Dialogue with Slim
- Thread starter Slim
- Start date
opcorn:Couple things on my mind this morning that I wanted to discuss and I figured that this would be the place to do it.
First, I want to give a shout out to the Muslims, Purple People, and all other races that stand out like a sore thumb in society. I went to a Mexican restaurant last night (like REAL Mexican, not what you guys probably go to), because my fiance and I wanted to see the Mariachi's that are going to be preforming during cocktail hour at our wedding. I've got to tell you, I have never felt more uncomfortable in my entire life and I can only imagine living this way everyday of my life. You could feel the eyes piercing into your back, when all you wanted to do was fit in. At one point, the lead singer came up to me and asked me some question that I clearly did not understand.
The helplessness that I felt is probably the same way every single Muslim feels when they walk through an airport, mall, etc. Dont get me wrong, I understand where these feelings come from. The hatred that Mexicans feel from me is probably the same hatred Americans still feel over 9/11. While the differences are quite evident, you cannot really blame them. I, "we" support throwing them out of the country when many of them are only trying to make a better life for themselves. Yes, they bring over SOOOOO much crime and they have riddled our economy worse than people could ever imagine, but the lack of tolerance on both sides is shocking. It made me sad to be honest. If you have never been a true minority in a situation, you will never understand how polarizing this can be. I know I will try to live differently now.
Ok, now that I am done fixing the world, I need to address some more serious issues.
I have my eyes on you. Yes, I do. When we decided to take this web-site to a better place by the removal of that bag-o-shit SPD, I decided I would start tracking some other posters on this web-site for the legitimacy of there records. Well, I tracked 5 people. 2 of these posters have quite big followings, and the other three post on a consistent basis. Ive got to tell you, I am fucking disgusted with the lack of honesty that members of this board have been displaying over the last month. This shit is fucking GARBAGE. If you want to keep a record on this web-site in order to get your dick tugged by a bunch of keyboards, this place is not the place for you. Go lie about your record at a different site.
Too many people on this web-site use members here to place their ACTUAL money on games, and I will be damned if the smoke-and-mirror posters end up giving this place a bad rap. There are shitty fucking sites like Covers and SBR to blow smoke up peoples asses, not here, not with me as a MODERATOR. I am not going to out anyone now, I am going to give people a chance to fix it. You dont have to go back and change your record, there is no need to wear a scarlet letter around here. BUT, keep in mind that I am watching. I have an excel sheet that I fill out everyday with your plays and if this shit doesnt change, I am going to lynch some motherfuckers up in the town square and start chucking apples. This web-site is about helping each other and making money. No bullshit, no online circle-jerks (unless we all win), and certainly no lies. The difference between this web-site and the other forums that I have been at is the transparency between the owners and its users. They let me become a Moderator as a sign that they are not trying to hide anything, they do not have any hidden agendas. So, in turn, it would be bullshit to damage the reputation of this web-site by posting bullshit records. "Yeah, yeah, yeah Slim, get the fuck off the ivory tower...." I know fellas, I feel the same fucking way. Why the hell can people not just post their REAL fucking record or not post one at all? Its bullshit. That shit stops today.
Last point that pisses me off is Vince Fucking Carter. On my way into work today, I heard an interview where he was talking about how he stayed 30 minutes late at practice because he wants to "rededicate himself" to his profession. Are you serious? You make $17,000,000 and you are just NOW going to start caring? Excuse me Vince, if I dont get you a fucking cookie because you stayed 30 minutes late at practice for the first time this year. You play no defense, you disappear in the 2nd half, and havent taken the ball hard to the hole in 5 years. Im all about players getting paid their money, they bring the fans in and should see the money, but this pussy motherfucker needs to get the fuck out of town RIGHT NOW. Rededicated? You are 37 years old for christs-sake, and are just figuring that shit out now? You should have taken care of this bullshit 3 years ago in Orlando. Fuck off Vince. I cant wait til next season when this black-hole gets the fuck out of town. Get bent you piece of shit.
Ok, Im done and now ready to approach my day. Thanks for letting me get that all off my chest.
:thanks:

Yeah, you fucking losers. What the hell is your problem in wanting legit records, a decrease in racism, and hating on Vince "The Total Killer" Carter! You guys should all be wearing your number 15 Raptors jersey, while posting false records, and lynching fools from a tree. Get it right!
**What the hell is wrong with this guy?**
:bite:

I'm not sure if the post got deleted or what not, but I didn't think that anyone was bashing you or being condescending regarding your well written post or it's ideals. That's the only thing I hate about posts, texts, written correspondence in general etc etc...There is no way to convey emotion or context to the post...unless you use the cute little emoticons periodically I guess, but even SPD found a way to make this little guy :rofl: a smart ass. I mean really, how could little baby Pac-Man rolling around laughing and having a good time cause such anger and mean-spirtedness?...but it did, and it's sad that we can ALL be so petty at times.
Anyways, my original comment was in regards to Slims semi-original post (the one about Muslims and the Mexican restaurant)...I am 100% in agreement with the whole thing, but I thought it was AWESOME that the opening paragraph was about minoritys and prejudice in society (a deadly worldwide epidemic CERTAINLY), and then he followed that with, "Now that I am done fixing the world, I need to address some more serious issues"......hahaha. The more serious issue was our records here on the Island. hahaha. I absolutely love you fuckers here, but our priorities in life are twisted as hell aren't they. The funniest part is that, to me at least, that was in fact the most interesting/ important part of the whole thing. I really need to get my ass back in church.
I thought that it was very well written Slim and I agree with most of it. Now take a deep breath and put the rope and apples down.
