Blackfire

Def 1: When someone from the ghetto is about to do something suggestable or regrettable but is believed by others, to be highly probable of failing. Used in place of the word "backfire".

Ex 1:

Guy 1:"Yo dawg, you heard Tyrone is gonna steal Shanel's weave and give it to Tracy?"
Guy2:"Shiiiiit... that's probably gonna blackfire."

Guy 1: "I heard you was thinking bout taking the day off work and spending it with Tracy."
Guy 2: "Yea, we wuz just gonna chill at the crib."

Guy 2: "Man, he won't do shyt."
Guy1: "You gon be saying that after you jobless and Tracyless; that shits gonna blackfire."

Blackfired

When a non-Black person attempts to do something to or with Black people and the attempt back fires on them.

The attempt often times has friendly intentions, but can still go bad.

Coined by two students in an UNLV World Literature class.

White person: Wuz up my nig?

Black person: Aw hell no! He did not just say that!

White person: That blackfired on me.
