Thug Life

Real, true life conversation between two people on my Facebook (y'all, I can't make this shit up):

I hope you can't tell what a novice I am at editing FB screenshots. Of course you can't, because I'm a pro!

Because I had to keep random dude's anonymity, you can't see that homeboy is white. 

All I could say is, "What the eff, boy?! You ain't Tupac!" And I don't even talk like that. But those were my first thoughts. I'm just trying to keep it real.

Sadly, I can say with almost certainty that homeboy doesn't even listen to Tupac. If he doesn't listen to Tupac, he most definitely doesn't know Tupac started the "Thug Life" tattoos. But, to be fair, I bet Homeboy knows how to solve our world's biggest problems like famine and disease is an all around idiot who doesn't know much of anything. Although I have to giggle at the thought that Homeboy might also get Pac's Nefertiti tattoo. There's nothing like having a fertility goddess on your chest to woo the ladies.

Did you read that boys? There's nothing like having a fertility goddess on your chest to woo the ladies.

How would Tupac feel about white kids from the suburbs getting "Thug Life" tattoos? Though I can't say for certain, Pac was a pretty laid-back guy. I think he would sing them a song and tenderly touch their cheeks and tell them it's gonna be alright. And then in my fantasies, he'd slap them across the face and tell them to grow the eff up.

This is obvs the song he'd sing.

Oh, and in interest of full disclosure, I am not an avid Tupac fan. I hope you weren't getting your hopes up that a (kind of) prim and proper white girl from the South is a Pac fan. I like him, but I can't confess to being a closet fan. I listen to Adele and Justin Bieber, not hardcore rap. That's just the way it is.
