[quote=Anonymous]There are few things more annoying than white people who don't know how to use slang properly. The woman asked you a direct question and stated that she thought you were casually dressed. That is not shade. It might be annoying or rude, but it is not shade. Shade is subtle, not actually stated. If she had remarked "I prefer to dress professionally, but your jeans are nice," THAT would be shade. That sentence implies, without saying, that she thinks you are sloppy. It requires an inference and is even extra shady because it is masked as a compliment. Understand? Now, go forth and use the term properly.[/quote]
