Early this morning I’m driving to work listening to Charlemagne THE GOD(105.1) call Funkmaster Flex(97.1) the DONKEY OF THE DAY. Seems like Flex has his nuts in a bunch over the heavy criticism/ridicule Mr.Cee is getting from THE BREAKFAST CLUB. No need for me to mention AGAIN what he was arrested for.

Audio from Flex’s show was played and he pretty much said if their verbal assaults continued it was gonna be on and poppin! …..I’m sitting in the car thinking to myself Uuuum Flex is about my age early 40’s is he really that immature and EGO’D out to get involved with something that has nothing to do with him! It’s Mr Cee’s DICK that was caught dingle danglin! All he’s doing is drawing more attention to Mr.Cee and that situation. SHUT THE FUCK UP and let Grown Folk handle their own business!!! Once you pass the age of 40 BEEF should no longer be a part of your vocabulary.

Folks in Hip Hop need to relax. Just last night I watched Jim Jones on Love & Hip Hop( Don’t Judge me) threaten this dude because he said he makes 10,000 per show and called his Lady trifling. REALLY!!!! Last time I checked 10,000 to do a show is a HELL of a lot of money! As for his lady. If anyone reading this has watched it those Producers do have ole girl looking kinda trifling. Anyway dude bitched up when Jim stepped to him and apologized with teary eyes! All I could do was SMH cause that had been ME! I woulda talked even more shit in front of those cameras provoked Jimmy into a NICE BIG JUICY LAWSUIT and possible jail time! Rumor has it they locking rappers up for less!

All I’m saying is this. The HIP HOP community needs to take ALLLLLL that AGGRESSION and focus on creating and promoting better music! Period! Stop letting your over sized EGO’s and ARROGANCE get you into trouble you’re gonna have to dig yourselves out of later. When you’re a celebrity people are gonna talk about what you’re doing or NOT doing. Comes with the territory

So if you don’t want people talking about you don’t do CARELESS or DUMB shit!

Mr Slish’s 2 cent’s and a Nickel… Latuh

Pause

This weekend was a BLUR! Saturday my mini me Tasmanian X ran his daddy around the couch, under the bed and into any closet he could hide in! JUST to avoid putting on a PULL UP! His final attempt at escaping little niglet ran into a wall! ” HA! GOTCHA!” I put my future running back to bed, plopped myself in front of the tele, and started flickin….Hmmm Eat, Pray, Love is about to start. Lemme indulge.

2 hrs later. That was some bullshit! Wife leaves a perfectly GOOD marriage so she can find herself but ends up even more fucked up than before . ALL seems lost until she meets a scruffy Brazilian dude who’s been holding the KEY to her happiness the ENTIRE time! Ummmmm HELLLLLLO People !!! When men do this! Its called ABANDONMENT and the foreign chick we end up with only speaks english when it’s time to go shopping for PRADA, GUCCI, and DOLCE GABBANA! So this movie can go kick rocks!

As I sat in the living room FUMING over the fact that this FLICK is basically telling women they have a get out of jail free card if their marriages aren’t what they expected MY WIFE walks in and asks ” You going anywhere tomorrow?” I press the pause button on the remote and turn my head towards her.

” Uuuuum Yeah Dingle-berry! The pt job I’ve been going to EVERY SUNDAY since we acquired this BIG ASS MORTGAGE!” is what I wanted to say, but I have a new and improved filter ” Yeah babe. Remember I work at the Group home every Sunday ” she leaves then comes back 5 minutes later with her sour puss face in FULL EFFECT! I press the pause button again.

” I need to get away!” Heeeeeere weeeee Go.

” What’s the matter hun. What happened? ” She sighs

” I need to get away FROM HERE!” What’s wrong with this woman! The Slasher is about to go BALLISTIC, but my new and improved filter has an added feature. The Slasher Nullifier ! I calmly respond

” Where you thinking about going babe?

” My mothers” So she wants to abandon this Love Boat and swim to hell! Hmph! She’s looking for some attention. Of course I play along.

” You taking the baby?”

“Yup”

” D staying with me? ”

“Yup” I focus my attention back to the television and press pause to release the characters.

” Have fun” I sense her squinting her eyes at me like she wants to slap the remote out of my hand!

Ya see folks. I refused to feed into my wife’s mini tantrum. She was looking for an excuse to execute her version of EAT, PRAY, and DITCH! If I’d responded the way I usually do she woulda packed her bags that night! Instead I came home Sunday evening to BBQ pork chops, macaroni & cheese with some waaaaarm cornbread.

Cmon say it with me ” Who’s the Master”

The Hot Chick

The Hot Chick:

Manicured nails, Indian hair woven into her scalp, coke bottle figure that goes POP POP POP!!! Most YOUNG dudes want a gal like this, but when they finally get her they realize every other Negro wants her too! So what’s a brotha to do?

Chain her up to his bed post so she can’t leave the house on Friday and Saturday nights!

Burn all her tight dresses and break the heels off her peep toe shoes !

Stop giving her money for that long ass weave you like to pull on while slapping your pelvis against that coke bottle boootaaay!!!

Nah Bruh none of the above. The Hot Chick CANNOT and WILL NOT be tamed!!! You gotta ride that wave till it flattens out can’t force The Hot Chick to comply with your insecure demands. She’s HOT! You’re naive to think that NOOOO other dude is gonna wanna slap those cheeks together just cause you cuffed her..After all your name is NOT tattooed on that PHAT ASS!

OK maybe some of you realize that, but rather she tone it down now that she’s with you. HELL NO The Hot Chick doesn’t know what tone it down means! She thrives on the attention! Makes her feel good about herself. She has yet to evolve into a what you expect her to be.

I’ve dated plenty of Hot Chicks and it wasn’t till I got to my 30’s I realized I was going about things the wrong way. Getting mad and making a scene in public only pushed them towards those waiting in the wings. If I showed no fear and stood proud with my shapely vixen. Dudes wouldn’t be so quick to Holla and she’d see that her MAN is a Secure Sexy Beast!

So my young niglets stop trippin if you’re dating a Hot Chick cause she sho nuff AIN’T!!!

All In The Name Of Love

Posted in Uncategorized on March 19, 2011 by Mr. Slish

I’m up at 3:39 am searching online for some mellow obscure tunes to inspire me to actually write something worth while.  I click onto my boy Grantlove’s website( mtme.wordpress.com) cause I know he’s good for some shit like that. Haven’t spoken to him in a while so I called last week  he didn’t answer his phone. Shit he never does so I didn’t take it personal just kept it moving like I usually do. Seems I’ve been doing that a lot lately( the not taking things personal part) when deep down the SLASHER wants to send him an IRATE email as to why he should answer my phone calls! Anyway back to listening to his rare groove selections.  It’s actually kinda cool. Smooth, laid back tracks from the 70’s and 80’s. Half this shit I’ve only heard sampled by these no talent musicians passing themselves off as producers.

Okay that was enough warming up I’m ready to get down to business.  First I’d like to say What’s up Blog family! Uncle Slishy has returned.  For how long I don’t know, but for months  I’ve had things to say but Husband/Daddy duty kept my ass off the laptop probably the reason why I’m up in the middle of the night. THIS IS THE ONLY TIME I GET ALONE!  Between my wife, a precocious teenager , and  the TYRANT we now call Tasmanian X it’s HARD to sit down and  get SHIT off my CHEST. Nonetheless I wouldn’t trade it in for the world!  

Yeah my wife gets on my nerves, suuuure my stepson refuses to get up on time for school in the morning , of course Tasmanian X took a DUMP in the middle of our living room Yesterday. It’s all good cause I’ve come to realize life isn’t worth living without a few ” Daddy PEE PEE” and “BABE our tenants are moving out. Things about to get REAL TIGHT” moments.

Been married over a year now and I must say it’s comforting at times and HELLA frustrating too.  The frustrating part is that I don’t get to be SELFISH anymore and I used to get a kick outta that. Don’t give me the side eye  it’s good to be selfish keeps balance in the universe. Now I’m just selfish with my time. Hanging out with the fellas and getting a few drinks after work  are things of the past. All I wanna do  is come home to my family and deal with whatever they throw at me.  BEST BELIEVE they throw some heavy shit too!

So in the name of love I’ve given  up some things that made me ME and have to chosen to indulge in what make us a FAMILY

Stay tuned for more stories of Slish the Family Man…..hahaha riiiiiiiight

Derailed

I can go from 0-60 in a matter of seconds when it comes to getting angry. The wrong tone of voice, misplaced humor, a brush off, slammed door in my face, just about anything I perceive as disrespectful will set me off. Since I’m married to a stubborn woman and supervise a bunch of cry babies at the workplace the Slasher has been present more than usual.
 
This  flaw in my personality is a bit hard to manage so I’ve conditioned myself not to hold grudges once I’ve had a disagreement with someone. The next day it’s like nothing ever happened business as usual for me. Yeah that simple right? WRONG! The folks I’ve made angry still wanna grind my nuts into bread crumbs! lol
 
Here’s an example of what I’m talking about. My wife has been sleeping in the living room for the last two days probably gonna shoot for a third tonight because Saturday afternoon she set the Slasher off and he literally told her to go fuck herself. Will she forgive me? More than likely. Did she deserve to get cussed out that way? That’s a  matter of opinion but either way there’s always an alternative to what’s easy and  saying Go Fuck Yourself was way easier than explaining why she had no right to call me SELFISH!  
 
Anyway my POINT is this. The World is full of Slashers, but that doesn’t mean you shut everything down because of them. We all have too much at stake to allow an individual to derail us from normalcy. My wife sleeping in the living room sends the wrong message to Little D and X. They’ll grow up thinking its okay for husband and wife to sleep in separate rooms. 
 
Check this out people! Our society/families depend on US way more than we could possibly imagine. I’m gonna give you a far-fetched analogy that kinda relates to the point I’m trying to make. What if toilet bowls had a sense of smell and refused to flush your shit because of it’s foul odor. That’s right! The WORLD would be full of shit!
 
Folks do you see where I’m going?  It’s okay to get yelled at, cussed out , even backed into a corner that you wanna dig someones eyes out!  It’s okaaay  just don’t let it
 
STOP YOU FROM LIVING,LOVING, TEACHING, and most of all PROGRESSING.

” Your boyfriend is one of those  Yes Dear, No Dear kinda dudes” a little annoyed my ex-girlfriend responds 
” He is sooooo not that. I’m starting to get upset cause you don’t even know him.” I’m grinning from ear to ear on the other end. This is way too easy…lol…Slasher decides to push her over the edge some more.
 
” Arent you glad I left you. Now you’re with the man of your dreams” She sighs
 
” Why do I continue to call you.” I’m sitting at my desk nodding my head in agreement thinking the same thing. Slasher decides to take a HARD left.
 
” Can I be honest with you for a minute? “
 
” By all means”
 
” Both you and my wife share very similar character flaw oops I mean traits. “
 
” You say that to say what”
 
” I say that cause if I were single and we’d met today. Maaaaybe we woulda gotten a long better. Shit we probably be headed down the aisle. Patience was something I lacked then and now. The difference today is that I’ve learned most women are hardwired the same. So I  block out  the annoying shit that drives me crazy ” she responds with a
 
” Ha!  I would have never let myself marry you.”  
 
Slasher knew she’d say that and was ready with a rebuttal but Slish stopped  him before he could open his mouth ” When X was born who let you use their Buy Buy Baby discount. DUDE! Didn’t she just get X a nice little outfit no less than a month ago!” Shit! He’s right.
 
” You’re right luv we probably woulda been at each other’s throats. I’m glad you’ve finally met the person you see yourself with for a lifetime. Sorry for calling him names it was unwarranted and unnecessary. It won’t happen again. ” I say my good byes and hang up.
 
For the life of me I couldn’t figure out what triggered my verbal assault. She only called to check on me and make sure my family was okay. I mean We are friends right? I forget that sometimes cause we were never truly friends in our relationship and I think that’s something I’ve struggled with my entire life. I never quite got the concept that your significant other is supposed to be your best friend. When I’m in crisis I’ve always turned to my closest confidants(male or female) never the woman in my life. Could be the reason why I’m such a horrible listener when it comes to them.
 
As I sit here typing this I’m thinking all the tears shed due to this major flaw of mine. DAMN! This shit gotta end, but I honestly don’t know if it can. I’m set in my ways probably too old to change. So I’ll take this time to apologize for any damage I may have caused, and to inform those who didn’t make the cut…
 
DUECES…..lol…

Brothas

Posted in Uncategorized on September 11, 2010 by Mr. Slish
ImageI surround myself with women at the work place. Whats with the side eye! I know I’m married, but I enjoy their conversation. Men don’t express themselves the way women do. I can walk into the lunch room and SET IT OFF with just one sentence. With the fellas not so much.
 
Men especially Brothas don’t like to share anything! If  they thought about THAT for a minute. They’d realize you can extract more personal information from an individual by just sharing tid bits of your own. That being said Yo boy Slish shares his experiences like a reformed crack head explaining how he got hooked!  To the masses its refreshing. Folks wanna open up and tell me all kinds of things. Do I  mind? absolutely not.  It helps to know I’m not alone in this struggle.
 
We all have shit we’d like to get off our chest. Why keep it to ourselves when you can share it with someone who’s either going or gone through something very similar. Insight from another individual can keep a person from going postal. How many times have you heard about a woman shooting up an entire office? That’s right NOT OFTEN! You wanna know why? Cause they express themselves fellas! Maybe a little too much for my taste but at least they get it outta their system.
 
 I wrote about this in a previous post and since then I’ve been making a conscious effort to reach out to my immediate brotherhood. Giving advice and taking some when necessary. It’s kept me from doing some really dumb shit. Just the other day I was so Pissed at Shawnla that when I got off work I took a detour to my boys house and sat in his basement sipping Pure Hennessy White while he explained the do’s and don’t s of married life. I left there relieved knowing I wasn’t the only husband who felt like the ball and chain was being wrapped around their throat…lol
 
It’s time MEN especially Black Men started their own support system. Lets try to be there for one another. Stop being so cut throat, competitive, and unforgiving. Share your stories of heartache, past mistakes and triumphs. In other words be fathers to those that never had and brothers to the ones that do.
 

99 Problems Ya’ll Know The Rest

“You have a problem with me not working!”  Why is she calling me at work with this bullshit! She damn well knows I can’t respond the way I want to.
 
” Uuuum ”  Hell yeah I have a problem with you not working. I have a problem with the fact that you got FIRED the day after we moved into a HOUSE  we JUST bought! Not to mention those unemployment checks are the only reason why I haven’t HYUUUUUKENED YO ASS! ” No babe. I do not have a problem with you being unemployed”
 
” Well! What you said to me this morning  has me thinking you have a problem with me not working”  (Scratchin my head) So telling her Little X is awake is a CLEAR indicator that I have a problem?  I better look under the bed for that crack pipe cause she’s definitely( in my high-pitched voice)SMOOOOKING!!!
 
” Once again I don’t have a problem , but you do give me that lazy vibe every now and again” In other words it drives me fucking crazy that you’d rather pretend like X isn’t awake so u can lay in bed a little longer. Fuck that! When he’s up you’re up! I don’t care how much sleep your unemployed ass hasn’t gotten! No one told you to stay up till all hours of the night watching JESUS channels! Lawd help me if  I find out you’re giving them our hard earned dividends again! 
 
” I’m giving you the Lazy vibe! When you come home from work the house is clean, dinner is made , and the yard work is done. You have the nerve to say I’m lazy!!! “
 
” Honey that’s not what I meant ”  Damn right I meant it! So the fuck what you do all that! It’s the least you can do for getting yo silly ass fired from a damn good job! What you’re doing to me now is the VERY reason your boss fired you! You don’t know when to shut the fuck up and you’re always picking the wrong battles to fight! Keep it up! You’re gonna get fired from this position too!
 
” If you have a problem with me not working I can always leave” I laugh cause she always threatens to leave or kick me out. I guess it’s part of the training she received from her momma after all she’s on her third husband. 
 
” Cut it ooooout. You ain’t going no where. You done? “
 
” Yes! ” Click!  
 
That  right there is married life from a man’s perspective. She gets to say what’s on her mind and we get to THINK about what’s on ours….lol
 

In Bad Company

Parenthood can be a gift and a curse. The gift part is when your children come into this world. They’re cute, cuddly and worship the ground you walk on. The curse is them growing up and turning into snot nosed arrogant bastards!  I know I know our generation has been there too, but we only gave our parents  a minor glimpse into the HELL these teenagers are causing today!  
 
Social Services has fucked up good parenting. Instructing teachers to tell their students to call 911 if they feel they’re being abused is reckless. Kids today are smarter and more brazen than we were. They’ll lie at the DROP of a HAT if they know it’ll save their ass or bring them closer to some deceitful goal… To them its a means to an end they don’t think about the consequences!  That being said reserve that speech for the child sitting quietly in the corner watching his or her classmates cry wolf! Cause more than likely they’re the ones being abused. 
 
Most of my peers myself included have a teenager living under our roof. It’s a major challenge to say the least and will have you mumbling “I KNEW contraception shoulda been used the night this muthafucka was conceived!”
 
My stepson Little D is 13 now. Since we’ve moved into our new home he’s left his keys with a stranger TWICE he finally lost them about 3 weeks ago. Now some might say that’s what teenage boys do and that’s fine, but he could at least be apologetic. This lanky man-child showed no emotion when the Slasher tongue lashed him! My cousin’s teenage daughter took his sixty thousand dollar Range Rover for a joyride and YEAH SHE DOESNT HAVE A PERMIT!!!  You think she tearfully said “Sorry daddy I made a mistake” noooooooooo it was more like ” I hate you!!!! You make my life a living HELL!!!”
 
 WOW!!!
 
So busting his ass to put a roof over her head and designer clothes on her back is the cause for her damnation. I bet my cousin wishes he’d pulled out that night…lol 
 
Believe it or not readers my stepson’s carelessness and the Range Rover Bandit’s disdain for her father doesn’t come from their friends it comes from the home…Yeah I said it! It comes from the home!… These kids have nothing to do but pick up our bad habits!  The unapologetic nature my stepson exhibits clearly comes from the way I interact with his mother. It’s clear the Bandit has seen her father disrespected by another family member and figures its okay to behave that way towards him.  
 
Folks before you scream at the top of your lungs that your teenager is out of control. Pull them in front of a mirror,  take a really deep look, and don’t be surprised when you see ONE of the PARENTS in that reflection.

Gun-Slinger

Posted in Uncategorized on June 6, 2010 by Mr. Slish

ImageI have the mentality of  a cowboy from an old western movie. Ya know the one. He’ll  ride into town,walk into a saloon, and shoot some unsuspecting drunk bastard. Then leave with no explanation. It’s after the sheriff corners him that he confesses 20 years ago the old drunk had raped his momma and killed his poppa right before his eyes.  If  he’d walked into that saloon shouting at the TOP of his lungs ” YOU KILLED MY MAMMY AND MY PAPPY!” he woulda been gunned down before he got the chance to avenge his parents.

Now I know I’m being a little extra with this analogy but my life is sorta like this. I find myself having to make HARD decisions with no explanations damn near everyday! I do it at work, home,  and to my closest friends. It’s insane how many times I gotta pull the trigger on something for the greater good.  My wife thinks I’m selfish, my boss thinks I’m not living up to my potential, but I think they all need to leave me the fuck alone!  I don’t have  time to explain every one of my actions. I only have time to do what’s needed to keep the bottom from falling out because of some bone headed decision they made.

My wife shouts at the TOP of her lungs that she will  divorce me because of this.  She says I lack  sensitivity to her feelings and  I never validate her wishy-washy tendencies. Which happens to be true, but my wife is NOT the ONE married to her! She doesn’t see what I see and what I see is my wife fighting to protect herself  from the demons that have long been exorcised from her life. Shawnla is constantly in defense mode and needs to learn how to deactivate that  side of her brain or else everything she hears will sound like an attack or disrespect.  I call it  being shell-shocked.

Lots of people in the world suffer from this. They’ll make decisions based on emotion and not good common sense. You gotta look at the psychology behind why a person behaves negatively towards you or does something that makes you go Hmmmmm. Going ballistic or taking it personal will not solve anything. Most times if you let the person explain they’ll have a  valid reason as to why they did what they did.  Life’s too short to keep thinking your peers are out to disappoint you or sabotage your movements.  

Since Shawnla  and a few of my closest friends have chosen to live their lives this way Yo boy Slish is  forced to  call on Slasher The Gunslinger.  He’ll kick in the door waving the 44 cutting through all that residue. Meaning he’ll tell YOU to STOP pointing the finger at others and start looking at YOURSELF as to why you don’t get the love and support that you need!
