If a person is blasting young geezy or lil wayne then I definitely look at them a little differently the probably just stole something or on there way to buy/sell weed and/or coke. Even though I listen to them and dont sell drugs or steal.

If a person is blasting techno then I assume that they do drugs and fuck underage people. Even though I listen to it and I dont do drugs besides alcohol. I also dont fuck underage girls.

If a person is blasting non-violent independent hip hop I automatically assume they have a higher than average IQ.

So I spoke to my roommate who was up later than me last night and he went out for a midnight smoke and noticed a car moving slowly down the street. Our neighbor's light quickly flickered on and off about 3 times, the car pulled up aside the apartment, and 2 white dudes in wife beaters hopped over the balcony railing, bolted to the car, and the car zoomed off.

Now this could all be good clean fun but I'm telling you Mozart enthusiasts don't do this shit and I feel like I'm living some ghetto version of Alfred Hitchcock's Rear Window.

you're taking the piss.
every time you come back with some dumb shit.
its like you know what everyone is and what everyone does.
you should watch the wire.
mozart listeners dont do this shit? ,maybe not, but you can bet that a few nozart listeners baked some jews not that long ago right? and when that shit went down with the banks recently you can bet that not one of those b(W)ankers was listening to thug shit (and is shit for the most part, like most american pop culture)..
but you know what? they've done more damage to the US than any wife beater wearing yo ever did.
wasn't rear window about paranoia?

he's not taking the piss, his apartment complex is pretty huge.

Beats, don't let them know you're watching.

and FFS get a videocamera and put some grease on that railing!!! they make it in different colors to match whatever you want to put it on. that stuff is a bitch to get off. :evil:

Heh heh. Corbin and I were talking about buttering the railing for typical youtube greatness.

And yes, dredd, part of Rear Window is about paranoia. Have I really been hiding my paranoia here? I thought it's been pretty transparent. Just as a reference, the instant somebody throws Hitler into an argument that pretty much says you've run out of valid points.

ok no hitler stuff.
but the valid points i made earlier in this thread were ignored by you.
ie You made it racial.
that you're judging peeps on some pretty flimsy evidnce.
and the mozart point is that all types of people are doing bad shit in many neighbouhoods, and its kinda fucked trhat you're turning fear of your neighbours into SHADY goings on. its making you sound a little brainwashed by news, media, and all that other bullshit, that you often seem to see right through.
its nothing to do with hip hop listeners dude, you see that now right?

I'm not sure I understand the purpose of this. Weird.

He's probably a cop.
