Monday funny

A discussion in my fourth-block class today about "grills." Nope, not talking about the kind Lair Simon cooks his scallops and asparagus on. Nor am I talking about the kind that graces the front of your car. A "grill," it seems, according to Urban Dictionary is:

1. grill (aka: fronts, and golds or any variation thereof)

dental jewelry.

Examples -- "My grill's krunk." Or... "I gots to polish my fronts, ahh snap!" Or... "show dem golds."

We were discussing the fact that a particular rapper was sporting a snazzy grill in a new video. I asked them if they were going to get a grill, themselves.

"Are you kiddin'?" Dominique said. "You know how much jus' one toof cos'?"

I shook my head. "No. How much?"

"A lot."
