i actually thought that there was a 7 year old gang member on his tv. is blood a new slang for beef or something?

[–] vrek@programming.dev 26 points 3 months ago (4 children)

I think it's "a 7 year old" "blood walking" ... Back in the day it used to be "crypt walking" and the bloods and crypts were rival gangs.

Anyway blood/crypt walking is a "dance". Think of it like almost a jig or skanking but gangster style.

It's my headcanon that crips are necromancers now.

It doesn't mean gang member?

[–] obre@lemmy.world 9 points 3 months ago (2 children)

It does, but in this context it's a style of dance associated with the gangs (blood walking), rather than the 7yo

The gangs really need to hyphenate more.

Ohhhhh, I remember the crip walk from when I was younger in the early 00s but never heard of the blood walk.
