That site isn't all ebonics,  there's lots of white people slang as well.  There's actually some really creative expressions there that black people probably couldn't have been able to make up.

That is all street slang. Nothing like the ebonics I am used to reading on this site.

There are two kinds of Ebonics. There is the gangster kind with slang where people try to act cool and then there is the Ebonics where people simply use bad grammer.

"I be chillin' in da hood wit da homies." is the first kind.

"I is relaxin' in da neighborhood wit my friends, UMM HMM." is the second kind.



I'm sure you and Chaim could be visiting nigrology professors at the universities. :::D
