Did it involve raising up the bitches and forgiving them for being hos? Bustin' a cap in Satan's ass?
Ha. I couldn't have avoided laughing at that.
It had all the violence and language of typical gangsta rap, but at random points had a religious redemptive theme. I wasn't quite sure about the overall arc though. It was either someone "saved" from the streets, or someone who had fallen or both.
He was really good with complex rhythms and rhyme structures, but the subject matter just struck me as absurd.
Y'all are alternately horrifying the living fuck out of me and utterly cracking my shit up this morning. I want to COMM the last 200 posts.
Except tommyrot's link to the FOX news article, which I looked at for about 1.3 seconds and then had to back away from before I punched the computer screen.

Heh. March on Washington, DC, to protest the misuse of the phrase "begging the question" -- the march is an April Fool's Day joke, but the misuse is all too real.

Steph, that mislocution drives Bob craxy!
The trouble is, the "true" meaning of begging the question is totally counterintuitive from the phrase, and very specialized in its application (law and rhetoric, and not even modern writing rhetoric textbooks use it). Whereas, it's logical to assume that "begging the question" means "begging for the question to be asked".
That's one of those mis-uses that is totally predictable and inevitable, and doesn't deserve to be called a mis-use.
