trenchmc said: Damn Em used to be dope. f***ing great rhymes and grimy beats, love it. Mos Def was nominated a few times too, didn't win though...Em beat him out (as he's done so many times). Everyone was talking about the Grammy's yesterday, disappointing.D*mn, good job, man. That's smarts. I actually got a gold medal in the science olympics in aerodynamics for building a paper glider that stayed up longer than anyone else's, but I don't think that's a big achievement... they gotta stay up off the ground for a long time if you're gonna nail the teacher in the back of the head all the way from the back of the classroom.
As far as being nerdy, dude, in the same boat. Awkward black kid with slightly crooked glasses, several music posters in my room and an encyclopedic knowledge of film, music, books etc. I'm on the Knowledge Bowl team for my school for christ's sake (but guess who qualified for nationals in Chicago?). So I guess there are pros and cons.
nah, jk.My girl kneeled on my glasses on accident, and now mine are all bent up too, and I completely understand the encyclopedic knowledge thing. I'm the only person I know who studies cartesian dualism, the Three Marks of Existence, Orson Welles, and Wesley Willis on my lunch breaks at work.
