Title: Killed over a taco!
Post by: The D on Aug 25, 2007, 01:30:18 PM
Shooting someone to death over the price of a taco in Detroit. (http://www.macombdaily.com/stories/082207/loc_tacoslaying001.shtml)

16 cents = Life in prison?

Black society fails again. :( I blame rap music.

But that guy's beyond the generation profoundly affected by rap.  He's 36.  That leaves the time of his impressionable youth as being around, like, disco, punk, and hair metal.

No, I'm the product of hair metal.

Clearly this is flavor flav's fault.

I once fought a kid because he was sitting in my seat in the junior high cafeteria.

If I had cable, I would have watched the roasting of Flava Flav on Comedy Central.

First off, I would have asked what the deal is with that stupid fucking clock.

For one brief second, I got my hopes up that they were actually physically roasting him.  Dieeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

I watched some of it. I got a good chuckle out of "You look like a Make a Wish Kid wearing a wet suit."

It was ok.  Pam Anderson's was better though.

Pam Anderson's would've been better by default.

They've all actually fallen well short of potential, but each had its moments. Besdies Jeffery Ross and Lisa Lampanelli have to pay the rent somehow.

Lisa Lampanelli is the only female comic I find consistently funny.

I think I know who that is yet I don't.  Which reminds me, Kristen Key from Last Comic Standing came to my school and I missed her.  I found out about it the day after she had already appeared.  BAH!

The big Jewish woman that's whole act consists of how much she likes to fuck black guys.

Late last night I was taking the senic route home when, in my headlights, I saw a black kid of about 10-13 on a bike riding around. If he hadn't been in my headlights I would have missed him completely, because he had no lights of any kind on him.

First thought that came in my head: "What the hell is some pubescent kid doing riding around at 1am?"
Second thought: "Nigga stole my bike!" (http://niggastolemybike.ytmnd.com/)

I stopped by a party store, and every time someone dressed in a do-rag, huge baggy pants, and either a sports jersey or 3x tee, talking ghetto slang, walked in the store, I thought the place might get robbed. The person didn't even have to be black, since a few were white or latino.

Living in metro Detroit makes you racist.


Edit: On a side note...

One of the computer labs on campus always seems to be filled with black people. Although this campus has a pretty average mix of races--majority white but a good percentage of minorities--for some reason this computer lab is almost always about 50-80% black. Makes no sense. And of course most of them have to be the ghetto trash variety. When I was there once, someone a few seats down from me played that "Nigga stole my bike" video game clip full screen, and when he noticed me looking over, grinned at me.

I went to a Dave Matthews concert over the weekend.  Only two of the guys in the band (Dave and bassist) are white, but then they had their opening act, The Roots, join them on stage at one point.  I turned to my friend and yelled, "There are a lot of black people on stage right now!"

Flavor Flav is sooo disgusting! he looks like an anorexic rat. I love New York though. She's a conceited bitch, just like me :-D
