I've lived this bro. He's no friend. He's a bitch ass dude that didn't have any game and got friendzoned. He acts like a jerk whenever you and the gf are together because he's jealous. And 3 weeks before you get married to her he'll express his feelings making a complete ass of himself losing his friend in her and getting his ass beat by you. Save him the trouble and punch him now.

Also if his name is Girouard and he's from South Carolina I'll beat his ass for you.

She gets simps coming around every now and then and I don't ever care too much. This guy has a gf of 4 years
who he lives with but hasn't gone past 2nd base with, yes you read that correctly.
He asks her questions that project the problems in his relationship, like 'are you happy/satified with your significant other' and other shit like that. Whatever.

The other day she told me she almost smacked him over a conversation they were having. He asked "Do you find your boyfriend attractive?" he asks because "usually asian girls don't like hispanic guys".

I can't bring myself to fight guys like that.

They always make me feel too good about myself.

Wiz concert 2 years back. shit was basically a mosh pit and we had to stand by the entrance, so everyone walked back and forth stepping on my kicks ( I knew better not rock something thatt could get messed up) and some stuff broke off.

That and a kid in front of me was on the verge of passing out/ODing. Like he passed out 3 times and got back up like it was nothing saying shit like

"I'm fine, no I don't need water"

The most interesting part to me about Ramsey was his insistence on not ignoring someone in plight even in a house. So many people would and have ignored such pleas, even the cops.

Yea I know how it goes, I used to play prop in college. I just didn't want to shit on soccer/football fans.

09 went back to undergrad to pick up a teachers recommendation for grad school (and to hook up with college girls). I ended up beating up some frat boy. The funny thing was he was starting fights with all the people I was with that night.

He was talking mad shit and was calling people out and then got scared when he saw I was going to be the one to fight him because I was known for fighting and mostly winning.

He made the mistake of picking fights with people without being surrounded by his brother I guess.... Those were Good times lol.

No kidding, I hate it when sir's are so quick to call a scrumdown over and over. Forwards stay taking all the hits, but don't get much glory since we hardly score try(at least not me anyways). I'm a bit of a glutton for pain and punishment though so I sometimes revel in it all.

Last fight? I caught up with my elementary school bully when I was in middle school. I grew taller, he didn't. I ran fast, he didn't.

I'm sure I've mentioned the story on GAF before...found it:

Bully from 3rd grade. Kicked me in the face once and I had to go to the hospital. Parents took me out of public school, afterward. I met him again in 6th grade in the cafeteria. I was a little kid in 3rd but grew to almost 6 feet by the time I was in 6th. He was around 1/2 my height when I met him again. There was a 2-second pause when he saw me and then he started running out of the cafeteria. I chased after him not sure why he was running--I realized who he was but just wanted to tell him that I didn't mean him any harm. Caught up with him, put my hand on his shoulder and he tried to hit me. I smashed his head against a few lockers and walked off and kicked him a bit while he was down. Never got in trouble for it and got a bit of a reputation, which was NOT cool considering that it looked like my school was transitioning into a gang recruiting center, that year.

I used to fight a lot when I was in elementary school due to my thick glasses...well, get in fights is more accurate. I learned to not get my ass kicked as long as the numbers weren't too stacked against me. I'm squeemish around blood and used to feel wrecked when I caused someone else to bleed...just felt really guilty. In a sick sorta way, that would lead me to usually kick people in their chests, stomach, legs, and back when they were on the ground and never hit them in the face unless I had to to protect myself. That fight that I quote above was the sole time that I can think of where I went after the person's head. Fuck him.

I've ALWAYS preferred the non-violent route and would probably get boatmurdered if I got into a fight now.

Last update for now (I should have made this it's own thread - sorry for derailing BCT). We (seemingly, I get secondhand information) convinced our mom to take the LOA. I used what she used on me as a kid and reminded her of the old folk story of the drowning man being sent a boat three times after going overboard. So AFIAK her job ain't gonna let her quit and she still has one.

Allstate said they're only going to pay 10,400$ for the car. They owe 11,000$ on it, so I guess once they pay another 600$ they're free from the loan. I dunno how that all works.

They also got a recall notice for the car today telling them to bring it in for a faulty stop lamp switch. :lol

It's really frustrating when you think you hear a scream or a yell, and you can't find where it's coming from, and then you wonder if your failure to find it means you're letting someone get hurt. I called the cops about three times in a previous apartment for a couple living above us, because they'd yell then it sounded like someone was being slammed into the floor repeatedly. I couldn't hear what was going on clearly, so I'd rather be safe than sorry in those cases

I think I know where I stand on this one and it makes me feel like shit. When my brother was getting radiation therapy he (and the rest of my family) would stay at a apt. a few blocks away from the hospital. There was another family of patients in the apt. below us that would get into very loud altercations every night. The husband would start scream and then you would hear *thump* *thump* and then the sound that can only be described as an animal crying out in pain. We thought he was beating the shit out of their dog but it turns out that they didn't have one. When we were leaving they invited us to say goodbye and only then did we notice that they had two young sons with them.

Still not sure who the dad was abusing but I do know that we didn't do a damned thing about it :\

I dunno, I figured that as a product of abuse I would have a stronger backbone in situations like that but I didn't.

Harry Lennix's comments on The Butler:
http://blogs.indiewire.com/shadowan...-on-lee-daniels-the-butler-and-it-aint-pretty

"... For example Lee Daniels sent me the script for that film he’s making now, The Butler, about the black butler at the White House. I read five pages of this thing and could not go any further. I tried to read more of it, and I’m not a soft spoken guy, but it was such an appalling mis-direction of history in terms of taking an actual guy who worked at the White House. But then he “niggerfies” it. He "niggers" it up and he gives people these, stupid, luddite, antediluvian ideas about black people and their roles in the historical span in the White House and it becomes… well... historical porn. I refused."

"And people want to see these images so they’ll say things like: “It’s a very difficult movie to look at, but it’s great movie.” That’s a contradiction in terms. That’s a paradox. It can’t be that it’s a great movie, but it’s difficult to look at. You know what I mean? (laughs) Why would you put these images out there? But clearly the critics, many of them, love to see this kind of material and love to see us in these types of roles."

"Because it feeds into the great lie that is being perpetrated by the most important medium, the most powerful export that the United States has to offer which is entertainment. The most powerful tool that they have and it has kept us in a place, men in dresses and things, raping their daughters and things. While any sort of aberrant behavior happens in any community, it has become normative in black cinema that we are these bestial, deprived people, and I refuse to play with that."
