* ( This blog is not new, but an interesting read that I created and has been popping up on random people's pages and I thought i'd share it )

To live the life of a gangster, not always the best life to live. However along with gangster-ism comes several different perks... Not many ppl give you a hard time. You're always recognized and given respect when you come into a room. Eyes focus on you as you walk thru a crowded area. Some out of fear, others out of curiosity.

To be gangster, One can act gangster all they want, Gangsters arent' violent, they don't go around starting shit with ppl or act all loud. However there are several different versions of being gangsters. Here are a few examples of the gangsters I've seen around.

1. The lone gangster- This guy/gal is always around. Usually never saying a word, always peering around, sometimes staring at ppl to get recognized. These are the ones you question why they come to the bar. They are scopers.. They're there to check out what's going on. Constantly on the phone acting important.

2. The Gotti boy gangster- These guys are always amusing to look at. Usually flamboyant, dressed in high dollar attire, Gold chains and wearing tinted sunglasses at night. Typically surrounded by several other guys who appear to look the same. Focused on one thing, and that's getting the girl. The number contest is on.

3. The Gangster gangster- These guys have seen way too many movies, and live a cinema life. Typically they have a wrap sheet longer than my arm. They tend to act out to impress their friends and always do stuff to have stories told about them later. Lifespan of these guys usually isn't too long, because they tend to piss off the wrong person, usually the wanna be gangster.

4. The Thug Nation gangster- You've seen these guys at the bar and clubs all the time. They tend to come in together and sometimes making a loud introduction. You can't help but notice these guys... They're always at the bar. Typically these guys can be recognized with a "chin up" The "chin up " is the way certain ppl recognize each other's presence. You've seen each other around, but don't know each other except at the bar. These guys are good ppl and will recognize if you need additional force.

5. The Wannabe gangster- Again, cinema life.. These guys are dangerous and usually you want to avoid them. They're willing to do anything to get accepted and that usually means trouble. They tend to tag along and are always around the Gangster gangster. All they want is to be respected and will do anything to live the life, even if its for only a few minutes. Typically all that surrounds these types is nothing but drama. These are the worst of the worst, they are trash and are concidered the cockroach of the lifestyle.

6. The True gangster- These guys are the real deal. These guys grew up fists to face, earning the reputation that follows them around throughout the up and coming generations of ppl. These guys are quiet, they get respect from all angles. Ppl coming up to say hi and hang out for a few, It's always a good time being around these guys. They don't act out, they're reserved, and typically give looks to let you know whats up. These are the ppl you really don't mess with. All other gangster types look up to these guys. Messing with these ppl usually isn't good. It may not happen right there at that moment, but rest assured, you will be dealt with when you least expect it.

Live your life as you see fit, Have a good time when you are out. Don't start trouble with people you don't know. You never know what type of gangster you might come across.
