Holy crap, Hot August Nights dark side...
 

The first thing that comes to mind when I think of HAN is of course cars, booze, and babes asses (whet else is there?). I would have never of thought that this event is what some pimps and drug dealers look forward to for business.

It makes perfect sense now that I know what happens, I guess I just needed to open my eyes. But I had an awesome time last week and am glad that there were no major altercations (that I know of so far), and that the Reno PD was successful in the aprehension of 73 criminals.

It's a damn shame that you can't even ghostride your whip nowadays without the police stomping all over your buzz.

HAHA, omg I missed that. WTF hyphy?

Its basically ridin' dirty, and then getting out and dancing like a spaz, and then going back to ridin' dirty.

Haha, I like your definition better than the RGJ's... but I mean who comes up with this crap, and who makes up words like that? And what's worse, who actually makes this crap popular?! This reminds me of the wiggars thread.

Its supposed to be impromptu parties, where people get together on street corners and stuff and one guy pulls out a boom box and bumps it loud.

I guess its kinda cool if your in college or something, but not in the middle of the day and in the middle of the street.

And now you know. And knowing is half the battle!!!

But seriously, I would have never realized that either. Most other problems are clearly visible but with this one it would not show itself to people outside of those who encounter it head on.

Now you can get Hyphy and drink it too.

OMG, greatest post EVAR!!~ http://www.i-club.com/forums/images/smilies/rotfl.gif

I love ridin' dirty...

Me too, but I don't let her hear me call her that.

Ridin dirty, is that what they were talking about in that TLC song...No Scrubs?

As your lawyer, I suggest you read all 16 definitions.

I loathe HAN and street vibrations every year. The ER is a mockery, and so is town. On my short drive home from StMary's, I passed three separate fights/ screaming contests, got pushed aroung by some Caprice full of thugs, and practically swerved off the road by a 55 chevy who was looking at fat chicks on Arlington. I just don't get how it's worth it to the City of Reno to have this go on, seems like they spend more in police staffing than they take in.
Street Vibes? Oh my god.....don't have a medical emergency during this one. If you do, go to Washoe South Meadows, the downtown hospitals will be full of asshattery of all sorts. I thankfully will be finishing my ER career8/12, before it returns. it is a true patience exercise every year. "of course you don't feel good. You came up from sea level and have been boozing in and out of casinos for 24hrs straight. You passed out and crashed, sir"

So you dislike HAN in it's entirety because of the dumb things people do to get themselves in the ER?

OHHH I see now, 10 and 12 are the same though....damn urbanite dictionary contributors! My driveway is dirt...I ride dirty every day! When I am not loadin my gak of course.

WTF is a "gak"?

From the urban dictionary:
"A popular Nickolodeon slime, available in many variations such as glow in the dark, speckled, cocoanut smelling, etc. Useful for making fart noises, grossing out friends or as sexual lubricant.

Sweetie, we ran out of KY gelly, go get some of your step daughter's Gak."

Perhaps he meant gat?

BTW, did it take many of you a long time to get home on Friday? It took me an HOUR to get from Kietzke/Virginia to N McCarran. Normal driving asses + 800,000 visitors + dumbass hit and run blocking both directions of 395 = fffffffffffffffuck!

White people... :rolleyes: :lol:

It's GAT. As in, a hand-held firearm, or pistol.

Not specifically, just the general havoc they wreak on town for the long period of time they're here. It affects almost every aspect of life the whole darn month.

It certainly does affect almost everyone in Reno, but I guess some just have such a love for the cars that they don't mind it. Personally I love driving around during the HAN week and seeing a classic car almost everywhere I look. But then again, like most, I haven't directly dealt with the negative affects that it has on the city. Well except the traffic. Fookin traffic.

Now that is a use I would never have imagined! :lol:

Yeah, no shit. I went out with a friend last weekend and I thought it was in compton.

Ok I just heard this and about rolled off the couch!
