Overheard in New York

I started teaching today in Brooklyn. It's going to take a little while to get used to the students here. I'm still expecting them to squat for me....
Here are some things I've overheard while doing demo lessons and observing classes in the past few weeks:

A female teacher's aid tries to tell a female student to stop talking and she replies:
"You just mad because you got a big ass moustache on your face. You need to shave that shit. Yo Tanya, don't she got a big ass moustache on her face?"

Answering a question on the Aztec empire a student says "Uh, is that Chilupa?" Another student pipes in: "Wrong! Chilupa's a fucking mexican food, aaashole."
