From VSB
Southern blacks are more likely to…
…attend HBCUs, be Greek, attend church, be Baptist, have stupid-ass names that are hybrid combinations of other names (i.e.: “DeLadariusray Jenkins”), get married at a younger age, get married at all, buy expensive American cars, buy cheap-ass American cars and put $35,000 worth of added expense in them, know their fathers, hate white people but date and/or marry interracially, be killed by white rednecks, coordinate outfits, have happier, more fulfilling lives, eat everything on a pig except its eyeballs and anus, buy Steve Harvey books, look like Steve Harvey, be colorstruck and not realize that being colorstruck is wrong, breed better women (It’s true. Why it’s true is another topic for another day.), rock braids/cornrows/dreds, be provincial, be socially conservative, not be pretentious, have children, and be generally better people.
On the other hand, northern blacks seem to be more likely to…
…attend PWIs, scoff at HBCUs while secretly wishing they had decided to attend one instead of paying 75 grand a year to attend some bullsh*t liberal arts college in Poughkeepsie, New York, be anything (Muslim, Jewish, Atheist, Laker Fan, etc) but Christian, be smart, have stupid-ass names that have absolutely no connection to anything remotely human name sounding (i.e. “Powerful Jenkins”), convince themselves that they’ve willingly chosen to stay single, buy European, be cool with white people even though they’d never actually date one, be militant, get killed by white rednecks with billy-clubs and badges, not be decedents of American slaves, rock ceasers, coordinate furniture, have better, more fulfilling lives…on paper, be more worried about how they’re perceived (this is both a good and bad quality to have), be more resilient and tough-minded, read Hill Harper books, look like Hill Harper, look like someone who’d date someone who looked like Hill Harper, abstain from pork for no apparent reason, be staunchly liberal and close-minded at the exact same time, be somewhat lame, but migrate to the south and be the sh*t down there, be professional and promiscuous, live generally “better” lives.

I thought the joint was spot-on, myself. ESPECIALLY how he regarded DC, MD and NoVa as "north" even though it is geographically south.

DC and No. VA has a Northern, bougie feel to it. Baltimore feels more downhome and southern to me. Especially when I go eat fried chicken gizzards at Lex market. |

Someone else on VSB, I believe, appropriately noted that the HBCU disparity is a function of proximity. More of the HBCUs are IN the south.

but wasn't it a black tradtion that parents sent that kids "down south" for college. Proximity wasn't the issue then... (segregation was but that's beside the point)

I thought this was a pretty spot on. Although I didn't fit into the correct HBCU category.

Although some of things don't necessarily apply to me and my family I think these are pretty accurate assumptions. I love the Souf not sure how well I would fair in the North/West or East coast.
