Guerillas In The Polygamist…

mormos

Say what you want about how goofy these broads look, but then also peep the fact that the Texas sheriffs are still clocking their booties.

Whether you want to admit this shit or not, the United States of America was founded on all sorts of deviant and unnatural behavior that was subsequently co-signed by religion. From the mass genocide of indigenous peoples, to the murders of mostly women who were accused of witchcraft, to the chattel slave trade and even the bombing of Iraq. All of this subversive shit has been preceded by someone holding a bible in their mitts.

In a country of 300 million people there is a shitstorm of religions that even I haven’t heard of. I have heard of the Latter Day Saints movement though, and I have heard that some factions support the ideas of polygamy. In the ‘hood we call the chicks that support polygamy ‘babies’ mommas’. And chicks in the ‘hood are way more fashion forward than these ladies. What are those stuffed shoulders all about? I don’t even care enough about this religion to rank on their sartorial style.

Here in Brooklyn you can see enough goofy shit from the different orthodox sects that live here whether they be Muslim, Jewish, Hebrew or Zoroastrian. At least the freaks on this side get to raise their children. I can’t justify moving children away from their parent(s). We all know that it takes a village. Its just that these Mormons in Texas were really ’bout it. If some kids were being harmed or molested then I could see why law enforcement would need to kick in the doors, but these kids are pretty much normal, except for the Howdy-Doody haircuts.

Where were the police when the catholic priests were fingerbanging their parishoners sons?

Keeping It Montreal…

Big up to the Habs’ center SAKU KOIVU who returned to the ice after suffering a broken foot.

Hockey players >>hardbody>> everyone other living mammal.

You have to show love to the Habs when you blow through Quebec and that is what I am doing right now. Chocolate Snowflake decided to treat me to a long weekend at this city along the St.Lawrence River. Montreal is an old school port city like New York, or Philly or even Boston of course. I need to make a run to Boston to see what the lifestyle is like over there.

I already told y’all dudes to get yourself a C.S. in your lifestyle. Go to a museum or an off-Broadway play or some shit. Wear a nice button down shirt and maybe a sweater vest. Take the toothpick and gold fronts out of your mouth. While you have been busy fucking up your whole life she has been reading books that will help you learn shit that you thought you already knew. Impress your friends with your newfound intelligence.

So as I was saying, C.S. brought me to Montreal to catch a breather and experience something fresh and new. I always had love for Montreal ever since JACKIE ROBINSON came here to play for the Dodgers AA affiliate. When Montreal finally got their own team they weren’t too shabby either, word to the Hawk and the Raines man. The 1990’s Expo squad was one of the best teams ever in baseball. Word to that player’s strike in 1995.

Montreal reminded me a lot of Brooklyn. The residences are primarily low rise townhouses and the city itself is built for walking. I found Canada to be a little expensive too, but that is because I am living off my eBay sales right now. Still and all, I blame the Clintons for fucking me over with that NAFTA bullshit. There’s now way Canadien money should be on par with U.S. currency. Their shit looks wild fake.

I thought I would get my D-Nice on and photoblog some of the sights and sites I encountered up north.

I stay repping my lifestyle. Yes, the socks are Ralph Lauren.

C.S. and I traveled the city east, west, north and south with these magic tickets. Montreal has massively swagger jacked Paris and named their subway system the Metro.

True story is that the buses in Montreal run on time though.

Some futuristic alien Logan’s Run shit. You don’t really get the scale of these buildings from these pictures, but my ass was totally impressed[ll]. This complex was built for the Olympics in 1972. Public architecture has been moving backwards ever since every where else. I give credit to Montreal for having the referendums and the resolve to maintain all of this shit. They do tax you in Canada like a motherfucker, but then you have the chance to avail yourself of all this shit if you are a resident.

I have never had a problem with paying for shit as long as I was represented fairly and equally for my taxation.

The former Olympic Centre is now a state managed public fitness complex. I may have lost a few pounds just walking the grounds of this sprawling campus.

koivu

More public architecture that inspires people to be proud and proactive. A government building with a multi-colored glass facade, evoking the principles of inclusion and transparency. What a novel idea for a government?

koivu

The biggest difference between the French Catholics and the Roman Catholics is the fact that the French keep their winged goddesses covered up.

The Italians always seem to have a loose titty or two on a statue.

koivu

Good for Giorgio Armani that he switched up the name of that godawful cologne. I know some Black folks that weren’t having any parts of that ‘Black Code’ bullshit.

koivu

Option#2 public bathrooms are totally deucable.

Shame on a nigga!
For coming into town on the day I am leaving.

koivu

Mount Royal kept it real, but the city I belong to bears the name on my crown.

The Associations playoff seeding is set in stone. The Nuggets won’t be able to beat the Lake Show.

showbee

The MVP award should be given to Showbee over CP3. First place bitches. GARNETT suffers from the Eastern conference being weaker than the SEC.

showbee

I was fucking with these joints, even though I didn’t copp them. Yet.

showbee

But now KOBE is wearing HyperDunks for the playoff run. Damn you NIKE! There used to be a time when they introduced all the new flavor during the All-Star break.

The HyperDunk is NIKE’s lightest shoe evar at just over 13oz. The Lord knows how badly I could use something to make me lighter.

I guess I see where my next check from XXL is going…

Supreme Swagger Jackers…

Wednesday, April 16th, 2008

WTF?!?

The Supreme clothing company lifts only one image from the greatest movie of all time and they don’t even feature a joint with Brother Rabbit? Instead they choose a scene where the brother is all caught up in the bosom of Miss America about to get played out. Brother Rabbit wasn’t having it with that bitch. He knew she was full of tricks, and so was he.

Niggas go in hard for Supreme like them niggas actually know something street. Meanwhile Supreme’s so-called designers are the biggest swagger jacking flavorless motherfuckers on the planet. Their connections to actual, real ‘street’ culture are fraudulent because they paid for their access. Supreme didn’t come up on their shit from some true love for the culture. They bought a bootleg ‘Urban Culture’ pass and use it to cash in for even more by selling their shit to other kids who also need some flavor in their lives and have the ends to pay for it.

On the real, don’t support that clownery.

If anyone has ever seen the movie ‘Streetfight’ then you already know that these niggas from Supreme ain’t representing the real. That t-shirt up there is like using Flavor Flav’s image to represent for Public Enemy instead of Chuck D.

Shit’s disgusting B!

I say shut ’em down, and I’m not talking about Shut skating equipment either.
