[QUOTE=Cain]Ya, and the irony of it all is that's the only activity you can possibly participate in that can actually earn you a living. You can rap too, but then you might start a feud and get shot. Either way, it's fine with the white folks. :D

:upset: Oh, how terrible our country is.[/QUOTE]

No, we can become comedians too.

That's how white people like their black people: on a football field, in a recording studio, making jokes, or in jail.

agreed. Its waay too much fun. except for damn Ravenholm.

The biggest thing that is currently bugging me on that is the stupid college bullsh*t going on here.

Lately, the black student group on-campus, Harambe, has been pushing for various agendas, such as an ethnic studies program (which we don't really need as we already have classes devoted to such a topic), claiming that the absence of such programs is indicative of institutional racism.

Just a few days ago, they asked Student Senate to pass a resolution saying that a certain space on-campus would be devoted to students of color, where they could meet without any white people allowed at all.

It makes me really upset that neither side seems able to see much reason. I'm toying with the idea of talking with Harambe's president, who I knew well last year, to ask what the rationale behind these decisions are, because right now it looks VERY bad. :(

Isn't that segregation?

Yeah I'm glad all I have to deal with is the slight tension from the black kids from Chicago who weren't good enough at sports to go to Notre Dame or Michigan and the white kids from the sticks :p

[QUOTE=Jom]
Anyways, I've also done like what Bartender (was it him?) said with TS2: someone is the President and carries the weakest gun in the game, while the rest of us are his Secret Service people, with the more powerful weapons. We then put twenty or so bots on hard to extreme difficulty and try to protect the President.[/QUOTE]

It was GoldenEye that I was talking about, but yeah that was me. Those kinds of games can be a lot of fun.

Speaking of which, anyone heard of a guy called Tony Woods

I saw him do stand up (about fifteen minutes, anyway) a while back, and he was quite good. I can't find anything by him, though :(

That's hilarious.

Jom 02-04-2006 07:09 PM

Is Tony Woods the heavier-set guy whose finale is the "Star Wars in Five Minutes" re-cap that looks kind of like Randy Jackson?

Or is he the skinnier guy that would have a monkey for a pet?

The latter sounds more familiar.

I think the skinnier guy sounds more likely. Come to think of it, I do know a bigger black guy who had some good stuff about being careful not to get accused of anything by a white woman. I don't know his name, though.

This Tony Woods I know did almost all of these fifteen minutes on being a scared black man in Australia, and he was good.

Jom 02-04-2006 07:19 PM

Ah, yeah, that's him. I have his special on my computer, I think, and I saw him on Premium Blend and Comic Remix (half-hour sets of stand-up clips for the latter, and three comedians doing short sets for the former, in case you don't have them where you are).

EDIT: okay, turns out I don't. But I have seen him before.

GenuineImitation 02-04-2006 09:01 PM

Hey guys. I just got into another college (Hofstra University) and Im pretty happy. Im still waiting to hear from New York University and Boston University.

Amit 02-04-2006 09:40 PM

Some of my best friends go to NYU :-D

Dr. Jake Destructo 02-04-2006 09:41 PM

I just got a new soundcard. Huzzah! Man, I didn't realize how much I was missing out on with my old one. There was a real bad hissing with my old card, but now it's nice and crisp. Plus, I can now record in real time instead of with latency. That's the main reason I got one.

Amit 02-04-2006 09:57 PM

Which one did you get?

Congrats!

I wanna go to NYU if I ever go to grad school.

Dr. Jake Destructo 02-04-2006 10:26 PM

[QUOTE=Eggo]Which one did you get?[/QUOTE]


Creative Sound Blaster Audigy 4. It was a real pain to install too. I got a nice deep cut on my right middle finger. Makes it kind of hard to alt pick at a decent speed. :upset:

NP: Pain of Salvation - Winning a War

Amit 02-04-2006 10:33 PM

How is Pain of Salvation? I've never heard of this band until the Prog thread, heh.

[QUOTE=Kurtz]Congrats!

Thanks.

Since you said grad school I imagine you are in college or have completed college. What is your major?

They're very unique and interesting. Ask Moses about them.

Kingofdudes 02-05-2006 12:35 AM

I bought a 6 foot Poboy \m/ Pictures to come tomorrow.

A night of just cruising around is great (creepy too since we drove around the areas that were the hardest hit from Katrina).

The best band ever. Everything is perfect.

Dr. Jake Destructo 02-05-2006 12:39 AM

Crap, that must have used up a lot of butter. :amaze: How much was it?

Amit 02-05-2006 12:56 AM

[QUOTE=Moses]The best band ever. Everything is perfect.[/QUOTE]

Send me their stuff if you can on AIM :-)

Moses 02-05-2006 12:58 AM

I'll send you Remedy Lane, the whole thing is best when listened to as a whole.

Amit 02-05-2006 01:01 AM

Alright, send it to me tomorrow when I'm back at my university. I'm still at home, heh.

Good night, guys!

comptonassrobert 02-05-2006 01:10 AM

Would you mind sending me some too, Moses? =]

Leper 02-05-2006 01:16 AM

What's up y'all?

Jacaranda 02-05-2006 01:19 AM

Just got back from a little show, they had a Metallica cover band there consisting of all like 12-15 year olds and they were excellent. There was also a FOB cover band, except they weren't a cover band.
:S
Oh Lepper :h5: for the Cash comment.

Leper 02-05-2006 01:34 AM

Haha I felt relieved when I read that there's actually someone out there besides me that doesn't like him.

PinkFreud 02-05-2006 01:43 AM
