Just keep in mind most mobsters don't talk like they're a character from The Sopranos and A LOT of these terms aren't used. Many real mobsters have spoken out about The Sopranos and state that it is more entertaining than accurate so I HEAVILY advise people to look away from The Sopranos when looking for accurate inspiration into LCN rp. But don't keep me away from your Gabagool, great guide nonetheless.

1: The Sopranos is set in New Jersey, a completely different city with different slang such as the infamous ‘gabagool’ meme. 
2: The Sopranos had real mobster consultants and although was stereotypical, that was the whole entire point as it’s an American sub culture that’s glorified.
3: Most of these terms can be used depending on the context whether it is serious or sarcastic.

A lot of these are unused and irrelevant in the modern LCN due to the fact of how publicized by the media and by pop culture most of these terms are. A perfect example of how outdated they are is that nobody "makes their bones" anymore in order to get made.

The term “make your bones” is a sarcastic one at best. Just because most of this terminology is shown in pop culture doesn’t entirely rule it out as fictional because a lot of people in that life ended up giving their inside knowledge to the media.

I will say, a lot of the terms in this guide are extremely outdated and are Hollywood based. Not a huge fan of this guide to accurately depict modern day LCN.

Whoever originally wrote this thread should be permanently blacklisted from creating an LCN faction on this server.
