Everybody’s Stupid, CLXXXVIII

Y’all, it’s happening again. I think my narcissism is kicking in! Because I’d swear that Kendrick Lamar is speaking directly to me and my situation in “Watch the Party Die.” But before I begin, I would like to thank everyone for riding my dick so intensely that I’ve decided to go celibate. Like, damn, are y’all trying to break my dick?! And if I ever needed confirmation that I am precisely who I’ve always known I am, what’s better than being obsessed over by famous people? Better yet, how could I ever top being revered by the biggest rappers in the world before I even establish myself as an icon? Oh, y’all know that hip hop’s favorite podcaster is sick, right? Sir, you know you can’t get nothing by me! With all the posturing you did during that breakdown, which was the only portion of the episode that I listened to, you might as well take up a side gig at Madam Tussauds. Motherfucker, if y’all have anything to say to me, you have my email address and my phone number, get at me! Fuck I look like playing games with a temper tantrum throwing little bitty-ass boy with a full-grown, grey-haired beard when I’m trying to inspire change?! So, let’s get straight to it! The busted-ass black Air Force 1s that K. Dot used as the artwork for his newly released dulcet diatribe could mean two things. One, it could mean that he’s dug up his old “do dirt” sneakers because he’s preparing to get active and shit is about to get dark for niggas. Two, it could mean that he’s done doing dirt, showcasing that the worn out condition his sneakers indicates that he’s put in enough work, and now he’s preparing to sit back and watch the culture implode. If you don’t know, in black culture, black Air Force 1s are considered the preferred footwear of fellows with a fondness for felonious activities. In the lyrics of “Watch the Party Die,” Compton’s “good kid” is seemingly speaking from the perspective of hip hop’s indignant and demoralized savior, and he pleads for God’s blessings while airing out his grievances with all the devilish fiends destroying the culture and subverting his ascendancy within it. Kendrick’s tone throughout the song resonates with me because we share a lot of the same sentiments. Basically, we’re both tired of niggas and nigga-shit. We’ve all heard the song a few times, right? If you’re a fan of mine, I’ll let you decide which lines you believe apply to me, my abhorrence of dick-riding, my reluctance to “pop out,” and my insistence on staying the course without being impulsive and imprudent. I don’t want to be just another talking-ass motherfucker, sorry. Diverging slightly, if you could change one thing about the world, what would it be? I believe that life is all about balance. And because there would be no pleasure without pain, no good without evil, no bravery without fear, etc., the first thing that I’d change is people’s ability to interpret. Interpretation is the act of explaining the meaning of something, and explanations are essentially answers to problems. Having the capability to explain things means that you understand, understanding precludes questions, and less questions means less problems. Unfortunately, humans are stupid, levels of stupidity vary naturally, and nature is hard to change. Isn’t it sad that we can only fantasize about evolution? By nature, some people will always go against the grain. Do you believe that? And if that’s true, even if humans made it to the point where everything was ideal, some stupid motherfuckers would think that they were geniuses for trying to change things that would be, for lack of a better term, perfect! Think about it, you can’t even manually set the water level on most brand new washing machines anymore, because now they have “smart” technology that usually very inaccurately measures the amount of clothes that you load. All change ain’t good!

So, they tried to assassinate Donald Trump, again. Do you think an annual event similar to that depicted in “The Purge” would help promote world peace? If you say yes, you’re an idiot. First, how would anyone enforce rules during periods of permitted lawlessness? The judicial system exists to both deter illicitness and prosecute those who are illicit. And if people refuse to abide by sensible law when breaking the law is prohibited, what would encourage people to remain lawful with official authorization to cause chaos? Second, how many so-called purges do you think would take place before entire continents were erased from existence with nukes? Again, some people are naturally going to go against the grain, and those wild cards will never be reliable. Trump’s second would-be assassin was a 58-year-old white male who was convinced that he was doing the right thing, as an old video showed that he once implied that he was taking a stance on “good versus evil.” If it’s natural for people’s ability to interpret to vary, so will their rationale. Is it irony or hypocrisy that aiming to oppose evil often makes people evil? Unquestionably, no matter how righteous your cause is, there will always be an objector with just as much, if not more, passion who believes that their cause is more righteous than yours. Good and evil exist because people’s interpretations of other people’s actions are often at variance. And to everyone’s detriment, education and mediation, which are implemented to counteract confusion and curb conflict, can only help so much. Moving on, aside from the plight of freedom fighters, ordinary people face perilous battles daily amongst the morally conflicted and meaningfully crazy. If sensibleness and senselessness are subjective, and subjectivity is also subject to individual interpretation, how do you know when you’re right or wrong? If there were to be a solution or prevention to people being at odds over odd things, it would be everyone minding their fucking business. Everybody’s guilty of sticking their nose where it doesn’t belong, but some people make habits, hobbies, and hardly working careers out of it. Deviating a bit, if you prioritize growth, you’ll eventually come to realize that most of the things that you’re “tired” of only persist because your actions preserve them. And when financial limitations and familial obligations aren’t factors, being “tired” is a choice. But be aware, weak-ass people will always try to define you by your shortcomings. Nothing boosts a feeble-minded fool’s spirit like finding faults in folks’ affairs. And said frisking fault-finders have fun focusing on the obvious and forwarding their frivolous findings to forbidding foes. Though there is ambiguity and obscurity in many things left up to personal interpretation, the distinctions between friends and foes are generally stark. Still, per nature’s necessity for balance, taking the good with the bad is a requisite for life. Now, in other news, freaky-ass Shannon Sharpe “accidentally” went live on Instagram while allegedly engaged in sexual acts with a very vocal woman. I wasn’t going to touch on this because I believe that the “Nightcap” podcast host is all “cap” in his explanation of the incident. After viewing a short clip of the video and hearing the woman clear her throat, enunciate intently, and project her voice while moaning Shannon’s name, I believe that the stunt was staged. Shame on Shay Shay for clout-chasing and thirst-trapping like a thot, and on IG of all places. Speaking of staging stunts, once again, skeptics suppose that the shooter who sought to snipe the snooty former president was a sham. In my opinion, underestimating the power of hatred is like overestimating the value of a hateful person. Per the failed assassin’s interpretation, his hatred for Trump’s hatefulness was justified by nature’s necessity for balance. If Trump is evil, eliminating him is a chance to tip the scale in good’s favor, right? However, what if hatred is as evil as hatefulness? Sacrifice is relinquishing something valuable in exchange for something more important. Make your sacrifices make sense. Peace.
