1. In
USA, "block"
mean city block, 'hood, smallest area surrounded by streets.
2. In Central/Eastern Europe, Poland, post-DRG Germany &
France, "block" is fuckin' HUGE apartment bulding made of concrete panels, where people live like rats in cages. Worst muthafuckin ghetto you can imagine.
1. Wudup man, what'
s the news on the block bro?
2. Oh

go downstairs through 20 floors.
