A SPECIAL SHOUT OUT....

a special shout out goes out to my girl Tamara aka "Tam Tam" for helping me on my veggie path. i've known her since my sophmore year of high school and i think the whole time in high school, we spoke about 2-3 words total to each other, but as soon as i moved back to Texas last year, we've been choppin it up like crazy. she's been giving ya boy insight on how to curve my urges with meat products using meat substitutes since she is a Vegan (something that is WAY too extreme for me. she had nothing to eat but Whataburger Fries for Thanksgiving because non of the houses she went to had "vegan friendly" food. damn) and giving me alot of knowledge on good stuff to eat. shorty just hooked me up with an ill recipe using those chicken patties (told yall they are the truth), pasta, garlic and other shit. so again, Tam Tam, this shout out is for you and you need to get back on ya bloggin', i don't give a damn if you're tryin to get your masters. lol.

HIPPY TESTED, LEX APPROVED....

for those who don't know, haven't read or just don't plain pay attention, i have become a vegetarian. no, its not because of animal rights (fuck the animals) and its not because a female has got me "whipped" and so forth. its just because a nigga wants to try some healthy shit for a change. but anyway, during my journey of "vegetarianism" i've had to go outside the box to find shit to eat. while i was chillin in Target stockin up on Veggie Vittles, i saw some Boca Chick'n patties. and like said in a post below, you can never go wrong with ANY type of chicken. so i copped them and i said "if they're wack, i'll give them to my lil bro, he'll eat anything". so this evening i decided to try one before i went to work. these joints are the fuckin TRUTH!!! i know what some of yall might be thinkin, "Lex, how can something FAKE be the TRUTH"? easy muthafucka. its because these joints are de-fuckin-licious thats how. i threw the patty between some wheat bread, added a lil Miracle Whip and some cheese and the joint was like any other breaded chicken sandwich i have ever eaten. it wasn't dry or anything. so yeah, try something new and give these joints a try. i haven't tried the ones in the picture i posted, just the regular pattys but i also just found out these niggaz make nuggets, so i'll be all over those joints too. so again, if you are thinking about goin the herbivore route and are scared of how the "fake" meat shit is gonna be, this is a safe bet.

SWEET LORD!!!

History has shown that Kobe has had some of the UGLIEST shoes known to man that have carried the honorable Swoosh logo, but these my friend, THESE are the SHIT!! at first i was feeling the Carpe Diem colorway and a joint i made on NikeID, but these joints are full of pedestrian ignorance. i WILL be gettin these joints. i don't know if they drop in the summer or spring but the look comfortable, the colorway is beyond clean and the icy ass baby blue sole.....damn. i'm gonna have to look around for some Polo shirts to go with these joints because i HAVE to match when rockin these. period.

RECESSION CONSESSIONS PT. 2..

Shout out to my Swedish niggaz for inventing these joints.

Honey Buns are like the cornerstone of a hood niggaz diet. affordable, good as hell and easy to find. Honey Buns have been holding down the hood like steel, fam. I remember goin up to Chicago during summer vacations and goin straight to the local hood spot, either Peoples Choice, Willis's, or Tiny Baby's and stockin up on the Hostess joints above because they were like 2 for a buck. and when you're a kid with $5, thats a come up already. and don't let a nigga toss one in the "Nuke Box" (microwave for the dumb people), its a wrap like Cyran, fam. i remember it got to the point one summer that i had a bag of them joints stashed in my nightstand because i never new when a "Bun Attack" would hit a nigga. them shits are good no matter what time of day. Late for school or work and don't have time to eat breakfast, grab an H Beezy. at school or work and only have some change but want to get something in ya gut to hold you down, thats right....honey bun. middle of the night and you don't know what you have a taste for, you already know, grab a honey bun. i bet some of yall readin this shit have eaten at LEAST one today. and some people like myself seem to get real touchy when it comes to who makes the best joints. personally, i only fuck with the frosted Hostess joints and if i'm desperate, i'll mess with the Mrs. Baird's joints. and i know for a fact, that if you bring me some off brand shit, best believe i'm makin that ass go RIGHT back to the store and gettin me the correct Honey Bun and if they don't have my brand, at LEAST bring a nigga back one of those long cinnamon roll joints (a safe and suitable substitute). i remember my dude Keith made a snack run one time back in VA and brought me back some shit that i had to look at him about. most honey buns have that clear frosting and have a "glossy" appearance to them shits. THIS nigga brought me back the "ASHIEST" honey bun i had ever seen, its like the frosting had dried up and shit. i looked at him and said "nigga, YOU eatin that shit. give me my dough back and give me my white cheddar popcorn, fam". but all in all, they are the go to snack when you're low on funds, which ALOT of yall probably are around this time. Honey Buns are like chicken, meaning, if you are somewhere and don't know what to get, you can always be safe when it comes to chicken or a honey bun. like, you may not know if that Bear Claw in the vending machine is gonna be tasty or not, but you know its guaranteed with the Honey Bun.

WARNING.....

Brian, you my dude. i used to always call you and "Sir Lucas" up all the time when we had the latest AF1's in stock so that you all had first dibs and all. but you might REALLY want to think again about rockin that AKA pink and green fam. people might think you're down with these niggettes. the HOES might think its cute, but these individuals might think its even CUTER. just a warning......

RECOMMENDED READING PT. 2

After years of trying to find this book, i was at Half Price Book Store the other day and finally found this joint. i had started reading it about 4 years ago, but the book was an old ass paperback and had fallen apart in my luggage when i was on my way to Miami so i wasn't able to finish it. this is recommened reading to the fullest. people have to understand that you can't blame everything on rap, tv and videogames. this guy was born in the 40's or 50's, when none of that stuff was even a factor. dude was a fool for NO damn reason as a youngster other than the fact that it was fun and he was bored. people always try to rationalize shit like "ooh, this child is deprived of a father figure". dude has a mother AND father that were constantly on his ass about messin up. or they'll be like "he needs medication". in the words of Chris Rock, what happened to just plain CRAZY?! dude was just bad. PERIOD. and for him to know at that young of an age that he was wild as hell is even scarier. and the fact that this book has been constantly put on the "Banned List" by schools and stuff pisses me off. you would rather kids read about some nigga at a school for witches that isn't true, thus leaving kids in a mystical fog of ignorance and denial, than to put a book that probably ALOT of them can relate too just because of language and subject matter even though its TRUE shit? come on people. the man made it out of the system, went to Howard University and then went to Stanford to learn law before stopping to become a full time lecturer. but somehow, Harry Potter is more important in black communities. nigga please. if you can find this book, pick it up, give it a read and if you can, give it to a young dude. we are quick to share music files, share some knowledge with somebody. you can go to court for downloading music, but you can't be sued for gaining knowledge and insight and it can't be erased from your harddrive either. free jewels from ya boy.
