Confessions

Not proud of this.

Whenever I deal with somebody that speaks in an African (especially W African) accent, I automatically devalue whatever they say and deem them full of shit.

Wasn't born this way. Don't think my parents ever encountered many African accents so it's not their fault. This one comes from my own experiences.

In most cases, this is wisdom lol. But Africa is a huge continent so your generalization is a tad brash. Congolese speak French and Portuguese, Mozambique is all Portuguese, Namibia is English and German, in South Africa alone we have more than 10 OFFICIAL languages each coming with its own accent. So when people try pretend to know anything about the continent, I automatically deem them full of shit. Wasn't born this way just my own experiences traveling and listening to ignorant people.

ROFL... it is a crazy place man. Hell I don't trust anybody from here, except for the Malawi chaps, they are really solid characters. And if you want to hear somebody spin you a good yarn, S.A is the place to be for sure.

But yeah accents etc are all over the place mate. Biggest surprise is hearing a 'posh' British accent from guys in Zimbabwe. They can sound like they grew up right in the UK it is mental. Same goes for the Congolese, walking down Long Street in Cape Town hearing French accents from the the African fellas trying to sell you coke is something that takes you by surprise first few times lol. Africa was colonized by everybody, so you find that all the most widely spoken languages are not even from here at all...
 
I gotta confess.

It's a long list, maybe in another thread? ;-)

I never wished to tell this. I had to slap my own elder sister in the face. She slapped my mum a day before that and I tried a lot to explain her that our parents should be respected. After all the hardships our parents had to undergo to raise us, being the eldest one; she should have kept that in mind. She forgot that she had pairs of clothes to wear when mum only had one. She forgot how my dad used to take her to school in his bicycle. She even forgot her little brother who was ready to adopt her kid and raise as his own.

She will be the last and first woman I have slapped and I had to do it. Nothing against gender here, if I had a brother- this won't be the case.

I felt good to share that, a burden from my hearts gone.

Peace,

Toker.

Keep in mind, this is the confessions thread. Wasn't trying to come off an Africa expert and knew full well that the visceral 'opinion' I have developed is just so much shit. Spent too much time in Washington, grifter's Capital of this hemishpere. Sometimes you get a skewed perspective. It has not helped that 80% of the cabdrivers I have encounter learned to drive in Lagos. Lagos must have some really interesting driving.
 
Confession, currently being processed out of the marines with an honorable discharge because I'm fuckin crazy, yaayyy...

Edit: oh yeah, and I only have one testicle because of a tumor. I'm the fucking one nut wonder. When two of my friends and I hang out we're two and a half men. Do I have the balls to do that? A matter of fact I don't!

That reminds me of when my sister got lippy and I had to just punch her in the mouth back when i was a young child.

Okay, the two incidents weren't comparable at all.
Bitch had it coming though. So far the only woman I have closed fist right hooked in the face.

It takes more than a ball to tell what you just said. Saalute!!

The one who makes fun of his sorrows have already found his peace in life. Cheers to you :)


Peace and Love brotha :)

:D Steve,

My sis kicked me in the balls when I was young and went to wake her up. Couldn't piss for two days. Maybe she had it coming too, karma! If what I did was wrong, I wouldn't mind being alive and suffering for the rest of my life because it was for my mum.

Life is a ridicule sometimes


Cheeers brotha!

Crazy is good :) Oh and posting this as your first post here tells me that one testicle must be pure titanium. Welcome to RIU and Semper Fi.



Now to my confession, I'm shucking all my clothing and I'm going to streak nude from my computer to the spa and canonball in :) It's 46 outside brrrrrrrrrrrrrrr... I bet those 10 feet will feel more like a mile... be safe everyone.

Trying to figure out how you drove and threw the deer stomach at the same time... and... why would you have a deer stomach on hand.. when you field dress a deer you leave its stomach behind...

I pick up road kill deer for the state. Some of the deer are blasted and in pieces from getting hit by semi trucks.

I get pissed when people get to close to me on the freeway.
 
So you dont like people close to you but you keep deer innards next to you on the front seat? Not calling you a liar.. just seems very unlikely..
