How much style did Young Bill Cosby have?

Bill Cosby was cool as fuck. Rick Ross and James Harden still can't fuck with bill Cosby's beard game. I just think after his son's murder and his "daughter's" extortion attempt he became a bitter man. If you look at the stuff he did in his youth it was all love. Now its just abrasive.

Haha! That guy with the phone made it into the OP!

We didn't get to vote on which was our favorite so I picked one I thought would work with the OT (too many did so I flipped a coin LOL)

He's one of the funniest things to happen to us haha

Great job on the new OT, ishi!

Thanks so much! :D

Need to add the Slayven quote to the OP about him saying he wouldn't be the #1 poster in the last OT.

I'll have to find it, but I'll add it (and the picture that follows) as soon as I do.

Nobody is gonna beat Slay tho hahaha
 
Am I a piece of shit for responding to a text saying, "hey I'm going to challenge you to the ice bucket challenge, fyi" with "cool, not doing it or donating though."

Not making my giving decisions based off of who has the best PR campaign.

At this point I am 100% sure most people are not donating shit but doing it like they did the Harlem shake, planking, or all those other internet fads. Its becoming a basic bitch trend (IE if they jump off the bridge I have to too or I'm missing out).

You did the right thing. Contribute/partake in whatever causes you personally like and believe in, not due to peer pressure and what's hot on Twitter all of a sudden.

Awe, BCT. Keeping it real, why I love it here.

I'm glad ALS is getting the word out, but I guess it's not a campaign I'd normally donate to, so I'm not sure why I pour a bucket of ice over myself.

That's polar bear shit. And those people are crazy.

I'm on Shippuden season 1 with Naruto and Co. rescuing Gaara from the Akatsuki.

Why is Neji, a skilled Jonin, running around with two Chunnin under goofy Guy. Tsunade gave Shikamaru, a rookie 13-year old Chunin, his own team for a very dangerous mission. Why is Neji already getting that jobber status? Nearly whupped by a dumb clone.

1. She flat as shit, I don't even think she would qualify for the South Korean Asia contest

2. Didn't she say she wasn't doing the "urban" thing?

She's doing the whatever sales thing. I give her some credit, she's about as upfront about that shit as you can get.

Because Neji's boring, and Shikamaru got that charisma.

Shikamaru a prodigy. I forgot what fight it was explained in vanilla Naruto.

I dunno about charisma, but Shikamaru was a boring background character too.

It's quite subtle, but his appearance was re-designed when he became Chunin to make him look older, tougher and more interesting.

Something something prodigy or whatever
 
No.

But have you truly tried them, or have you been accosted by people throwing watery grits with sugar at you?

I've had only grits made by white people, if that's what you're asking.

It really weirds me out now how little white people season their food. I'm constantly downing stuff in lime juice, tabasco and spices even at the house. I never really put it together until my boyfriend made spaghetti once for himself, a couple of friends and I and it was really well-seasoned. By contrast, spaghetti at our house is usually just the sauce, noodles and beef or turkey.

Naruto manga, great ninja war spoiler
Man, when Neiji died doing some fuckboy shit and Kishimoto couldn't even make it look cool so he had to have Naruto say "wow, Neiji is so incredible." Dude just hated Neiji.

Haha, no. Sugar in grits is just the cause for the greatest division within our ranks.

You're right about seasoning in them though. My favorite way to eat grits is with something a big spicy and/or salty. So I'm all about shrimp, jalapeño and cheddar grits. Or just grits accompanied with some eggs and cheese.

In the original series, the majority of Neji's character was just, 'I am good at stuff.' Shikamaru stood out because he was the disinterested, almost humor character, but he was the one who got his team together and got them to perform. Basically proving that he was a born leader when he was forced into the position where as Neji always seemed more concerned with his own standing.

Shikamaru's one of the few characters in that series that I was really into.

That's a pretty huge spoiler I haven't reached yet. I did read about it online so I'm not mad or anything.

Anyway, so it seems like "no logic" is the answer to my question.

Spoilers so I don't ruin anything for Jado.

Really. Neji was my favorite, next to Gaara. Kishimoto ruined them both when Naruto talk no jutsu'd them. But the way Neji's death happened was so wack.

Did the dude writing it expect people to get sad or something? Like characters dying has been a joke to me the moment that the writer decided to
bring everyone that died fighting pain back to life.

It's a universal thing. My hispanic culture uses a lot of flavorful seasoning. My girlfriend's uses hot spices. American food is just incredibly bland in comparison, even versions of latin dishes, to the point of sometimes tasting quite bad. It's weird.

Kishimoto tried make him the "if only he put a little effort" type of character. Ever since he was a child he was always a prodigy / master tactician.

Talk no jutsu sooooo bullshit.
