Ok, I've shared this story with a couple of folks and I decided to bring it to the board b/c it is hysterical. So, most of you may or may not know, I'm from South Central L.A. My granny still lives there. Backdrop: My lil cousin lives with my grandmother. She convinced my aunt to buy her a turtle - which she got bored with and my granny wind up taking care of (and her birds and her cat). Now, this turtle was pretty big - my granny would take it outside everyday and put it on the porch (in an aquarium) to get some sun. My granny was pretty much sick of the turtle. One day, granny took the turtle outside then went in to check on her cornbread. When she came back the turle was gone. A month later, one of the neighborhood crack head comes by and tries to sell my granny....you guessed...HER turtle! LIKE...WTF are you thinking?? IT'S a TURTLE - YOU are in South Central L.A.It's not like turtles are just lining the streets and widely available!! I mean, you can't just say...naw - this ain't yo turtle...it just looks like your turtle! LMAO!!! And no..my granny didn't buy the turtle back..she was sick of it anyway. So his ass was stuck with it! So, if you have some Crazy run ins with Crackheads... RUM UM!!

man, going to school in downtown Atlanta yielded many "crackhead entrepreneurship" stories.
Why is it that they always try to sell you something that's FREE IN THE FIRST PLACE??? (i.e. America Online cd's, the school newspaper, Creative Loafing). i've been asked to buy all of these.
And then there was the dude selling socks in the Checkers drivethru

Crack Head Story #1
Dude was telling me about this dude that stole his gym bag and his clothes (used sweaty clothes) from right there in the gym. So why this dumb a$$ come back the next week to the SAME gym wearing the dudes clothes carry his bag? And oh yeah... the guy that he stole them from - he WORKED at the gym (maybe this isn't so much Crack Headish as it is stupid)
Crack Head Story #2
BACKDROP: When I lived in Atlanta and used to get my hair braided in the West End - someone would come into the shop EVERY time I was there trying to "hustle" something. Sometimes, CD's, sometimes DVDs, sometimes straight up bull-ish. STORY: Guy comes in the store says he has this space age cleaning agent (I'm thinking if it's Space Age how you get ahold of it - but anyway). He cleans various things around the room with it - and his coup de grace... he said it was non-toxic and to prove it he pulled the valve out of the spray bottle and licked the intake. (Pause). So let me see - it cleans a few stains, you can apparently drink it, let me see if I can guess what your cleaning agent is...
...how about... water.

Hey, I bought some of that cleaning stuff, no lie... It didn't work as well as he claimed. He came to my house and did the demo on my front porch, he drunk some too and I was sold. I ended up with 4 bottles of that crap. Maybe I should have posted that story under a new thread entitled "scammed by a crackhead".

LMAO@ "it's WATER!!!!" So, I was living in Compton at the time.... I'm outside washing my car... A female crackhead walks up and tries to sell me a cordless phone for $10... WITHOUT the BASEMe: But there's no base?? Her: Naw, it's cordless...*scratching neck* Me: BUT - all cordless phones have a base - that's how you charge them up - the base connects to the phone jack and the outlet. Her: Naw...this the new kind. See...it has a antenna *extends the antenna* and it has power, it's on now *presses talk - the light comes on* Me: *grabs the phone - tries to dial - it beeps b/c I'm out of range* Her: *looking from side to side* Me: Did you just walk out of someones house with their phone?? Her: Ok, you can have it for $5 Me: Uhhh... that's OK. Ya got anything else?? ;D LMAO!!!

L...Dammit!!! LMAO!!!!! LMAO!!!!!!!!!
Aight aight...since we repping South Central....U kno I have a few
So..I'm working at Target during my Freshman year of college (borderline Culver City/L.A)
I'm in Guest Services and people are bringing back different items...and this one guy brings back these 2 bikes that he was going to give his daughters for Christmas....but changed his mind for what ever reason......
So the bikes are sitting by the entrance of Guest Services, which before they remodeled, sat right next to the front door. So the man finally reaches the front of the line and hands me his receipt....and before I could scan it...this young dude runs up to the man like "Ey that niggah jus stole yo bikes"
So I look up and I see this greasy ass homeless man on a bright pink ass bike holding the other one. And security can only chase thieves to the end of the red line at the front door....so there was nothing they could do.....and the owner gave up in the middle of the parking lot....
shyt was HILARIOUS!!
He rode off into the sunset with 2 brand new bikes....lmao

Unfortunately I have a crackhead for an uncle... one summer when I was about 12 my family was having a bbq and my uncle asked my aunt (his sister) to borrow her car. She didn't want to let him but she went ahead anyway and told him to be right back. The fool shows up about SIX HOURS LATERS blood shot eyes and sweating....... riding a damn BICYCLE!! So of course my aunt is going off asking where her car is and this nut has a nerve to say he didn't take her car... The whole family beat his ass....

At the time it wasn't because my pops and my other uncle jumped on dude beat the snot out of him.. but he broke free and jumped on that bike and started peddling fast as hell. (you know those bass heads are quick). The cops found my aunts car abandoned that night luckily there was no damage to the car. We suspect the idiot got high and couldn't remember how the hell he got where he was. The story is funny has hell now but we can't bring it up infront of grandma.. she gets upset
