I’m sitting here watching 30 Rock on Netflix when it hits me…”THANK GOD NIGGAS DON”T KNOW ABOUT COLORWARE!”
What’s colorware you ask? Colorwarepc.com is a business based in the personalizing of personal electronics. Iphones *3G and 3GS models*, Blackberry Curve/Bold/Tour, Ipod docks, PS3 *slim and regular* Xbox 360s and controllers, etc. Their gadget list is 22 items deep, so there’s pretty much something there for everyone.
But imagine if Soulja Boy knew that he could get his PS3 colored pink? You better believe that shit would show up on his next Youtube video (for the record, he may already know but I don’t pay attention to that fuck so who knows). And the regular everyday cornball ass niggas that STRIVE to say “yeah, I got that..but mine got colorwared!” I swear, niggas would be calling and emailing Colorware trying to get EVERYTHING dipped in the nifty polymer goodness. Thank God they don’t do Nextel phones..cuz it would get UGLY in the hood.
It would make me SO fucking sad if “Colorwared” became the newest of the new in nigga slang.
As a geek, I really dig the fact that someone took the time and patience to perfect some shit to make my gadgets even more geeky..I approve. But sure enough, the masses take something from a subculture, make it mainstream…and fuck it ALL to hell. See: tabletop/mmo slang, internet geek/nerd slang, and something I’ve noticed a lot more lately: a smattering of arcade rat/fighting game enthusiast slang popping up in every day conversations. Shit is hilarious to someone that did NOT pick it up off Best of the Web or Tosh 2.0 because they thought it was cool that’s why it made it on TV. Here’s a link so y’all can see how fucking Pringles that Colorware shit is:
BONG!
