Lazy Monday
Time for another edition of random thoughts from an office somewhere in Washington, DC.
Relax yourself girl, please settle down.
-I think Flavor of Love is the best show on television right now. This show has jumped from guilty pleasure to the show I want to call everybody and tell them to watch. I’m going to be sad to see it end. Is it ignorance personified? Yes. Is it further proof that there are at least 10 women in the world with absolutely NO other purpose than to be video hoes? Hell yes. Did Punkin deserve to get molly-the-fuck-wopped for spitting torpedo style on New York? Without a doubt. It’s been said before, but this is The Black Bachelor. There is nothing cookie cutter about this show. Flavor Flaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaav! He is my choice for man of the year!
-I’d also like to go on the record and admit that I watch Grey’s Anatomy. Every Sunday. I tried to avoid it but my younger sister got me hooked. And I’d like to slap the monkey shine shit out of Meredith for using poor George like she did. She is an assmonkey and should be given the heeby jeeby’s and the Bee Gee’s for her actions. If you don’t know what I’m talking about, watch the show.
-I just checked CNN.com and it appears that Justice Antonin Scalia has become the newest spokesman for the gun-toting NRA nuts out there. I’m well aware that everybody in the NRA isn’t just itching to shoot something every 10 seconds. However, I’ve also read one of the NRA’s monthly magazine. Talk about totally misguided people. There was even a quote that stated there was proof that the more people owned personal handguns, the less crime occurred. I’d like to see the study that made a positive correlation between those two things. I’m not saying it isn’t possible, but it sounds to me like one of those instances of making the stats fit the position. Kind of like Ice Hockey in Hong Kong…only not at all.
Anyway, this is what Scalia said to the National Wild Turkey Federation, which I somehow think has less to do with a buch of Wild Turkey’s coming together to set an agenda for the continued progress of the species and more to do with a bunch of middle-aged white men trying to find new ways to kill them. Gander if you will…um, no pun intended:
“The attitude of people associating guns with nothing but crime, that is what has to be changed,” Scalia told the audience of about 2,000.
“I grew up at a time when people were not afraid of people with firearms,” said Scalia, noting that as a youth in New York City he was part of a rifle team at the military school he attended.
“I used to travel on the subway from Queens to Manhattan with a rifle,” he said. “Could you imagine doing that today in New York City?”
It seems that the good Justice wants folks to be able to walk around with guns all willy nilly. I wonder if that includes us little nigras in the inner city ghettoes that these people wouldn’t venture to if their wives were kidnapped by Christopher Walken and Laurence Fishburne.
And there are folks carrying rifles on the subway today in New York City, Antonin. They are called the U.S. Military.
-Master P should be shot by the U.S. Military on a New York City subway for being a grown ass black man with no rhythm. Thank you.
-Has anybody else noticed that R. Kelly STILL hasn’t been to trial yet?
-I must mention this again. But poor Busta Rhymes. Riding high off his comeback courtesy of Dr. Dre and Aftermath Records. How pissed would you be to see him wearing a Stop Snitching t-shirt right about now? Me, I’d be heated and I’d throw potatoes at white people in Idaho. I read on Allhiphop (which doesn’t necessarily give this much credence) that he went to Cali to avoid a New York State subpoena. Not sure how much truth there is to that. But damn…I’m just glad I’m not a rapper and don’t have to live by shit like that for street credibility. Then again I also miss out on all of the video hoes and free access to any STD imaginable. But I guess you can’t make an omelete without breaking a few eggs.
I’m sure that will make sense to somebody. I’m also sure that somebody will actually consider whether or not that’s a worthy trade-off.
-Howard University, the other white meat, is holding a Hip Hop Symposium on it’s campus at the end of March. I think that when I hit it big, I’m going to have one of them there symposiums myself and partner with an HBCU so I can bring all these people who come here and think that rap is garbage and put them on stage with other folks like myself so we can battle it out in public. I’m sure there are actually people who hold views similar to T. (look at that, you got a shoutout in one of my posts) on one of the spectrum and then there are people like me on the whole other end. We might also make it pay per view and feature a boxing ring where for every good point somebody makes, the other gets to take blast their favorite rap or other song. Either that or everybody will just take shots of Grey Goose and then we have a After Symposium Jam filled with nothing but the clean version of rap songs and Willie Nelson.
But, something I did want to mention was that these symposiums rarely feature people, especially younger black folks, who have a disdainful opinion on rap. It’s always people who are rappers trying to explain what needs to happen. Coincidentally, they are also some of the oldest and currently least selling rappers in the game right now. Ironic? I think not.
Bottom line, when I hit it big, some of you will get calls from me.
-I realized the other day that I know one person who actually still watches BET. I’d like to say that my plan is working, but the fact is, BET just sucks and has been running people away faster than the creator AYD’S Weight Loss regiment. I saw this on vh1’s WebJunk show. Apparently, in the late 70’s (I think), there was a fellow who created the AYD’s weight loss regimen. Talk about the WORST name for a produce, weight-loss, no less. I wonder where that dude is now.
Anyway, BET has apparently run anybody who would actually watch it away. Not that I care much, I just feel that it’s important to do BET updates from time to time.
-I went to the University of Maryland for grad school. With that in mind, I’d like to say that I’m a huge Duke Blue Devils fan. And I love JJ Redick.
And fuck the Maryland Terrapins and have fun in the National Invitational Tournament.
I have become bored with myself.
That is all for now.

Flava of love!! HELL YEAH!! I am all into that one. You are right about pumkins triflin *ss. I am rooting for New York! I used to hate her, but now I believe in her. After seeing her crazy *ss mom in action, I can SEE why NY is such a lunatic!
February 27th, 2006 11:34
Oh.My.God. Why did I JUST SAY THE SAME THING ON BC’S SITE!!! And Juli, please get out of my head.
I picked Hoopz as my favorite in the very first episode… however, now that Pumkin’s crazy ass (who would have CLEARLY been on a milk carton had she spit in my muthafuckin’ face, did ya’ll READ what happened to a chick that actually DID spit in my face during my “Pugilistic Ponderings” series… back when I had a blog? LOL) anty-hoo… yeah umm… Juli - cut it out!!! I said the SAME thing last night, almost verbatim, as I watched in unmitigated horror, as she got spat on. OMG. Unreal. I was like, “I like Hoopz, but she’s clearly gay and I’m almost starting to BELIEVE in NY. Like somewhere in the recesses of her disturbed mind, she really DOES like him. LOL And the one thing no one can say is that NY was ever fake. That trick has told all these ho’s from day one… ‘look here ho’s… I’m not here for you, I’m here for Flav, don’t look for a friend in me.” Period. And damn if she wasn’t true to that. So now, since my gay-dar goes frantically out of control whenever Hoopz pretty ass is on the screen, I’m thinking maybe NY’s crazy, but possibly sincere ass is the best thing for him. ROFLMAO!!! Hilarious.
And her mother is Satan. Which, ironically, made me MORE inclined to believe that maybe her shyt is genuine, because if you were really fake… wouldn’t you employ your friends and family to be fake with you? Hmmph. Interesting. Sorry for this tangential rant. LOL I will now go back to reading the SECOND paragraph. LOL

1. Grey’s Anatomy - I watched the pilot episode and wished I would have kept watching, because I liked it! But I never watched another episode since… boooo….
2. OMG Scalia is the DEVIL and umm… while crime may have dropped, asked Antonin Satan… about the statistics on homicides/guns in the home. Also ask him about accidental shootings and children. The statistics are ALARMING!!!
3. I hate you for the rest of this post. LOL
And you BETTER call me when you make it big. I want a shoutout when you’re accepting your BET LOL (how ironic would that be) or your Source/Vibe award. I want to fall somewhere after your Lord and Savior and somewhere before your babysitter and the haters that told you you’d never make it. Thanks. =)
And umm… we must talk about the last Boondocks episode that I watched… *back to IMing you* LOL

Flavor of Love IS the most ignant, entertaining show on right now! I’ve been waiting for last night’s episode ever since the previews a week ago and it was not disappointing. At this point, I want NY to win just cuz Hoopz is too fly for Flav. That chick is bangin’!

Ure wrong about Miss Grey. It was a admirable and beautiful act of philanthropy if you ask me. Dude showed his hand and asked for it and she gave it to him. Whats the problem? He may have caught her in a moment of confusion and vulnerability but the intent was pure though the result was not what they wanted. George has shown a propensity toward bitchdom and this is just further evidence. He’ll get over it though.

I would like to know how we can get more Flava Flav and Flav related shows on my television. From the Surreal Life, to Strange Love to Flava of Love, he has done so much for my entertainment!!! I’m actually mad that nobody put him on TV sooner.
I am openly rooting for NY. That’s right!! I’m a fan. From her super shine-on weave, to her 17 layers of make-up, she is great!!! She’s what Flava needs. As a matter of fact, I kinda hope they don’t really get together–which they won’t. And I would hope that NY ends up with her own show. Screw Nick and Jessica, we need more Flav and NY! Then my life would be complete. Just kidding–sorta.

@Wood: It would be an act of philanthropy if she didn’t feel horrible about it later. Is George kind of bitchmade, maybe, however, she asked George to come back to her before they hit when he was finna be out. She made a bad decision that he has to live with. She does too…but her heart was trampled by him…
And I’m with everybody else…we all need more Flavor Flav in our lives. How funny would a reality show featuring Bobby Brown AND Flavor Flav traipsing thru Europe picking up non-English speaking snow bunnies??
They could call it The Black Bachelor: Snow Trip!
Who wouldn’t watch that?

HEEL PRIDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I guess I’ll have to Tivo Flavor of Love repeats because I have missed this obvious gem. Oh and Grey’s Anatomy is the shizzzznet!
Funny how Meredith’s actions coincide with a post you did last week.
February 28th, 2006 09:33
It is ironic isn’t it…
February 28th, 2006 15:48
I love Grey’s Anatomy. Meredith needs to be hit in the head with a brick for the way she treated George. Karma is truly a bytch and she can’t possibly expect anything good to happen in her life. Tramp slut. (Can you tell I feel some kinda way about how that went down)
And am I the only one that’s sick of Sheppard’s wife? You don’t get sympathy for being sorry you cheated!

OK First let me say…LMAO at the Master P comment. My mother got me hooked on Dancing with only two episodes left. I heard all of the comments about “P” but didn’t think it could possibly be that bad…boy was I wrong. That is a dayum shame!!!!
Grey’s Anatomy…LOVES IT!!! It’s nice to see that television is becoming entertaining without the show having to be reality-based, ie Dancing, Idol, Survivor, the list goes on…and on.
You had me laughing til my stomach hurt!! Thanks!
