All Inclusive Fetes or Ghetto Fetes!
I love the mixture of fetes. I am not the type to go to the All Inclusive fetes, exclusively for carnival. I love my ghetto ones too. Which do you prefer and why?

I am home to enjoy myself. With that said safety is first.. There are some elements in the "Ghetto Fete" as termed here which I personally don't want to focus on controlling and in some cases can't even if I wanted to. Packing does not lend itself to such a diverse wardrode to support attending such events. Besides, the crew's just not having it.

I like a mixed crowd. I cant stand those social stand up and stare yuppies. I think some people were just raised in sheltered environments so they think cetain fetes ghetto. Its like some of my suburban raised caucasian co-workers, anything within 15-20 of NYC is de ghetto. Closed minded people. I love seeing those yuppie gangstas though.

Agreed! give me Customs cause you can wine down to the ground and nobody lookin at you like you did something wrong. However, I do like a couple of those all-inclusive fetes. I like dressing up REAL nice for them and profilin'.
I guess I like both kinds of fetes.... I have never been to Brass, but I have heard about it and I am not sure if that is me |
