City Yo Capitol Hill Raps

onToday’s PI has a report on Pine Street redevelopment.
Erica C. Barnett did a bang up job on the story a few weeks ago.
The PI’s front-page local section headline announces in the print edition: “Condos soon will replace a bit of funky, counterculture Seattle.”
Funky? You gots that right, yo.

Funky like your grandpas drawers, dont test me / We in like that, you're dead like Presley
I haven't been down to the Cha Cha in a long while, but I think they got the sign wrong.
It's not:
"If you are:
-Racist
-Sexist
-Homophobic
-Or an asshole
Do not come in."

The "or" is dumb. C'mon, P-I, get it right!
A search in the P-I's archives reveals 773 articles with the word "funky" since 1999. A search of the Stranger's site, 2,010 instances since whenever (including classifieds and forums).
This reminds me, I need to take advantage of Bimbo's while they are still around.
Yeah, if you like fuckin' sunflower seeds in your "buh-ree-toe" I guess.
"Funky" can just go to hell. It's the REAL F-Bomb.
'funky' is best used as an insult these days.
Matthew, actually, the sign does say "Or." See http://www.flickr.com/photos/16387018@N00/328773857/
Ooooh, busted!
This is a great!
