"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

But that makes it an even better choice. IMO.

Me too.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

Nana korobi, ya oki. (Fall down seven times, stand up eight.) ~Yuzuru Hanyu/Japanese proverb

but I a lot of hip hop slang--any slang, really, isn't nice, on purpose.

True. But I wasn't thinking of the hip-hop crowd as using the reference. I'm thinking of assholes like my brother who look for any way to turn something into a derogatory phrase, whether it's against yuppies, African-Americans, Muslims, or any group that is not "one of us." I hadn't even thought of it as something someone might have used with pride. I think I'm turning into an old fuddy-duddy.

I'm wondering do any of us giving feedback know a whole lot about hip-hop slang? If so great. If not, might be better to get feedback from someone who does. IJS.
