Worst Whiteboy Rapper Ever - Boostalk "We Gon Rock"

videosiftbannedme says...

Coming up on "Scared Straight", we drug and kidnap white rapper Boostalk, and then drop him off between Normandy and Western in East Los Angeles. Will the young MC make it out alive? Or will Big Poppa find him before he escapes? The answer to those questions, and many more are coming up. Stay tuned!

Chick makes same dumb face in every damn picture

World War II Normandy Campaign, in color

BreaksTheEarth says...

>> ^rougy:
The color definitely gives it a new perspective. Seems much more recent.


My thoughts exactly. The shots of the devastation have a much more visceral and real aspect to them. This is an amazing vid.

Fox News Declares War on Canada

nomino says...

Check out this amazing comment I found on Reddit about this video

user GCRANSTON writes:
"See, this is why Fox News can't get a broadcast license in Canada.

I might also mention

1. War of 1812: Lit the White House on fire; American's commemorate this in their National Anthem

2. Vimy Ridge: First time Canadian Troops under Canadian command; advanced so fast troops were ordered to halt because supplies couldn't keep up. When asked how we took the untakeable position to quickly, Canadians respond with "No one told us it was impossible to do"

3. Passchedaele: Canadian troops inspire the original use of the term "Storm Troopers"

4. Dieppe: Canadian troops undertake practice invasion of the coast of France. Terrible loss of Canadian life. Lessons learned directly led to the successes at Normandy.

5. D-Day: Despite lessons learned from Dieppe, no beach head other than Juno - the Canadian Beach - was successful. American pilots actually bombed Canadian troops stating "no way are they that far inland; we're still stuck on the beaches!"

I'd go on but I'm just too furious with this lack of respect for my country. I will only say that Canada is in Afghanistan cleaning up America's mess, operating in the most dangerous part of the entire country. Maybe the reason Fox can't remember Canadians are in Afghanistan is that THEY WERE DOING SO BADLY THERE THEY HAD TO START ANOTHER WAR WITH IRAQ TO DRAW PEOPLE'S ATTENTION AWAY?!?

Fox News, I say to you with with deep sincerity: Go Fuck Yourself."

wow, couldn't've said it better

Doug Stanhope on Nationalism

jerryku says...

People like to take credit for their ancestor's "good" things, but refuse to take credit for their sins. For example, D-day... "my grandpa did that! Yeah! He stormed Normandy, sniped an MG-42 crew, and then liberated France. YEAH!!!"

Meanwhile... "Sure my great great grandpa had a few slaves... but that was a long time ago. I had nothing to do with that. Stop blaming me! Damn!!! Leave me alone!"

Either you take credit for all the good and bad things of your forefathers, or you take credit for none of it. I think the latter view is the better way to go.

Thanks! yeah, I was seriously pissed after I watched that video. Arg... I hate it when butt heads like that get me riled up, but ah well. I'd like to kick him in HIS plumbing!

In reply to this comment by JiggaJonson:
thanks for the well thought out comment. Yeah that jackass is, eh, a tool.

In reply to this comment by MrConrads:
This guy is an absolute joke. He has no concept or clue of what living in a democracy really entails or what has actually contributed to upholding the free state he lives in and enjoys. Those were reporters that captured the flag raising on Iwo Jima, it was reporters that captured many of the images we think of when we talk about the allied landing at Normandy, it was reporters that went on bombing raids to document what the bomber crews went through, it was reporters that documented the forgotten war in Korea, it was reporters that helped stop the carnage in Vietnam, it was reporters that stopped the slaughter on the highway of death in Iraq, and its been reporters that have told the truth about what has happened in Iraq now, and the list could go on and on. This man is a disgrace to reporting and an absolute fraud. It sickens me that good, HONEST people are loosing their jobs every day while posers like this ass hole are given so many opportunities, non of which they deserve. Pay your fucking taxes you ass hole, and get off my tv.

Ice T - Midnight

MrFisk says...

Midnight chillin' at A.M P.M.
Coolin' drinkin' apple juice
In Evil's BM
The sound's up loud
To attract attention
rmoraled tires
On a lowered suspension
Nardi to steer with
Alpine deck was glowin'
Bumpinn' Big Daddy
And the nigga was definitely flowin'
I was ridin' shotgun
Donald and Hen in back
Look thru the tint recognized a jack
Two brothers strolled up
Talkin' bout get out
Donald D blazed
Shot one fool thru his fuckin' mouth
Why would they step
When they know we're strapped?
I never cruise L.A.
Without a Gat in my lap
The other fool shot
Caut the E in the shoulder blade
I busted thru the ca door
That's where the nigga laid
Hen jumped out
Dropped two nines in his forehead
Evil was bleedin' bad
The car seats were turnin' red
Looked to my left
There were two more carloads
Niggas in hats and hoods
In an attack mode
And they hadn't yet begun to fight
E hit the gas
It was one past midnight!
We boned down Vernon
Right on Normandie
Left on Florence
Gettin' thru the E.T.G.'s
Spun out on Vermont
Made a left on Colden
Right on Hoover
E where we goin'?
He didn'T even answer that
Checked the reaar view
They were still out back
Where were these brothers from?
What made these brothers come
Bang! our back window
Was removed by a shotgun
Now Hen G was shot
Don caught a ricochet
These motherfuckers was ill
They didn't come to play
Bust a right turn, parked
and then we got left
Hid in the the bushes
Shot the gas tank to fake death
But would this really
Keep them psyched?
Three of us bleedin'
It was ten past midnight!
I really didn't like
How this shit was goin' down
Wrong night, wrong time
Wrong fuckin' part of town
Ya see we was deep
In the Hoover's hood
Three niggas bleedin'
That shit don't look good!
See over there red don't go
Some places red's all they know
But not our luck
Tonight we was real fucked
Borke down an alley
And we instantly had to duck
Fuckin' police on a gang sweep
No time to deal with one time
So we had to creep
Broke thru a back yard
Ran thru a vacant lot
E, Hen and Don kept up
To be some niggas shot
Shit was gettin' craazy
So I had to get busy
Hen was bleedin' worse
And Evil was gettin' dizzy
Looked in a parking lot
I needed a snatch bar
Had to hot wire
So I moved on an old car
It was a bucket, but fuck it, it had to do
Started it up
And scooped my whole crew
Two blocks later
We saw fuckin' blue lights
The pigs were behind us
It was half past midnight!
When they pulled us over
Shit got worse
I waited till they got out
And then I hit reverse
Fucked 'em up, I seen one cop fall
Threw it in gear, yo I'm outty yall
Don't know how
But somehow we got away
Lost the jackers, the cops
Dumped the G.T.A.
Made it back to the hood
Fixed the crew up
And even though Evil's car blew up
We made it home and then I crashed out
Thinkin' bout my all-night death bout
Then somethin' woke me up
From my dark sleep
The sound of fuckin' police
When they're tryin' to creep
Broke thru my door
With no goddamn warning
Looked at my watch
It was six in the mornin'!

7L & Esoteric - Mic Mastery

MrFisk says...

Yo, yo,yo I weave a tapestry strike rapidly and
magically
Alter battle rap habitats automatically
You back down, I change your background like
Photoshop
My oratory inventory's overstocked
I'm ripping the track, djs are enjoying it
'Cutting it up, and completely destroying it'
Ambidextrous, yo you must be on a deathwish
Stepping to this, I'm venemous I'll leave you
breathless
I spat words, waxed and taxed herbs
Your raps absurd, backs get fractured,
My crack a shell, bag your mademoiselle
Take the cake then I break like a bat out of hell
You fuck with Esoteric catch a capital L
Lock horns with 7L, son there's none parallel
You need a beat to flow to?
You're lucky if your said Hello to
Bitch-ass crab I thought I told you

'Known to be the master in the M.C. field'
'Make way, 'cause here I come'
'Known to be the master in the M.C. field'
'Cover every angle on the mic, I'm killin''

It's Esoteric kid, yeah that's whose spitting
Ask Lew dipping in the back, brew sipping
I spit hot shit when wack crew ripping
It even leaves the ink on your tattoo dripping
Crab cat talk about how your seeing gats
The only metal you hold is the one for being wack
The only battle you've been in is the one you
reinact
Talking trash from the back like a sneak attack
I'm strictly biz cause I'm going where Parrish
went
You ain't wack, you's a fucking embarrassment

I'm making sense like your last record's total
sales
I spoke in brail, you felt it so much
That you left with broken nails
When packing a jam, harrassing the fans for not
clapping their hands
Cuz you ain't dope you just a flash in the pan
Like coke to a crack dealer bagging a gram
I rock a fitted cap, can't deal with little
straps
Strictly big guns when it comes to ripping tracks
I ain't sweating sales, dub this for your crew
Cuz once they hear the rhymes they're gonna want
the cover too

Yo I take command crushing all my enemies,
breaking their hands
A giant avalanche quaking your fam
The mic killer, I bring doom ripping buffons
Rhymes expand like the womb in delivering rooms
Too gory, these kids split Whigs like a Tory
More importantly I bring the 4th degree of
sorcery
Orally, forgery authorities report to me
Quarterly, the way I corner borders be like
Normandy
I'm ornery, words turn, as your verse squirms
like an earthworm
First learn, churches burn as worlds turn
Predicaments, make your ligaments of no
significance
I'm speaking real words kid your speaking
ignorance
I must insist, it's tough to feel dissed
By a rap group I don't even know exists
What you maggots hope to say, could never serve
Shay
The only wax you put out was candles on your
birthday

Inappropriate Soundtrack - Saving Private Ryan

charliem says...

Im sorry, but you guys have totally missed the point of the video.
SomethingAwful held a forum competition to see who could ruin a brilliant movie scene by changing the music to it, either by making it hilarious or otherwsie.

This was not an attempt at comment on politics in any way shape or form, nor was it meant as any disrespect to the vet's who gave their lives on the beach at normandy, just a mashup to see how it "feels" with different music.

Inappropriate Soundtrack - Saving Private Ryan

honkeytonk73 says...

So appropriate, considering the idiotic gung-ho behavior of the Republican party. Rich bastard corporates waving the flag and talking about sacrifice, when it is the less fortunate/educated of our society that dies for them. All for what? Oil and war profits.

FYI, my uncle was ON the beaches of Normandy, and was one of the lucky few to survive.

Korean De-militarized Zone (brief) Photo Tour (Blog Entry by Arsenault185)

Arsenault185 says...

Well, the line isn't exactly imaginary. There are sign posts and fence lines stretching the entire length of the border. Not to mention a large river with only 3 bridges, all of which are wired with explosives at all times. Also, in the river are dragons teeth (think the Normandy beach landing, the cross-looking things)

I know what you mean though Farhad. I just wanted to throw that out there. And yes, they are paired to prevent it. Although we were all joking around trying to ad lib for them like this: "ok on three... one.. two... three! Why didn't you go?"
(the other guy) "why didn't YOU go?"
(first guy) "You suck!"
(second guy) "No, you suck!"

A Date Which Will Live in Infamy

MarineGunrock says...

Move on? Is that what you tell someone when they tell you their mother or grandmother was killed in a concentration camp? Is that what you tell someone when they tell you their family died in the blast at Nagasaki? Is that what you tell someone when you learn that his father died on the beaches of Normandy or Okinawa? Grow up and stop being a troll.

Great post, Lurch. May we all remember those who came and went before us that stared into the face of death so that the Red, White and Blue may fly freely.

The Official MycroftHolmz Roast! (Parody Talk Post)

K0MMIE says...

And if I am not mistaken that will bring these festivities to a close, unless anyone else has something truly biting and horrible to say.

It was a really goot natured roast, and it was a pretty fun read. So let's recap:

Dag is a party pooper with "Raper" wit... I am not sure you should tell anyone about that.

Choggie still has the mutant power to make anyones eyes glaze over like yellow mustard gas with inane rambling about his latest fancy pants topic.

Karaidl... well you're just a big fat butterball.

Dotdude likes being fashionably late... as in 24 hours fashionably late. Must be hard to get re-invited to parties on New Years eh?

and last but not least MycroftHomlz... thanks for being a good sport, and thank you for your litte pathetic attempts at comebacks. It was like watching an 8 year-old with a bb-gun storming Normandy beach.

Now the question on everybody else's mind... is who's next?
