Guyman, G, G man, g guy, the elusive g spot. Now that I have your attention.... Laughing

I see these lads throw out stuff like 'wat up G.' How often are they referring to guyman and how often are they referring to the Americanism of G = Gangster?

I am assuming these guys use it as the term for guyman due to the definition:

Quote:

A slang depicting a person (usually male), that is reputed to be quite cunning. (Can also be written as guy-man)

Example
You think say you be correct guy-man?

The confusion for me comes in with the fact that American culture is wide spread. So I do have to wonder if G is the guy man or a gangster now.

Opinions?

Depends.
Personally, I will always ask the lad what the hell he means by that - one email sent, one email gained - time not spent on the real vic.
When I use the "G-word", it almost always means Goat"forker" Laughing

^ When you ask your lad 'what do you mean' are you playing a mugu/client or are you playing a fellow scammer?

My reason for asking is I am working on my 'guyman' impersonation tactics as I go out and look for a new lad. If I am playing a lad I am not sure if I would want to ask them what they mean by an unfamiliar term.

I would suggest your basic 'how far?' or 'how e be u?' in your initial "lad" to lad conversations.

I worked with a younger American born, Nigerian raised and educated person that would use the "G" term. He would even refer to me as "OG" as in original gangster. Its been years since I've heard the term used here in the US.

I had a scammer tell me after his 5th trip to the Western Union office that I was too small to get it past her G spot.

Edit grammar.

G Spot

I just usually play dumb (=myself).
When I get bored, I just bombard the lad with a load of questions - since I am the potential victim.

I've never really tried the "G-game" while playing big dolla choppa, maybe I should...

When impersonating lads, being bloody ignorant is a good tactic, even for realtime chats. If he says something in such impenetrable pidgin that you really don't know what he's on about, just ignore it and ask him a question about something else. Often he will translate without prompting as he repeats the question in simpler language in case you didn't get it the first time, or you can go back afterwards and analyse it in context for future reference.

^ Pastor Gomer Reah. Patron saint of tender and swollen feelings. I hope this helps. Laughing

@ Connie: Thank you. This helps somewhat. My main concern was knowing if the lad was thinking he was some sort of smooth talker or a super cool criminal gangster with spinny rims on his cheap car.

@ Nailgunner: business as usual. Pretending to be in the know and then going back afterwards trying to analyze what the hell just happened. I have done that more than once at this point. Laughing

Probably both!

Since the question has been answered and Joker originally brought up the elusive G spot I think some primary school humour is in order.

This scammer had this hole dug for this photo.

Now I get it! Awhile ago, Robert Meuller was threatening to have me arrested and I wrote back, saying "Please Mr. G-man, don't arrest me!"

He got irate at that and I didn't understand why since I was just using a line from an old gangster movie and it meant "Government man".

Thanks for clearing that up.

OH, and nice pics Connie. Laughing
