For those of you following the men’s style Tumblrs, here is a non-Ovadia and Sons related post.  Apparently Lil’ Mama has a history of jumping on stage while folks are rapping for no damn reason.  This time its… The Game?  Nothing really happens after the minute mark other than Game continuing the last great diss track I think hip-hop will ever here.

Want to know why I’m not the biggest Nicki Minaj fan? Because if there were 3 Nicki verses exactly like the one on this joke track you would think it was a real Nicki song.

pardonmyreach asked: RE: Quoddy shoe sizes.

I went true to size (13) when I got my boat shoes and they fit perfectly. Some J.Crew and Urban Outfitters locations might have some if you want to try on a pair in person before ordering. It took mine 8 weeks to come in, but they were totally worth the wait.

socold asked: do you have any intel on how quoddy shoes fit? i know they have different size options but do you know if their sizes are true to fit?

This story broke a few days ago and I find it EXTREMELY interesting in both what is happening and how it is being reported.  Let me first say, I applaud the reporter in this piece for trying to report on the story in such a way as to not demonize the school for what they are doing.  In our “post racial society” (whatever that is supposed to mean) we forget that there are many wrongs...

Devil in a New Dress had my favorite musical section on My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy.  That bridge just before Officer Ricky spits is just amazing.  As this is just the Rozzay verse, pretty much the only reason its getting posted here is because it has that bridge to start.  This video had a LOT less bad women than I expected (none… so if you are looking for side boob and/or cleavage...

girouxmcisaak asked: I remember one of your earlier posts (way back, I think it was about a company selling regular 511's for like 100 dollars), you said you'd pay more for something like a button fly. Is there any reason why a button fly is good, or is it just a personal preference?

Now, she did break the law.  The problem I have with this entire situation is if you listen to what the opposition is saying they are essentially saying, “Because you don’t live in a more affluent community with higher taxes, your kids haven’t earned the right to go to these schools.”  I understand that schools are districted for reasons, but the fact that your...

So I got an email chain from my landlord going back and forth with the water company about how I hadn’t paid my water deposit bill since June of 2010 (though the first email was from last week) and how I needed to pay my water deposit and 6 months of delinquent bills.  The water company tried to call (my old number) and didn’t get through (mind you my number didn’t change until...

girouxmcisaak asked: CB,

I just wanted to say that I'm really diggin' your blogs and your style. You just went from "Guy I've seen quoted on blogs" to "daily blog rotation" real quick.

I was trying to think of a question, but I can't even think of one. Just wanted to give you your props.
