E-40 Choppin’

Unbeatable at spitting slang.

Fact

I’ve been going through my old posts, looking for ideas for new ones and theories to expand on, and I’ve come to a realization.

I can’t front. My shit is brilliant. I am the shit.

That’s all.

P.S. I predict next Monday’s post is going to cause a lot of controversy. I encourage you to weigh in on it when it goes up.

Linkblogging Mini-Edition: Modern Single Women

Sometime in 2010 I plan to do a “Game for Women” month. But in the meantime this mini-linkblogging post should whet your appetites.

The accompanying article.

Also, an article from the Daily Mail in the UK. “The ego epidemic: How more and more of us women have an inflated sense of our own fabulousness.” Same dilemma across the pond.

A related article from the Atlantic, “In Search of Mr. Right.”

UPDATE: E-Sizz in the comments said:

Watch a little of the video with the sound off. She’s bug eyed manic. Whatever she’s saying she doesn’t strike me as a balanced person. She’s fanatical about what she’s saying, like Manson. From what I’ve read, her previous book was about her anorexia. I can totally believe it. This is a narcicistic, driven woman.

I note she smiles alot. Fake I assume. Her book/article seems pretty demanding and negative. She pretends to be affable and easy. Lots of dissonance there.

Is her book a long tirade to herself? A black hole of self absorbsion about why she shouldn’t be so self absorbed?

Interesting study for the professionals.

As far as her looking for a partner, the main quality that guy’s going to have is patience, or a long honed ability to just ignore what the people around him are screeching about.

Based on this article and this article, E-Sizz may indeed be right.

UPDATE 2: Americo added this link in the comments that I think is a great, great analysis of Gottlieb.

Fascinating Interview between bookworm Terry Gross from NPR and Gene Simmons from KISS.

It’s basically her politely calling him out for being arrogant and him calling her out for being a snob, but it’s wonderfully refreshing to hear his frankness and willingness to be politically incorrect regarding truths about men and women.

Expect Even Less Posts Than Usual For A While

I admit, I’ve never been the most prolific blogger out there even at my best, but I’m sure you’ve noticed I’ve become even less so lately. The reason is that I’m currently working on outlining the structure of a full-fledged book and an even more ambitious project that I won’t divulge until it comes closer to becoming a reality. I’ll start blogging more regularly as soon as I finish this outlining stage.

In the meantime, what are your thoughts on this?
