Did you even see the original post, 7andfive??? I bet not. It was actually a discussion of words.
“You see most of you are pussies and are scared of real Black Men!”
No wonder no one is afraid of you.
“What I’m with you on the use of the N-word. It’s offensive and considering that Dave lives in Bed Stuy he should know better.
If Dave wants to discuss the use of the word, he should have a discussion with one of neighbors and be sure to say the word exactly how he spelled. And then he can come back to Brownstoner and tell us what he learned.

The What (Put the Straight Jacket Back on)
Someday this war is gonna end..
what does “Yeah anit it thl” mean?
Yes, Biff it was.
“also that list is the top 50 ALBUMS THAT CHANGED MUSIC!
not the top 50 artists that are the most influential”
oh gemini, now you’re just picking peanuts out of poop.
say it. you love moz.
What…I posted that above… I don’t know why its not getting more press. This is serious.>>>>>
There’s a story out that is not getting much attention. It seems that the Saudi ruling family may be bankrupt. This may spread to about $60B+ loaned throughout the Middle east to various family companies.
I think we will hear more about this in the near future.
Although I believe that the global financial system has been largely stabilized, these things come out of nowhere.
I always believed in th back of my mind that the What’s predictions could come true but not from the financial part of the economy any more. His predictions could come true because of some purely egogenous event like Iran attacking Israel or N. Korea lobbing a nuclear warhead somewhere. These things are NOT discounted by the market.

It wasn’t supposed to be this way. Ahmad Hamad Algosaibi & Brothers Company is one of the oldest and most respected family-owned conglomerates in Saudi Arabia. It was a group that could borrow on reputation alone, with a son of its founder on Forbes’ world rich list.
Huh, Rich people getting the shaft???!!
But since one of its wholly owned subsidiaries, The International Banking Corporation (TIBC), defaulted on financial obligations to other banks this month it has sent jitters across the market.
BLACK SWAN EVENT coming right up! This fall is going to be beautiful!
Here’s the money shot!
The Algosaibi group has not responded to several requests for comment. But the fact that one of its subsidiaries defaulted has raised broader questions about the state of the oil-rich Gulf’s secretive family-run businesses as they grapple with the downturn.
The What (Buh bye! Thanks for the memories)
Someday this war is gonna end…
