Ghettoplex 

A nickname for the only privately owned movie theater in Manassas, VA. The seats are torn, the screen is flimsy, and the film is scratched. They also don't re-stock their candy very often.

But $4.50 Thursdays are great!
Man, I don't want to pay $10.00 at the AMC, let's go to the Ghettoplex instead!

Ghettonese 

A dialect of English spoken in the rougher neighborhoods of the US. It forgoes tenses, and adds the word "be" where it doesn't belong.

Not to be confused with hoodrat.
"Sometimes it be the ones who doesn't go to school who struggle as a kid in English class and have to learn to speak ghettonese"
