But for real though what geometric sequences or scientific method can be used to explain the infamous crip walk.

Slang is usually mixed with a particular group and plays a role in constructing our identities. While slang outlines social space, attitudes about slang partly construct group identity and identify individuals as members of groups. Therefore, using the slang of a particular group will associate an individual with that group.

Using Silverstein's notion of different orders of indexicality, it can be said that a slang term can be a second-order index to this particular group. Employing a slang term, however, can also give an individual the qualities associated with the term's group of origin, whether or not the individual is actually trying to identify as a member of the group. This allocation of qualities based on abstract group association is known as third-order indexicality.

Obvious trolling, as I suspected.

Thought I’d give the OP the benefit of the doubt. Unfortunately, any benefit of my doing so is doubtful.
