So this is a song about programmers, so if you aren't a programmer, you probably won't appreciate it... at all. But I figure there could be a programmer or two lurking around here, so I'm posting it. It's a remake of a Gilbert and Sullivan song (Major General) or for the less sophisticated individual, such as myself, it's a remake of an Animainiacs song (Cartoon Individual) I am the very model of an elitist Software Engineer My Kung-Fu is wicked fast, the code I write is very clear I've master many languages, compiler theory I have read From C++ to Python scripts but not Cobol cuz it is dead I can debug any crash I see always in two minutes flat Add a data-break and check the heap, I've got techniques all down pat If all else fails, I'm out of clues, and I really have hit the wall There's one last trick, in my bag, I go and do a Rebuild All I sleep all day and code all night drinking Mountain Due by the case The only break that I take is a couple hours to watch Office Space Then I go back to my darkened room with a couple Twinkies in my hand And before I code I go download the torrent of my favorite band I always shower once a month, but thats ok cuz I never date When I meet a girl I say nothing because I find I can't relate I just go home and fire up my latest clips of Pr0n downloads Then I scrutinize my sorry life and then decide to write this ode Because: My Kung-Fu is wicked fast, the code I write is very clear I am the very model of an elitist Software Engineer

Top Dawg secretly voted for George W..... twice.

some1 explain that :ponder: It's kinda hard to tell with out hearing the whole song, or even knowing what it's about, but the jj/fp line sounds to me as a throw away line saying he's "fresh", kinda like "I'm fresh like will smith when he was part of the group jazzy jeff and the fresh prince" I could see how it could be a shot at will, saying he used to be good, but since he released as "Will Smith" he's not good anymore. But I more see it just as a minor play on words, stealing the word "fresh" from the name "fresh prince". And, yet again, I go against the grain on who I like to listen to, but I dig on Kanye's music. His beats aren't as hot as JJ's or even Dre's back in the day, but they're pretty good. His lyrics aren't as deep as KRS or even as thought provoking as Chuck D, Tupac, or Ice Cube, but they're reasonable, exceptionally deep by todays standards. Every now and then I'll try some underground hip hop, I tend not to like the music of it, but the lyrics are pretty good. Main stream rap usually gives me beats I really like, but the lyrics make me shake my head. ("my lumps"? give me a break) Kanye hits a nice sweet spot in my book, both his lyrics and beats are good. Not great, but good, and that, for me, is rare these days.

Hey Brakes, I check that site every now and then, but I haven't seen any voting or anything. Am I missing something?

My life has been crazy busy lately and I don't see that changing any time soon, so this project is officially on hold. :)

West Wing Season 6

I just thought I would share some happy news from my life. My lady just graduated from vet school! Hizzah! She has a few more weeks of things to finish up and then she will officially be a veterinarian and have the title of Dr. I'm enourmously proud of her. :) After 22 years of schooling her pretty little head is worth more than my house! I'm getting every girls dream, I'm marrying a doctor! lol :party: :Party_fest09: :drunk: :Party_fest09: :party: :w00t:

Jumping into the conversation way late.... You all seem to have taken something pretty different from Mr. Nice Guy than I did. I didn't take it as a diss track at all, I took it to basically mean that the real Will Smith isn't a push over who always turns the other cheak, but he chooses to show the positive aspects of his life to the public. I would disagree with battle rapping being what makes MC's. I think people dig KRS, Nas, Jaz-Z, LL, Kool Moe Dee, 2Pac, and Biggie cuz they made hot music, where/are talented, and brought something unique to the music. Will makes hot music, is talented, and brings many unique things to the music, but look at the tracks that get released as singles. The same old stuff.. "Oh boy, new Will Smith, yet another club song." He blew up with Jiggy but now it's just old hat with Switch, it's not new or interesting anymore. His singles are proof of what some of his worst detracters say about him... bubble gum rap. Of course we all listen to full albums so we know he does much more... But if you just judge an album based off of a single, than why would people judge Will any better than they have been? If you took his singles off of Willenium, B2R, and L&F and then released some of the better tracks, Wills rep would be very different right now, I think he'd be much more respected.

Interesting question. I think that LL has more love for the game, but Will has more determination. So I'm giving it to Will.

What's the point of his stunts? There doesn't seem to be any magic, he just seems to sit there. What am I missing?

Happy birthday Lerkot!!! Enjoy!

Freakonomics - This is the economics book that looks at things differently, famous for saying the legalazation of abortion in the 70's accounts for lower crime today. It's an entertaining read, has some interesting ideas, but makes to many assertions with out a lot of evidence for me to really believe too much of it with any conviction.

:word: Freaks come out at night and Five Minutes of Funk! There's some killer remixes floating around on those as well.

I've been wondering the same thing. Especially since I used all mine up in 20 minutes this morning :kekeke: The idea is that people who dont post much dont use up all my bandwidth playing games...ive increased the amount of plays 4 u guys tho havent worked out how to get rid of atk shop n guilds... tried for over an hour to get the radio back..the mod doesnt work..just ended up breakin the forum.. But where is Burger Time?!?!?!? I need to see level 7!!!

BURGER TIME!!!!!!!!!

Hizzah! Hands down, the best tv series EVER starring dinosaurs.

Missy, Kanye, Eminem, some of D12's hits, Destiny's Child, Ja Rule, and Ashanti are what comes to mind. :1-smile: Amazing restraint Tim! You know you really want to mock, you know you do! :lolsign:

Come on now, :topic:

A great Japanese proverb is: "Fall down seven times, get up eight."

In light of the frequent arguments that break out on this board, I thought I'd share why I'm trying to be more tolerant of peoples opinions. Perhaps if folks share more coming together experiences, more folks will come together. Who knows, I'm sure no Ghandi. :) I grew up very religious, in a very religious environment. In my late teens and early 20's, I've went away from that. I began seeing ways in which religion was hurting some people. Of course, at one time or another, it get's argued that just about anything can hurt some people, look at the current anti-video game stuff out there. However, organized religion really pushed my buttons, and I became very vocally anti-religion. Two and half years ago I met my Lady, we're currently planning our wedding. I came to learn her religious beliefs along the way and it really bothered me. I, of course, think my views are right and hers are wrong. However, one evening she was telling me about her childhood. She lost her father when she was young, 12 I believe. I, having two living and loving parents, can only imagine how tough that must have been. She told me how she deals with it... She knows her father is in heaven and that she'll see him again some day. That's how she managed to work through such a loss. Seeing such belief in her eyes and how much that thought helps her, it became so clear that religion helps her in a HUGE way. It doesn't matter if I think she's wrong about it, she draws strength and hope from it. That's what's important. So I decided that I needed to stop being upset that she believed in something that I though was foolish and instead be happy that she has something that can give her so much. I'm still very much learning this whole tolerance thing. Matter of fact, just last weekend I caused a fight with her about religion. But I think I'm getting better at it and I hope that I can become understanding and appreciating of all the different views eventually. :) That's the end of my story, do share your own! However, I have no intention of this thread turning into another "I'm right and you're wrong" brawl, I'll be deleting any posts that do any attacking or make negative comments. Fair warning. :)

I haven't really listened to much DMX, but wow, this song does not at all match with my mental picture of what DMX is about. Interesting.

I actually like a lot of Nelly's stuff, not G.O.A.T., but I like a lot of his stuff. Don't worry, Hero has already mocked me greatly for my enjoyment of mainstream rappers. :lolsign: And :topic: Will's WAY ahead in the poll now! :1-smile:
