TooLong;Didn’tRead Version at the bottom.

WOW. Where do I begin? I know, I’ll start here.

SO, you have females that think I can dance, and you have females that know I can’t dance. (lol, reread that sentence if you need to before going on) With this in mind, I asked a certain friend if she thought I could dance or not. She gave the obvious answer:

“Mark, I’m not going to answer that.”

I laughed, then I urged her for a serious, well thought out answer. And then she gave me something along the lines of the following:

“Well, by yourself, you may be energetic and you can move on beat, and you might even get people hyped to dance sometimes.... but you suck. You can’t dance. However, when you dance with a girl, you obviously know how to move. But, I have noticed that lately you seem to suck at clubs but move really really well at house parties.”

And do you know why I suck at clubs but move really really well at house parties?

The music. The mutha ****ing music.
The music creates the aura, the aura creates the dance. And that’s probably not how it goes, but I don’t care.
Fact of the matter is, clubs ain’t for me anymore. Cause they play ****ty music. For the same $20-40 I can pay to get into a club and buy drinks, I can pay to go to a Super Smash Bros. Brawl tournament and eat, and actually ****ing enjoy myself.


I get down at house parties because the house parties that I go to play music that’s actually worth dancing to and that, if for whatever reason, you feel like not dancing, it’s still really ****ing awesome to listen to. As for clubs.... no. Don’t get me wrong, if there is a club party that’s playing nothing but Caribbean music all night, I’m in there. But as for hip hop? **** that ****. The music sucks, and thus I suck. Sad story, isn’t it?

Well, who’s fault is that? Mine? The club’s? The ******s who make the music? (note the er. That shows disrespectful anger.)

I’m gonna blame it on the ******s who make the music. It’s unfair (maybe?) but I don’t care.

But let’s get on hip hop right quick.... it sucks. Do you want to know why it sucks? It sucks because there is no substance to the music. From the wack *** beat made by putting five electronic sounds to an uninspired beat to the ****test possible lyrics that refuse to make any type of sense, hip hop is ****ing trash and you know it. And if you say I’m hating... yeah *****s, I’m ****ing hating on it all right. And why am I hating on it? Because they making money off this bull**** and I’m not? EX-****ING-XACTLY!
(LOL @ the concept of hating. I’m a get on that as well shortly)

Money is being made via ****ty music. The music is not being made for the love of music, or for the love of hip hop. Noooo, music is being made for money. That’s it. The music that you hear is designed to be “hot” for two days, then you move on to the next “hot joint,” and the next, and the next, and the next. It’s not an art form anymore. It’s just words thrown to horrible music. I call it noise. Shut the **** up please.

And do you want to know who I blame for the ****ty music that hip hop has turned into? 50 Cent. Yeah, that *******. Let me break my hate on this *****. (LOL @ hate)

2002-ish, the ***** comes out with “Get Rich or Die Trying.” I loved that album. ****, I still do. Despite how obviously illegit the song “Heat” is, I still love that ****ing song, among others. Then, 2005-ish I believe, this ***** comes out with the worst ****ing album I had put my ears to at that time, “The Massacre.” AND WHAT A FITTING NAME THAT ALBUM HAD, OH MY! You see, despite how ****ty that album actually is, somehow it managed to rake the ***** 50 in MAAAAAAAAAD money. Obviously not more than GRoDT, but enough where it’s like, “Wow, he made that much money off that trash?” And thus began the slow but sure “Massacre” of what we used to call rap.

You see, mostly everything is based on standards. This ***** 50 had set a new standard with “The Massacre”: Make ****ty albums with ****ty songs and still make a ****load of money off of it.

For the most part, *****s have been doing it ever since.

And I hate the ***** 50 for doing that to hip hop. Now these kids swear the **** they listen to is hot, until they realize that they don’t know the ****ing lyrics or forget the ****ing lyrics once the song goes off the radio for a couple of days... mainly because the brain finds it easier to process smart **** rather than stupid ****.

Oh yeah, the concept of hate, hating, haters, yada yada yada. Hmmm... well, they say that if you have haters then you must be doing something right, right?

Yeah.... or....

MAYBE YOU’RE DOING IT WRONG!

Now, we have to examine this, because this confused me for a bit when I first decided to “hate” on **** openly.
Okay, we have someone who accomplishes something, or is doing something that, in general, is headed towards some kind of positive success. EXCELLENT. I can’t hate on someone who is successful or is trying to be successful.

UNLESS

The means of your success or the means of your way of achieving success are not positive.

Example 1: Rappers of today. I HATE the rappers of today because although they might be “successful,” what exactly entails their means of success? Putting out ****ty record after ****ty record just to meet the supply and demand for ****ty music? I’m supposed to applaud that? No, get the **** out of here. I am not going to like, or respect, rappers putting out ****ty music for money when there are rappers who are putting out good music for little to no money at all. Period.

Example 2: Hitler. That ***** thought he was the Baddest Man on the Planet. (sound familiar?) Not Only did this man think that no one could compete with him and “his kind” (if you know about Hitler, you know why I put his kind in quotes), but he wanted to kill off anyone who could not compete! Literally! Why the rest of the world Hating for? (I’m not going to answer that question)

Example 3: Lakers. Actually, I have no legit reasoning for this. I just want the Magic to win. Lakers did they **** to get to where they at though. So yeah, this point is pointless, just erase this from your memory without hesitation.

The main point here is this: Nine times out of ten, hate is just another opinion. And its the American Way.
(It’s nine times out of ten, but that's reduced from eighteen times out of twenty, because the nineteenth time, the hate is a fact that no one wants to acknowledge and the twentieth time, the hate is just oh so wrong and unnecessary, see example 3)

Which reminds me... my opinion.

It’s not so much that my opinion should be valued more or less than another opinion, if its valued at all. It’s more that... you know... I have a right to my opinion, and that right shouldn’t be taken away just because you disagree with it.

Take for example, that Optimum commercial that, if you in NY, you probably have seen, the one that starts off like a youtube vid, and goes into all of this colorful bull****, yada yada. One day I’m pissed at it, so I look it up, JUST TO LEAVE A COMMENT ON IT THAT SAYS THAT I AM DISPLEASED WITH THE VID. (aka Hate on it) Couple of weeks later, the creator of the commercial leaves me a message along the lines of, “You don’t like my vid? Okay, let’s compare my vid with yours. Oh, you don’t have one. Thus, you should keep your opinions to yourself.”

....
....
...
...

REALLY? WE JUST GONNA SHUT DOWN MY ABILITY TO GIVE AN OPINION BECAUSE I AINT MAKE A COMMERCIAL? (that’s why that commercial don’t show no more, they went back to the original Reggaeton **** because that **** was semi awesome. lol) GET THE **** OUT OF HERE!

Opinions *****s. Learn to respect them. They are only wrong if they are made of a statement of untruth. Examples:
1) I think Kobe has more rings than Michael Jordan. (no dummy, MJ has 6, Kobe has 3 with a possible 4th coming)
2) I believe that the iPod touch and the iPhone are the same thing. (no dummy, one’s a phone, one is not)
3) I think cartoons are better now than they were back in the day. (no dummy, cartoons today have nothing on cartoons in the past)
4) I think 50 Cent is better than Jada Kiss (no dummy, Jada Kiss and company killed that ***** 50 with they had beef, the only reason 50 is still making hits is because of good marketing)

note that Example number 3 is the only legit opinion in terms of its definition (because everyone knows cartoons were better back in the day, durrrr)

Point is, an opinion is not wrong until proven incorrect by means of factual data. Argue with me about why you don’t like my opinion or prove that it is wrong with data. Don’t gimme that ***** *** comment talking about “Well that’s your opinion, I don’t like it, bawwwwww!”

Oh yeah, cartoons. Obviously they suck. Cartoon Network and Nickelodien will never be what they used to be, and is it me, or do you not need to know how to draw to make a cartoon anymore?

And ummm.... animated movies... can someone tell me what was the last 2D animated movie to hit theaters? Because I have no idea what it was.... (lol if it’s a Pokemon movie.)

And Minesweeper sucks. Do yourself a favor and do not lose sanity by playing that game on expert mode.....



WOW. What a rant. I am impressed. I feel soooo much better now. :D

tl;dr version
1) HipHop Sucks, 50 Killed it.
2) Hating is sometimes necessary, ask the US.
3) May I have my 1st amendment rights honored plz?
4) Whatever happened to good cartoons?
5) Minesweeper sucks. You should stop being lazy and read my rant.


Oh yeah, there’s more.

MySpace vs FaceBook.

MySpace is better. FaceBook is just better marketed and wins in terms of marketing, but the layout of FaceBook has gotten dumber and dumber with each upgrade... I mean downgrade. With MySpace, nearly every upgrade kept MySpace familiar, and you can customize practically everything to your liking, including most of the upgrades. FaceBook just has a bunch of upgrades and gimmicks that make it dumb.

But whatever. The people have spoken. They like FaceBook better. :\

And no, we ain’t even gonna speak of twitter.

On a boat.
I agree with this whole thing.

Except the fact that hip-hop/rap was even talked about. That **** is disgusting.

The only music that requires skill to make anymore is GOOD Metal. Not the screamo ****, not the emo ****, not the 50 million different styles of "Core." GOOD METAL.

Metallica
Amon Amarth
Korn
Disturbed
Nightwish
Rhapsody of Fire

Any band that's not Screamo,"Core", or Slipknot/Hatebreed.

And about Cartoons, definitely.

Examples of good cartoons:

Ed,Edd, n' Eddy
Thundercats
Transformers
Voltron
Beavis and Butthead
OLD Pokemon

Anime's rising in popularity. Why? Because THEY KNOW HOW TO DRAW. Look at Flapjack/Chowder/Any other cartoon on Cartoon Network or Nickelodeon.

And don't EVEN get me started on what's happened to Disney...
