Although "The N Word" Is Said In This Post, I Am Not, And Never Will Be Racist
It looks like Blogger is not updating my site well. I made a post last night, yet it doesn't show up when I go to my site. Well there's some goodness coming to you, the nonexistant reader, if you can manage to find the lost posts.
So I was at work and Devin is all "What's your favorite hip-hop song?" (Which Mr. Ortiz would be quite offended at. Hip-hop is a culture, not a style of music!) So I say that it's "We Don't Care" by Kanye West. So we break into song, but in the beggining I say "And all my people say...," in stead of "All my niggas say...," which he says is the correct lyric. So he keeps bugging me to say nigga, and that it's not offensive and blah blah blah. But I'm like "No way!" But it turns out he had a bag of Snicker's popables, and promised me a few if I said nigga. So I said it when it was really quiet and no one was around. But then he's all "Hey everybody, Aaron said nigga!" And then he's all "Yeah now Courtney and Chantell hate you."
I'm not sure if they do cause they didn't act mad or anything ... but it's still akward. It's one of those things I'll never know and think of on my deathbed. See how much trouble Kanye West causes?

A word, that's all it is.
Words can only hold the meaning we place upon it. Nothing more, nothing less, our society is so deranged, a simple word can rally a response, and its actual context, usually, is lost in the welter of misleading assumptions.
Moreover, you'll find that people more often then not, need to be reminded of that point.
Take Care,
Neil
