Gotta love those wannabes stepping out of a '95 Taurus with brand new Ray Bans. Makes you wonder why do they always look around when they do so... also how many paychecks are they sporting over their eyes as they do so.
Stop telling me about that trust fund and get me two more Big Macs, you wannabe

Usually can be seen in high schools wearing expensive clothing, and wearing pants that show their whole ass, also can be seen smoking weed, throwing gang signs, being a complete douchebag to other people minding their own business, doing very poorly in school and wanting to fight anybody that ticks them off in the slightest manner. Wannabe gangsters are only friends with their own group of other wannabe gangsters and only attract hoes..
