It always takes something like that to really snap you out of it though. Who says I snapped out of it? Funny, good point. But I meant while you were home. Disappointed parents is the worst was basically my point. |

Disappointed parents are the worst Sdot. I had a similar story to yours. Middle school years were my worst. I was on a bad path. Started smoking cigarettes in 6th grade, then weed in 7th and 8th grade. Got a school suspension here or there. I really wasn't that bad a kid, I just hung out with the scummiest kids you could find, and I could never say no to anything.
Two memories come to mind when thinking about disappointed parents. One summer afternoon I rode my bike with my buddy to 7-11. We found a 12-pack of budweiser sitting in the sun unopened on the side of the building. There's no telling how long it was there. Well, we were 12 years old and had no idea, so we grabbed a few threw them in our cargo shorts pockets and rode back to my house.
So there I am a chubby, lazy, piece of shit 12 year old drinking beer that I found on the ground in my kitchen when all of a sudden my mom calls. She says that we are banned from AOL for 30 days because I was using lewd and vulgar language. So immediately I was scared.
Back in those days AOL was only used to fuck with people in chat rooms, and to pretend you were like 17 and cyber with some girl pretending she was attractive and older. So I was pretty sure I knew what got me in trouble and it was some fucked up shit. I used to make fun of this girl for being a slut and would always ask her to just blow me or something. I did that a lot, and I can only imagine that AOL clued my mom and stepdad into what I said.
She didn't talk to me for the rest of the summer and for a long time I had to sneak any time on the computer. She wouldn't even look at me.
Second story was about the same time. In what could possibly be a record, I had 4 teachers call my house in one night (and one of them called on behalf of her and another teacher). It ranged from me never doing work, to being a behavioral problem and one of them was lecturing me so I kicked something and walked away. Well I had my mom crying and screaming at me for, in her words, being a "fuckin embarrassment". Talk about a guilt trip. Man that night sucked.
So here's a "would you rather" question. Would you rather have to watch a porn with your parents that you star in at the age you are now, or have your mom read all of this stuff you wrote to someone about the most disgusting sexual terms when you're young knowing you're gonna see her every day because you live with her?

The phone calls from teachers. Those are always the worst. I had this gym teacher back in high school who stood about 5'4" on a good day. He always had it out for me and consistently gave me the lowest grade in gym. Now I was no superstar athlete but I didn't deserve the shitty grades he was giving me. So I had it out with him one day. Said some foul shit. Got kicked out. I knew he was going to call. It was usually about 50/50 that I beat my mother home after school. I was hoping I could get there and delete any message from the answering machine. I get home, run into the house just in time to here my mom listening to the following message, "Hello Mr. and Mrs. Cosmo. Your son said some really disrespectful things to me. He called me and I quote 'a piece of shit God damn midget'. I would like to speak with you about your son's behavior in my physical eduactaion class."
Then I said, "Hi mom, how was your day?" She wasn't happy.

My seventh and eighth grade math teacher was a nun. An old, deaf, bald nun who didn't know any swear words. So we swore at her all the time.
"Here is your homework, child."
"Fuck you, Blister."
"You're welcome, child."
Besides Blister, we called her S.hitster and Grimmace. Her nun outfit made her look like Grimmace from McDonalds.

That's actually very similiar to something that happened to me in high school, Cos. Junior year you were allowed to take a gym elective and almost everyone chose golf, because you didn't have to get changed or anything. Well, the golf teacher was this woman who, I swear to God, was Andre the Giant in drag. She was huge and wasn't exactly very feminine, if you catch my drift.
Anyway, she was also a bizzle to boot and for some reason, loved to pick on me. So, one day, I'm practicing my swing and she says, "Ron, you swing like a girl."
Without missing a beat, I reply, "Yeah, Ms. T, you look like a man."
It was almost as if time had stopped in the gymnasium. Everybody looked in my direction as Ms. T stood there, her mouth agape, not believing what she said. Slowly, I could see her eyes starting to glow read and then she unleashed a torrent of verbal anger in my direction.
'HOW DARE YOU SPEAK THAT WAY TO ME!!!! YOU WILL TREAT ME WITH RESPECT!!! YOU GO TO THE DEAN'S OFFICE RIGHT NOW!!!" And then, emphasizing each word with a clap of her man-hands, "IF YOU DON'T WANNA PLAY MY WAY, YOU DON'T PLAY AT ALL!!!"
I went down to the dean's office and the Dean saw me. He was someone I knew pretty well--we performed in the student/faculty plays together--and he was also one of those administrators who was on the verge of retirement and wanted to do as little work as possible. He saw me and rolled his eyes. "Oh, great. What're you here for?"
So, I explained to him and told him exactly what transpired. The Dean just put his head in his hand and shook it. "Ron," he said, "Why do you have to antagonize her like that? You know it just causes me more work."
He lead me out the door. "Just go to the library or something for the rest of the period. If she asks, I dunno, just say I gave you detention or something. I don't want to deal with it."
Oh, for Christmas, all I really want is WWE 24/7. But that's not going to be available in my neighborhood until sometime next year. I'd also like to transported back to 1993 and relive just one day of my senior year.

My Christmas present is a new CD by Nas.... Hip Hop is Dead.  Forget all the hype and sales around Jay-z and his mediocre return from retirement, Nas out did him again like he always does. He will never get the exposure and sales Jay does though because he doesn't cater to girls or clubs like the trash on the radio all the time, he just makes good music. |

Wu, what about about Ghostface's "More Fish" ? That's dropping this tuesday. I've heard good things. I haven't listened to the whole thing yet, I got Nas, Ghost, and Jeezy (even though I'm not really a Jeezy fan I'm going to geve it a listen) all in the last 2 days. The Nas was my most anticipated so I listened to that one most of the way through but I haven't gotten to ghost yet. I have both the Nas and Ghost pre-ordered on Amazon but when they come out on-line I can't resist getting them early, plus it saves me from having to rip them to my computer too. If you want any of them hit me up on IM billab0914 |

I bought one of my Christmas presents last night:  I walk into Walmart and check out the Xbox 360 games. I see this game with a sales sticker of 29.87 on it. I think, "This game just came out, that can't be right." I ask the lady, "Is this game really 29 bucks?" She says, "Yeah I guess so." I look down and read the small print under the price and it says MLB '06. So they really just had the games lined up behind the wrong sale sticker. But she had already grabbed it. It rings up for 60 something. So she calls someone over and they both go look at it. Another lady says, "It says 29.87 you gotta give it to him for that." So she rang it up at that price and I got a brand new Xbox 360 game I have been wanting for 50% off. Thanks Walmart! |

I listened to enough of the Ghost to say that it is a very quality album. I was skeptical of it because they make it seem like a "leftover" album from last years "Fish Scale", especially because they have 1 track from that cd remixed on it (back like that) and one that is recycled from Hi-Tek's album (Josephine) and 2 that Ghost isn't even on and it is just his crew with no other Wu-Tang appearances but I have to say it is a very quality album and might be better then "Fish Scale".  I have been saying for a long time that Rza is just too busy to ever put the effort into a Wu-Tang album again like he did in the early 90's that made them classics. The People that the Wu should be working with is Madlib and the man in the mask, MF Doom. To me their production sounds a lot like old Rza except with a comic book/superhero/super villian theme instead of Rza's martial arts theme. Ghost has been workning with them a lot now and their production is nice on this album. A very under the radar album with great production was MF Doom and Madlib's Madvilliany.  |
