You are the end result of a “would you push the button” prompt where the prompt was “you have unlimited godlike powers but you appear to all and sundry to be an impetuous child” – Zero, 2022
Hello. I slept much too late.
Re: autistic Fluttershy: I admit, I used to "diagnose" a lot of characters like that when I was younger. It was kind of a coping method, in a way--hey, this character's like me and they turned out okay!
That said, Twilight's obviously the autistic one. Think about it: she had to study how to have friends. :P
Re: brony documentary: I haven't seen it, but I don't doubt that the entire thing is basically "look at us bronies, we're so cool for liking a show made for little girls!" I dunno, that whole "we're special" attitude bugs me...lots of adults watch cartoons made for kids (look at the Adventure Time or Gravity Falls fandoms), the only thing that makes MLP different is that it's for girls. The idea that men liking something that's "for girls" is a big deal bothers me for...obvious reasons.
Re: Words with Friends board game: The funniest part to me is that it's manufactured by Hasbro, i.e., the company that owns Scrabble in the U.S. and Canada.
I see Kid Rock's Greatest Hits at Target too. Does that mean he's popular?
He is. Not as popular as he used to be, but he still has more fans than many of the bands that I like ever will combined.
I guess in a vague sense.
I more meant people who think that Lil Wayne is indicative of the current hip-hop mainstream, he isn't. People like Kendrick Lamar, A$AP Rocky, Tyler the Creator, and Joey Bada$$ are.

The former two mostly. You could argue that the entire Black Hippy Clique (Kendrick Lamar/K.Dot, ScHoolboy Q, Ab-Soul, and Jayrock) are pretty popular right now. What with good kid, m.A.A.d city being the most popular and widely-regarded hip-hop album last year and with Ab-Soul's next album right around the corner.
Speaking of which I think I recall Naney liking "Backseet Freestyle" from the former.
" On September 27, 2012, Lil Wayne passed Elvis Presley as the male with the most entries on the Billboard Hot 100 chart with 109 songs."
This is actually just a really clever marketing strategy.
Count how many of those are features, I'd be willing to bet at least half of them are.
The song which is set to appear this weekend on DJ Smallz’s upcoming mixtape “This Is That Southern Smoke Vol. 4,” finds the New Orleans native making an explicit reference to “beating” a woman’s genitals in a manner similar to the beating Emmett Till took at the hands of Roy Bryant and J. W. Milam

I have never seen the rap world turn on someone so fast. Granted Lil Wayne was never popular with REAL HEADZ in the first place, but he had his following. I'm pretty sure his career is very near over.
If there's one thing successful rappers know how to do, it's how to stay in the industry and how to work their business savvy. If this Lil Wayne guy has been around that long, he's probably not going anywhere for a very long time

This is a pretty common myth.
I'm sure he'll hang around doing something distinctly non-musical, but much like 50 Cent and to a lesser extent Dr. Dre, he's not going to be making a big musical comeback anytime soon. Honestly he hasn't had a good album or mixtape in awhile (his last album was alright but was saved mostly by guest stars like Tech N9Ne and Busta Rhymes). Honestly most pop-star rappers make very little of their money off of their music, which is why Lil Wayne is simultaneously "pop" without actually being popular. He's more a cultural icon than a respected musician.
Whereas someone like Kendrick Lamar is making almost all of his money off of his music, and is thus popular without being pop.
The only rapper I can think of that's both "popular" and "pop" is Drake. Who, incidentally, is the only other person on Young Money/Cash Money worth caring about aside from Nicki Minaj.

That's... pretty gross and messed up. Sick jokes are fine, but that's neither insane or restrained enough to be anything but insulting and offensive.

This is what I was talking about, dunno where this whole "myth" thing came from
I've known for a long time that the likes of Dre and Suge Knight stay behind the scenes working, which is essentially resting on their laurels but if these two (including this Wayne guy) ever want to make a comeback it would not be difficult for them to do so by any stretch of the imagination.

yeah I swear this is from a conscious rap album about growing up in Compton.
He is a rapper.
Also known as "weezy" for his distinct, weird-ass voice.
Yup.

in the immortal words of Ed, "absolutely nothing".This is my favorite Lil B song incidentally
shows off his rarely-seen more technical side.
That Spring Breakers movie I keep see being advertised is directed by Harmony Korrine.
Harmony FREAKING Korrine.
