Which one in your car? X-box or PS2?

oooo they dont??

Just get some double-sided tape and stick it to the windshield right in front of the passenger, the view is obviously wasted on them anyhow. Personally I think you would be better off with a pc... got something to run DSMlink on that way.

Not really. It’s more so that a large majority (not all) of black pop culture is rap and hip hop. The rappers themselves buy escalades and put TV screens and video game systems into them, for them it's like a prerequisite to being successful. Most of the fan base, which is mostly black, wants to do the same. All of the successful people in that genre of music do it, and most blacks follow that genre of music, it only makes sense that it would be seen as the ultimate "cool thing to do".

Unfortunately it is the rappers that are the role models and provoke the desires for the completely unnecessary and over-excessive waste of money. Kind of sad really, if they showed more responsibility with their success perhaps there would be fewer stereotypes toward black people. It's the children that listen to that music and admire them most, and it’s the children that are the future.

The comment greyforestgst made is stereotypical, yes. It is however, a legitimate stereotype. It is backed by economical facts; therefore it’s not a stupid one. It's potentially offensive one, and that’s because quite honestly, the truth hurts.

Sorry to go off-topic, felt I could explain the comment that was made. Kinda to prevent a flamewar. Hopefully this post doesn’t start one... So if I offended you, the following line is for you.

Don’t listen to me, I'm an idiot.
 
LOLllllll best post ever^....i think it is pretty retarded to put a ps2 or xbox in ur car...who wants to play a game on a 5 inch screentv when u could go play it in a house like normal people on tvs the size of a damn dsm...the choice is yours but ull never see me put a game system in my car :thumb:

I 100% Agree with your post.

I am so happy to here the NWACP and everyone talking about how they are just noticing that the black is getting dumber everyday talking the way they do. Don't confuse me with a racist.. I have black friends.. They talk normal and I can understand them... And believe me I know there are little Eminem's out there.. They are 2x as worse.. Its sickening seeing all the irresponsibility of parents not teaching their kids to respect property and to speak normally. Did anyone here that qoute from cnn.com about "I like how these poor people can pay for $500 sneakers.. But need to be on wellfare and foodstamps." Can someone explain why they like being so gaudy anyway? Shit on thier teeth, biggest rims, Kinda go overboard with all that shit...

I really question everyday why I would want to grow up in this world if these are the people that are going to be working beside me and driving 3000 pound cars at me? #### this shit, they better start telling there little #####s that NBA doesn't accept you if you can't pass high school and to rap you need to know how to spell and write paragraphs.

And just like he said above... I'm an idiot seeing how I am only 17. So please don't listen.
 
Oh back to the discussion of putting something really expensive in your car that will be stolen by the black kids that want it. But parents think its funny when they come home with it and didn't have to buy it.
 
yeah .. uh not too add to all the off-topicness of the previous posts about certain stereotypes of black culture . But I Say If you like rapping about chromed 24 inch rims , spinner pendants ( like the one in popping them things , 50 cents) bragging about all your bitches and hoe's and how your a player and all that , you should'nt deserve to rap . Don't get me wrong , I like rap but more with lyrics like NAS and stuff that's more thought about then just making a video on how rich you are . I don't care if you' ditched the jag and took the rolls' that's just being a show-off.

Now back to the ps-2 and x-box thing , i'd keep it in your house or at least , install it in a way you could remove it easily , i'm just not into paying 500-600$ + dollars to have a gaming console in my car. Just ask yourself if it's worth that much of your hard earned cash to entertain your passengers.

Just my .02 Canadian cents.
 
i personally, have the ps2 in my car. i dont think ive ever played xbox though. i would also suggest reconsidering how badly you really want a tv. personally, by the time my ps2 is loaded, and ive goten through menus and am into gameplay, ive already reached where i need to be, and its time to shut it down. im not saying this to bash Tv's and say they are useless, but from my experience, its a waste of money. ill gladly sell you mine if your still lookin.
 
me personaly i get the whole act like eminem thing all the time.. iam a skateboarder from sandiego who grew up listening to him hop... not rap! hip hop. and along with that remeber hip hops a life style not just music. along with skateboarding most dont get how it goes togeather. alot of people think hip hops is all rims and shoes. so thats what they do. i might go down the street listing to Quasimoto then next i might listen to the doors..... also why the hell would someone keep paying all this money to make there self look like they got money and shi... 26in rims big ass truck. tv's in the headrest when theres no one there to watch it. then they look at me like wtf.... but its cool because alot of those people are the same ones like damb... that nice when they come to the shop to have freeken underbody lights or even tail lights installed.. i make the easyest 60 dollars for installing taillights on an expedition all the time... haha. okay iam done!

I'm going the old school route. I'm putting an original NES system in mine along with a TV tuner. I guess some might think its ###, but I think its kinda unique. It should stand out at shows I'd think. Plus, everyone likes to play the NES every once in a whie after they haven't played it in years.
 
Ahhh.. I thought when you said unique you were inpling diffecnt and never been done before.. thats what i get for assumin. peace
 
B17tuner you are a dumb azz. So I guess if a whiteboy goes and puts tv's and stuff in his car he is acting Black? You talking like that I am sure you don't have any real black friends, cause if you did I am sure they would beat the ho-hoppin sh$t out of you. You little punk, don't let me find out where you live.

LOL.. I knew this was coming. Yes if a white boy puts TV's in his car "and stuff" he is wanting to act in a ignorant way he is a (bad black person name). I am sorry my friends are real... Not REAL as in Real gangsters... but I guess I'm not that cool. :(

"Beat the ho-hoppin sh$t out of me"? Please again this is what we are trying to show you. That is ignorant and not cool. You do not look good in anyway when you bring your self down to that level.

I'm not little. 6'2" is hard to see over the Internet. Find out where I live? Find me.. Come to my house and do something because I expressed my opinion over the Internet in a normal way. You can show your maturity by threaten me. But I still will kill you with my bare hands and know I helped the world out by removing you from it. :D :thumb:

Real men get an education and help their family grow. I guess you are a real man stealing stuff for your car so it will be mad tyte yo. :thumbdown

People need to goto sociology class's and get hit in the face a few times. This world sucks. Lock this shit before I get shot niggyface. :barf:

B17tuner: 1 person he was bitchin at : 0

It's cool all the bashing and flaming that goes on in these forums , just wish people would just shut up and talk about the thread subject and nothing more

Anyways , feel like doing whatever you want to do , I personnally i'm not a gamer , The most modern peice of gaming hardware I have is a snes . I do , however prefer the x-box , but I guess its pretty big . I would put an lcd screen with a pacman game and a joystick and shit on the dash . I'd dig that
