It's so good to see the guys keepin' it real these days. I must say, Mikey made a warning that we shouldn't trade quality for quantity. So I'd just like to say to all the new panelists, I hope you guys strive to make quality posts, because you're representin' the realness.

On that note, I've made a realization about enemies today. Your worst enemy isn't necessarily the person that holds the most hate for you. Granted, enmity between people is a surefire way to make confrontation. But I think there's a far more lethal combination of qualities that makes a true enemy. See, when my best interests are at stake, it takes a special kind of person to jeopardize those. Someone with no compassion for my life, well-being, or personal quest to ensure the future of the human race. Someone with apathy towards what I hold dear. Someone with a sick disregard for being considerate or polite, ever. That would describe the qualities most reflected in my apparent enemy, Ryan Kee.
Now I could be wrong about Mr. Kee. But, I've been down with "the scene" for a while. (Unfortunately, the scene sucks.) I've been observant on the outskirts of "the crew" for a while, and I've been careful to watch this man's habits and personal qualities. Now, without saying anything intently malicious, and without being too brash, I will say that his penchant for joke and pickup line stealing came to smack me in the face very recently. Thereby being a direct attack on my quest to ensure the future of the human race, I consider his villianous quality of theft to be quite perilous to the good intentions of heroes everywhere. Also, in accordance with the newest fashions, Mr. Kee has been always quick to hop on the bandwagon. Styled hair, piercings, cool-guy clothes, his own "unique" trend. Now, in combination with those is a deadly Cell Phone Guy routine. He's now wearing a headset, thereby reducing the integrity of all his real life face to face interactions by at least 20%. It may very well be the end of Mr. Kee's already failing social skills. I will say that I applaud his extra effort around girls. But he's always keeping that hoes before bros philosophy. At least he's not gay. Or he's doing a good job covering it up.
I gotta say...I know I'm not cool. But I really don't try to unabashedly mask my uncoolness by trying to belittle other people constantly. And I don't gladhand people I hardly know like they were best friends in a vacuous manner in a vain attempt to promote my album sales. Truly, truly...I know life's not fair either. Of course, I came to the realization that my music sucked a long time ago. I didn't have to see a big box of my unsold CDs to realize that. And as far as the whole pursuit of life, liberty, and recreation goes, perhaps I don't go the extra effort sometimes...however, I also don't forfeit the integrity of others' noble pursuits. But seriously. Enough with the masquerades.

As always, bringing it to ya live,
