hearing and using it is ridiculous. Just because you can’t or don’t want to understand something doesn’t mean it doesn’t make sense or isn’t real. And if y’all hate AAVE so much, drop all of that “tiktok” and “twitter” slang. Because guess where it comes from? AAVE. You guys misuse the fuck out of it anyways.
