The Troubles Going On Are Just Too Much

I could go on all day about the corruptions of society. Release your mind and let the funk flow. Free your mind and your ass will follow. The greatest irony of all is that no one cares. I got some trivia for you. Who can tell me the name of the famous person that once stated "What good fortune for those in power that people do not think"? Most of all we need the funk, got to have the funk. If we don't have the funk we aren't free thinkers. The ones who think outside of their insignificant problems and into what's reality should be dubbed the "sons of the flow". I could go on all day about the corruptions of society.

Professors try to act like they are superior in every way, and they aren't. Professors act like they have the world revolving around their aura, and it doesn't. Face the truth: professors don't know a goddamn thing about what really matters. Some subjects get so specific that real world situations aren't part of the ingredients. Nope, only what's important to the superego of the professor. I could go on all day about the corruptions of society.

This, of course doesn't apply to the majority.

Why does life matter when the majority of people are so stupid? Why don't the majority of people give a fuck about anything? Why do people pay more attention to outlawing the teaching of evolution in public schools? Evolution will not destroy religion. I am reading a textbook and stumbled upon an interesting University of Michigan study. It says that 57% of students surveyed students believe that there is a "great risk" in marijuana use (and the book claims this percentage is low!). Gee, I wonder how many of these kids frown on weed while drinking every night and thinking its fine because its legal. Why must people hold the stance of pro-drinking AND anti-marijuana? If only they'd smoke some pot - their personality would change from asshole to lovable. Supposedly Socrates was once in a marketplace and said "How many things there are that I do not want!" No human being would ever say this. Why can't anyone realize that Socrates was a fictional character?

Why can't hallucinagins be legalized? I know they're not for everyone, but I believe meat falls into the same category. They say that drugs give you altered perspectives yet each person has a different individual perspective anyway. Hell, I'd bet 90% of this country is addicted to caffeine anyway.

So who was it that originally stated the quote above? Can anyone tell me? How about a guess? Yes it was Hitler! Good job, you get a smiley face stamped on your dignity.

Legends of Hip-Hop

Today's Lecture: The Fat Boys



Swaying away from the ever-popular gold chains, hard rhymes, and sucker mc bashing of their times, the Fat Boys were the first definitive alternative rap group. Instead of rhyming about how ill they were, this rap outfit flowed about the joys of eating and human beatboxing. Before there was Rahzel or even Biz Markie, there was a man named Buff the Human Beat Box - the first human beat box to widely spread the newfound art form. With his trademark "breathe" beating, Buff brought the beat machine to a new level (and plenty of samples for rap later on). The two other mcs, Prince Markie Dee and Kool Rock-Ski, had effective rapping techniques that flowed in a most uniform fashion with praising various joys such as ketchup and macaroni. Their fly styles (jumpsuits, fat laces on the kicks) also went on to influence the style of the bigger hip-hoppers (such as Heavy D).



And who could ever forget the "All You Can Eat" montogue in the now-classic film-peice Krush Groove? All there is to say about the crew formerly known Disco Three is that their timeless facination of food (which in today's terms is far from dated) changed the face of rap forever. Hell, they even finished up their career with making one of the first rap-operas. Entitled "On and On", the album spawned such conceptual ideas for future rappers/djs (such as Prince Paul's "A Prince Among Theives" and the various Dan the Automater-produced albums). They even got to collaborate with the Beach Boys.

Another thing that must be stated is Buff's untimely death of a heart attack should be more known. I hear crap about Biggie, Tupac, and even Big Pun every year, but not Buff the Human Beat Box! May he rest in peace and his soul live eternally.

The Roosta Done Pulled A Jack, Part DOS

You wanna know what's fucked up? Truly and sincerely fucked through the asshole? When a commercial for a movie announces that it is the "winner of __ Golden Globe Nominations". First off, who gives a shit about the Golden Globes? Why are they even there? Nobobdy is going to remember what won a Golden Globe. The only purpose for the Academy Awards is so a particular award-winning film can advertise how many awards they won on the box at the video store. That doesn't happen with Golden Globes!

Secondly, don't call a movie a winner of nominations! That's just there to confuse all the idiots on this planet. Some slick, souless motherfucker must have came up with that idea. That's how far their Ivy League education takes them.

Yeah, I'm pulling another Jack, and thats because there is nothing to do on this winter break. Boredom doesn't produce productivity. All I can do is continue listening to Cat Power in a bored stuper. Word.

True Future

The other day I was listening to my favorite radio show, "Coast To Coast AM with George Noory (and Art Bell)" and came across the most interesting story available in the Universe (actually, its a Multiverse, given all of the parrallel worlds). It is the story of John Titor, a time traveler from the year 2036 who posted messages on the internet about our inevitible future. His story goes like this:

During the years of 2004/2005, America will start another civil war, excpet it wont be divided by territory this time. It will be a civil war between central authority and the laypeople. The cause of this hostility between the innocent and the powerful is due an everyday decrease of American civil liberties (do the words "Patriot Act" mean anything to you?). This civil war will eventually lead to a point in which eveyone is affected (in 2008). By 2015 90% of the world's population will no longer exist due to nuclear holocost. Soon after that the world's surviving population will regroup, rethink, and reclaim our generation as the ones who "had it all, but threw it away".

Sure, some of you are probably thinking "2004?!!?! That's some fucking BULLSHIT!" Maybe, but look at how divided this country is. The civil war probably already begun but hasn't reached a point of global castastrophe (it will in 2008). That's some scary shit. Still has yet to be proven wrong. This guy predicted the war in Iraq, predicted the hostilities and divison of the last election, and predicted the outbreak of Mad Cow (which, according to him, will get much worse). So what can I tell you? I'm speechless, there truly is no hope left. That's what we get for letting the "Patriot Act" pass. Yeah, I'm bias - FUCK YOU YOU FUCKING FREEDOM HATER. I close this post with a quote from a much-loved historical figure (even loved by those who blindly and angrily support every single fucking action our superiors take) and a link for you suckahs to find out more about John Titor (believe me, there are many stunning prophecies).
