A social gathering from the past (it lasted at least to the 1960s and early 70s) where the people (usually black Americans) ate chitlins (chitterlings) and cole slaw. Red Rooster hot sauce was available to go on them. Most of the time you could get only one serving, and it always seemed at these times that the chitlins tasted extra good. The chitlin supper had to be given by a reputable individual though because it was often said: "You don't eat everybody's chitlins."
The usher read the announcement: "Martha Johnson will be having a Chitlin Supper this Saturday night to raise money for the church anniversary."

A phrase made popular by black males (usually from the south) who meant to say, for example: We all were geared up and ready to go. Instead they would say, "we all were geeked up and ready to go." This is the truth.

A word used by some black southerners long ago, (and sometimes still used today by old timers) often in a loving casual way to denote the reason for some action one may have taken or didn't take.
"Oh I know she owes me a little money, but I couldn't say nothing about that, beese she walked way over here and had so much trouble finding me. You know what I'm saying?" "It would be so ugly to bring that up."
