Weed + School Paper = "F"

Pay Attention

And this is precisely why people get pick-pocketed, cheated, and scammed so often. Don't sleep.

Another Racist

I suppose it's plausible for a Democrat to disagree with Obama's platform and instead support McCain. It doesn't make this any less funny though.

StrictlyFitteds on NHTVSN

This is the final installment of a three-part interview series featuring my bro Nai, founder and editor of StrictlyFitteds.com - the online destination for fitted cap culture. Check it out as he explains the origins of the site and showcases some rarities from his personal collection.

Common on OKP TV

It sounds like Common is hitting that experimental Electric Circus neo-crackpipe again. I guess when you're recession-proof and have hedged your career with movie roles and a Sareena safety net, you can get away with stuff like this. Here he is explaining the new sound:

And with that, I'm reminded of one of my favorite Common quotes: "If I don't like it, I don't like it...that don't mean that I'm hatin'".

Illa J on VIMBY

J Dilla's younger bro, also an emcee/producer. Not quite legendary, but he's working on it. At certain angles, the resemblance is chilling.

Will Wave For Food

Confined bears wave at a group of onlookers who in turn toss them food. Odd, eh?

Feel Good Story

No on Prop 8

Proposition 8 is a ballot initiative that overturns California's Supreme Court decision to legalize gay marriage. If passed, it will rewrite the state's constitution to frame marriage exclusively as a union between a man and a woman. Proponents throw around terms like "family values" and "traditional marriage" in support of the initiative. Real eyes realize real lies people. Here are my thoughts:

Being that more than 40% of "traditional marriages" result in divorce paperwork, us heterosexuals lack the credentials to set standards on whom to marry. By this logic, perhaps I should go consult Britney Spears for tips on being a model parent, Michael Jackson on how not to be an abomination, and China on population control.

The fact that kids see janitors everyday at school doesn't compel them to scrub toilets. Teaching them about Napoleon Bonaparte doesn't create a student body jonesing to take over Europe. Personally, I think that teaching about marriage should be done outside the classroom and is the parents' responsibility. However, introducing same-sex marriages into the curriculum is not going to mass-convert children into homosexuals. Being that only 2% of our population is gay, it's not like teachers will be handing out textbooks entitled Do A Dude. I mean, blacks make up 14% of the US population and they only teach about our achievements in February (the shortest month).

Will changing marriage's fundamental framework cause an unraveling of long-standing social conventions? Will it create a slippery slope causing people to challenge the illegality of and/or make special exceptions for polygamy, pedophilia, incest, and bestiality? Frankly, we shouldn't abridge a class' rights simply to avoid having to re-address our ethical stance on other issues. Remember, it wasn't too long ago when laws against interracial marriage were on the books. I think we'll easily be able to put our collective foot down against sister-fucking and sheep-humping.
