I consistently get called White trash by people on SW and elsewhere online. But I'm not even White. I don't look even remotely White.

Y'all need to learn how to correctly use racial insults. You can't just pretend words mean whatever the hell you want them to.

People who use any type of racial slur or any type of racial insult at anyone of any race is ignorant, and to assume one's race is just as ignorant. I have no clue what race you are because I can't see you, but even if you were white being called that is wrong.

I'm Romani, also called Gypsy. So words like "pikey" are slurs for me.

Pikey is a word for Gypsies, not Irish people. But you didn't know that, so I had to tell you.

"Wtf is Romani?" Uh, Romani is the ethnic word for Gypsies, you fucking idiot. It's not "Rom." But again, you didn't know that, so I had to tell you. None of us call ourselves "Rom." It's either "Roma" for a single person or "Romani" for the race. Maybe you should learn what you're talking about before you pretend you know something.

@BluntSm0ker: I don't have a household to talk English in because my only surviving family members live separately from me and I am not in a nation where my clan is located. I am not "plastic" and you are not a Roma, you're a liar.

Now let me school you, pikey is a derogatory term for Romani people, not Irish travelers, although Gypsies living in the United Kingdom are in fact relatives of those living in Europe. Gypsies originated in India a very long time ago and migrated out of their homeland which is why they are so far spread and no longer have a home country.

"Idk where the fuck you're getting your info maybe Wikipedia"
I'm not "getting my info" anywhere. See, unlike you, I'm not lying about my ethnicity to look cool. You don't speak our language, you don't know our culture, and you aren't one of us. If you wanna pretend to be, why don't you tell me what clan you trace your lineage to? How about whether you're Romani or Romanichal? Maybe tell me which nation your strain lies closest to? Can you answer any of those?

"No one calls themselves Romani"
You mean no one except for everyone who is Romani. Which isn't you.

Romani is used to refer to the race which is in slang called Gypsy. Not "Rom". That's something you made up yourself. Because you don't know what you're talking about.

@BluntSm0ker: "I knew it you're a fake wannabe Gypsy"
Funny thing to say when I'm one and you aren't

"You know nothing about the lifestyle and traditions"
Which is funny because I know the lifestyle, have lived it, and know the traditions, but you don't. Because you aren't one.

"We call each other Roma not Romani"
Which is something you made up and is not true because you're not a Gypsy.

"I dunno how they do it in the Balkans...but I grew up in Latvia"
Latvia is part of the Balkans, and you didn't grow up there, you grew up in Oakland like a filthy disgusting gangbanger dropout piece of shit.

"While you're dreaming about Gypsy shit I lived it"
I lived in Serbia with my own clan. You lived in Oakland with weed dealers and not with Gypsies, because you aren't one.

"If you can't speak the language then you're not even Gypsy"
I speak the language. You don't. Can you even name what the language is? Go ahead, say something. No, really, it's ok. I'll wait.

"Dream on, redneck."
*is not a redneck*
*is not White*
*is not from the South*
gg no re

Nice job dodging the questions I asked you. Do I need to ask again? Can you tell me what the difference between Romani and Romanichal is? Do you know your clan name? What language do Gypsies even speak? I've asked you these things and you decide to ignore them and pretend I didn't ask because you're not Romani, you're not a Roma, you're a lying little shit.

@BluntSm0ker: " haha I can't stop laughing at her she said Latvia is Balkans hahahahahaha omg say no more idiot"
That awkward moment when you don't know where Latvia is.

"You probably never been out of Chicago"
*was born in Belgrade*
*has lived in ten different countries*

"We don't do no fucking clans"
You don't even know what a god damned clan is...and you claim to be Romani. This is like pretending to be a NASCAR racer but not having a driving license.

"In Latvia Gypsies are civilized unlike the Balkans Gypsies who sell their babies and live in cardboard boxes."
Well for starters, the Latvian Gypsies are the same people as the Balkans Gypsies but you didn't know that. We live in caravans, not cardboard boxes, but I doubt you know what a caravan is either. We don't sell babies, either, because that's illegal as fuck.

"I have family in Moscow don't tell me anything about Gypsies."
You don't have family in Moscow. You're from Oakland, for Christ sake.

"We don't call ourselves Romani it's romane."
Romane is not what we call ourselves, but you didn't know that because you're not one of us. You look Puerto Rican or Mexican, you live in Oakland, you claim to be a gangster who smokes, drinks, and shoots people. You're not a Gypsy.

"and wtf is Romanichal"
Ohhhhhh dear...this is painful. The person claiming to be Romanichal doesn't know what Romanichal is. This...this is some next level ignorance.

"Balkan bum shit"
*claims to be Balkan*
*doesn't know where Balkans is*

@BluntSm0ker: "I can't wait for the public to realize how dumb you are"
Yeah, I'm the dumb one, but you're the one who claims to be from a country he doesn't know where it is, not to mention is lying about his ethnicity and just PM'd me a string of gibberish chib he ran through Google Translate.

No city in America except for maybe Detroit is as trash ass as Oakland. There's nothing there but police brutality and heroin. Which is why you fit in.

"Mad about your own city being a shithole"
Which is funny because I don't live in Oakland like you do. I live in a city that, y'know, has people that live in it. Who aren't homeless junkies with needles in their arms.

"You're not White enough to be White but you wanna be"
Odd thing to say to someone who isn't White, and who doesn't want to be White, but I know you have to make things up and pretend they're true. Like you pretend you're Romani when you're not.

"Its funny you wish to be Serbian gypsy too"
I don't wish to be. I am. I doubt you can point to Serbia on a map.

"your Balkan gypsies are embarrassment to gypsies"
You're not a Gypsy though. While we're off living what you wish you could, you're sitting in Oakland California with a bottle of cheap ass whiskey in your hand smoking Mexican weed and talking about how you're a hardcore gangster who raps and shoots children.

That photo you posted is of Turks in Moldova, you realize that, right? Those aren't Gypsies. Those are Yakut Turks, and they're in Moldova. Oh wait, I forgot, you don't know where that is either.

@PissAndVinegar: Even if they WERE Gypsies, they're carrying a recycle cart. Recycling plastic jugs is a lot more productive than being a drunk ass stoner cocksucker who pretends to be a gangster and brags about how drinking, rapping, and shooting people is the only purpose to life.

@BluntSm0ker: "You put a book on here trying to prove something"
My comment was shorter than yours.

I already know where Latvia is, but you don't. And you haven't lived there either or you would know where it is.

"I talk to you in Gypsy and you can't even answer back"
Except I did answer back and you ignored it. But that's ok, you can just pretend really hard I didn't answer you and that'll make it come true. The language is called Chal, not Gypsy. But you didn't know that.

You didn't message me in Chal, you messaged me in Slovak by using Google Translate. Nice job, jackass, you chose the wrong language.

You straight up told me you're a gangabanger. You bragged about it for fuck's sake, and when I said "There's more to life than rapping, getting drunk, and shooting children" you said "That's what it's all about."

Choose a side. You keep switching between "You're not a Gypsy" and "You're a bum from Serbia because all Gypsies in Balkan countries are bums." Pick ONE. I can't be a bum Gypsy and a non-Gypsy at the same time.

Maybe if you knew where Serbia was, or if you knew Gypsies in Serbia (which apparently you don't because you posted a photo of Turks in Moldova) then you would know they aren't bums. But you don't, so you lie instead.

@JadedZombie: BluntSm0ker introduced himself to me and said he was a Roma like I am. I was excited to make his acquaintance. We were talking and enjoying a conversation when he told me I should come to Oakland to be a gangster who raps and gets drunk twenty four hours a day. When I criticized gangsters and said they kill innocent people, he told me I must be a KKK member for saying that. When I told him that makes no sense because being a KKK member has no relation to thinking gangsters are pieces of shit, he began telling me I'm not a real Gypsy and that he is. Despite multiple attempts to get him to show me any evidence of his ethnicity, he's either dodged every single question or he's answered with something completely false and made up. He doesn't know his own clan, he doesn't know where Latvia is but claims he lived there, he has no idea what Romani or Romanichal is, he says Gypsies call themselves "Rom" which is also a lie, he doesn't know his own Vitsa, he hasn't a clue what a caravan is, and he cannot name any holidays, myths, folktales, or traditions in Romani culture.

@JadedZombie: Yes, true, but I speak Hungarian fluently so I would assume the cognates would allow me to speak whatever Chal he is using too. It matters not, because he sent me a message claiming to be speaking in "Gypsy language" but was actually using Google Translate to type in Slovak, as you can see when you enter his sentence into a language detection software. It comes up solidly as Slovak, which I have already proven.
