Where the fuck do gypsies get their money?
 
Saw an episode of My Big Fat Gypsy Wedding last night for the first time. What. The. Fuck. Scrap metal? Drugs? Cons? Welfare? Hiding their income from the gov't? They don't even have two incomes so wtf.


Also their slooty chicks are a-maaaazingly skanky.

i don't know how so many low income/no income families get by, but they pull it off. i think it's alot easier in the UK to get gov't help though

Campaign donations from corporate sponsors.

Many of these people can't manage their finances, rack up huge debt, get declared bankrupt, get help from the government to get back on their feet, and repeat the fucking process.

It's unreal.

They steal copper pipes etc from buildings awaiting demolition. They often expose themselves to asbestos in the process.

Kahlo 06-18-2011 11:02 AM

They also steal copper from train lines causing me delays - the bastards. I also hear they steal first born children and drink their blood. Or is that someone else?

duovamp 06-18-2011 11:46 AM

Little of column A, little of column B.

They get it from the pockets of their solicitors, either knowingly or unknowingly.

We have a huge Irish Traveler group in our neighborhood and the adjoining one across the loop. They go to our church and can be pretty obnoxious, dressing like they're going clubbing, pushing eachother down and fighting during church. They bought out two trailer parks in the suburb just east of us across the loop and they are the nicest looking trailer parks I've ever seen.

I'd like to explain just what observations I've taken from them but I don't want anyone calling me out about it. From what interactions I've had with them at church and in our neighborhood (a group (8 or 9 girls) of girls 9-13 or so just walk around the shopping centers (anywhere from 6-11pm) darting in and out of traffic, going to the restaurants and leaving without paying etc.) the show doesn't appear to be too off base. All the local shops have signs that say no unaccompanied minors allowed and they're pretty vocal about their displeasure with them.

Here's an article about the ones in our neighborhood.

I write the Daily Mail. Incoherent post-bad-day rant sent back from whence it came.

:erm:

:Stupid:

Ihaguitar 06-18-2011 03:06 PM

Damn I missed it.

whywontyoulistn 06-18-2011 03:15 PM

It wasn't much, just imagine an overtired Hitler when he wasn't getting any from his cousin.

Edit: it just dawned on me that I was listening to different versions of Owata throughout this.

dean_r_koontz 06-18-2011 05:25 PM

mostly scrounging.

Dead Frequency 06-18-2011 06:04 PM

Lol @ church

The Jesus 06-18-2011 06:06 PM

Stealing and selling children.

Dead Frequency 06-18-2011 07:55 PM

And dude, please, gypsy is not the preferred nomenclature.

MyOneAndOnly 06-18-2011 08:00 PM

Holy shit I think I saw that house outside of Toronto last month. Driving through a neighborhood out in the burbs full of India people. They like shit like that.

Gypos, tinkers, pikeys...

Starla 06-19-2011 12:07 AM

I don't understand how they claim high moral standars with no dating or premarital sex but dress like whores.

TuralyonW3 06-19-2011 12:18 AM

too bad more gypsies aren't like this:

TuralyonW3 06-19-2011 12:19 AM

food for thought:

everyone pretty much says "gyped" as in "I got gyped" without realizing it's a pretty offensive term.

duovamp 06-19-2011 01:32 AM

Yeah why do they act like New Jersey guidos?

duovamp 06-19-2011 01:32 AM

I had absolutely no idea this entire class existed until Friday btw.

bahnzah 06-19-2011 01:39 AM

duovamp 06-19-2011 01:48 AM

Okay, DAD.

bahnzah 06-19-2011 01:57 AM
