Are You Flickin Serious?


Hopefully none of my godchildren will request this one, cuz I refuse to buy it and would hate seeing them enjoy it. Check out the Flickin Chicken game. Yeah, flickin...chicken.
Don't think too hard now, or you'll lose the point of the game.
It comes with a frisbee shaped dart board and 4, count em 4, rubber chickens. Not special rubber chickens, I'm talking the corny joke,Fonzy the Bear rubber chickens.
That's it.
Throw the frisbee dart thingy and wherever it lands is where the game will be. Cuz then you toss a chicken. At the dart thingy. On the floor.
After NINE ROUNDS of that bullshit the player who gets the LOWEST score wins the game.
I've found 3 good reasons why I'm offended. Ya'll just choose one.
1. It's a recession. The last thing we need to teach children is how to waste good chicken.
2. I dunno how kids feel bout this,but in a world where 6 year olds have cell phones & can practically install their own cable, tossing chickens at a frisbee is stupid. I don't care how imaginative children are SUPPOSED to be, this would suck. Man this sucks worst than the 18th round of tic tac toe, or marbles. God I hated marbles.
3. Look, I'm Black okay? Random chicken throwing hurts my stereotyped heart.

Not to mention the retail price is bout $25. Man that's enough for a fifth of drank, a chicken dinner and bus fare. Of course that's not a child's definition of a good time, but someday, it might be...
Back on topic. Ppl, ever since the Pet Rock manufacturers have been able to get hard earned money out of parents everywhere for some of the dumbest toys ever. So dumb they're almost offensive lol. So ppl be aware of what you buy, especially for your kids. I mean, you buy them stupid shit,they start to appreciate stupid shit. Cuz this game ain't creative, it's chicken shit! Get it? Okay I'm done.

Ridiculous

DJ Tapedek...legend and friend. Rest In Peace


Christian Hales, aka DJ Tapedek made his transition last week. He was a good friend of mine and musical genius. His music blended jazz, hip hop, and international influences. (All my followers, you may remember his music being featured under "Chicago Hawt Shyt" on the blog) If you haven't heard/seen his work you've missed out.
Check out afterscoolsociety.bandcamp.com to download his discography from Afters Cool Society for free.
Chris, I miss the hell outta you. My tater tot pimp, I'll see you when I too reach that better place.

Earthquake hits Turkey

Over 50 people killed in a 6.0 magnitude earthquake that hit eastern Turkey early this morning.About 80 aftershocks measured between 5.5 and 5.8, all happening around 4:30 am.
Though Turkey has a history of earthquakes, including one in 1999 measuring 8.0 and killing almost 20,000 people, I can't help but feel a little fear as to what this earth REALLY has in store for us. I never use religion as a base for future world destruction; I see human beings destroying earth with my own eyes. So, with a heavy heart I'd like to show you what's happening overseas. I'm sure this won't get as much press as the other earthquakes. All these natural disasters aren't what's "in" anymore.

How I REALLY Feel About Black Men Dating White Women...

(Re-posted from Facebook)
Ok. Whew.
I dunno. I just don't know. But I do feel like this.
Black women: Don't complain bout brothas having relationships with white women cuz most of ya'll find no shame in a Black woman dating a white guy. I hear ya'll in the salons. Alot of ya'll also refer to "these niggas" as not "being shit" alot too.
Black men: Don't be talking about you've tried and just can't seem to find a Black woman who supports you. You happen to find a white girl you're into, that's cool. But your reasons reflect you as a person. If your true preference is a Black woman then you man up and spend time finding the right Black woman. Now if your true preference is open, then be about that. But trust it's good Black women out there, so if you're going to date outside your race, don't use that as a reason.
I don't care. I feel Black people have a long way to go before demanding who the next one can date. We need to work on ourselves so we can shine our natural light and attract each other. True love has no color, that's just how it is. But what we can change is how we love ourselves thus changing how others view loving us. Black people, that is.
Peace
