"Earlier this evening, Gordon Blackstone. He was banned why? Frank claims I was lying of Tony. Though he will always be with me. For a thought is important no matter what it be. I think Tony Demireo (Life Martyr or for some []/bracketz) will be around for a long time..." -Gordon Blackstone
I hate myself, I like pretty much all those things except "self-aware hip hop references."
In English, when we say: "It is raining"
What the fuck is IT? Sometimes I wake up in a cold sweat afraid that IT has found me.
3. speaking one at a time
When your wife an in-laws are Chicago Polish, this does not hold true.
[rosiemoonjumper] 9:52 pm: cheeks are great
[rosiemoonjumper] 9:52 pm: bum and face
[rosiemoonjumper] 9:52 pm: oh yeah bum here = bottom not street vagrant
By "hang" do you mean talk about Wagner and Prokopfiev while listening to Mos Def with a Barack Obama poster in the background, and drinking coffee and tea?
If so, then YEAH!
I don't want to LISTEN to Mos Def but I WILL watch him in a Michel Gondry movie!!!

Tom just reminded me that white people like to tell other's what to do.
Stuff Mexicans like to do:
Landscape
Nap
Nothing...other than landscaping and napping
We don't like to landscape. It just comes natural to us. Napping is totally on point.
Shrill taxi-whistling is also a born-in Mexican ability. I wish it held true for Puerto Ricans.
Whiteys like Tom Bergeron as well.

See, I don't get that. I only had to cut the grass once, and that was punishment for something I did when I was 15. I'm a terrible Mexican.
No, I drank champagne at this place where my mother got me my first job. It was one of those antebellum mansions where people have weddings and my mother had written an article about it and that's why I was hired. I got really drunk because I'd never had any alcohol before and I had it in one of those giant plastic gas station cups. My dad was pissed so he made me get up at the crack of dawn and mow the lawn for some reason.
Did you half like mowing the lawn? Did you mow half of it and then take a nap? And I think your dad was pissed because for your first time being drunk you chose wine instead of tequila.
[moe.ron] 9:11 pm: who's homer?
[Gordon Blackstone] 9:11 pm: The dad...
[Gordon Blackstone] 9:11 pm: of bart.
I know I do. Go eat a dick for correcting my grammar.

I wouldn't mind except for the giant picture.

I'd like to take a moment to thank all of the Television shows out there that helped to raise me
Hey wow, I already linked there and put up a full list of everything they've covered in the fifth post in this thread.
