Why is their Hipity Hop and Jive Talking in a Christmas Movie?


Is that appropriate? It doesn't seem very civilized.

reply

I don't know what 1970's portal you've stepped out of, but why are you jive-talking and mis-spelling as a thread? Is that appropriate? It just doesn't seem very intelligent to me.

reply

Oh, is Jive Talking spelled jive-talking? Have you ever seen the 'Ladykillers', the old black woman says it's hipity hop but I digress. You see I don't jive talk much, but since your name is mybootyisthatbig no doubt you do.

Hey, OP, if you don't see your spelling mistake in the title, you better spend less time on the internet and more time on catching up on what you're missing at school.

LOL! Good one Pie! Man i have not heard someone say " jive " since " Good Times " And who cares about how someone talks? Everyone is different and that is what makes this world good. Well sometimes. By the way, the movie was not that bad at all.

Some goomba? Is that the best you can do to insult me Lady? Your a clown. I can not even get mad at a " Keyboard Warrior " because it is a waste of time.

Hipity Hop???

Hey, Also, the OP should learn the difference between "their" and "there"....I think that's usually taught in 6th grade....

LOL @ Frosty, you are hilarious! The only reason I indulged the OP in the first place was because I knew he'd come along and prove even further how uneducated he was...LOL! I love when people try so hard to debunk a race's intelligence just to prove they haven't any themselves-talk about poetic justice! (not to mention it proves intelligence surely isn't race-related, thank goodness the OP isn't the spokesman for whatever race he is!)

Oh, Franco(OP) or whatever your name is, mybootyisthatbig is a really cool play on words. I was an intense word gamer when 1st I came on the internet scene some years ago, and in these gamerooms, you earn gold coins in lieu of points. A booty, as you probably DON'T know, was a pirates treasure, usually made up of gold. My name was like a tease to all the butts I kicked in whatever game I was playing. So if my name is an indication that I jive-talk, Franco, you're probably right.

By the way, I saw this movie. Maybe I'm too cultured as an African-American to really be able to point out "hipity Hop"(by the way, it would be spelled "hippity") speak, but as far as I remember, they spoke English. I understood every word said. Did I miss something? Also, this was a Christmas family film, what part did Hip-Hop play in it? I am so lost!!

OP-maybe you could shed some light on this? (yeah, right...LOL!!!)

reply

Even I saw that the OP showed a lack of intelligence. And the more he posted, the more evident it became that he was stupid.

The only person I noticed who may have spoken in ebonics is Chris Brown and he did it once...in the line where he said to his sister Lisa when he wanted to take her picture: "Where your Christmas spirit? C'mon!"

reply

Jive Talking? That is so 70's! How old are you? 65+?

Damn!! My posts attract so many nutty B-A-S-T-A-R-D-S!

reply

So I know this post is old but what I find curious is that you put "in a Christmas movie" in the title. That's how they speak, most people these days actually. What are they just supposed to speak differently because it's Christmas.

reply

Is that appropriate? It doesn't seem very civilized.

Franco, I think you should elaborate on your post. Not "civilized"? Is the manner in which African-Americans communicate not civilized? Or are you indicating that since this was a Major Motion Picture, all conversations should be gramatically correct?

reply

The OP never saw this movie. They just hate black people. What's really funny to me is the grammar of not just the OP, but some of the people correcting him and making grammatical errors themselves. Yeah. You're and your are two different things. You're=you are

reply

Are you guys truly that ignorant? Do you honestly believe the OP was serious when he wrote that post? I think it's pretty clear it was meant as a joke.

reply

Why is "their" used instead of "there" in the OP's silly thread. THERE is a difference.

I'm two years late.. tardy to da party, but hey... Anyhoo, the movie is on now, thought I'd swing by.
