I may cry like a little baby, but I ain't no BOY!

Certainly they can.

 

And you drink like a bird.

That's some shameful shit.

 

Dude, the line is: "Alright then. I ain't that humble."

This was me, at the end of the bar, trying to set you up, Lester Freeman style:

 

Shouldn't you be talking about nails and missing bodies, then?

 

My bad, I thought you were playing the part of Jimmy McNulty this evening.

I feel shame.

 

Usually I play the park of Jimmaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay, so it's understandable. Maybe this was like one of those nights on Broadway when, right before curtain, the actors announce they're swapping roles just for the fuck of it.

So tonight I'm Lester.

A life, Zeke. It’s the shit that happens while you wait for moments that never come.

 

Sometimes I wonder about people. Finding offense in every little thing said. Both sides.

Yes, white people can be thugs and or punks. As well as black, brown, yellow, whatever.

Get over yourself. All of you.

 

Perhaps, then, you'd like to ask the room if they've ever been in the military, or know how to make a 30-inch quick tie?

 

All potential thugs or punks:

 

Hey Boy! You look mighty fine in them jeans!

 

I've noticed that "thug" seems to be a very popular putdown these days, particularly for black athletes actually or perceived to be acting in an ill-mannered fashion.

 

HMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
