That's Not a Homie!
Coming out of a restaurant at lunch today, I spotted a gumball machine with Homies Series 8 in it. I decided to splurge $0.50 and start my collection of toys that reinforce racial stereotypes. I excitedly tore open the little plastic ball, dreaming of an afternoon of re-enacting all of the great gang battles I learned about on the history channel when, much to my chagrin, I discovered I got this instead:
That is not a Homie. That's a fucking redneck. Although it sort of fits in my racial stereotype theme, I was nonetheless greatly disappointed. I made some attempt to use him to re-create all my favorite scenes from the Warriors but ultimately failed since he doesn't match any of the gang profiles from the movie. I finally resigned myself to using him as the subject in my Queer Eye for the Redneck Guy: Cubicle Edition.
