Why do obviously uncool white people try to be cool when they get around black people and end up just embarrassing both of them??
Weezy F. Pain (Undisputed Auto-Tune Champion of the World) was on Around The Horn, a fast paced sports talk show on ESPN earlier today. During the show the 2 white panelist kept trying to throw in hip hop phrases and references with their responses to sports questions, failing miserable and creating multiple awkward silent moments. As the segment came to a close (2:10 into the video) in the ultimate showing of utter lameness panelist Woody Paige did what all your drunk white friends do to try to show that they're down and hip, yes people HE STARTED RAPPING, mind you Woody is pushing 63!! Old ass Woody Paige was rapping!! Easily providing the most embarrassing TV moment of the recently blogger coined "post-race era".
But I don't fault Woody Paige at all, busting out in spontaneous raps is a natural Caucasian neuro-response to blackness, especially perceived cool blackness at that. The second your white friends and or coworkers start to perceive you as cool, one of them (the brave one) will inevitably start rapping to you and expressing to you how much they love whatever rapper is hot on Top 40 radio at the time, it might be at a office party or in the car on the way to the club or at a bar in hermosa but it will happen. All you can do is pray the song they pick doesn't have the N-word in it because if it does they will NOT omit the word and that can lead to conversation no one looks forward to. But if you let that N-bomb slide I can guarantee that wont be the last time they drop it in your presence.

Truthfully I am not a Lil Wayne fan. I watched that bullshit ass kissin fest. Firstly I truly believe somebody scripted that for him. Secondly I think Wayne was doin what all dumb ass niggas do when they get around educated white people, do this "Im going to try to make them think Im not like the rest of these dumb niggas" routine. That whole show was a pr dick sucking campaign paid for by Wayne's handlers to celebrate the fact that he won 3 grammys. I would have respected it if they treated him like all the other panelist because truth be told Woody is the best one on that show.
