I Appreciate Y’all…

I wondered how I might post the final drop from this decade here on the site. Could I remember everyone that I needed to thank for keeping me from stepping off the ledge this year? I could never in a million years remember everybody. Sure there was Combat Jack, Casimir and Rafi that helped me realize my value extended past the obvious. See there, I already fuxed up by naming names. I can’t ignore Meka for making the decision to come to NYC on my advice. Now I wonder when N8 will reloc8?

I have to thank Bol for giving me something to read everyday. I h8 to admit it but I am still Scottie Pippen to his Air Jordan when blogging is concerned. Since we don’t technically play for the same team any longer[ll] I suppose I am the LeBron James to his Kobe Bryant (taking into consideration his inclination for white poon) I hope he doesn’t also have to get a rape charge like Bryant, but that is what the desire of the forbidden racial nectar can do to a brother.

Mentioning Bol makes me remember the homey Carl who held me down at the X-spot and eskay who got me in the door when no one else was fuxing with me like that for real. That is why I tell people that Nah’Right is the big co-sign. They see shit before it becomes a trend or a movement. That reminds me of UnKut and RockTheDub, who both do more for Hip-Hop culture everyday than places like AllHipHop or SOHH (no offense meant, but, yeah).

And how do I thank ALL of you folks that check in with me during your daily routines, on the grizzly, at school, at home, wherever you do your DP.com thing. I appreciate y’all. This page is really yours. I just pay the bandwidth and edit the updates. Y’all truly own this page. SlumB, Grand$ and $yk. Thanks for following me on my exodus from the X-spot. Amadeo, Candice and WWIB. Thank y’all for sticking around even though I don’t nearly leave my IP fingerprints on your pages as much as I should.

Where the hell is that old ass curmudgeon Ernie Paniccioli?!?

Thank you to my sisters from ProperTalks and my longtime leftcoast love Mz.Ahmad. I really appreciate you ladies too much to mention. Thank you for fuxing with me. ADB. Thank you. LM, Christian, Tiffany, Peter, AntWill, Jerz and Gee. I SEE y’all (true confessions… I loved that Avatar shit – lol). JaiSlayer and my lil’ homey Ba’ySlayer. Thank you from the bottom of my heart my brother. You are my real life hero.

I can’t make this drop about individuals however because I will surely forget to mention someone who I consider crucial to this website. We are a group of diverse people with all sorts of backgrounds that found each other however it happened. I love to tell people that the world is a huge place, but the folks that operate under the same sine-cosine frequency is the smaller community of inter-connected networks. Y’all are truly the internets. And that is why I appreciate y’all.

Happy New Year.

I FUX WITH STAR WARS…

Can you imagine fingerbanging this with your solo hand?

Atlanta is the Wal-Mart capital. And Wal-Mart is like Star Wars central. I came up on the ARC Clone Commando that I wanted to put into my collection, but unfortunately it was part of a three(3) figure Wal-Mart exclusive pack priced at $25.

I broke down and went to copp the pack several days after Christmas and unbeknownst to me Wal-Mart was selling the pack on 50% clearance. I ran back down to the toy section and picked up another pack, just because I am a lunatic like that. Now I can open up one pack and examine these figures in depth [ll] and keep one pack sealed on my nerd shit.

I have been really intrigued by these Hasbro figures. I wish the scale were larger, but the articulation and detailing has been sublime. The super bonus in this series is the Elite Commando figure pictured on the right. I didn’t recognize the character from any films because it turns out it was introduced only through the expanded universe.

The figure I had been after from the gate was the Alpha Reconaissance Commando. This is the figure with the heavy blaster rifle and all the armament accessories. This joint is so off the chain in its construction. Hasbro merc’ked this mold. You can take off the helmet too and look at the designer’s rendition of Jango Fett.

The funny shit is that this dude looks like the motherfucker who stays giving me a hard time at the 7-11 on Sunrise Highway. Holy shit. Let me find out that the cloners from Kamino are really doing their operation from behind the Union Carbide plant in Kolkotta?!?

Marvel Studios Stays Winning…

Even though the hairstylist for SCARLETT JOHANNSON didn’t nail the classic Black Widow hairdo, the idea of my WBM (white baby mama) in the Russian spy’s skintight bodysuit is deee fux’n lish.

Iron Man 2 can officially start taking a victory lap thru the multiplex parking lot right now.

I hope Tobey MacGuire makes a Spidey cameo at some point in this film. I will literally shit my pants and put the remains in empty Milk Duds boxes.

The Association’s Rolling Thunder…

I fux with KEVIN DURANT [ll].

Get on this kid’s bandwagon early. He is the future of the Association. I can’t see the OKC Thunder being league champs because where the fux is OKC anyhoo, but Kevin Durant is a special player. Kevin Garnett special. And even smoother than KG. Durant has a wicked handle for a big man and ridiculous range.

Another reason I fux with Kevin Durant is because when he signed his deal with Nike directly out of college one of his requirements for his signature shoe was that it would have a midrange pricepoint. No, his shoes aren’t as cheap as the Starburys but if you play the streets like I do you might could come up on these joints for $40.

One of the Association’s latest fashion trends has been the compression sleeves that various players wear on their shooting arms. I know the league has a requirement for the amount of skin that MUST be visible for players. This is why the players can’t wear the pantyhose on both arms. You know Carmelo Anthony would wear pantyhose all over his body if David Stern would allow it.

The Association’s overall field goal percentage is down so where is the proof that these pantyhose help you shoot? Artis Gilmore never wore pantyhose on his arms. He did however wear tightpants. Artis Gilmore has the greawtest shooting percentage of all time. Kevin Durant does NOT wear pantyhose on his arms.

You can have your Showbean Bryant, I will fux with Kevin Durant.
