The second batch of Motivational Inspiration

Not a whole lot going on lately, in terms of the blog; I'm sure most of us are busy with the relentless onslaught of assignments. I've sure got plenty to do, and more than just schoolwork.

Needless to say, I feel it's important to make an effort to post occasionally... A little activity goes a long way, and there's nothing like a couple funny images to emphasis that point:

Did you know?

- The amount of people who choke to death each year is on average about 100 people.
- The only author to have a book in every Dewey decimal category is Isaac Asimov.

- An atheist convention is gathering together this weekend in Madison for a day of breakfast without prayer and to give out awards. As the news reporter said, " God bless them!"

Motivational Images: Vol. 1

Hip-hop/Rap Lyrics.

Rap lyrics, are terrible.
They're all about money, and 'hoes' and sex.
And they use positively horrendous grammar.

So when I'm extremly bored, I take rap lyrics and revise them so they are formal and proper and such.

An example:
From Ludacris' 'Get Back.'
The original Lyrics are "Get back, get back, you don't know me like that."
My lyrics? "Please keep your distance, please keep your distance, you are not acquainted with me in an intimate manner."

From Will.I.Am's 'Got It From My Mama'
Original: "Baby, where'd you get your body from?" and "I got it from my mama"
Revised: "Young female member of the human race whom I am attracted to, from what specific intersection of latitudinal and longitudinal coordinates did you attain that physical shape consisting of flesh, blood and bones?" and "I have acquired it from the woman who gave birth to me."


I will add more at another time, for now, enjoy this installment of Formal Rap Lyrics.
