2012 10:04 (twelve years ago) link
i've heard people say 'where the keys?' or i've said that, sure, but that's a different sentence than 'isn't this the park where the cookouts?' ... where the cookouts what? whereas in the first its implied that you're dropping "[where] are [the keys] located?"
idk it just reads like either a mistranscription or a made-up transcription the way it is imo
― Sh1pley Gohard (D-40), Friday, 13 January 2012 10:07 (twelve years ago) link
could be terrible punctuation. "Ain't this a park? Where the cookouts and shit?"
nb still horrible

i remember many years ago reading an essay about the transcription of working class voices in Charles Dickens and Robert Tressell that examined similar issues of a "neutral" representation that codes as mockery on the page. i'm guessing mr ghettohikes hasn't put any thought into this...for some reason
― Poppy Newgod and the Phantom Banned (Noodle Vague), Friday, 13 January 2012 11:13 (twelve years ago) link
and this is the board where "where the tittays at" was a long-running joke
― Derartu Cthulhu (NickB), Friday, 13 January 2012 11:16 (twelve years ago) link
"tittays" is hilarious in a way that "dat" just ain't?

Just found out that for years I've been saying "Where's the white women at" when I should be saying "Where the white women at" :-(

Yeah - though now that I can see the sentence that D-40 thought it was, he seems less crazy.

I have heard "jumanji" as slang in the last year, fwiw. Not by a 12-year-old per se, but maybe it's just in the ether right now.

jumanji still gets played on like abc family all the time, it's obviously not a lion king-level evergreen kids' movie but i think plenty of present day kids are familiar with it
