One possibility of where boogie and honkey come from could be white people who wanted to make money selling real estate further out from the city's core needed a boogeyman, something that would get people to leave. They start to convince other white people that these guys with the darker skin, puffer hair, and bigger dicks are the scariest people they've ever seen, and start calling them boogies (even though they dont really do anything any more disturbing than white people). When the same white people come back to buy drugs, they honk their horns to let people know they're outside, so they get called honkeys. There could be a different reason for the names though.
You dont hear as much about some of the in house violence that people pointed a finger at another group for when it was convenient, people seemed to think the crime rate was all coming from somewhere else, the group they called the other side. Where did boogie/honkey really come from?

There's a lot of times people from a distant group of people, a group of people from another continent for example, think of all people from another continent as being the same because they look similar. For example treating all white people like they are British colonists or Nazis is as ignorant as treating all black people as Muslims, or treating all Asians as Chinese. In some African countries there are hundreds of ethnic groups, too many to count, so thinking that two people would be allies because their skin is darker is a lot like thinking that everyone with fair skin are allies because they both have fair skin in life, instead of going on an individual basis (since most people don't have time to process all this stuff on an individual basis on a daily basis).
Thinking that a group of people looking alike, or similar, means that they are alike or the same is ignorant. Not all groups of Europeans colonized foreign lands and owned/whipped slaves, for example, so calling someone a cracker because they have fair skin is ignorant. When was the last time you met a Russian family that owned black slaves hundreds of years ago. It's a lot like saying that all black people/Africans descended from slaves, or all Asians eat/like Chinese food and are kung fu masters, which is ignorant and irritating at the same time.

A goofus often dedicates every minute of every day to being a gangster or something similar (and usually thinks other people live the same way as them, or wants to be the same thing as them).
He/she spent his/her entire life trying to pull the strings of other people who were were too uptight to be in that life only gangsters knew. He/she was good enough at it, you wouldn't even think he/she was ever a goofus.

If there is a god, humans sure are not in the form of god. Animals and plants are closer to the form of god, animals really dont mean each other (or humans) harm. People say they dont mean any harm, but theres really no such thing as a person who doesnt mean any harm. Meaning harm is universally human (being inhuman is universally human). What would there be guns for if people really didnt mean harm (including the gun someone plans to use as self defense against somebody else who means them or their family harm)?
Animals dont have bibles, animals dont have guns, so humans must have created god from some sense of guilt, since animals and plants dont seem to need a god, the sun is good enough for them.

Living in a place where buses, trains, and supply lines don't run. When someone says you're on your own now Jack it's because you really are, even if your name is not really Jack.
Christy-Damn that's a nasty cut on your arm Jack, aren't you gonna go to the doctor and have them take a look at it? Oh yea, what was I thinking there's never been any buses or cabs out here off the grid.
Phil- You never cared that my name is not Jack or that I'm gonna die from this cut soon. You are the doctor god dammit I hope you know what you're doing!

Trying to set somebody who's already straight straight is like trying to drive somebody who's already crazy crazy, it doesn't work.
Start by setting yourself straight and being concerned about your own life, its less futile than always trying to set the world straight. The people who try to set the most people straight are usually the people in most need of being set straight, since they usually never got set straight by their own fathers (or mothers) with an ass whooping every now and then.

A girl who regurgitates everything her sibling says her entire life, then claims to be her own role model.
Lindsay was unoriginal, plain, and full of shit, but knew that more money could be made by building up her own image.
