Has anyone tried this?

Has anyone tried this? Does it matter that Google's search algorithm also takes into account search history and the interest graph?

When you have young black men practicing their "thug face", you may want to look at some base cultural problems.

Douglas McMillan, the same with young white girls practicing "duck face," I think.

Jason ON A bit less destructive, but yes. Vapid rather than violent.

How is practicing a face "destructive," Douglas McMillan? Lots of kids go through a phase where they emulate what they see in pop culture or on the street. That doesn't mean they're so-called "thugs" or inherently violent.

Jason ON A very large number seem to think gang culture is 'their culture', eschewing learning, community, etc. Practising looking like a thug is a minor symptom.

The media is not without blame in it either.

No, the local politicians who cut school funding and create a school to prison pipeline are the ones who are responsible for this.
