"Super" Mario. It's Deeper than Wii
I have a question, just jump til your head hits the box with the question mark on it, the screen will show you...
Stereotypes rule our lives, especially if you live in America. In America we're forced fed stereotypical occurrences repeatedly. This is usually via the NBA, NASCAR, graduate-level math classes, college in general, the PGA tour, Idaho, John McCain, rallies etc...
One of the most classic engines of Stereotype is the Super Mario Game Series.
Starting with the main character, Super Mario. He's a fat, Italian plumber. How many of those do you know? And how many are named Mario with a brother named Luigi skinny enough to snake pipes with his own damn body? NOBODY! It's just fiction that is very very possible, especially if you live in Queens.
The second generalization about the world in that game is very real though. Every time I ate a
mushroom I felt like I doubled in size instantly, and started killing really big turtles... If it was the right species of fungus.
WTF?
But, if Domino's gets my pizza topping right for a change, you bet your arse I'm huge, turtles fly, and gold coins float around for my grabbing... Only thing missing is the police.
I just love that the guys who drew up this game got rich instead of going to a really extensive rehab. I don't know which was better for them. The former probably was an economic stimulus for my city, Detroit; but, we won't go there. I just wish there was a disclaimer on the cover of this game because I ate a feather and jumped off a short building and just fell. I cannot find Bowser, I thought I saw him at the zoo but it was just my friends dad that is fat and emo. I have trouble finding dinosaurs to be my Yoshi, and I really have struggled finding a fat guy who would wear the same outfit as me, just red! Assume I'm skinny and played the part of Luigi.
Where are the black dudes in this drug flick? (that was my question, I'm just loquacious and shit)

The Photo Blog! Get in My Belly!
Fat Bastard sure looks small when no regular human is around for him to be compared to.
They must be doing his public weight count in tons!*
How lucky is that dude on the ground that the dude in the air is not Fat Bastard! And, just Nacho Libre!
"No One wants me the wrestla!" I got me own little-to-no-action figure! (check the armpits)
*Correction, metric tons, he's Scottish.

Look how small he looks next to his bath tub!

Manny Being Manny !!!
Manny Ramirez-positive test-duh!!!
Major Leaguer hops up the wall to give a fan a hand-clap, he's on drugs.
Major Leaguer turns down 45-million for two years in a recession, he's probably on drugs.
Major Leaguer acts an ass on a team in which he is the fan-favorite on, and a winner of two World Series,' might be on drugs.
Major Leaguer wears 'Dreads,' and baggy pants, he's at least smoking weed.
Major Leaguer is this blog's author, Marcus Alexander's, Favorite Player; point proven!
I love Manny, but Manny has issues, for that, my Conseco-radar has always been on spin. But, for those who don't know the whole story, or the story at all (because who cares about Baseball?) Manny tested positive for H.C.G.-a testosterone booster often prescribed to men with fertility problems.
I'm not tripping though, but I wish he wasn't on my fantasy team! http://games.espn.go.com/flb/clubhouse?leagueId=236192&teamId=6 (for those of you who give a damn.)
I dont think this is a big deal. Manny has never failed a drug test before, and won't fail another. I just wish 'Bud' Selig would allow 'Bud,' it's currently a banned substance. It's like a relative. Manny received a 50-game suspension.
Who cares?

This Idiot... "From My Hood!"
Ok, so on the warm weekends I sit outside on the porch. My whole city does, even the people with skin cancer. So this weekend, while I was wasting away on the porch in my hood, I was having a discussion with one of my grandma's neighbors. The topic was one of the usual ones in the D, "How America is Racist!" haha. This one was a classic.
So, this kid was one of those kids that thinks he's a genius, and gets all intellectual about shit that is not that deep (i.e. a 4 foot pool's percentage of chlorine).
But, I just wished the kid hadn't gotten on my porch this weekend because he wanted to talk about something he had no clue about! He wanted to talk about "Things the government makes black people see repeatedly to remind us that we are not white!" Is it bad that I laughed at that? Because I did, primarily because I know I'm black. And if I ever forgot I would just walk past the police station or watch the NBA Playoffs/NASCAR! Frankly, I did not see relevance in his rant.
Somehow he began to talk about different people we are forced to see in the national media, that clearly did not care about black folks (i.e. Michael Steele). Surprisingly, he started off well! He goes, "John McCain, the man's family was once one of the largest planters in the South. Code word for: his ole dudes had a bunch of my cousins pickin' cotton." All I could do is laugh at that for it's comedic mix of truth and tremendous historical inaccuracy. What can I say, he ain't a scholar, just my homeboy.
They he says, Uncle Sam! To me, this was interesting, because I could not refute it, but I never see that man anywhere! DO we still use him? I thought to recruit people we just used one of the following pictures:
P.s. The State of Iraq most likely had nothing to do with the events associated with 9/11.
For some reason, it's proven effective. A lot of people have some signed up for war. But, not one b/c of Uncle Sam; consequently, I rudely shouted next! Because, he was beginning to talk nonsense.
Then, this is when a heart attack almost took my young life, he said "the Quaker Oats Man!" The Quaker Oats Man is on everything (is he really) What? Just think about that for o
ne second. The Quaker Oats man. Now, I could be wrong, but I am pretty sure no quaker had that many slaves. I am sure a few had a few, etc..., but the Quakers were an integral part of the Underground Railroad right? I might be wrong, but I am too lazy to look this up. I was so pissed, because I like to give good white people from our country's beginning their credit because there weren't many. You know, like, Abe Lincoln, John Brown, JQ Adams, Abe Lincoln, John Brown... and so forth... Let me know if I'm wrong, because I really went off when he said that dumb shit!.... Excuse my vulgar English, No Parle ANY FLUCKIN FRENCH!
Zoom!

Top 10 Reasons Why Detroit is Often the Butt of Jokes!
10. The Detroit-based domestic auto industry has struggled recently, so politicians and broadcasters love to use the euphemism, 'Detroit,' to talk about the industry. "It just seems like it fits."
9. Detroit city employees reported that on May 1,2009, their payroll checks bounced! (I'm serious)
8. Rapper, Yung Berg was robbed in downtown Detroit for his "Transformer" chain, outside a club. It is reportedly worth "$70,000 and rather heavy." Trick Trick, however, said it was "not that sweet and that it's fake."
7. The Crack Heads! While they have meant nothing short of detriment to Detroit, they're funny, what more can I say?
6. On every commercial street in the city there is at least one of these: Liquor Store, Dollar Store, Beauty Supply or Church! Often times all four are present, as well as a gas station.
5. If there was ever going to be a city that would fight with a visiting professional sports team it would be Detroit, fighting none other than Ron Artest and the Indiana Pacers!
4. The most successful rapper from the city is a weird white guy, from a trailer park. That generates particular interest because Detroit is also one of the "blackest" cities in the U.S. Go figure!
3. Detroit is perennially ranked amongst the most dangerous cities in the U.S. and the Western Hemisphere.
2. Detroit's most recently elected mayor, Kwame 'the hip-hop mayor' Kilpatrick, is a felon; consequently, he is now barred from the BAR.
1. The Detroit Lions. In the 2008-2009 season they became the first NFL team, since the expansion, to LOSE EVERY SINGLE GAME. The team is now featured in The Hall as the only team to go [n/a-16] ever! (or 0-16)
FIVE SECOND BREAK FOR A SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT!
0. There are hundreds of good things about Detroit, but these are just funnier...
