I went to Dollar General and I could hear this woman talking in the next aisle. She was complaining about the last time she had been there and how one of the clerks had treated her and how she was prepared to handle it this time. She says 'If it happens again I'm going to act ghetto. If they're going to act ghetto with me, I'll act ghetto with them." Her friend was trying to tell her to "be cool, be cool," but she was getting herself all worked up and continued her rant. You could hear her in half the store probably. Anyway, she says "Matter of fact. I won't act ghetto, I'll be ghetto. There won't be any acting."
I thought that was a great line. Of course I wound up in line behind her and got to see the whole thing which turned out to be her trying to buy a washcloth that didn't have a price tag and the clerk couldn't sell it to her based just on what she said the price was. They involved two other clerks in it until finally one went and found one with a tag to scan.
Still, whatever you're going to do, don't act it, be it.
