Why is being a lame or square considered an insult?

It’s something in my black DNA that makes me hate a corny man.

Look at Donald Glover or any other BLERD

I hate him for being corny …

but at the same time identify with him a lot

:snoop:

It’s a paradox …
If Donald is corny then who’s not corny?

Ray J?

Future?

Durk?

I remember the shift and change when it came to black “masculinity”. Michael Jordan at one point was the apotheosis of it: a tall athlete, well spoken, married, no tattoos, respectable and as far as we knew, no drama. His only vice that we heard of was his gambling.

Then comes Tupac with his Thug Life persona. He dies then DMX takes his place. And once Allen Iverson arrived in the NBA with his braids and tattoos, it became a wrap.

I’m not blaming those individuals solely for the shift in the “culture” but they definitely contributed towards it. Simply being an athlete isn’t enough… just look at clowns like Ja Moron and his antics and yet another NBA player got clowned for being frugal with his money. :francis:

I find it funny to hear blacks in their 30s,40, and even 50s still saying that shyt..

But black people are so entrenched in movies and tv and rap they think as a black man u have fit those stereotypes they see and hear

How you hate squares and nerds when you HAVE TO go to accountants to do your taxes yearly as well go to the doctor for health check ups? :dahell:

Swear some people are mentally teenagers that have a bit more money.

Good timeline. Basically, the Eazy E "real nikka" paradigm doomed a lot of black folk.
