NOTE: The ones I highlighted in bold happened an average of two and a half miles from where I'm sitting right now. Fuckin' pumped to be here. Anyone have any riot gear they're not using? Need an outfit for work tomorrow.
Well easy to say I'm happy as a pig in shit I wasn't around this weekend. Pretty excited all I did was spend $1,200 more than I should have in Vegas instead of taking a stray to the dome piece.
Real quick - What is happening righhhht here:
Anyone know? That's got to be taking advantage of the opportunity. He's stealing that baby carriage even if it means getting shot. Bullets flying everywhere, guy focuses up and sees an empty baby carriage and just takes it. Who's going to notice in such chaos? Great move. I would've went with something like a car, but I also ain't going home to my baby mama empty handed with something she wants.
Who goes to these parades anymore anyway? In the last 10 years I can't think of one parade in the city that hasn't resulted in someone getting straight yoked up. These things are like an excuse to shoot people. I don't know what it is - I can't speak for the guys emptying clips because I'm too much of a pussy to attend one of these things, so if anyone knows feel free to let me in on the secret. What goes on at these things that makes people go back for more? Literally risking their lives to be at the parade, there's got to be some serious fuckin' going on or something. Like is it automatic sex as soon as you get to the parade route? Do people who attend the parade get an immediate wad of cash and then their choice of sexual partners with no repercussions in real life? Then after all that is done they get 3 wishes granted by their own personal genies? Seriously is that even enough to attend knowing there's a 50/50 shot you end up critical in Kings County Hospital?
I think I'm going next year to find out what all the fuss is about.
