This N' Can't Be Serious...





Steve Nash is a fucking clown... LOL

Jay-Z - "Blueprint 3"

Props to the homie Just on this one...


I've Always Had a Thing for Rosie Perez...

...it's unexplainable...

I mean, she has an average face, a less-than-stellar movie career (besides Do The Right Thing, White Men Can't Jump and Pineapple Express has she done anything else?) and maybe the most annoying voice to ever come to cinema... sure, her body is cool but I mean, it's nothing I haven't seen on a million other chicks...

So damn, what is it about her?



...




...





...



It's her nipples, B...
Rosie's nipples stay on All-Madden (hard)... I mean everytime I see her, them things is just poking up at me like "Hi!" It's a small thing but it makes all the difference... I don't even know what it is about hard nipples that are so sexy... I mean, it's one thing when you know your chick is aroused and that's why her nipples are standing up... but what about when it's just cold outside? LOL... like I said...

...it's unexplainable...



Ya'll be easy...

Little League World Series

Am I the only one who just really doesn't care about the LLWS? I mean, sure it's little kids playing baseball but who really cares? Regular baseball is boring as fuck... it's not going to all of a sudden become interesting just because it's little kids playing... bullriding isn't all that interesting but if you had little kids doing it, I still wouldn't watch...

Ok, that's a bad example because that would probably be funny as hell but my point is this... ESPN, STOP SHOWING THIS BULLSHIT... this is right up there with poker, the spelling bee and the hot dog eating contest... sure it's competitive but who really gives a fuck?

This Dude is Incredible...

I've had Wale's music on my computer for a minute and for whatever reason, I'm just now getting around to listening to homie... he automatically got a co-sign from me because he's an NTer but after finally giving his music a real listen, I see the genius of his art... if you don't have any Wale, I'm telling you right now, get up on him...

TV and Movies Gave Me a False Sense of the World...

Only on TV and in movies, does Steve Urkel know any and every celebrity (circa 1992 or whenever that show came out)... This dude was the corniest nigga ever but always had the dope connects... anytime there was a concert in town, this nigga knew them... and not only did he know them but he would just have them show up at the crib like it was nothing... today it would be the equivalent of me saying "Oh Jay-Z... yeah I know the homie... I mean I can have him come through and make some cheesesteaks if ya'll want... it's nuffin'..." Shit like this made me mad... the few pseudo-celebs I know act like a nigga can't even get an IM on Facebook, much less a special guest appearance at my neighbor's crib...

Only on TV and in movies, do the nice guys win... in every teen-comedy-drama-flick, the good dude ALWAYS gets the girl... even after she fucks him over and makes him feel like shit, in the end, he gets those cakes... shit, even Steve Urkel finally got Laura... this shit NEVER happens in real life... LOL... good dudes finish last... in my head, things always play out according to what happened in television and movies, but it never goes that way in reality...

Only on TV and in movies, does the no-good cousin come from out of town and get reformed... I've seen this in many TV shows... the good family (Cosbys, Winslows, etc.) will have a ne'er-do-well family member who comes to visit the crib and by the end of the show, they got this nigga singing hymns about flowers and converting to Islam... it's just not realistic... the same dudes who was doing work back in 96 are still doing the same in 2009 unless they've been killed or gone to prison...

Only on TV and in movies, does nobody ever fart... I just think that's strange... LOL

Only on TV and in movies, does the random "ugly chick who's only featured in one episode" get a makeover and all of a sudden, this chick, who's NEVER had a boyfriend in her life, has every nigga available tryna get in her vagina-panties... come on, B... 1) how often do chicks get makeovers? LOL... same people I know who been ugly are STILL ugly... and 2) being ugly has never kept a chick from getting holla'd at... if you're giving up the cooch, niggas are gonna get at you... I mean, who are we kidding...? And what's really good with people being like "I know you look good now but I love you for what's on the inside..." Nigga, shut your ass up... you wasn't tryna holla at her when she was looking like Bruce Smith in the face... don't act like you been into her this whole time and just ain't been sayin' shit...

Only on TV and in movies, do regular dudes have cards where they can be contacted... I ALWAYS see this shit in movies... a dude meets a chick, they confab and he ends up getting her number by her giving him her card... who the fuck has cards with their personal information on them? LOL... like, unless I'm just getting so much pussy that I'm getting a cramp in my hands by continously writing down numbers, I can't see any purpose in paying to have cards printed up with my phone number... I wish I would give a chick a card with my number on it... she'd probably look at me like I'm crazy... LOL...

Only on TV and in movies, can a dude interrupt a wedding and take the bride without nobody really objecting... let me tell you something right now... if I'm at the altar and some nigga hops up talking about "No, Nicole... marry me and not him!" and she goes for it, I'm bodying everybody in attendance who doesn't object... LOL... how you just gonna hop your ass up and think it's all gravy for you to take my fiance? "Allow me to introduce you to the chopper..."

Only on TV and in movies, does a nigga have two dates for the prom/night/formal event... let's be serious... how often does this shit happen? And this is coming from a dude who's had to "balance" several different women at a time... it's really not that hard to keep your chicks separate... so how a nigga on TV can manage to get caught up by asking two chicks to the prom is beyond me... what usually happens is homie will ask Girl 1 and for whatever reason (she gotta wash her hair, her dog died, her great Aunt on her dad's side is coming to town that night) she can't go... so homie asks Girl 2, she says yes... the hour before the event is supposed to start Girl 1 pops up like "oh nah, it's all good... I can go now..." Ok first off, at this point, all dude has to say is "I already made plans... let's get up later on" but nah, what does he do? This simp-ass nigga posts up at different parts of the spot and hopes they don't run into each other... he'll spend five minutes with each and then go to the other chick and vice versa... it ends up being a clusterfuck of a date and at the end, he gets caught up... I've never seen this shit happen EVER... LOL

Only on TV and in movies, does the mom have a job but you NEVER see her actually at work... what the fuck does Harriet do? I don't know... I know Aunt Viv was a professor but did you ever see her professoring besides that one episode where Will and Carlton were learning black history? The ONE exception I can think of is Claire... she got it in with that lawyer shit... if a black woman works, trust me, she will tell you that shit... LOL... if she gets two jobs, you'll hear about it THREE TIMES as much... they would just come home and sit there and listen to the random stories of their husbands...

Only on TV and in movies, does somebody throw a pie, miss and hit the one person they really shouldn't hit... first offf, who the fuck really throws pies? I've been around pie all my life and never thrown one at a person... especially not one full of whipped cream? Can that even really be considered a pie? That's just a pie crust with cream on top, right? Ok, this one has gone on way too long...

Only on TV and in movies, do people get jobs in a day... have you ever been job hunting? That shit is the worst... and even the most qualified applicants take weeks before they get hired... I ain't never had ANYBODY I know just wake up one day, go out and get a job and then come back to the crib like "I start tomorrow!" Maybe it's just me...

Speaking of that, only on TV and in movies, do niggas get an advance from their boss... unless you get paid under the table, your boss ain't giving you an advance on a paycheck... because if he did, I'd ask for 10 months in advance, quit and laugh all the way to the bank...

Only on TV and in movies, does the team with absolulely no discernable talent beat the team with every superstar in the city... ever seen Little Giants? That is the most ridiculous movie I've ever seen... it would be the equivalent of the worst high school team in North Carolina beating the New England Patriots... did you see those two teams? Their best player was a fullback with a skirt on... let's be serious, B... the little Giants would've gotten GANG-RAPED in a football game... it wouldn't have been close at all... I'm talking 2349-0... I mean, heart can only get you so far, B... LOL... at the end of the day, if you suck, you suck... the same goes for teams that are garbage at the beginning but end up winning the championship... how is that you couldn't even make a lay-up in October and by February, you're Kobe Bryant and shit? Come on, B...

Only on TV and in movies, do people cut off the TV when somebody walks in the room and talks to them... I've never understood why this happens... LOL... whenever I'm at the crib and Nicole comes home, I say "hey babe" give her a kiss and go back to watching TV... what purpose would it serve to cut the TV off?

Only on TV and in movies, do stray bullets miss every adult on the block but the smallest target (a child) gets shot right between the eyes... listen, I know little kids catch strays on a daily basis but it's ridiculous that there's 10,000 grown men posted on the block, and they get 43,209 bullets thrown their way from a moving car and NOBODY gets hit except for the little boy who's playing with the chalk on the sidewalk... LOL...

Only on TV and in movies, does a man dress up like a woman or vice-versa to get something accomplished... this just never happens... or maybe it does and we just don't know? Hmmmmmmmmmm...

R.I.P. DJ AM


There's really too many celebs dying these days... by no means am I a friend of DJ AM but this dude gets so much love on NT, I'd feel wrong not to speak on it... for those that don't know, dude was a true sneakerhead (as you can tell by the pic) and what's really sparking this post is not only his death but people's reactions to his death...

Like I said, NT gives this guy a lot of love because he was one of the OG members... never came off wrong to anybody and was always real humble... and while it gets under my skin anytime people don't respect the dead, this time really bothered me in particular... it seems that some people think he shouldn't get any respect because he allegedly died of a drug overdose (dude used to be into drugs real heavy but has been sober for the past nine years, I think it was...)... people are feeling like he got a second chance at life (he survived a plane crash last year) but squandered it because of this drug overdose... and people are talking wild greazy about him and that shit just doesn't sit right with me...

Like I said, I'm not a friend of his and I wouldn't pretend to be but how can you feel like somebody doesn't deserve your sympathy and respect because of how he died...? The alleged story is that him and his girl broke up so he ODed... now to me, that's a sad story... as somebody who's been VERRRRRRRRRRRRY close to the edge before (usually because of a girl) I can relate... I mean, there are some people who deserve to die... for example, if you're playing on train tracks and you're just having so much that you don't hear, see or feel the fucking train coming then you deserve to be blindsided by that motherfucker when it comes... to me, this is something completely different... depression hits a lot more than people give it credit for (those commercials that say "depression hurts everywhere" are for real, B...) and I'm not even trying to excuse the homie for what he did but I can say this much:
I understand.

And to all you bitch-ass niggas talking crazy like "What's gonna happen to his shoes? What size did he wear?" or "I got no respect for a junkie" can eat a dick... and that's real... got a problem with it, come see me...




RIP DJ AM

"Still smellin' crack in my clothes... don't make me have to relapse on these hoes..." -- Jay-Z


What's good blogfam? Damn, it's been a minute... I wish I could say I was off on some lavish vacation in some exotic place with big-tittied, plump-asseded women feeding me strawberries the size of softballs... the truth is, I haven't been doing shit... LOL

For the past few weeks, my days have been full of chillin' with wifey, playing Madden 10 and being a general slob... but your favorite blogger is back and doing what he does best... the other blog is still gonna continue but I'm definitely going to be on this jawn more on the day to day... school's back in session and it's my last semester (barring some unfortunate accident/oversight)... I only have classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays, so the other five days will be pretty blog-heavy...

I must say I was pleasantly surprised by how many people hit me up like "what's good with the blog, B? You slackin'..." It's always great to get love from the people you care about the most... so to Christina, Paige, TeeTee, Melz, Yuck'em, Tony Pop and all my people on Twitter who were asking, I'm telling you ret now... Hard Work is back on his Blogger shit...

You already know!!!!!


Sincerely,
Your boy HW

I Gotta Go... I Gotta Leave...

When I first started this blog, it was simply to express myself... it was about the release... like I say in my profile "I just have more things to say than I have people to listen..." then it became about the comments... what were people saying about what I was saying...? Did they think I was funny? Did they think i was crazy...? Then I got a page counter and it became about my views and how many blogs I could put up in a month to keep the fans at bay... it became about the numbers...

Now, I look at my blog and I don't recognize it... there was a point where, I'd only put things on here that I felt I could provide some insight on... then it got to a point where I'd just throw random shit up here... YouTube videos with no commentary... random facts... BULLSHIT...

I've lost my way... it's come to this... Where the World Goes When I Close My Eyes is shutting the fuck down...










































Aight, I'm bullshitting... I ain't going nowhere... LOL... I do feel like the blog needs to undergo some changes though... that being said, until I figure out exactly what I want to do, I am gonna chill a little bit, JUST A LITTLE BIT on posting... by the time I get back to school next Saturday, things will be up and running at a normal pace... in the meantime, I've started a new blog about my relationship with Nicole...

I've never been one to air too much on here about my relationship and the times I did mention her, I would almost cringe because I didn't want people to be like "Damn, he's always talking about his girl..." LOL... the fact of the matter is this... this other blog "The She and The I That is Us" is simply a laundry list of postings of random things I need to get out... most of it's good, some of it's bad... it is what it is... it's a relationship blog... I felt that putting these posts on a separate blog makes them into a separate entity... it's its own beast, so to speak... I'm never going to go into great detail but I still feel it provides some great insight on why I think the way I do when it comes to relationships and also opens the floor for some helpful commentary...

In any event, if you feel like this blog is slowing down too much for your taste over the next week, park your ass over at http://www.relationshipsarehardwork.blogspot.com/ and get your fix... I might throw up a few more posts today (Doo-Wop's supposed to be coming this weekend so there will be pictures galore if that still goes down...) but like I said, don't be surprised if you don't hear from me until next week...

SIGNING OUT.


Your boy,

6 Random Facts about Me

So I was over at K-Dub's blog and she requested that I present six random facts about me that were interesting... LOL... never one to back down from a challenge, I present to you...





6 RANDOM FACTS ABOUT HARDWORK919

1. When I was in like the fourth grade or so, my mom bought me a pair of girl's shoes to wear from a thrift store... I don't know how much they were but I do remember they were white, with a teal check and a little purple (by 2009 standards, that's not that bad since, a dude can rock a pink shoe and nobody says anything but this is like 1994... LOL) I had to wear these shits everyday and I was mad embarrassed... but what could I do? We were poor... a few weeks later, I was over at my grandma's house and found a pair of some black Nike jawns... they were a little worn but were clean and about a size too big... I asked her if I could have them and she said yes... I went home and threw the other shoes away... LOL

2. I used to make money street-fighting back when I younger... I always hung out with older guys and they taught me how to fight and eventually, they got me involved in this little boxing tournament they had around the neighborhood... they would pay me $5 for every fight but I'm sure they bet extra money on me or something... they would last all day and at the most, I'd come home with MAYBE $20... it was always fun though... surprisingly, I still remember my record: 79-2-5... LOL... one of the fights I lost, I STILL say I should've won and the other loss was to a guy who was three years older than me (that was supposed to be against the rules but whatever...) I just made a post about this on NT and people thought I was making it up...

3. Even though I haven't taken ANY business classes (yet) and I'm graduating in December with a bachelor's in English, I plan to open up at least fifteen businesses by 2030...

4. I really don't have an interest in cars... I mean, sure I like some cars by how they look... but I don't know really anything about them... like I don't know what a V-12 is... well I know what it is but I don't what makes it that different from a V-6... I DO know how to change a tire however... LOL... but I don't know what's so great about engines...

5. I once ate an entire extra-large pizza from Domino's (Paige STILL gives me hell about this to this day)... it was 2007 and I was living in Greensboro at the time... I was staying with my ex Melissa and on Saturday nights, she would go out with her girls, so I would stay in, watch football on the DVR and order pizza or chinese food... this particular night, I couldn't wait for her to leave so I could order this pizza and I don't know what made me get a XL but I did... I ended up ordering a Philly Steak & Cheese... I didn't want her to find out I had ordered it, so I HAD to eat all the evidence... LOL... needless to say, I was sick when I finished... it was good though...

6. I have a secret desire to make movies... (not THOSE kind of movies) but like serious films... I probably never will other than some low-budget jawns but I have a good 70 scripts just laying around (figuratively of course... they're all on my computer... LOL)


So there you go, K-Dub... six facts just for you...

Brazilian Show Does Its Own Murders to Boost Ratings

And people say the US is bad? This show was based around being the first on the scene... kinda like a First 48 I guess... the thing is, they started actually murdering people... I wish I could say I was lying... people are CRAZY, B... I mean, this is the equivalent to a show like Intervention going out and hooking people on drugs... well not exactly, but you get my point... that's just insane... I used to have Brazil on my list of places to visit but fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck that... I ain't tryna get clipped up so some TV show can get more viewers...

The Dopest Book Ever

This is an actual book... the funny thing about it is, it's just the cover and 100 blank pages... how dope is that? For the dense ones* that just means, there's nothing better than boobs** hence the blank pages... most people probably think that's corny but I think it's actually kinda interesting... once I get a coffee table, this is going on there...










(*You know who you are...)

(**Personally, I prefer a big booty to big boobs, but that's just me... I think you definitely have to have a little bit of both though... a flat chested chick with a big booty is just as unattractive as a chick with major boobs and zero cakes... in any event, this is still a dope idea for a book... LOL)

Random Text of the Day

"Ladonna is an ugly name"--Christina

She just sent me this outta nowhere... LOL... there was no pretense for this and no story to follow... simply a random and nonsensical thought... ya gotta love that girl...

Jesus...

My dude is effectively shitting on the game right now... those high top Pumas are the biz...

Power Walking...


Why do people power walk? Besides looking absolutely ridiculous, are there any benefits to power walking that either jogging or regular walking don't accomplish? It just doesn't make any sense to me... can anybody shed some light?

Weddings...



Hannibal and Myshell's wedding HD from tonje Nordgaard on Vimeo.






I enjoy wedding shows... I'm man enough to admit it... shows like Bridezillas, Platinum Weddings, I can fuck with simply because they're average people... I hate watching celebrity weddings because it's always seemingly about the "show" that comes with being married... they never even seem to be happy about being married... just happy that all eyes are on them... when it comes to Bridezillas and Platinum Weddings, you can at least see the joy on people's faces...

So I came across this wedding on another blog and I thought it was interesting... I always think it's weird when people do some extra shit when it comes to weddings but then I have to realize that people like different things... so while I'm really not fucking with the feathers on the eyelashes or the black-pink motif, I think it's dope to get married in a fashion that pleases only you and is about your love and your marriage instead of the hoopla that goes along with a wedding...

Random Thoughts on Relationships...

My friends constantly hit me up with different stories about relationships... and as I've said since day one, I will never air out somebody's dirty laundry for lulz... that's just not me... if I was going to subject my readers to anything about my friend's lives, it would be in complete anonymity so unless you address the situation (i.e. "HW, how you gonna tell ALLLLLLLL my business like that?") no one would know who I was talking about... so that's gonna be the basis of today's blog... I've been meaning to do this for a minute but I haven't gotten around to it... if you're reading this and think/assume this story is about your personal situation, like I said, don't think I'm doing this just to be funny... I'm just trying to provide some insight for you or someone who might be in a similar situation...


Random Thought #1
That brotha is not gonna change... when you first met him, he was trying to fuck... you thought it was cute back then because you'd just gotten out of that other relationship and you wanted to feel good about yourself... you let him fuck and now you're mad that everytime he calls you, it's because he want to do just that... but how can you be surprised? I mean this with the utmost humility: EVERY DUDE IS NOT LIKE ME... lol... am I the type to fuck on a first date? Yes... but I wouldn't treat you like a smut and/or not call you afterwards... most dudes will treat you like a smut though... so don't be surprised if you give a dude the cakes on the first night and then decides you're never going to move past jump-off status...

Random Thought #2
Stop thinking that you need a boyfriend/man/husband to be happy... you don't...
if there's one thing another person can't do, it's be your sole means of happiness... I'm with Nicole because she MAKES me happy... not because she MADE me happy... you feel me? I was perfectly fine not being in a relationship before I met her and despite how I feel about her, I would still be happy if for some reason we didn't work out... that's not to say I wouldn't be hurt over it at first... but I don't forsee myself never being happy again... I understand you don't wanna be lonely and I'm not telling you to be... when I was single, I was always dating... I was hardly ever alone... I'm not saying I was fucking a bunch of different people... but it was nothing for me to take a girl to the movies on Tuesday afternoon, chill with another chick on Tuesday night and then go to dinner with somebody on Wednesday night... I don't see the harm in that if you're single...

Random Thought #3
Stop being such a huge bitch... how can you say you want a man but you're a fucking asshole to every dude you come across because you think they're all out to hurt you...? Herein lies the problem... stop giving your heart to every dude you meet with a nice smile and some money in the bank... you go out on one good date and you're ready to make a nigga your boyfriend... then after a month, you find out he's fucking somebody else and you feel like he's a hoe for it... but that shit's not fair... you have to realize that just because your heart is in it that doesn't mean his heart is in it... this is where communication comes in... this goes into RT#4

Random Thought #4
STOP PLAYING ALL THESE DAMN GAMES!!! This shit should really be Thought 4-15 but I don't wanna do it that way... I'ma just say this... if you like somebody, fucking tell them... you expend all this extra energy going through a nigga's phone records, Facebook page, mutual friends just to see if a dude is feeling you instead of just asking... stop making arguments just to get some attention...

Random Thought #5
Stop looking for what's wrong with people... everytime you meet a good dude, the first thing you do is try to figure out what's wrong with him instead of focusing on his positives... like when I first met Nicole, she just couldn't get over the fact that I was only five-foot-eight... LOL... and me, I've been this height since LITERALLY the third grade, so it doesn't bother me but it was clarly something that she felt was a bad thing and she just wouldn't hush about it... I've never understood why women do this... this dude will be perfect but they'll say some dumb shit like "well, he's just a janitor..." do janitor's paychecks not cash just like yours? Just because that's what he's doing now doesn't mean that's what he plans to be doing forever... at least the nigga has a job... LOL... Stop looking through the nigga's phone waiting to find something that (out of context) doesn't add up... just because she said "hey sweetie" in a text, you're assuming that him and this chick just HAVE to be fucking... maybe she calls everybody sweetie... stop trying to justify going through somebody's phone by saying "well if you don't have anything to hide, it shouldn't be a problem..." What ever happened to trusting the motherfucker you lay up under every night? I've always said if you can't trust somebody, then don't be with them... you can't trust somebody based on what you've seen... you put your friend in a room with your man and he didn't wind up fucking her, so now you trust him... that's not how it works... you simply have to believe in the character of the person you're with or it's not going to work...

Random Thought #6
Stop giving these
"I'm not telling you what to do but..." quasi-ultimatums... Nicole does this but I've had people do it way worse... this is when ya'll are arguing and it comes up that they don't like something (usually it's SOMEBODY) and it becomes "Well, I'm not trying to tell you who you can be friends with but if you keep being friends with her, we're not going to be together..." LOL... and women, for whatever reason, feel like that's not basically giving a ultimatum when it can't be seen as anything but that... you think because you say "I'm not trying to tell you what to do" at the beginning that it's not the same thing? This goes back to number four... just say what you want and quit trying to sugarcoat it...

Random Thought #7
Stop talking about how you HAVE to be married by 30 or it's gonna be a problem... since when does love have to happen by a certain time or it's somehow less valid...? I understand the whole risk of having babies after 30 and all that comes with it but if you want to have a kid that bad, then just go ahead and have it... if you don't wanna have it out of wedlock then guess what? YOU CAN'T HAVE YOUR CAKE AND EAT IT TOO (Note: I've never understood this quote because it doesn't make any fucking sense... why would I want to have cake if I couldn't eat it...? That's just dumb as hell... what purpose does cake serve just sitting on my fucking counter? But I digress...) Putting a time limit on love is an assured way to wind up in divorce court... marry because you love someone... not because you met them on your 28th birthday and feel like you're running out of time...



I guess that's all for now... I'm sure I'll be back with more later on...

An Oldie but a Goodie...

Are You Someone's 80%?

I've had a revelation... for the first time ever in my life, cheating makes sense to me... you're reading that right... for the first time ever, I actually understand what would compel a person in a completely happy relationship to risk it all by fucking it away on some random piece of ass... it actually came to me in the form of a movie...

The movie is Why Did I Get Married... a Tyler Perry flick... I haven't finished the movie (I saw a good 45 minutes at Nicole's aunt's house but we left before the ending) and I still feel like I've gotten a good sense of what the movie is about... there's one part where a character mentions something to the affect of "Marriage is all about the 80/20 ratio... in most marriages, your significant other will give you 80% of everything you need out of a wife... that being said, when you're missing that 20% and you see someone who possesses it, it makes that 20% that much more appealing... but if your wife finds out, you've just lost 80% for that 20% you thought you needed..." Now of course, I'm paraphrasing but hopefully you get the gist of it... this is what made me understand cheating...

Too often people never seem to be happy with what they have and are always looking towards what they feel is entitled to them... when you consider that no one on this earth is perfect, it's easy to see why a person would cheat... if your wife is giving you 80% of what you need and there's another chick who's willing to give you that other 20%, that's 100% of what you need... so if you have a good woman who's beautiful, smart, successful, cooks for you, loves you despite all your bullshit but won't suck your dick to save her life... buuuuuuuuuuuut her friend will gladly suck the skin off that thang, you have everything you need... to some, it's necessary to get that 100% no matter the risk... for others (like me) you can deal with not having that 20%...

So after discovering this gem of sorts, it made me wonder... am I someone's 80%? It seems that I am... I haven't asked Nicole if I was hers but I'm going to assume that I am since we're talking about moving in together, marriage, kids, etc... but it made me think back to when I was dating my exes... did THEY think I was their 80%? Do they now? It's not like I'm wondering that because I want them or anything like that but I just wonder if it was a case of where I was their 80% and they chose to leave for a 20% nigga... or if I was just never an 80% dude to begin with... I guess only they can answer that...

I guess it really doesn't matter in the end because I am who I am and for the most part I'm happy with myself... I understand the kind of person I am and a large part of me is on some "if you don't like me, too fucking bad" type shit... I can only be me, B... LOL...

"Hate it or love it, the underdog's on top..." (c) The Game

Let it also be noted that just because you're someone's 80% it doesn't necessarily mean that you'll be everyone's... different people value different things... some people might see financial stability as a 40% thing while others might see it as just 5%... I think if I had to break it down for myself... it would be 25% attractiveness, 30% personality, 15% potential and 30% compatibility... now that's just for me... your numbers might be a little different and you might have more or less categories but I think that's what works best for me...

Ok... I'm done on my random rant... LOL...

LMAO

I know it's wrong but my dude leg-swept the FUCK outta this chick... LMAO

LMAO

Can Someone Explain this Picture...?

Even Though I Laughed...


EMBED-Professor Nails Class Clown - Watch more free videos
...I wish one of my professors would pull this shit...

The Soloist

Maybe it's just me... but this movie wasn't all that great... I mean, the storyline could've been examined a little more but the presentation of the movie was wack... not to menion Jamie Foxx looked about as horrible as I've EVER seen a person in a movie look... LOL... my dude should've gotten an Oscar just for that alone...

Hell Hath No Fury...

So this dude was cheating on his wife and had multiple mistresses so they set dude up and superglued his genitals (I'm not sure to what... the story doesn't say... LOL) but in my opinion, that's kinda fucked up... LOL... I've been cheated on and left for other dudes on multiple occassions but it's never crossed my mind to superglue a chick... I guess I just feel like there's too many other cakes out there for me to get to the point where I have to do physical harm to someone...

Now I understand this whole "hell hath no fury like a woman scorned" thing but why is it necessary to even go there? If the tables were turned, I don't think things would be judged the same way... if a dude sliced a chick up because she cheated, women would be marching in the streets about how bad of a man he probably was, how he probably cheated on her first, how it was way too extreme for him to do any type of physical harm to any woman... but whenever a woman does it to a man, it's always justified... it's always on some "men ain't nothing but dogs," women-do-everything-right-and-men-do-everything-wrong-type shit... and I understand how some dudes act but I still think it's wrong for women to justify physical harm with this whole cheating shit... if a person is cheating on you, it's not always because they have a character flaw... it could be something you're not doing...

I'm just saying...

What a Waste...

So after all that shit, they're still fucking anyway? What a waste of time...

Vacation...

What's good blogfam? Please excuse my hiatus but your favorite blogger's favorite blogger was taking a much needed vacation...

FRIDAY
Friday was the last day of summer classes and it was so whirlwind, I don't even remember half of it... I woke up DUMB late for my final, got to class 2o minutes after it started, but somehow, still beat out 90% of the class in finishing it... LOL... after that, ran back to the crib and packed up the rest of the stuff I had to take to storage... once I got home (after having my cousin Slim keeping us in stitches all the way home with his random jokes... LOL) I went and got a haircut and chilled with Doo-Wop until Nicole got off work... me and Nicole just chilled most of the night... got some Chinese food and some movies... nothing too crazy...

SATURDAY
Saturday started out pretty early... me and Nicole have decided to move in together after I graduate in December, so we've been looking for apartments because she's going to move in now and then I'll just join her after graduation... that has been a process... LOL... I don't know what it is about the places in Durham, but it's impossible to find a nice townhouse/home in our budget... we've found some ok apartments, but neither of us really wanna stay in an apartment so that's kinda useless... that day was just long for no reason because I didn't like any of the places we looked at... after we were done, we found Doo-Wop some clothes and went grocery shopping...

SUNDAY
Sunday we went to Nicole's mom's house for dinner... that was really fun... I guess since I've met everyone already, it was easier for me to just kinda come in without any pressure... her family seemed really happy to see me and I was really happy to see them as well... especially her mom who is pretty cool... she reminds me a lot of my mom (before she started acting out...) and I think her nephews (who might as well be her children) are finally starting to come around a little bit... after dinner, we went and visited her aunt who makes the best lemonade I have ever had... LOL... her aunt is really cool... we were only gonna be there about 15 minutes but we ended up staying for about two hours... we didnt do anything too crazy... just a couple stories, watched some TV... by the time we left, it was late so we just went home and went to bed...

MONDAY
Monday was another crazy day full of house-hunting... we found a place that we might be able to work with... it's nothing too fancy but it's clean, it's cheap and it's safe which is all I really care about...

TUESDAY
Nicole went back to work, so I spent the day cleaning and cooking and sleeping... LOL... I just didn't feel like writing...



And as for today, I've been getting entirely too many comments about me taking some days off, so as always, I'm back for the fans... sorry to have left but glad to know I was missed.... HW is back on his blogger shit...
