  1. Ok, I really didn't want to be involved in this thread....Mostly because my only response was going to isolate both sides pof this debate, but since recent events at home sparked the conversation again, and I'm still engulfed in the flames I just want to say the evolution of the word "woke" is pretty unsettling to me and I'll explain why despite my knowing this is EXACTLY why i didn't want to start this. Woke is a term that has been in the black lexicon for decades...I would say the start of it being used in common, everyday interactions was after the release of Spike Lee's School Daze and the famous "wake up" scene. Since then and perhaps even before it (I can't say for sure since even I was a child back then) "Wokeness" was a common theme in Spike's films and you could buy stay woke and wake up merch at any Asian hair store.....This dates back before the 90s, and long before the mainstream internet. Well, the internet comes along and the word takes a massive online slumber until BLM hits the scene and uses it as part of their campaign. Welp, like many things that other people find cool because we do it, woke became synonymous with any and all targeted groups of people and their crusade to be heard. But that's not what it is.....And since it got latched onto every tiny thing that bunches conservative undies, it's no longer applied the way it's intended. It's almost ironic (shut up scoob) that at it's core, the very term used to help us identify and rally against such things as cultural appropriation was culturally appropriated....Who did it first is up for grabs but the point is black folks can't have shit. Also, this is a great film and everyone should see it....And yes...That's Gustavo Fring.
  2. Lol, I see he found his way to toonami. Enjoy, I guess...I have no clue what the end game is here
  3. Elon would just post from it to make it seem like he's still there.

  7. Mobile......SFIV. Just the thought hurts my brain.
  8. Ikr....some people would go so far as to defend Greg Abbott just to bolster their own pride....pathetic, really but that's just one of the byproducts of e-freedom... Seriously, it's a thing.
  9. I just wanted to take my shot....carry on
  10. Apparently not....so, are we moving on now since I can see, respond to, and quote you? Ya know...assuming that's not the joke🤫
  11. He knows....I'm convinced that's the joke. I just feel y'all are too ready to believe others are oblivious to the things they do here.
  12. That's also where Gotham and Metropolis are located
  13. Lol, that's not very conservative of you😭😭😭
  14. Ok...I didn't get this at first because all I remembered was he stabbed a kid....it wasn't until I recalled why he stabbed him that his finally landed.
  15. Oh I never thought of looking there.
  16. .....have you put on a significant amount of weight....I simply don't recall you being that big but I don't think I've seen a legit pic of you for at least 6 years when I abandoned the Buddyroe FB
  17. Is it wrong that I hope vbraegames gets to post before they get nuked....I kinda wanna see what they are selling.

  20. Oh ok...my bad, I misunderstood the post. Well, since I have no clue who this dude is, I may still watch it but so far I don't have a real reason to other than Ali, and I'm not THAT big of a fan....Glen is ok I guess...I just know he was popular in TWD
  21. See....I asked if anyone saw it but no one replied....WAS IT WORTH MARATHONING. I can still do it today.
