Aside: "good-paying jobs" grates on my grammar nerve for some reason.

seriously, though... I mean I don't care if it's "well" or "good" in any prescriptive sense but it's a weird slip.
-
H-Rod does not "slip". This was focus grouped, believe me.
-
like you mean they chose "good-paying" (I feel grodies) as a thing cos ppl said it was good?
-
Hang on! I think I cracked it! I'm British/Cypriot English-speaking so not always clued but is "good-paying" AAVE? If so...
-
then it's 100% legit to say and so perhaps she wants to court AAVEs-speakers ergo African Americans??
-
so yeah TURBO cunning especially since in the US AAVE correlates strongly with low pay (because racism etc).
-
did I get it right?

-
I have no idea.
