Hopstretch Posted August 17, 2017 Report Share Posted August 17, 2017 Feels more like Hopkins. Thou art indeed just, Lord, if I contend With thee; but, sir, so what I plead is just. Why do sinners’ ways prosper? and why must Disappointment all I endeavour end? Wert thou my enemy, O thou my friend, How wouldst thou worse, I wonder, than thou dost Defeat, thwart me? Oh, the sots and thralls of lust Do in spare hours more thrive than I that spend, Sir, life upon thy cause. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swt61 Posted August 17, 2017 Report Share Posted August 17, 2017 Dude! Stretch was droppin' rhymes way back in the day! He was on Ice T's OG album. He was set to put his own album out in '92, but the man held him down. Some of us lucky ones still have the pirated tapes. It was called "Marshmallow Slim OCM". OCM stood for Original Con Man but wasn't exactly what you first think of. It actually was short for Original Connecticut Man, but the label wanted it more greasy, so they shortened it and put him on the cover. He looked a bit different back in the day... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swt61 Posted August 17, 2017 Report Share Posted August 17, 2017 Poppin' and lockin' baby! Wait, that dudes for real? He's worth $6,000,000? I thought it was just some goofy pic, never heard of Riff Raff. I'm in the wrong business. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mypasswordis Posted August 17, 2017 Report Share Posted August 17, 2017 Stay safe, Brent. You may identify with being white but these white supremacist shitbags are even getting DNA tests, which ironically prove that they are not as white as they think they are. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bad beards and ill-fitting plaid shirts are embarrassing, in my opinion. Especially when the person with both thinks they are "cool."

grawk Posted August 23, 2017 Report Share Posted August 23, 2017 it's just a casual photo, shrug. I promise I'm in more embarrassing photos, and I post them on facebook regularly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I promise I'm in more embarrassing photos, and I post them on facebook regularly. But do they include a nice watch? If not, you're just shitting on me, and the photo that I recently found, for no reason. Hip-hip-hooray, I guess. You're the man now dog. Roll something-or-other. That picture is almost 12 years old, and I thought it was funny; the watches thread hasn't had a lot of watch related content, lately. You be you, Dan.
