That was comically stupid.

Looks like someone wants to talk construction…..

I most definitely could. Maybe this time I’ll get more interest.

PM me.

But can you do it without your fingers? Those ain't rocks in his head, it a mother fucking abacus.

By the way... this deserves its very own cartoon.

He's just emerging from his hidey hole... plenty of time for him to fully emerge in all his slovenly splendor.

That was sudden.

I knew he was from New York and, I figured that’s what it might be about. Dude is always butting heads with someone. He wouldn’t have been part of the beef because that was really just Suge Knight doing his rein of terror and, by that time, Dre had made a break. I just thought it was odd a New Yorker would be part of the west coast scene when east coast rappers were thriving. Didn’t make a whole lot of sense. A guy like Em isn’t going to be a natural fit anywhere, which is probably why Suge couldn’t rattle him.

Isn’t 50 Cent west coast adjacent? I mean he was part of Dre’s stable I think.

The fictional version of renaissance Venice from Assassins Creed…

I think the goal is to make it so that, unlike on X, people can't look at your stuff anonymously. I haven't fidgeted with the settings because I haven't posted anything myself.

Etymologically, the suffix is hypothesized to have derived from a word in the Proto-Indo-European language ("hand" = a person). The connotation of a person as a pair of hands, in this case as in a participating part of a group, has some inherent negative connotations when not attached to a trade (such as fire-man or horse-man). "Chinaman" would be particularly offensive because it most likely originated as a term during the period of the Californian Gold Rush and the building of the transcontinental railroad, in which Chinese laborers were defined by their status as expendable hands for back breaking and ill-paying work. In that sense, it's a form of diminutive objectification and would have similar, but far less offensive in context, negative connotation when used to describe anybody of a particular nationality. That being said it's not inherently offensive to refer in that way to people who would be direct descendants of users of that language group. The proper word in English for another English speaker would be Englishman, Scotsman or Irishman. It would not be proper for a non-English speaker like a Chinese man.

Happy Birthday!

On a side note... whole lot of N-bombs getting dropped in here.
