Welfare Ads.

I am upset that we, the American people, keep getting duped out of our money (which ends in poor people still suffering and rich people still profiting), but all I could think after watching this is..."damn, media placement makes out like a f*ckin bandit."

I'm pretty sure my 3 year old godson could've made that print ad.

life-1, shaun-1

Recently, I have been trying to keep personal stories off of this here blog, but I must share...I just got an apartment in Harlem City, New York. HOLLER!

This is epic, because as you may or may not know...I was a grown up in Chicago, and was forced to downgrade myself for my job. Well...it appears as if I am moving back on up but to the west side.

*(cue life story)

After recieving the apartment, i was waiting for the Metro North at 125th and a bum lady approached me for money. What she did not realize was that she had approached me at the same time, in the exact same place, with the exact same story last week. And last week, I was so elated due to the new apartment find...I gave the bum lady $5 (I know, I know...very not me). The encounter went something like this:

Bum Lady: Sir, I hate to be a bother and mean no disrespect, but I am trying to collect money to get on a train to go up to a hospital, cause I'm pregnant....

Me: I don't have any money.

(she stops her story and begins to walk away)

Me: Didn't I give you five dollars last week?

(she looks back, and continues walking away)

(I raise my voice [a lil hoodish] so that all the platform hears me)

Me: I mean...did you go and come back? Or are you trying to collect for a plane ticket...

So....learning lesson, I may be gullable if I have just found the apartment of my dreams. But I'm no idiot. I refuse to get bamboozled twice, in a row. And I refuse to let you get away with it. And you guys should do the same. 

Cheers.

After party at my spot!

iran knows how to use the clone tool?

Oh man...Im kind of late with this, but its too good to let slide. Its no secret that Iran is in a global "my penis is bigger than yours" contest. But instead of penises/peni (thats twice in one post), they have been showing off their artillery for the world to see. Even though it reminds me of fraternity, 55 dudes live in one house, im a better xbox player than you antics- I understand the need to literally show the world that you are on the same level as them and should be taken seriously. So a slightly undersighted western country perceived as a third world, why not take pictures of you missile testing and post them for American media? "Hey stupid Americans, I can blow things up too...".

The funny part is that apparently they photoshopped in another missile. There was originally 3. But American media ran pictures of 4. Why have 3 missiles, when you can portray empeding doom with 4? Why test 4 when you can save your money and test 3, and clone the 4th one in? Photoshop...in Iran. That's one word association I would never think to make in my life. Iran....Sand. Yes. Iran....Alladin. Yes. But Iran...CS2? 

  Before.

After.

This is an untapped resource people. Fake photoshopped PR fear. I would be worried, but its only decent photoshop work. Not great. Nice try Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. Go set some type.
