Like in the 60's with Clapton around London, you will start seeing graffiti of "Shred is God" everywhere.
I am younger than him, so I do have some time. Despite everyhing about this dude, you gotta admit he is pretty weak. I have a new idol unless it involves moving back in with mamadukes AND this dude is for real about his lifestyle and surfing. I don't know if this is another example of "look how great I am" syndrome that plagues this nation. I am constantly trying to move forward in life, yet all I ever see is everyone bragging about how wildly successful they are. Is everyone that successful? I doubt it or I just really lack the motivation that I thought I had. Dammit, I posted on SwellInfo...Could have used this energy for something more productive...
Wow... It's really him! It's really him!! I though he was still hiding out in Lakewood, NJ at his moms house!
I don't think "racist" as a one-size-fits-all / broad brush label is going to work out very well. Example - go to Jerry Seinfeld's "Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee", look up Season Four, specifically George Wallace. Watch it. Turns out Jerry and George have been friends since the 70's or something like that. They're both comedians. George is black. Comedians "dig on" each other. However, as I watched it, Jerry was more dismissive of George than George was dismissive of Jerry. And more dismissive of George than he has been with other black or white guests on that show. Maybe George normally throws it right back, but didn't THAT time because it was Jerry's show. OR has that relationship always been lopsided in the "giving a hard time" department? I don't know the whole truth. I had a hunch, but I'm not sure what it's worth, that the relationship is lopsided. If my hunch is right, would we call Jerry's digs on George "microaggression"? If/because we judge there is microaggression, do we then label Jerry Seinfeld as a racist? No one to ten scale, there's only one size of racist, and Jerry Seinfeld is a racist? Because theoretically, you either are or aren't racist, right? I'm not trying to throw Jerry Seinfeld under the bus, I'm trying to point out we need to be able to discuss the "degrees" of this, and labeling people as racists for all transgressions blocks a real discussion.
