What 50 said was true at the end.. "You gonna get as far as the people you talk to for no reason"
That's why you got to be choosy who you associate with.
"What the fuck new information can he tell you if he's just standing on the corner all damn day?"
this is what i was trying to tell the fool in the other thread.
IN THE HOOD BEING SMART IS REALLY LOOKED DOWN UPON.
I HAVE MET MANY FINE WOMEN THAT I JUST COULD NOT HOLD A DECENT CONVERSATION WITH. SOMETIMES I TALK TO HOOD KATS,WHEN I BEGAN TO TALK ABOUT BUSINESS THEY GET VERY VERY QUIET.THEY END ALL CONVERSATION WITH ME BECAUSE THEY CANNOT RELATE (MIND YOU I TALK LIKE A BLACK MAN,INTELLEGENTLY BUT I STILL KEEP THE BASS IN MY VOICE ---AND I DON'T TRY TO USE FANCY WORDS TO MAKE THEM FEEL DISCONNECTED FROM ME.)
(BLACK MEN --STOP TAKING THE BASS OUT OF YOUR VOICE TO MAKE OTHER PEOPLE FEEL COMFORTABLE.I SEE THIS SHIT ALL THE TIME IN BLACK MEN THAT ARE IN CORPORATE AMERICA.)
I GET TIRED OF HAVING TO PLAY DOWN MY INTELLEGENCE WITH PEOPLE I GREW UP WITH AND I HATE HAVING TO TALK ABOUT SHIT ONLY THEY CAN RELATE TO.
MANY TIMES I FIND MYSELF AVOIDING PEOPLE BECAUSE WE JUST CAN'T MATCH WITS.

One of my homie's said, "Sometimes it feels that knowing too much is worse than not knowing at all." and it still rings in my head to this day. Arguing with a dumb mother fucker that formulates an opinion, then works backwards to try to justify it, is the most annoying thing. The people that said Fauci lied in the beginning about Covid, and now he's saying different things, all while I'm rubbing my temples because schools teach the scientific method in middle school. You don't keep wearing diapers after you're potty trained because you learned something new. Things change when new information is acquired.
