All my weeks are hard, with no exceptions. Every day I wake up hoping for the end of my pains. But, that never happens. Everything I do, is useless. I am tired of this very life and this world. I know I am pathetic and I wish I were not, but I am too tired to not be pathetic.
Hey uh, this uses AAVE and thus is cultural appropriation. We suggest trying not to use memes and language like this in the future as it’s disrespectful to black people, especially those living in america. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Habitual_be
“Sometimes it be like that” has become an Internet culture/meme phrase that everyone uses regardless of culture or race.
We’ll make you a deal. As soon as people stop making fun of actual AAVE and it’s allowed in test papers and homework in all schools, at least in america etc, we’ll stop saying this.
Until then we’ll keep pointing it out as white people love taking things that aren’t theirs, not understanding the meaning and changing it to fit their own desires, whilst showing zero respect or reverence to the culture it came from.
I don’t know that this counts as disrespectful, so much as the custom of English to change and adapt on exposure to anything.
At best it could be called informal, which is in line with its source material (the meme)
Okay, then, show us the places in America actual AAVE isn’t looked down on or made fun of, and allowed in school in tests and homework by white people.
We’ll wait.
And you’ll be waiting a long time. I won’t lie and tell you that AAVE is not looked down on by many, but I also won’t tell you that other vernaculars are accepted as The Englishtm.
Yinz accepted even outside its provincial origin, but is still disallowed in tests/essays and other formal applications as a consequence of being vernacular.
