Eff ‘Em Friday
How fitting that our 300th post falls on not just any Friday, but Eff ‘Em Friday. You’d think that we’d be happy about the week right? Well…think again. Make sure you subscribe to the site though. It makes all our lives better. Now, time to start eff’n!

Eff this muthaf*ckin week! I.Am.The.Angry.Black.Guy. Did I have bbq this week? Yes. Did I have a great Italian family style meal this week? Yes. Did I have a productive week at work? Yes. Does that that mean I can’t be pissed? Nope! Eff snakes layin’ in the grass waitin’ to catch me writing dirty slippin’. I see you.
Eff all the folks who commented on yesterday’s post about eating healthy and how meat sits in the colon (ubbbberr pause) for 30 days. I love steak and hamburgers. Yall had me reflectin’ on the condition of my insides. Maybe I’ll cut down on the pork. That’s about the best I can do. Effff! I still love yall though. Just gotta eff ya this week….
Eff the fact that I been draggin’ ass every night. There hasn’t been an energy drink that’s been able to revive me to cure this Suddenly Fatigued Slim Syndrome. This weekend will be dedicated to rest. I wanna spoon too. Yeah, I like warm bunz bein’ pressed up against me like we grillin’ a panini. No forkin’ though. Sike.
Eff Joe Wilson. I hope he goes impotent…if he hasn’t done so already. If I were Barack, I would’ve turned and said “You must not know who I am…I’m the mutha effin’ POTUS B*tch! Eff outta here before I break you in half. Someone have Bovice and Orpheus escort this man outta the buildin’.”
Eff the mosquito that made a 3 course meal out of my head. I went to sleep fine and woke up more lumpy than poorly cooked grits. Mosquito, if I find you…I will body you.
Seattle Washington
Eff these folks for cramming as much bullshit as they possibly could within this 4 day work week. And eff myself for thinking I could coast through this week with ease. Eff it all!!!
Eff me spazzing because I thought lost my Moleskin notebook somewhere on the streets of Boston only to find it in my bag at the end of the day.
Eff last minute changes in the game. Pssst. You, yeah you. The project has been approved by everyone. You’re going to come in off the bench during the last minute of the 4th quarter and sh!t the bed?! Eff you man. Now I’m stuck at work on a Thursday night cranking away on a bull—- back up plan that probably won’t even see the light of day because we’ll end up going with what we had in the first place. And if it does see the light of day, I will be keeping my name off that potential piece of crap because it’s stinks so much the team from CSI: Miami wouldn’t touch it.
Eff these 8am, 8:30am, 9am conference calls. My brain doesn’t begin to function until 10am. I.am.not.a.morning.person. Now I have to pretend to be a chipper Black guy and act like I want to be here while I’m on the phone with you when it’s clear that I don’t. At all.
Eff my ambitions and drive. It literally hurts my soul that I can’t make right moves now, but I realize I must have patience and let things unfold as they may. However that is like telling a man with keys to a SSC Ultimate Aero to do a nice 30mph on a race track. Yes, I am comparing myself and my talent to the fastest car in the world.
Eff my Ace for getting that job. Yeah I know I said I was proud of him last week, and I still am, but eff him. I was hoping to get down to NYC before everyone broke out so the whole crew could party and live for a few. Eff you fam. And I say that as I make plans to go down to the ATL. Congratu-effing-lations chief.
Eff getting used to having certain folks around. Put a few miles back in between and things are quickly back in perspective.
Eff chicks who wear too much effing mascara. I’m being nice when I give you a church hug. I did not want my shirt to turn into the Shroud of Turin.
Eff having so much to eff this week. This is one of those times when folks should be lucky that it takes two weeks to get a strap from the government (even though I know someone who knows someone). As my cousin Mr. Maynard said, “[It] just makes me want to Falcon Punch these tricks.”
Miss Jenkins
Eff the Congress folk that still make decisions for the people of this country despite the fact that they can no longer eat solid foods or go to the bathroom on their own. Get the eff out of office.
Eff these angry black men I blog with. Not at the same time though. Happy 300 guys.
Eff Seattle for having a “Moleskin notebook.” Pause homie.
Eff all the reading I have to do for class. My weekend is shot. I guess this means that summer is really over, even though the weather has been indicating such for about two weeks now. And eff the fact that I will have to stop wearing chancletas soon.
Eff having to be on a budget and not being able to spend mad dough on the kicks I want. Eff having to make responsible decisions so that I won’t have to choose between having meals and drinking Red Bull at the end of the semester. Even though I will probably still end up making that decision anyway. Red bull usually wins. Eff my liver.
Alright good people, you know the drill.
Eff you very much, and have a great effin’ weekend,
The Three Ways Crew


Eff this chilly, cloudy, rainy weather. As much as I love my clothing options for the fall, I’m not ready for this type of weather.
Eff next week being a full work week. This 4 day week felt sooo good.
Eff me for spending all of my lunch break, plus 30 min, in the NC Museum of Natural Sciences. Eff it though, b/c the museum was definitely the highlight of my day.

This hate on Sci Fi movies by you educated black negroes needs to stop. I will defend my genre.
You left feeling happies b/c its was a Tarantino flick and you are a writer and the wordy dialogue makes you feel happy. Same with words… at the end of the day you let the genre overshadow the actual movies.
D9 was a better movie. Better plot. Better story development. Better conclusion. Better payoff. Better character development. Better twist. Better action. And since both a suppose to be based on historical events… a better more accurate use of history and social issues.
Tarantino just picks on an easy target (Nazi) and draws a bias bruttal picture of them… not leaving any room in the movie for their actions. “They are Nazis they are all bad so they die” Despite the fact that its was unbelievably innaccurate even in story line… but hey who cares about history and movies actually making a point… the characters talk funny right?
I don’t see how you can watch a good Tarantino movie and than watch a completely original Sci Fi flick and not realize that your Tarantino love is blinding you from appreciating the orginality of the Sci Fi. We have seen that movie before… all the characters talk like Tarantino depending on what drug he is on that day.
Further more I did not orginally compare GB and D9.. WaterPistol and Grey Pupon and his anti action movie buddy KG did! They had the nerve to compare GB to Dark Knight! You should be ashamed of yourself! DK! DK! D9 is the only movie that compares to DK. The only! Take your speech driven cult movies with poor smedium stories and go watch them in your small theater.. this is IMAX territory and you don’t belong.

Cheekz Ebert – As a writer I’m a sucker for a character driven, intense dialogue movie. However I am still an overall movie fan, hence why I couldn’t get down with “Reservoir Dogs” and why I thought Tarantino should’ve cut a good 10 minutes out of that basement bar scene in IG. And as a fan of SciFi and horror, I will say that that the character development and development was better in D9. The refugee and uprise metaphor was ill as well. Not as developed as maybe it should’ve been, but good for those who caught on. But as far as the payoff, conclusion and action – IG has it hands down.
But uhhh, are you comparing District 9 to The Dark Knight?!?! And did those two fools compare Inglorious Basterds to The Dark Knight?! I may have to revoke all your movie passes homie. Neither movie comes close to the greatness that is DK. All that criteria you listed, that movie has it in spades. SMH at you and your True 2 Life cohorts for comparing these two good summer movies to a classic.

there was little to no action in IB. They just cut people’s hair off and had one fight scene.
That is not action, that was bruttal violence. Did you see the action scenes in D9, Peter Jackson embarrassed Transformers.
I am not denying DK as having a place all its own.. I just said D9 was the best since DK.

Apples and oranges man. But I do remember there being a few times where I said “Oh Shit” when watching D9.
The best since DK? Maybe. This movie should beat out D9 though – http://www.apple.com/trailers/sony_pictures/legion/

i saw the trailer.. it does look dope. But I fear this jawn is going to be too comical to contend. But that is only based off the Trailer… i hope I am wrong and that movie doesn’t turn into the next Constantine.

Don’t be comin’ thru here making generalizations and sh*t about 3 Ways.lol. I know a good movie when I see one and a bad album when I hear one. I just don’t get caught up in either conversation too extensively.

I needed this today!
Eff the fact that it’s 9/11 and none of the radio stations in Atlanta had a moment of silence or a day of rememberance. We do have to move on, but we CANNOT forget.
More trivial stuff:
Eff my supervisor for being a passive aggressive pansy that can’t deal with women with opinions. I’m not pushy but I will tell you that your strategy is dumb. Everyone else in the office knows it, too, so I’m not crazy. Man up!
Eff men. Not all of them and not all the time, but dangit I’m going on month 9 of celibacy and it’s getting rough. I could’ve been relieved of this affiction if some dudes weren’t so effin slow! Argh!
Eff my old high school crush. We reconnected a few months back over a drink and I thought we’d keep in touch. He didn’t call or text, so I left it alone (I’ve seen “He’s Just Not That Into You,” I know how the game is played). Eff him for finally sending me a text last night. And eff me for playing the game and waiting to text him back!
Eff all this work I have to do today before 3:30…
That was cathartic – thanks!

Eff the people that think their “cold” is a sinus infection, viral infection, allergies, congestion, diarrhea, gonorrhea…yea I said it. Whatever you call it, I call it novel H1N1 influenza (swine flu). So please, if you have a cough – stay home. If you have a fever – stay home. If you just don’t feel good – stay home. Don’t bring that mess to the office, you gross-nasty!
Eff the mosquitoes that came through the window in the living room. My roommate and I had shoes in both hands try to slap the mess out of them. I’m pretty sure we killed about 10 of them. Fruit flies are one thing but mosquitoes? Now you’re trying to hurt me. No thank you!
Eff McDonalds breakfast…it’s just so good but so bad at the same time. I’m going back to Honey Bunches of Oats next week.

Eff the she-bear that squeezed her sloppy a$$ on the elevator and FARTED. I don’t know why your giving o_O, you’re the one who released sulfur smelling gas into atmosphere. You big, nasty, sloppy Hulk looking b*tch.
Eff family members showing up out of nowhere to borrow money. We are distance relatives for a reason and yes that includes distancing yourself from my money.
Eff dumb a$$ person who scheduled an electrical shut down without telling me. Not only did I lose data I was running but now I restart my week long reaction and I have to here another weekend. I hope you get infected with ebola.

Football starts this weekend….
Eff these talking heads who hate on troubled NFL players… they are not role models they are gladiators. I don’t care if they beat their wife or raped someone or how much weed they smoke, if they are good I want them on my team!
Eff the Redskins
Eff everyone in my fantasy football league who is complaining about my scoring adjustments… if I have a strength in RBS I have every right to give 5 points per rushing attempt!
Eff Scalpers…. I waited all morning to buy those Jay-z tickets for the show tonight. Hov at the garden is a legendary event and the fact that this is going to be broadcast live means Jay is going to be pulling no stops! Tickets were only 50 dollars! And they sold out in 15 mins… someone needs to kill these scalpers. They are ruining my hip hop.

Eff my Hang Over. I’m too old for this shit.
Eff Jet lag. San Diego is my new favorite place on earth, but the time difference is enough to commit suicide. Especially trying to fit a weeks worth of work (80+ hours) in a 3 day week.
Eff PC’s. I now have to purchase a Mac because “good ole” PC crapped out on your boy. Right in time to work on the Sales Strategy powerpoint this weekend.
Eff Overdue fee’s. I have to return some video tapes!
Eff Ticket scalpers and Ticket Brokers. Thanks to these clowns I now have to pay $480 for Jay-Z concert tickets tonight when they should cost $85 bucks. This is a charity event you assholes, your only stealing from a worthy cause.
Eff Sony Playstation 3. How are you gonna cut the price and leave me with this monstrosity of a console? And get the DLC content for Grand Theft Auto 4 already. You guys are useless!
Eff Fall fashion Week in NYC. This is the time of year I hate going out. Why do I have to buy 4 bottles to get into Bungalow 8 when I can walk in there and pay $18 bucks a drink on a normal night. It’s gonna be a long week and a half with these emaciated, pasty, sick looking broads galavanting around town like they own the shit. I hope you choke on your own vomit as you shove your fingers down your throat to gag up the rice cake you just inhaled.
I think thats enough venom for today. Enjoy your weekend folks, you’ll have to excuse me. I have a lunch meeting with Cliff Huxtable at the Four Seasons in 20 minutes

Like, Slim, I’m still thinking about the meat-sitting-in-the-colon ish. I actually remember hearing that way back when I was a kid, but I was a kid then and the only colon I was worried about was Powell.
Anyhows.
- Eff this week for being a 4-day work week yet it still went slower than Usain Bolt on Opposite Day. Dayum. Finally got paid up in this piece. I’m grateful today.
- Eff this A/C at work. Um, it’s still 60-somethin’ degrees outside. While you 2520s ya’ll blastin the HVAC as if it’s the Sahara? Gah. I gotta put a sweater on and then TAKE IT OFF when I go out to lunch. Stop it! I’m not a penguin. See these legs here? Not a penguin.
- Eff H1N1 for gettin’ folks all Monk (the tv show) and passing out bulk disinfecting wipes and hand sanitizer, furthering alarming the already germaphobe-prone. I really appreciate the gesture and I do love a cleaner desktop, but dayum…it was like SWAT teams busting from the ceilings the other day. I don’t wanna be all tense and ish just ‘cuz someone sneezes. But, now, I have to. Ah well, the bright size is just a tiny little case of the sniffles will have your employer BEGGING you to stay home. LMAO…don’t have to ask me twice.

Oh as for driving stick: Honestly this is soooo overrated you are not going to get paid more or get any job or anything better outta life just cause you can do this…it is one of those things that when it was the only way to drive the public probably drooled over automatics when they came out. But here we sit getting nostalgic over an old outdated technology, I guess we ought to get rid of power steering too!!!! In a city like NYC, Philly and Boston you are seen as a jerk for having a stick here you breaking down every 100 ft-God help you when texting and driving and here comes the 10 yr old darting out from behind a car.
All I see with some one driving stick is someone driving stick so what. My moms owned 5 cars staring in 66 all the way to 06 all of em auto’s.
I was more impressed she learned to drive from my dad got divorced and then brought four more cars without a man. I say this is one of the lame things that women think if men know yall can do this we may be moved, well not me or most of my male friends never mention this all we care is can she drive.
