How stupid is the average slapper?

I might be as awkward as Ryan Lochte

There is something inherently stupid about this entire place. Ergo, coming here is evidence that you are stupid.

[close]

You're missing a premise, but the argument goes:

All slap forums are places that are stupid
All places that are stupid are visited by mostly stupid people
All slap forums are visited by mostly stupid people

That way, if you're on slap it's evidence that you're stupid.

My premise is implicit in the first sentence. "This entire place" includes anyone who comes here. Being inherently stupid would also apply to anyone coming here. Its pretty simple. You must be stupid too.

So am I supposed to be super smart or epicly dumb?

Will Easley- Who exactly have I backed down on an argument with? I pretty much argue with people who are wrong.

For the college shit- I went to two UCs. The first one didn't give grades but was located in a redwood forest next to the beach, which made it easier to get into than some other UCs, but smarter to go to because redwood forests and the beach are hella cool. The one I went to for my masters was ranked 3rd in the country for my program when I got in, then became 5th while I was there, and now apparently is ranked 8th. I like to take credit for that.

I never said you backed down, I said you easily get all riled up & start saying some dumb shit that pretty much ruins your own argument. Even if you're "right" you still manage to make yourself look like just as much as an idiot as the person you're arguing with. Im not gonna sit here & list examples, we've all seen it plenty of times.

But yo, weren't you supposed to make me focus by now tho? I coulda swore the Gipper I knew didnt make hollow threats. Like I've said before man you're just losing your touch. Theres new niggas taking over the game now, and you definitely looking like an overweight Shaq in a celtics jersey tryna keep up. All I ask is that you just go out with some dignity man, I aint tryna put you up there with all my other washed up favorites alongside Tracy McGrady & Brian Wenning. Seeing a Gipper rant nowadays is like watching Jordan play for the wizards or something. Don't put me thru that man, just pass the torch & go out on top before its too late.


but yea, anybody asking if they're super smart or epicly dumb is usually leaning more towards the latter. Just saying. I aint ever met a smart nigga who didnt know he was smart, ya know?

I don't agree with you, but I can tell you're smart. 

[annoyedwithskating]

Yeah, going to school doesn't mean you are smart. What we need to do is break down the different types of aptitudes. Also, we have to understand what it means to be intelligent in any sense. It also helps to measure the varying modes of interpretation and expression.  When we've covered those variables, we will assess cognitive states in relation to extrinsic stimulus. Then because of the disconnect between our cognitive minds and our emotional instincts as well as the individual experiences that we all have, we have to keep in mind that even though we are given similar information, we are also given differing information making it impossible to create a genuine contrast. But, we can always throw out information that "smart" people use. So yeah. Science is like cool. My friend works in information technology. Philosophy is for thinking about stuff. Aristotle, Plato and Socrates. Existential. Empiricism. Engineering. High fructose corn syrup. Sluts.

Well, then I must be an idiot. When you say riled up, do you mean like writing 3 paragraphs in response to one sentence about you? How did you manage to get to -305 in under 2000 posts anyway?

come on now, you KNOW when I get riled up. that aint shit. And tryna bring up rep is weak as hell. we all already now Im like the SLAP anti-christ for all you old niggas tryna pretend to be the "cool kids" ona message board, so it really shouldnt be surprising why my "rep" is low. I think the better question is how a 30 year old man averages 7 posts a day on SLAP? #WhereTheyDoThatAt?

Once you get a job that requires sitting in front of a computer for long stretches you'll figure it out. Oh wait, you have that rap career that will definitely result in you becoming a superstar. Lucky you.

Riiiiiight, right. between this & that Puelo thread you gettin real good at this whole shitty excuse thing. Anyways since yall like to bring my rap career more than me nowadays, lemme give yall a lil update. I'm only 3 recording sessions away (all this week)from finishing my mixtape, so I wouldnt be too quick to judge anything until that drops.. Shit aint even get real yet, and you can best believe that Im on some next level shit NOBODY expected. i aint gon hype it up too much tho but sure enough time will tell. I got the upmost confidence in myself as well as the music to back it up. Actually, I got a single ive been eager to put out. i ahve the final mix but its still getting sent mastering, so its outta my hands. I DO however have some final mixes here on my computer. I was planning on giving SLAP a lil exclusive sometime soon just cuz I fucks with the community n whatnot, so if niggas want that NOW it can happen. anyways, I digress. gipper you trash, and you even dumber than i thought if you gon act like i didnt have some kinda back-up plan to supplement my rap aspirations. I do already have one year of college under my belt

[Will Easley]

IM IN THE MOOD FOR SOME NEW TUNES, POST IT DOOD

here's the final mix to my upcoming single. Mastering should make the overall sound a bit more "richer" & dynamic, but yeah, this is the foundation to what its gonna be

http://www.4shared.com/mp3/RovFdSNj/expensive_taste_bbs.html?


A little backstory on this song: Every since I first started I always tried not to rap about money & too much material things because at the time I was a fucking high schooler that was making at the most minimum wage, so to rap about that shit would be cheesy, cliche, & unauthentic. HOWEVER, after crazy foreseen circumstances I've been put into a position that has me living at a much higher level, financially speaking. Like, I really CAN buy whatever I want n shit now. So basically this song is about my experiences making that transition. Its a song that on the surface is about indulgence & enjoying that kind of lifestyle but at the same time there's a humble undertone it that speaks on how people (myself) tend to place so much importance on material things & try so hard to substitute those things as real happiness.

A. Who the fuck is gipper

C. I saw puleo today at the BQE spot who wants details.

you are a bitch emcee, not even  a real rhymer, you are a fake, bitches like you shouldnt be in this game, your not hard. leave the rhyming to real heads that respect the game i know ur fake because of the music you make only a punk ass 17 year old would listen or make the shit you make, and im tellin ya now if you make it, thats disrespecting every real emcee there is . motherfuckers like KOOL G RAP would be disgusted by this fake shit. big ups to the underground headds that kept it real even if there was no chance of making money,, its all about the love

[360 frip]

I don't believe academic achievements are a great measure of intelligence as many of the brightest people I know have failed or scraped by in educational study. There is a saying a heard not long ago that goes something like "Simple minds discuss people, average minds discuss events, great minds discuss ideas IS BA GAY?." I think this might sum up Slap somewhat.

Fixed.

Explain to me how its fake when i just explained the whole purpose for the song? Aint nothin fake about my lyrics or subject matter. The only thing fake is your weak ass internet persona. Nigga didnt you go cry to SLAP about getting burned after fuckin some basic bitch? "THE KOOL MIKE IS MOST WORRIED FAM, SHOULD I GO TO A REGULAR DOCTOR OR A SPECIAL DICK DOCTOR!?" lol we not even in the same league. You should be more focused on getting your GED than making sure you keep real hip hop alive on a skateboarding message board. How is the 17 year old Will Easley gonna have more opportunity to get a decent job than you right now? fuck outta here!

[KOOL MIKE]

i dont care about nothin but hip hop, everything else and everyone else can die,, fuck it all

 take a note out this kids books he is probably younger than you and listen to this shit, it makes me happy that some kids are keepin it alive




i still dont know if i got burnt by that bitch it went away a day later but who knows that sht could just be invisible, i still be fuckin bitches raw dog and not givin two fucks,,,,,,real heads represent all this fake rhymers can go back to thier boy scouts where they came from

[BRIX SKWIKZ]

HERES NEW KANYE WEST

WILL S NOT TOO FAR BEHIND

[KOOL MIKE]

word up to the heads that kept it grimey none of this kanye pop star auto tune shit

[papasmurfsdog]

Its good to know a lot of other Slappers know or are currently shearing the struggles of being a skater and being a full time student. 

Nah. the only one shearing the struggles is camocan.

Damn. Look how much I made you type. Funniest part is your backpedaling from "I KNOW I'm going to be a superstar!!!!!" to "I aint gon hype it up too much tho." No shit you won't. The track you just released is trash. Umad.

gipper yo weak ass trolling is ineffective. Type a lot? when I talk shit I always got a sizeable amount to say, thats nothing new. How IRONIC for the GIPPER to try to call someone out for typing too much. and I never backpeddled, i just wasnt gonna get too much into explaining why my album is about make waves. i got other threads for that shit. and 30 year old school teachers who are much lamer than they think are NOT my target audience, so i could care less what you think. you just saying its trash just to be saying something. But like I said tho man, you gettin weak as fuck on the boards. you really aint got shit to say anymore but the most basic of responses. a very good example of the stupidity of the average SLAP poster. but anyways i know you just tryna play it cool THIS thread, so all ima say is just dont get caught slippin nowhere else. Niggas aint gon threaten to focus me & act like ima just let that shit ride...You put tha target on ya own back!

[Ronald Wilson Reagan]

Just me thinking its bad? Remember when you said you'd focus if people found anything that was actually wrong with your raps, and everybody tore you apart? I know you do, I constantly remind you. You used to say "I KNOW I'm going to be a star." You still saying that? Because if you aren't, you are backpedaling. If you are, you are delusional.
We already went over the idea that I'm dumb. Remember, smart people know they are smart, right?

[Mouth]

Somehow, I knew this thread would come into its own once Gipper made an appearance.

It was only a matter of time.

I just said a couple posts ago I have the utmost confidence in myself & have the music to back it up. even in that last post I said my shit was gonna make waves. How is that backpeddling from anything I've said before? oh that's right it isnt.

and as for that thread that whole shit was just an EFFECTIVE way to get some contructive criticism, even if it was mixed with some flaming just because I provoked the shit. It made me come up with more compelling song concepts & inspired me to incorporate more & more of my life experiences. That song I just posted up above wouldnt have came as good had I not had that feedback before, so obviously it worked. you can call me delusional all you want tho. ima competitive person so it only serves to motivate me. Niggas could call me the most garbage rapper ever and all id do is sit down & write songs for 5 hours straight, so at the end of the day any kind of feedback good or bad is just gonna fuel me. if you were smart you been ignored that shit, but instead of all you middle age clowns always wanna try to bring it up in these random threads as way to insult when you're only giving it more awareness & hyping me up. Keep talkin!

[Ronald Wilson Reagan]

Ah, so I see you've decided to go with delusional.

[Fake Tits]

More power to you Will. I hope it all works out.

But I can't stand the " I love haters" "your hate fuels me" shit anymore.

Every time I read or hear some shit like that it makes me wanna fuck my ears with a chainsaw.

[my pregnant head]

I really fail to see how people "backpedaling" or to put it another way "Reconsidering what they previously said and being sufficiently comfortable in themselves to change their minds without getting super defensive and butthurt"  is such a bad thing.

In my experience smart people don't need to spend their lives beating their chests about how smart they are or MORE IMPORTANTLY don't endlessly blather on about how dumb everyone else is which is in essence all that I've seen the Gipper do since I started lurking here who knows how long ago. I don't know how many times I've seen you respond to people's perfectly reasonable opinions with "you're an idiot" simply because they are different to your own. In all seriousness it kind of bums me out that somebody that is so uncomfortable with reasoned discussion or other peoples takes on things or the very notion of having their mind changed is in the business of educating young people.

Anyway, I'll leave you guys to it. I wonder if you are going to simply call me an idiot for having an opinion or  maybe highlight one tiny portion of what I've said and respond to it with a shitty "zinger" while you choose to ignore everything else or maybe you'll say you "made" me write 3 paragraphs as if that somehow deems you to be the "winner" or maybe you'll say I don't have enough posts to have an opinion. Can't wait to see...the suspense is killing me...

I think that is probably the dumbest part about this place. People don't properly read what you write or respect it is just an opinion or (even) it might be a joke. It is always "You don't know shit" etc.
