Billy Mays > The Shamwow Guy



Because the Shamwow guy doesn't participate in shenanigans like this. He thinks he's above this. Instead he just bites hookers and looks like a melted tan candle. This seriously is one of the 5 most funny random things I've seen in '09. Enjoy.

PS-I'm still not buying either of these guys products but if I'm stuck in an elevator with one of them Billy Mays would help pass the time quicker (n/h).

Prison Terrifies Me

You know why I couldn't do jail? I mean besides the sodomy which would obviously be terrible and all, unless you were some gay guy who liked guys. Even then though, you'd have to imagine that'd be horrible for him too because it's not like the gay guy gets to say no and turn guys down. No the gay guy has to have sex with everybody who steps to him. I mean even when I try to imagine myself in that position, imprisoned and forced against my will to have sex with women in a similar situation (although not as bad as earlier said scenario, admittedly) I doubt it would be the utopia we all imagine it to be. The word no wouldn't exist to some of the most horribly unattractive females you'd ever meet in life. I'm talking every woman you've ever turned down. Every ugly woman you've caught yourself staring at in disbelief. Every single girl on your school's basketball and baseball team. Every female bus driver. Everybody on the damn bus! Just ugh. You've got to put on a game jersey and check into the game every time and perform. I could not make it through. No way.

But back to what I was saying, you know why I couldn't go to jail? The sleep. The sleep would suck. If I don't get just the right amount of sleep each day I'm useless for an entire day of my life. If I can't roll over and get the extra hour or two that I require to be my normal self on occasions than I'm unpleasant, unproductive, less responsive, forgetful and the quality of my life and anyone depending on me that day goes down a little. And it's so rough in jail. Lights out at a certain time and rise and shine at another every day, every week, every year. No exceptions. I can't even fathom the repercussions. I mean because you go into prison facing in the minimum a threat to your butthole but if you mess up in jail and don't do what the guards want you to do, then what? I can only imagine. With my sleeping habits I couldn't be perfect every single day. It'd only be a matter of time.

These things terrify me after watching OZ.

Five Quick Political Thoughts That Bear Worth Mentioning From This Week That I Pondered

1.) Sarah Palin thought Africa was a country according to Fox News. Did I mention they knew this BEFORE the campaign ended on November 4th and only now decided to make it known for some agreement with the leak source. Way to put country first, FOX. Had we elected this those jerks we'd be stuck with them and would have no reprieve for at least 4 years.It's like knowingly selling faulty goods to consumers. Moral bankruptcy. (link)

2.) Do people realize there are no black senators left now and how sad that is? I mean there's only two black governors. Why is that important? Because it goes to show you how fundamentally impossible it is for another black president. Consider the biggest knock on Barack through the primaries and ultimately during the general election: his experience. How much experience can you gain as a vital credential in your quest toward the presidency if you can't make the Senate or become a Governor? Sure there are more black state representatives but how many people make the jump from state representative to the presidency? I say enjoy the next four years and possibly eight because if you look at Washington right now outside of Pennsylvania avenue, there won't be much chance to see this repeat itself for at least another twenty years.

3.) Take that back, there is another potential competent black candidate, Condoleeza Rice. Experience, foreign credentials, been in the white house, is a moderate Republican and she has the respect of the world. Crazy thing is I'm not even sure she would win the nomination from Sarah Palin though who is clearly less qualified. And people think Affirmative Action aids inferior black candidates.

4.) Anyone who thinks racism is magically gone from the American equation is delusional. Basically the black man had to be flawless in every sense to beat the old white man who seemed to do everything he possibly could every other week to give this election away.

5.) It's crazy that Joe The Plummer, crusader for smaller government and lower taxes was himself a welfare recipient paid for by taxes. Poor white people who vote against their own economic interests recruited into fighting for ideals that only benefit rich men is a sad story. (link)

Wednesday's Woman: Remixed

No feature of the day as far as singularly focusing on a woman for the day but rather like I've done once before I feel like featuring a couple different women in picture form and helping the fellas get over hump day with a few commendable pictures I've come across or been emailed. Some you'll recognize, some you won't, all are hot. Hopefully this is enjoyed.
Internet's been good to me. Real good to me as you can see. More next week.

Fugly Friday

Look, it's a day after my birthday, I'm recovering, it looks like this outside:Not pretty, and no that's not my cat. I don't even like cats. Cats and Orange Aura'd people don't mix company. So this is a full admission that the posts might not be as forthcoming today but I'll see what I can do. Today is gonna be one of those Open Gym days you had in school where you'd go in Phys. Ed and the teacher wouldn't have shit planned so you just did whatever so that's what this is today.

Rapidshare Hates America & Wants Us To Lose The War On Terror

I have no tangible evidence or empirical proof but stuff like this:


proves it for me. Why else would they make it that much more difficult to download something from their site. I'm trying to grab the last part to "Welcome Home Roscoe Jenkins" not trying to play "Where's Waldo" with cats, man. This is weak, rapidshare.

It's Dark and Hell is Hot


But not as hot as my room is right now. AC ain't getting turned on until June. I was raised like that. I can't help it.

You come from a black family and that's standard. Dad wasn't about to pay for air conditioning if it wasn't 85 degrees outside and Summer. Unfortunately for me, it's mid-April and already 80. Oh well, time to pull out the big corner fan and sit still and hope that does it for me. Unfortunately the problem with that idea is if there's already hot ass air trapped in your room, there's little a fan is going to do to counteract the discomfort from the heat you're feeling. All it's going to do is blow hot air right back at you. Genius.

So in that vein, I hope we're in for some rain to break this heat up.

I Need To Visit Brazil...

Like Yesterday. These are pictures of a random Brazilian chick I came by that I can't believe how dope she is.

Brazil needs more me and less distance between Ohio and there.
Damn though I didn't know it was like THAT though. Leandro Barbosa & Nene are idiots. Why leave there (and her) for America to play basketball?


Damn fools.

Dumb Things People Say Pt. 1

"Why Do You Want To Work For Us?" - Employer at Job Interview, 'Because You Pay Money'

*Phone Rings*
*Somone at your house picks up*
"Hello--Hello?--Hello?--- Hello? ---Hello? Hello? Hello?"
- Person who just picked up the phone and to their utter amazement nobody says anything each time they say hello at which normal rational human being hangs up after two 'hellos' and gives up on the person on the other side of the phone, but through sheer stupid determination they continue asking hoping after the 13th hello someone identifies their self.

"Welcome to (Various Fast Food Establishment), would you like to try the new Southwestern Super Duper Calafradulishicexpyaladocious Mushroom Swiss Burger?" - No I would not, what I would like is to tell you what I want and you to make note of it and not for you suggest things to me like I'm some child that can't make up his mind.

My 10 Favorite Shoes Ever

It's hard to make these kinds of lists because tastes evolve & times change but that aside there are 10 pair of shoes, 5 of which I've bought and worn, that have changed the game for me. I'm not a "shoe head" or collector and I've never bought a pair of Jordans because everybody did that and I didn't want to be a caricature of what people my age and race were so I always went my own way via my footwear which was rather nice if I do say so myself over the years. That said, these shoes are my favorite 10 pair of all-time:

10.) The Nike Griffey Air Max's were a thing of beauty. I mean this shoe right here is art. Not a wasted piece of shoe on the entire canvass. Not too busy, the colors work seamlessly, and the air bubbles give it character. At the time time this shoe came out Ken Griffey Jr. was 'The Man' and so you wanted this shoe in your life as you aspired to be the man too. 10 years later Griffey ain't near what he once was but the shoe hasn't lost a damn step. For those nostalgic group of people who remember this shoe and it's greatness and want to take a trip down memory lane, that trip won't come easy or cheap. Think of forking over something to the tune of $200 on eBay and that's on the conservative estimate side of things and that's if you find it and if it's available in your size or preferred colorway. Good luck with that but if you do please take care of those things of beauty on your feet because they'll take care of you and whatever you're wearing. That's for damn sure.

9.) The ever elusive often sought after Marty McFly shoes. Now if you think finding Waldo in a sea of people in Freddy Krueger sweaters and hats with the red balls on top is hard, you can forget about finding these bad boys anytime soon. Now granted these shoes are just an internet myth right now for all intents and purposes, it doesn't make them any less ill or me any less insane in pondering how I can mortgage my future on getting a pair in my closet. I didn't even know of the shoe's existence until about 2006 or so when Kanye West made a comment about them. Not that I follow his fashion sense or anything other than his musical output, but when I saw what he was talking about I saw what he was talking about, lol. I've never seen any full scene of any movies in the Back to the Future franchise and so there's no way I could have possibly been able to stumble across these unless the internet made it possible but I'm glad Al Gore looked out for me and made the internet. If and when these shoes ever do come out, expect to drop at least $200 for them.

8.) Nothing in this world gets you through the Summer or the Spring than a pair of white on white Air Force One's. I can't put my finger on approximately how many pairs I've squandered on these babies over the years but if I had to take a guess I'd say somewhere in between 60-65. Yes, it's that serious. If you own a pair or have own a pair, you know what I'm talking about. One scratch or crease and the end isn't far away. They go from being a complement to a classy fresh new outfit straight out of a mall store to an afterthought on your feet with some sweatpants and a tank top as grass cutters when you mow the lawn in a span of a month. Cicadas have a longer life than them but not more purposeful or important to a man between 18-30. The Nike Air Force One has done more for the black community than MLK. LOL, well not him especially on today the 40th Anniversary of his death, but Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, Kwiesi NFume and the rest of the so called black leaders of that generation ever did combined. If the government if decides to give reparations to black people, pay me in Air Force Ones. Me and Uncle Sam can dead our beef with a closet of white on whites.

7.) This was a bit of a tough call for me and believe me I went back and fourth between this shoes and the white on white version of it but this shoe ended up getting the nod because it's less common than it's cousin. Yes, the Nike Air Force Canada is no joke indeed. The red and white on it definitely make it a special 2 or 3 time a month shoe but when you have it on you just know you're doing some things. Plus it's got peanut butter soul just like me. This tells me the shoe knows the struggle of black people, lol. If the shoe could vote it'd be behind Barack Obama. Nah, actually it's Canadian so it wouldn't be voting for him or anybody else but damn it's a great shoe. I've never had the chance to own a pair because time and opportunity was never on my side when it wa sout but I swear if I come across a pair of reasonably priced ones on eBay I'm straight pressing the "Buy it Now" button on sight. You don't see these shoes everyday. Expect to come out of pocket anywhere between $55-80 for them. Very reasonable for this. Trust me.

6.) Gary Payton has never done anything that I've ever liked in life other than throw a fast break to Shawn Kemp but these shoes were special. He's done nothing as great since or ever will. The Nike Air Zoom Glove shoe was an awakening to men that they could accesorize their kicks with zippers and stay masculine and fashionable at the same time. Now below the zipper was an eye sore that left your few options other than leaving them zipped but why would you want to pull the flap over the shoe like you woke up and forgot to dress your shoes that day. That would be tacky . Now you wanted to keep the outside layer over the inside layer. At most you might unzip the shoe to let them breathe from time to time but never and I mean NEVER fold the top down. This is a shoe, not a convertible although just as beautiful one might argue. The all black ones in this picture were nice but I actually had the all white ones with the green insides. Beautiful shoe it was and very unique in that this colorway was very hard to get in Cincinnati. I think I had my mom travel out to Kentucky to get these for me. I think they were $105 dollars with tax. Needless to say I made the Honor Roll that year. Mom bought me off with these. Trust me, that was one of those rare win-win situations for everybody involved.

5.) The Nike Air Zoom Flight 5's from 1997 were the best pair of Jason Kidd shoes ever. Funny story, my sister had a crush on him since he was drafted in '94 and I always found interest in whatever she thought was hot so Jason Kidd ipso facto became my favorite player that year too. Now looking back on it, my sister never thought he was a great basketball player or anything. She could have cared less. She couldn't have possibly knew he would go on to be one of the top 5 point guards of all-time but she picked a great athlete for her brother to emulate. Anyways, to make a long story short, when he dropped this shoe in '97 imagine how excited I was to own a pair of Jason Kidds. I think this might have been the quarter after I got the Gary Payton shoes from above but I stayed getting good grades and playing sports in middle school and involving myself in school musicals and happenings so as a result, they pretty much laced me with great shoes that entire year. They cost maybe $94 which for that shoe seemed reasonable. I think Nike is re-realeasing these this summer and even though I don't like Kidd near as much as I did back then yes I plan on getting another pair. When you become a grown man it's less about the person the shoe belongs to than how it looks. I don't care if these were Air Bin Ladens and they came out on 9/11 in New York only, I'd cop them. And I plan on it. I don't give a damn, lol.

4.)The Nike Air Much Uptempo Olympic Pippens. The all black ones were probably nicer overall but I always preferred these just a little bit more. Now to be fair, I never owned a pair of either but looking back these shoes were the LeBron James' or sneakers. They came in and revolutionized the game forever. I wish Nike would taken this idea and ran with it a little bit. I would have spelled out some wild things on my shoes if I had my way. Damned if I wouldn't put "Obama" on the sides of them today and wear them. Nothing like a conflict of interest putting Obama, a politician against the special interest groups and corporate interests on a pair of Nike's with a big swoosh emblem on the back, huh? Anyway they retro'd these shoes a few years back but they didn't quite look the same. If I did buy these shoes I'd probably just put them in my closet and not ruin them by scuffing them up. These were just a work of art. $145 worth of art. Relatively cheap compared to a Picasso huh?

3.) The Nike Air Zoom Turf's went HARD. If you were born in the 80's and grew up in the 90's and were a Nike wearing kid you either owned these yourself or had a half dozen or more friends who owned a pair which might have disqualified you from wanting these because you wanted to be original but even if you didn't own a pair of these you respected them. If you didn't respect them, didn't own a pair or didn't have a friend in the world who rocked these then you were probably lame in school and this whole Top Ten list has been a complete waste of your time since we came from very very different worlds. 1997 might have been the illest year of all-time for Nike shoes. There will never ever ever be another year like this again. It's something similar to the '95 High School All-American game. So many great individual standouts, so little time to appreciate them one by one but collectively you know what's up. This is the first and perhaps only shoe I've ever liked that Barry Sanders dropped. Much respect.

2.) Now I know I know, this is a predominately Nike list and it's a bit of a cop out to go that route of listing the Timberland 6" Wheat boot but this shoe has gotten me through more years than almost anything or anybody.
Me and this shoe go back. We go back to '95. Now I know New York's been on this shoe way before then but you have to keep in mind Ohio is late to everything so they didn't really get caught up with Tims until like '99. So for a 11 year old Hip Hop head like myself, these shoes were a must. I was the first person I knew with a pair of these shoes and by a good distance. Since then I've gone every possible route of the Timberland and every style but the sandals and after all the different types I still chose this one over all other. I would wear these shoes to my funeral if the casket opened up all the way. In fact I might have to make a provision to my final wishes so that instead of opening my coffin from the waist up that mine is only open from the waist down. That's the only way to go out. That way if you see somebody on the other side you don't like you can stomp them out properly. I've owned as many Timberlands as I have Air Force Ones and thus they are just as much a part of me and probably more since I've been wearing them longer. Solid classic show. Real inexpensive if you go through the right channels and just like the Air Force's they are the most susceptible to becoming grasscutters quick if you don't take care of them. Take care of them and they should take care of you for a good 3-4 months on average.

1.) Now at this time some of you will feel where I'm coming from and some of you well be like WTF at me choosing the Nike Air Shake Ndestrukt, but lucky for you I know what I'm talking
about . These were the greatest shoe of all-time . Excluding nobody. The dopeness of this shoe surpasses anything you or anyone you know has ever done. Yes you. Unless Jesus was your right hand man and I would need to check your birth certificate to back up such a claim than yes I'm talking to you. These shoes save lives. I owned three pair of them and I wish I had purchased more. My personal favorite colorway were the all black with the green and white trim. I shut down a lot of people with these back in my day. Even when I reintroduced them in '04 on Ohio State's campus I had people stopping me every five seconds asking me how much and where. Durable,comfortable, original (they tie up on the side for Christ sake) and relatively inexpensive ($90) when I first got them back in the '96. Dennis Rodman was a weird basketball player and even weirder human being but the man knew what was up when he fashioned these I must say. Come to think of it, he always did. The Air Darwins and the Air Worm's he had with Nike were on point as well although I never had the opportunity to own either pair. Oh well, I can dide a happy man because these shoes were the ultimate.

Mayonnaise Sucks

Ketchup should be the only standard condiment!

I'm talking to you in particular Wendy's! How many good burgers must you ruin with fuckin' Mayonnaise?!?!? Just do what's ethically and morally right, put mayonnaise packets in the bag and leave it up to the discrepancy of the customer.

Should I be eating burgers in the first place? hellllllll no but when I do decide to grab one I shouldn't have to request one without a disgusting condiment that already shouldn't be on it. Then of course when you do ask them to take something off or put something on the chances greatly increase that you're going to receive a finished product with some sort of deficiency or thing wrong with it. You can't hardly ask a fast food restaurant to make any alteration to the standard issued burger or they lose all sight of everything and almost ensures that you won't be getting what you ask for.

In short, mayonnaise=bad, but fast food=really bad.

Regular Dude Role Call

You know what's always frustrating? When extraordinary people settle for ordinary ones.

It's just not natural to look at.

I mean it's irritating down to the soul of an on-looker when a regular guy wins the heart of an amazing woman. It's the same typecast, run of the mill, nothing-special-going-on kind-of-guy that does it every time. You see it all too often. Hollywood's gotten rich off selling this very narrative to an unassuming audience seemingly okay with mediocrity. The guy the girl falls for can be found by the dozen on any random street at any given time in any country. It's like God stops giving a shit at times when he's making men every generation and goes to a mass producing general mold perfect for quick duplication to save time.

Don't misconstrue what I'm writing and think I'm vein enough to be exalting myself subliminally because believe me, I'm as normal and typical a guy as they come, I just hate to see my kind interfering with order of nature. Guys with some God-given ability or talent or gift or way of tapping into their partner in ways that transcend others' capacity I feel deserve to be with the trophy women they get. I can at least be happy for the couple in good conscious, but regular ass dudes who keep getting over on the world are getting annoying.

What's Going On? Word to Marvin G

The world is so fucked up when you think about it. If you go back to all the people people who used to be at the forefront of the world who have gone in the last 10 years. I'm talking from top to bottom. I mean we went from Bill Clinton (who even Republicans that were hated when he was in office back then now, like history, look more favorably on his tenure), one of the best periods of economic prosperity, an erased national debt and an overall reasonably satisfied nation to George fucking Bush. I'm not even a Bush bashing liberal either, just there's a noticeable miles difference between them.

The music? It sucks now. You think back 10 years ago and it was so exciting. Like when it was so easy to be optimistic as to what the future held for music because the quality at that time was so good you couldn't help to wonder what would come next. Now it's repulsive how much more garbage it could actually get. Nobody gives a shit about music and it shows partly through record numbers.

We lost so much in the past decade it's ridiculous. As a society, we've lost credibility, culture and least we forget how we've lost and continue to lose legends that we don't seem to even care to attempt to replace. It ain't like losing people has never been a problem in the history of the world but now? the great ones aren't being replaced at the rate that they're leaving. That's why athletes come back to sports after retirement and musicians swear they're done recording only to return time after time after time.

Ain't no more upward mobility or aspirations with the youth. They're just living to survive now and society is in large part okay with that it seems. Opportunistic commercialism preys on the worst impulses of the youth. In fact, society don't even have the courtesy to give them the same lies and shitty encouragement we had growing up. No more after school specials, no more "the more you know" commercials, none of that. They're just getting poisoned earlier and being targeted by all the garbage material bullshit and fixated upon all type of shit that won't even matter to them ten or even five years from now. What the fuck happened? We went from cranking Tupac & Biggie songs on the radio to Cranking That Soulja Boy.

What's Going On? Indeed.

The Corner Seat

Every man will undoubtedly identify with what I'm about to say because they've looked me in the eyes on the battlefield and locked horns with me in the quest of it and it's never pretty. The End Seat of the row on planes, in movie theaters, in church and every other social venue that requires being seated turns me into Leonidas from 300 every time. There's nothing scarier in the car en route to your destination other than traffic than wondering if you'll be on time and then by extension if you'll have somewhere to sit. Of course, by that I mean not just anywhere to sit, but the corner seat specifically. You know the seat that gives you extra leg space on one side. The seat that gives you absolute independence and freedom to get up and go to the bathroom freely without having to go through the act of excusing yourself by every pair of kneecaps and shoes as you try to move gracefully through the row to get to the aisle as you are almost handicapped to get cooperation to be able to go to the bathroom. It's disgusting. You piss everyone off on the way to the bathroom and just as people get comfortable again after you've left and they've forgot you existed, you've got to get back to your seat so you have to go through the whole song and dance again to return to your seat. And Heaven forbid you have to go to the bathroom more than once, or your phone rings or you get to coughing and need a drink of water or visit the concession stand because it's pretty much an unwritten rule that you've used your one grace exit and entrance back to your seat and that any additional interruptions and disturbances will cause unpleasant reactions that may not be able to be masked. People will give you the benefit of hiding their displeasure the first time around but the second time, expect funny looks or unnecessary clicks of tongues or sighs like your mother ought to send out hand written apologies to everybody in your way for ever having gave birth to you.

If you ask me, I'd much rather stand up during a movie if I get there 5-10 minutes late than have to get to the two open seats in the middle of the road. But what can you do if you're with company in the public? Sometime I wish I were handicapped so my seat would be guaranteed and not only that I'd have a quick spot upfront in the parking lot too, but instead I'm using my legs like asshole. Lucky me.

The Laws of the Bathroom Pt. 1

In most aspects of life, proper decorum is dictated by the majority through societal norms & public submissions. People always say that if you don't know what to do, just blend in and do what everybody else is doing and that way if it's wrong then they can't arrest or blame everybody. Nowhere is more true than the highway. I know it's fairly mandatory for me to find the dude or conga line of cars going the fastest speeds and then blending in with them and therefor I'm not doing too much of the extra extra stuff that would draw the ire of a highway trooper that would love to write me a ticket. Pops always told me that the police will usually give the benefit of the doubt to you when you stay within the flow of the traffic. Now if the highway is full of old ladies and 16 year-olds then I'm probably going to be rolling a little closer to grandpa then Dale Earnhardt Jr. speed. The point remains, the public legislates what's normal and what's not.

However there are certain miles where individuals must walk by themselves and lose the comfort of acting in conjunction with the group. It's in these times where the lines of acceptable behavior are the blurriest. It is then when we must chart our own path and be steadfast in our judgement. Most chiefly of said times is the restroom. It can be a very scary place to find yourself because of it's lawlessness. At home, there are unwritten codes mom and dad have laid out since as far back as you can remember, like stop the toilet if it runs. Don't leave the toilet paper roll empty. Don't leave piss on the toilet when you're done. Get that courtesy flush cracking when you're done. I could go on and on. Some of these things may be foreign to you as rule varies from household to household. You can even call some of them silly but at least it's an ethos. When you use public facilities it's Wild Wild West up in that piece.

So it occurs to me, we need a certain degree of law to adhere to in there. Me being the opportunist I am, I figure why not make a rough draft and so I have. I'm a Biggie fan so to pay homage to him this week I'm gonna call these The 10 ButtCrack Commandments:

1.) Flush The Toilet - This one should be self evident, but you'd be surprised at how little this is followed. I know you're proud of your urine or your gift to the porcelain god as any toddler would be, but keep that nasty shit between you, God and the whichever hole that stuff is coming out of. I've got this thing right, where I go to piss, and it's the damndest thing that I want clean clear water staring back at me. I know, crazy right? I'm just funny like that. Just the thought of splashback from someone else's liquids splattering my jeans upsets me. Plus it's unseemly to mix urine samples with another. Something just ain't right about that. I don't care if it's a stranger, my best friend, my father or anybody! This is mostly a urinal issue but stalls can get fairly flagrant too. Flush the damn toilet. I'm not asking you to draw up a plan to get the troops out of Iraq. You can do this.

2.) If you see someone in a stall, door closed, paints around their ankles and their dropping The Brown Album be a grown up. Don't giggle like a school child. If the giddy feelings start to overtake you, walk out so neither of you lose pride. I'm a germaphobe to the fullest and I don't use public toilets to drop deuces but I can't tell you how often I've seen others overlook this simple respect. Poop. We all do it.

3.) There's a sanctity of the bathroom that ought not be the center of conversation between co-workers. I don't want to hear all the gossip about whose in the center stall doing work. That doesn't peak my interest and it shouldn't peak your if you've got a High School diploma or GED equivalence. Unless you're Larry Craig, the bathroom stall should be like Vegas in what happens there should stay there.

4.) The one stall/urinal space rule isn't a myth or comedy routine. It's real and ought to be upheld at all times. You shouldn't be all up on anyone in the bathroom. It isn't the club.

5.) Parents ought not bring their opposite sex child in the bathroom with them. It embarrasses, you, me, the kid and everyone else around. I'm saying this as a victim of shopping with my mother as a kid. I'm speaking from experience here. I've been on the wrong side of this scene and it ain't pretty, it ain't charming, it's just you, your little bladder shy wee-wee, your mother standing outside the stall encouraging you to hurry up and a room full of grown women. None of this goes together. None of these actors are right for this movie. It's not cute and it's not funny. Everybody loses. So I think either both parents should do the shopping thing together so if either sexed kid had to go, they'd feel comfortable with their prospects or if you're flying solo with your child and somebody has to go potty and you and your child's parts don't match, you or him/her need to hold it.

This is To Be Continued....

Aww, yes the Obligatory Introduction Piece...

Many may know me, some don't but all will in due time [or at least that's the plan].

Anyway, a little about me, I made this site on a whim at 3 AM on a Thursday night after aimless web surfing looking for something I haven't found yet to entertain me which may or may not exist. Boredom is the internet's worst enemy and people need shit to keep them from working or making worthwhile contributions to society and hopefully, in my most humblest attempt, I can be your drug pusher; the conveyor of your entertainment needs. Plus, if you're going to buy that raw from the web, buy from me. I got it for the low.

I'm going to make this site as perfectly random as my moods are from day to day, minute to minute, so if you don't like:


  • Neo-Soul
  • Old School R&B [the good stuff, NOT the corny stuff] downloads
  • Sports
  • Random albeit entertaining all-encompassing Youtube videos
  • The occasional Hip-Hop download
  • Left-leaning political musings
  • Commentary/Insight on various happenings ranging from niggadry-Kingdom Come [the place, not the album, that shit was awful]
  • Eye Candy
  • More...
Then this site probably isn't for you and you should snatch up the breadcrumbs you followed that brought you here.

If you're still here, reading, lurking in the background, enjoy yourself, use the comments box [because that's what it's there for and stay a while.......or not, lol.] and make yourself at home and Bookmark me. Also, email me at thatosudude@aol.com if I missed something important or something that should be mentioned or brought to my attention that I may want to post.


Feel free to visit the concession stands for snacks and the like.......Enjoy the show!
