[paintballkid0206]

...so I painted my shoes. I'm going for a new look anyway, i no longer liked how plain they looked... so i splattered them. it was GREAT fun. I had some acrylic paint layin around the house and i had an old thothbrush (my friends mom is a painter. thats what she uses) and it actually worked great. I'm still debating whether to put more colors on. and the blue n orange one needs more paint. there's a few bald spots. so i gots new shoes to wear on the first day of school tomorrow!

Etymology

Traditionally, crunk meant a hoarse, harsh cry.[2] The term is often used as slang to mean intoxicated. Folk etymology suggests the modern usage of crunk originated as a portmanteau of the words "crazy" and "drunk" or having been "cranked up" to a level of excitability at which one becomes "crunk". But it is also defined as being drunk and high at the same time being a portmanteau of "drunk" and the slang for marijuana, "chronic." However, Rapper Lil Jon defined crunk as a "state of heightened excitement" to make it sound like a more commercial feeling.

The first known use of the word "crunk" was in 1972 by Dr. Seuss in his book Marvin K. Mooney Will You Please Go Now!

Webster's Dictionary defines "crunk" as a "word of fluctuating meaning used during the 1990s in lyrics of the rap groups OutKast and Lil Jon & The East Side Boyz, a style of Southern rap music featuring repetitive chants and rapid dance rhythms."[1]


[Streets of Miami, Fl] in the late 80's and early 90's, was used as a term for being high on cocaine. crunked up and crunk meaning cocaine itself hence the Atlanta rap term meaning "state of heightened excitement" similar to how one feels on cocaine.
