ghetto grief

The practice of making unorthodox memorials to the recently deceased, like airbrushed t-shirts featuring the likeness of the dead or MySpace tribute profiles featuring lots of animated images and bad original music. So named because the people who do this sort of thing often belong to a very specific socioeconomic segment.

Did you see Keesha's family on BART last night? They're all wearing those ghetto grief shirts from her cousin Shontaine's funeral.
