    “Well, sometimes two women fall in love with each other, and that’s okay. Now eat your popcorn.”

    Jesus Christ, is that so hard, you fragile dickweed?

    Failing to explain concepts to children indicates more that you don’t understand than that they won’t understand.

    He got stripped of all cred the day he performed at Fat Loser Weaker Hitler’s inauguration.

    This isn’t even celebrity news at this point.

    Disappointing but he won’t be the last rapper who expresses conservative views. Rap as a genre tends towards having materialistic and conservative lyrics so maybe we shouldn’t be surprised.

      It’s mixed. There’s the two major sides of that coin that I would split the style into and one is hyper materialistic and sexualized while the other is full of political commentary and sometimes even talks about mental health problems among other things. Like, while I’m sure you can find examples of both from any one artist there’s for sure a stark difference between Snoop here and A Tribe Called Quest.

    Oh fuck. I saw this and assumed he must be creeping up into his 70s or something. Nope. He’s only got a few years on me. Well, a few years, and a significant amount of weed.

        hydrophobia isn’t fear of water.

        Yes, it is.

        words do not decompose that way.

        Yes, they do.

          hydrophobia isn’t fear of water.

          Yes, it is.

          Oh, jesus christ. 98% of the time, “hydrophobia” does not refer to fear of water.

          words do not decompose that way.

          Yes, they do.

          Oh, jesus aitch fucking christ. No, they do not. You cannot divine the meaning of a word you’ve never seen before by breaking it down into sub-word units of meaning. That’s just not how the English language works. You can get some hints, but you cannot definitively know what a word means, and fuck you for making me say something that basic and obvious out loud.

            Username checks out.

            Oh, jesus christ. 98% of the time, “hydrophobia” does not refer to fear of water.

            Perhaps true. What would you call somebody who was afraid of water, though?

            You cannot divine the meaning of a word you’ve never seen before by breaking it down into sub-word units of meaning.

            You absolutely can for many, many words.

            Not all words, of course. Some words, like hydrophobic, gain additional meanings over time.

            you cannot definitively know what a word means

            Sure, but this is a new standard that you seem have come up with in your rage.

            Words used in medical terminology (Like many areas of science) were made using specific latin roots for a reason you numpty, and the reason why is so the definition is clear and set, and there won’t be some idiot insisting a word means something it doesn’t.

            Take hypoglycemia for example. Hypo: Low Glyc: Sugar -emia: In blood.

            Just try to divine what hypoglycemia could POSSIBLY mean given that information. It’s a bit more than a fucking hint.

            Dermatitis? Derma: Skin -itis: Inflammation. Sweet JESUS what ever could dermatitis mean?!?!?

            Next you’re going to tell me pericarditis, containing the roots Peri (Around) Card (Heart, Cardio) -itis (inflammation) means inflammation around the heart! Insanity!

            So what ever in WORLD could a medical condition named HYDROPHOBIA ever mean?

              He’s probably referring to hydrophobicity in chemicals. Where the molecule is repelled by water. It’s often called hydrophobia as well.

              It’s a bad example for a bad argument.

                Yeah I guess this is more likely than rabies, though rabies is also referred to as hydrophobia.

                I’ve heard of materials being referred to as “hydrophobic” but never heard the discussion around that property as “hydrophobia.”

                It’s a bad example for a bad argument.

                Yes.

    When a celebrity hits a certain age can we just assume their brain is guacamole and not listen to them, ever.

      We shouldn’t really let celebrities ever be our moral compass anyway.
