Blackademics Do the Dozens

Blackademic A: Your mother is morbidly obese.
Blackademic B: Really? Although my mother and I are quite close, I was not aware of that. How morbidly obese is she?
Blackademic A: Ah, now that’s an excellent question; I’m so glad you asked that. Your mother is so morbidly obese, or “fat” if you would, that apparently she jumped out a window and was stuck in midair. Apparently.
Blackademic B: You don’t say. My mother?
Blackademic A: Well, that is what I was told. Although I do admit, if she is so obese one wonders how she could of managed to “jump” at all.
Blackademic B: Indeed. Also, assuming that my mother is so horribly obese, so incredibly heavy that her girth distorts the very laws of gravity in its wake, one wonders how she could have managed to fit out of the afore mentioned window in the first place. And again, I see my mother quite regularly and I must admit that I never noticed she had an eating disorder. But it is possible that I’m too close to the subject to make an objective observation.
Blackademic A: That would seem to be the most logical explanation. Perhaps you could repeat the experiment, when the opportunity presents itself.
Blackademic B: Perhaps.

I don't get it.
Hey, remember the expression "no honks," meaning "don`t even think about asking me for half of my butterscotch tastycake." Is that the right expression? Is that expression used outside of Philly? Anymore?
I asked because the first time I ever heard what I later knew to be the dozens, one guy said to the other; "I saw yo mom coming down the street with two trash cans saying, `no honks.`
Dude, we grew up together and I don't even remember that word. Although it is linguistic brilliance.
And I can understand your mother's reticence, for if she is providing the considerable labor of carrying two full trash cans, she should recieve the full benefits of that labor.
That word was universal though the first usage I heard was from a my generations representative of the Mt. Airy Snopes family who were stricly pre "wigger" and whose name you know well.
Still I wonder its origin. Perhaps the noise of a car that is trying to get your attention.
When I saw this I thought of those two chipmonks on the old Bugs Bunny cartoons--the ones who spoke so veddy proper English? This would made for a good skit on "In Living Color" back in the day...
Hilarious...

Mat, this skit had me rolling! Well, as much as one can "roll" when one is working at Homeland Security and your supervisor is sitting right next to you. Man, I almost had tears running down my face!
LOL
It reminds me of something I used to do back in the 90s. I would take really offensive rap lyrics, and Id sing them Sinatra style. Yeah, that was also done by comedians, but dammit I did it first!
LOL
