what? | you can cite me in your next research paper if you'd like.

The Modern Language Association (MLA) formatting standard for citing references, was the thorn in my well defined side during my academic career. In short, it's stupid, and I hated it. Now that thorn has devised a way for all you college kiddies to cite a tweet in your next college paper.

Great. Just when I decide to get a life and grow up, MLA does something that makes writing a paper seem cool. I may begin drafting intellectual tweets JUST so someone could cite deezz_nutz.

Amazing. [via]

The past few weeks have been a bit rough for me when it comes to technology. Places like Twitter and Facebook, which were once apart of my daily routine, have now gotten on my nerves so much, I'm thinking very hard about ex communicating myself from both social crack sites. Almost two weeks ago my beloved Macbook Steve crashed, leaving me without a computer, and with a big headache. Being that Apple is the Jesus Christ of all computers, I find it appalling that they fall apart after barely two years of use. PC's last WAY longer than that. They had to completely trash my hard drive, so along with pictures and music, all my writing from the past two years, including some essays I was working on, was lost in the sauce. All that work gone, because technology decided to just stop working.

My hatred for everything tech does not stop there. I'm hating EVERYTHING. Photoshop won't save my files, then photobucket is almost exceeding it's bandwith, blah blah blah. Man I'm fed up. We depend so much on our cell phones, laptops, and the like when any day of the week that technology could wake up and give us a big F. U. When my laptop died, I thought I was going to die. I didn't know what to do with myself without the distraction of my blog, Twitter, SurftheChannel, or Facebook. I was bored out of my mind. And that's SAD. I think I've had enough of technologies fickle mindedness. I'm going to be weening myself away from the internet a little more everyday. It's necessary...

When my laptop dies for sure any day now, I'm taking it to the nearest Apple employee and slapping them with the remaining carcass after I smash it to death on my sidewalk (I'm angry, sorry). There is no way in HELL these computers should be so damn expensive and f_ck up so easily. Come on now.

joe jackson: a case in parental fail.

I didn't put a picture of Joe Jackson on this post even though it's mainly about the guy, for the sheer fact that his face scares me. Serioulsy...scary.

Joe Jackson is the biggest case of Parental Fail for a bunch of reasons. Not only did he use his children to get out of a bad situation (thanks Beyonce for the quote), and vicariously live through them because he wasn't successful as a musician himself, he's now attempting to pimp his grandchildren.

I thought his incessant fuckery would stop now that MJ has been laid to rest, but looking back on that thought, I can see where I went wrong. Plugging his record label, and being open to vaguly speak about his son's death was just the tip of the iceberg for this guy. He's now gone on to achieve the task of closely watching which of Michael's children will follow in their fathers footsteps...with him pushing them the entire way. Who will be the cash cow this time Joe? Only time will tell, right?

"I don't know — I keep watching Paris. She … wants to do something. And as far as I can see, well, they say Blanket, he can really dance," Joe said.

Once a leech, ALWAYS a leech.

whats a goon to a goblin?

Last night I saw pictures of Vibe's last issue, featuring cover girls The Dream and Christina Milian via Necole Bitchie, and tons of interesting questions began running through my mind. Like for one, I'm still not entirely sure how and why these two are together. Call me a hater, but it looks odd. She looks amazing in these photos and he looks...well, awkward. How many guys would kill to be with her?

And two, I've never really liked The Dream, not entirely sure why, I just never have gotten down with him or his music, maybe its because his clothes are so small. As far as Christina Milian, I liked her more when she wasn't with him. I don't know what it is, but these two rub me a funky kinda way. Maybe it's all that whoring for propaganda Freshalina keeps talking about...Hmmm

Spencer Pratt is the White Jay Z?

Disclaimer: Please excuse the hatred that is coming from my mouth. I totally mean harm.

In a recent interview former Hills crackhead, I mean 'STAR', Spencer Pratt sat down with that station that use to be about music, I mean, MTV to discuss the idiot plan someone had to make him a rap star. Yes, you read that correct. RAP STAR. As in Biggie, Tupac, Public Enemy, Kanye West, and Jay Z for that matter. The controversial shit stain goes as far as to say that HE is the white Jay Z.

"I'm the white Jay-Z in the game. I'm doing the baller thing. I'm more for the streets."

If I could copy and past all the fuckery that he spewed in that attempt of an interview without getting in trouble I would, but for now please visit HERE to read the entire thing. It's demeaning, disgusting, and down right SAD that this fool thinks he is the next great white hope. While legitimate lyricists are out here on the grind just to get even a fraction of the shine that this guy has for no reason at all, he's talking out the side of his mouth.

Word to the wise Spencer Pratt.

• If you quote Gucci and Soulja Boy as the only rappers you look up to: there is something wrong.
• If you even think about comparing yourself to Jay Z when he happens to be one of the greatest lyricists of our time: there is something wrong.
• If you refer to yourself and your wife as the 'new age Biggie and Lil Kim': there is something wrong.
• If you even THINK you want to go 'after the ringtone game': there is something wrong.
• If you even dare to bring back the 'baller mentality' to the rap game, you are sadly mistaken. That went out in 1999 just like throw back jeresys and: there is something wrong.

EPIC FAIL.

no home training.

With life kicking me in the rear end, I haven't had much time or energy to blog like I should be. But there's nothing like a good WTF story to give me the motivation I need to put my fingers to the key board and place my two cents in the piggy bank called opinions. So here it goes...

Yesterday upon waking up late for work (again), I did my normal rounds on the bloggesphere and landed on a gem of epic proportions via The Young Black & Fabulous. The weirdest group of people EVER to be associated with one another decided to live it up and bring an animal along for the ride. While rappers Yung Joc and DMX, along with comedian Katt Williams hung out at Joc's St. Louis penthouse apartment, an argument broke out as to who would consume the last line of cocaine (EPIC SIDE EYE) the group was sharing. Katt Williams then decided to feed it to his German Shepard (blink, pause, side eye, blank stare, WTF!), and while all the shits and giggles went down, the dog decided to go ape shit and attack Yung Joc. Dude ended up having to get 72 stiches for the fuckery. And thats not even the worse part. The worse part is that this fool TWITTERED during the ENTIRE THING.

What the hell are people on...Like SERIOUSLY.

Have we really gotten to the point where we do stupid things for the sake of fun? Whoever thought it would be a good idea to give a DOG COCAINE needs to be bitch slapped ASAP. And if it was Katt Williams who made the decision, can we really trust that dude's judgment. Wasn't he the one that talked all that shit and got bitch slapped in the back of a club? Come on now....

fuckery friday: cassie.

I'm sure by now we've all seen or at least heard about Cassandra Ventura aka Cassie aka Assie's naked boobie and va-jay-jay photos. Some of us appreciate this fuckery (men) and then some of us see it as a blatant ploy for attention (women).

I don't know about anyone else, but if I were a celebrity (and I use that term loosely) I wouldn't have ANYONE take pictures of me in compromising situations because I'd be so petrified that shiz would get into the wrong hands. This is not a Michael Phelps situation where she didn't know what was going on or who was taking those photos, she was fully aware of WTF was going on. Taking pictures like that and keeping them on your computer is ASKING for trouble. Am I the only person that understands this?

I guess the saying is true:
'When all else fails. Do some hoe shit...'
What some people will do to sell a record KILLS me...

After all this, the truth of the matter is SHE STILL CAN'T SING...

just in case you forgot.

Haven't been on the interweb for a couple of days because of my need to purge myself of it's fuckery, but I couldn't help but talk about this randomness...

In case anyone forgot...THERE IS STILL A RECESSION GOING ON...

So why the HELL is Louis Vuitton selling key chains (GASP) for $6000? What kind of fuckery is this? Is this really necessary? I know there are people who can afford this, and some that even think this is chump change, but DAMN. Talk about it...

never lose google hits. just your panties.

Lindsay Lohan has been in the spotlight for a long time now. And although she's made a bunch of movies (uhh..ok) it's been her personal life that has kept her a star. I had a post awhile ago that posed the question of what this chick actually does for a living anymore (besides creating leggings), and I guess now that she's not with Sam Ronson this is it. She's resorted to making Funny or Die Videos...

Lindsay Lohan's eHarmony Profile from Lindsay Lohan

O Lilo...

come on now.

Andy Warhol once said "Art is what you can get away with...". I'm not sure this is what he meant. L.A. based pop artist Sham Ibrahim has created these Andy Warhol-ish paintings with non other than Rihanna's mug shot...the aftermath of the alleged Chris Brown attack. Yea, I'm not sure this was such a great idea. What does everyone else think?

are you there vodka. it's me, lindsay.

Is it just me or is Lindsay Lohan like completely irrelevant? I was just over at Jezebel and they had 3 posts with her name associated with either a fight with her girlfriend, drinking, or drugs. When's the last time this chick made a movie again? Right...you can't remember either...

I'm just saying...
Please let me know if I'm wrong. I feel in my heart I'm not, but you never know...

this is what i was waiting for? FAIL.

Last night on Twitter (because I never have anything better to do with my life) I noticed that one of the up and coming rappers I'm following (Wale), twitted that he had a crazy huge announcement to make tomorrow (meaning today) about his debut album.

Now I'm a pretty big fan of this guys music so I was moderately hyped for the news. Today I was at work checking my Twitter like a crack head trying to figure out what his big announcement was. Well here it is.
He announced to fans that next week he'll be making some more announcements. Does anyone else see the stupidity of this? Or am I all alone? Like WHO THE FUCK MAKES AN ANNOUNCEMENT THAT THEY'RE GOING TO BE MAKING AN ANNOUNCEMENT?! Forreal?! Are we that thirsty that he'd think his fans would pee their pants with delight upon receiving notice (ahem, the announcement) that he'll be giving us an announcement. ARE YOU KIDDING ME?

And to top it off his announcements could be done all in one day. Way to illicit anticipation dude. Good job!

epic fail: i don't like cops because.

This is fucked up in more ways than the obvious.
Video of a 15 year old getting beat up by some cops. EPIC FAIL dude...

this is sad.

I'm not even going to dignify this post with the picture of Rihanna's injuries. What I'll do is let you all click HERE to see it yourself. This shit is ignorant on so many levels. I'm not one to take sides but shit shouldn't have to get to this level. This is why I let shit roll off my back, because when you let your anger consume and take over that logical portion of your brain, SHIT GETS CRAZY.

Ladies, never let a man do this to you, and men, never be a bitch and do this shit to a lady.

Chris Brown is OFFICIALLY on some R. Kelly type shit.
Damn...

Sidenote: I said 'shit' like 12 times lol

ok. this is rude.

This extremely rude on so many different levels, it's insane. Lets get over ourselves people. Yeesh...

damn you recession. part 2.

Dear Recession, 

I know that it's probably been a little hard for you, ya know, shitting on our society and completely taking over our economy & stuff. I understand. 

I get the fact that you're causing people to sell their houses and cars, and lose their jobs & stuff. I understand that as well...

There's just something I cannot wrap my mind around. 

WHY THE HELL IS MY FAVORITE STREETWEAR BOUTIQUE CLOSING?! Have you lost yo damn mind? Where the hell am I going to buy Hellz Bellz, Claw $$$, MOB, Insight, In4mation, Darkhorse, Kid Robot, Made Me, and 10 Deep? Karmaloop? 

Look Recession, buying streetwear via the internet pisses me off. I hate paying for shipping and I'm impatient. No I do not live in New York, nor can I afford to visit that city more than twice a year. I don't have the luxury of walking out of my 5th floor walkup and BAM! there's the Bape store...this is Pittsburgh. That shit don't happen here. 

Next time  you want to take the ONLY establishment that sells the shit I love outta the equation...please see me first. So I can slap the shit outta you!

Love Always, 

Deezzz Nutz

fuckery followed us into the 09.

This is exactly what I needed to see after the great weekend I've had (sarcasm). Apparently neither Chris Brown OR Rihanna will be attending the Grammy's this evening because of a altercation that became physical, and caused an 'unnamed' female to press charges against Chris Breezy. 

I saw pics last night of both Chris and Rihanna at Clive Davis's Pre-Grammy party looking extra cozy and loving with one another (although I think Rihanna looked a bit tipsy). Whatever happened is between them, but I hope for the sake of their fans, and their privacy that this can be sorted out. It's sad to see these things happen...

gold star 4 the obaminator.

This has got to be the most honest thing I've ever seen a President do: admit to his mistake and tell the truth. It's a beautiful thing people.

President Obama sat down with the Anderson Cooper to talk about Tom Dashel decision not to do his taxes. This unfortunate decision caused Dashel to withdraw his nomination to be secretary of Health & Human services yesterday. Instead of sitting the the 'White House bubble' and not speaking on this situation, President Obama came out to the American people and said 'I screwed up'. 

I really love this guys way of politics. This bottom up approach is really renewing America's trust in it's government. And it's small gestures like the video above that make people trust Obama more and more...

Now Tom Dashel. Do your taxes damnit!

epic fail: soulja boy & bow wow.

So apparently these 2 fools are having a rather annoying 'beef'. I mean, didn't you two make a shitty rap song together (Marco Polo)? That calls for BFF status in the world of Hip Hop. It's 2009 people! Lets leave the foolishness behind and grow up. Who gives a shit about what type of car you own. We're in a recession, people are losing their lives everyday and you're worried about a car you probably can't afford...Smh 

I can't. I won't. Lets get free people, starting...NOW. 

Peep shitty beef video battle below. 

the funniest thing i've seen all day.

Hilarious!
