D-town babaaayy…

This morning was the best morning of my week.

I was walking down the hall, and glanced into a nearby classroom; I noticed one of my students and smiled in acknowledgment. He proceeded to stand up, in the middle of his teacher's lesson and declare…
“Yo Ms. D, yeaaah D-Dawg, represent D-town babaaayy…"

Now I am not sure how most responsible and civilized teachers would respond, but in that moment I chose “yeaaah git it”….


What does that even mean? I then realized that the teacher and the ENTIRE class was now staring at me, so to save myself I added , “sit yourself down”, and walked quickly away. I am now planning on avoiding that hallway, those students, and the staffroom for the remainder of the week.
