[QUOTE=Against Miik!;17797667]Ok so quick rundown, basically Paul says that Who Dat is stupid phrase because it is grammatically incorrect. Well its a sports chant so I don't think anyone should care. Talking like that in real life though? Yeah you should learn how to talk.

So yeah then everyone gets on his case and is like yeah bro its just AA vernacular so they are totally allowed to speak like that.

Well ok thats fine people can talk however they want but I just want you all to take note of the fact that the only successful people who speak in african american vernacular are rappers and athletes.[/QUOTE]

um no this is so wrong. youre pretty much saying that there are no successful ******s except rappers and athletes. im 100% positive that theres tons of black people who have good jobs and would say 'who dat' instead of 'who is that' when hanging out with their friends.

[QUOTE=The Stig;17797669]Different. Kids is a perfectly acceptable word that's considered less formal than children. Who dat completely mangles a phrase and ignores American convention on use of either a verb or contraction in addition to grossly misspelling that.

Since you're not misspelling anything with kids nor are you ignoring the fact there needs to be a verb in there, there's nothing wrong with using kids.[/QUOTE]

"american convention"

was there some gathering of americans to decide on the rules of the american language

Carl Sagan 02-07-2010 11:52 PM

Angmar 02-07-2010 11:53 PM

Nepenthe 02-07-2010 11:53 PM

Indeed. This thread has been lacking lately, this convo has restored my faith.

Ok but not all black peopel are ******s.

There are tons of black people that can speak well, even with there friends. Granted I have only anecdotal evidence, but still. I mean look at our first black president. What does he sound like?

Also take note that I'm not being racist, because I also am aware of a lot of white people who make a complete mockery of the english language, both with friends and in papers or a classroom etc... They do it way beyond regional dialects. I can fully understand people pronouncing things weird because thats just what happens when you grow up in different parts of the country.

But when you just make up words and use them like its proper english then I don't think people are going to take you to seriously.

[QUOTE=TimJim;17797583]like if i wasnt going into medical field, i would be all over the same **** you are, but i am drug tested and im a slightly confuzzled sea lion when it comes to acid and hallucinogens. i ****ing love the idea of DMT, but it smells not so good tastes probably worse and only lasts for like 10min. if anything i would do the ancient tribal drugs like Ayuahsca or peyote since at least that will be less recreational and more finding my inner self or whatever that is[/QUOTE]

1) the level of recreation all depends on what you intend to get out of it. I've done peyote (well, mescaline, same dif) and it was just as recreational as anything else I've done. Granted, I did learn a lot of things such as the lack of concreteness in the concept of "time" but I've learned similarly deep things from other drugs.

2) Ayhuasca is pretty much DMT only ingested orally and it has some other ingredients but nothing particularly psychoactive.

3) 10 minutes on DMT is more than enough time. It feels like a like a lifetime and a half, believe me.

4) The concept of finding your inner self through drugs is somewhat a farce in a way. People don't find themselves because of the actual drugs they're doing per se, but through the general process of having an entirely different perception of life. This can happen through drugs as seemingly non-psychoactive as tobacco, or just through going through an entirely non-drug related event that triggers something in your mind. It all depends on mindset.

I have to say, I feel a similar way about aboriginals.

It's more to do with personality traits than race though.

TimJim 02-07-2010 11:59 PM

[quote]I believe with the advent of acid we discovered new way to think and it had to
do with piecing together new thoughts of mind. Why is it that people think it's
so evil? What is it about it that there is scares people so deeply? Because they
are afraid that there is more to reality than they have ever confronted. That
there are doors that they're afraid to go in and they don't want us to go in
there either because if we go in, there we might learn something that they
don't know. And that makes us a little out of their control.
He's losing his mind, and feels it going!

Ok. If in 200 years people's everyday conversations (both casual and professional) sound like a Lil Wayne song, I'll eat my words.
