SPOTS. It bothers me because it connotes this super secret heating co. factory that sells everything for pennies. If you cruised over to Arons, thats not a spot. Now I know there are spots that sell books and misc. as well, those are spots. But "spot" seems like bullshit, and bullshit is very bad cause its indifferent to the truth. I dont know, Im certainly no impressario on(with?) slang (correct grammar?)(maybe I shouldnt use words like impressario...), but it bothers me. So ban me, but can we peace out "spot"?Come and get it big boy. I'm grown.

    why? I say spot for just about everything...There's a dope chicken and falafel spot by my house called Zankou.

    yeah, same here.

    My wife hates it though. Here are some of my quotes:

    "Lets go to the one guys spot" (for ice cream is what that means)

    "Im at the spot" (referring to the place where the video store and record store is located)

    etc... you get the idea.

    Y0,

    And while were at it... Can Kanye stop referring to himself as the next Prince? Unless he's willing to give himself a symbol...



    PS- You can never stop using "Spots" when directing it to places of "FOOD"

    T.E.I.D.

    I'll probably never stop saying it...it's a good explainer as well as disguiser.

    me: let's go to Arons
    friend from out of town: what's Arons?
    me: record spot over in Hollywood
    friend: fuck yes

    Spot in my area means drug spot only. That's the only connotation I think about it in. Others sound alien, I don't use it that way. But dudes can use it however they want with reckless abandon.

    theres the key, it disguises and adds bullshit. and then we will never find the truth. everywhere will be a spot, and thus there will be no more spots. Like now. There are very few spots left.
    there's a point in here somewhere, lets all find it together.

    replace all occurences of 'spot' with 'joint'



    "yo, let's hit up that ice cream joint."

    "yo, I'm down at the record joint."
