As far as I know, this is the original - I've also seen another version
which differs very slightly:

Subject: REMINDER: GHETTO PARTY TONIGHT, 10 PM
GHETTO PARTY
8/2 (tonight) 10 PM
3RD EAST, DEEP WALCOTT
KFC, malt liquor, and boxed wine. 40'S, hubcaps, and trashcan fires.
BLING making (bring your old HEAs), littering, and rap.
And after you pass out from all the 40s, you can rest up in the walcott
lounge tent-city - designed to look and feel like those dirty places where real
poor people live.
And heed our manifesto:
1. Litter frequently. Walcott is not a place for pussies or for clean
people. Ghettos are not clean. Walcott as is is way too clean. If you
find empty bottles (ideally 40s), hubcaps, or oil barrels, toss them into
the hallway. If you are unsure about where to litter, litter in mikey p's
room.
2. Graffitti is encouraged. Think your roommates (or mikeyp's) wall
looks to clean? Fix the problem.
3. Loud music is key. Rap will be played at an acceptable (read, really
fucking loud) volume. If your neighbors ask you to turn it down, threaten
them with physical violence.
4. Ass slapping is essential. If someone slaps your ass, reciprocate.
Do not take ass slapping as a sign of sexual harassment or hazing - it is
important to your well being on walcott.
5. Steal stuff from other areas of the hall. Do you need an extra
computer and the ones on reuse won't cut it? I hear mattxmal has a good
computer. He wont miss it - and if he does, we will fuck him up real bad
when he tries to take it back. If you steal something from somebody and
they accuse you of doing so, threaten them with physical violence.
Actually, just threaten everyone with physical violence.
6. Fried Chicken, 40's, Cheap Lawn chairs. Hells yeah.
peace out,
walcott niggas fo life
