My role is to roll on outa here

 

[Mediocre Man]

Black slang alert!

If you're going to use it use it in context people. I've seen this idiom that we invented bantered around here and it's been used wrong.

You slow your ROLE not your roll.

You're not reducing the speed of a dinner roll.

Pretty sure it's roll. I'm on a roll, with my crandc nipple argument, so watch it

 

[julius]

I always assumed it was "know your role" and "slow your roll"

 

[Dougnsalem]

This site is not ran by black people. Ijs.

 

[dviss1]

If it really is "role" then it definitely should be "roll."

As many people in here that type pick and role....

Newsflash, slang isn't grammatically correct.

No offense, but white people wouldn't even use this phrase if it weren't for us. It's role. Trust me.

So true, which means you should be resigned as the head writer for the S2 dictionary and phrase book.

 

[dviss1]

That was funny.


Not that I care, but am Curious. How do you know this is a black slang invention thing? Is it really traceble?

Like "on this day of April 4th, 1988 at 4:32 pm, Anthony Smith told his neighbor to slow his role and thus it became known."

I'm sticking with roll. I think it makes more sense and I like telling people to slow the fuck down. We all go too fast.

Just understand that your lives are enriched by our slang. English appropriates language and idioms from all languages.

What role did Blacks play in the conjecture? Man I'm on a roll....

NBA.com started this season keeping track of screen assists. I didn't check Vonleh, but Nurkic ranks high in screen assists.

Im going to keep using it as roll, stop me.

That's you using conjecture.

 

[dviss1]

You can use what you want, but the bottom line is that it's just another idiom that been appropriated.

Another thing that bugs me. Remember when we put butter on hot rolls? Then, we had to use margarine. Now, we just rub our rolls in the grass for flavor.

 

[Hobbesarable]

It's not. It's role. It basically means know your place.

I always heard it as know your role while attending Benson High School.

I use butter. I'll die off the real stuff.

 

[oldfisherman]

This is what bugs me.

Most BB fans do not know the difference between resigned and re-signed. Or Dviss1 probably would not have liked my post above.

I don't trust you on this. I'm right. It's roll, as in truckers slang for moving too fast. Like someone is doing in a conversation. It's rolling off the tongue too fast. Slow your roll.

Conjecture.

I knew you meant re-signed. Using resigned is not grammatically correct.

I resigned. I didn't get resigned.

It originated as a trucking term, according to my professor in college. He was white though?

I resigned. I didn't get resigned.

Can you help me with the pronunciation of your screen name? Is it devious one, or is it d-viss one? I went with latter when I met you at the game.

What does the Urban Dictionary say about this?

 

[jlprk]

In related matters, how many here are pissed off that Pluto is no longer a planet? Chime in.

 

[rasheedfan2005]

next season i think 74-8 is a possibility but im a pessimist.

Would you ask a truck driver about terms that originated from college professors?
