Er....

Have you ever hung out with Eminem or Dr. Dre?

No, but I was closer to 50 Cent than you are to me now. It was in a London club, and no one in his entourage was pushing me away. What's he spending, thirty grand a day on bodyguards? I could've gotten a knife in that club easily and killed him. I brushed past him on the way to the bathroom. It's good that I'm not a complete psycho who wanted to kill 50 Cent.

― Matos W.K. (M Matos), Monday, 17 May 2004 06:13 (twenty-two years ago)

Why didn't he?

― Gear! (Gear!), Monday, 17 May 2004 06:14 (twenty-two years ago)

oh please, anyone reading that can figure out the headline (to the Blender story the quote above came from; it's also the title of this thread) is less about Skinner thinking he can kill people than his accidental proximity to 50 Cent and the irony of 50 hiring shitloads of bodyguards but still being vulnerable to a stabbing.

― Matos W.K. (M Matos), Monday, 17 May 2004 06:24 (twenty-two years ago)

the irony of it all!

― cinniblount (James Blount), Monday, 17 May 2004 06:28 (twenty-two years ago)

hey how many times do i hafta listen to the new one before i think it's better than opm?

― cinniblount (James Blount), Monday, 17 May 2004 06:29 (twenty-two years ago)

I know what he meant Matos, but I'm tired the answer to the non-question is just sort of rambling and funny to me at 12:28am here.

― Gear! (Gear!), Monday, 17 May 2004 06:30 (twenty-two years ago)

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Monday, 17 May 2004 06:31 (twenty-two years ago)

― Gear! (Gear!), Monday, 17 May 2004 06:35 (twenty-two years ago)

haha I know you know, I'm just trying to be even more pedantic than usual.

― Matos W.K. (M Matos), Monday, 17 May 2004 06:39 (twenty-two years ago)

see I'm so tired I read your email address and for a solid 12 minutes tried to figure out what sort of strange vegetable a "lomato" was and if this Michael Ainge Lomatos company was a reputable source to procure this new food.

― Gear! (Gear!), Monday, 17 May 2004 06:43 (twenty-two years ago)

SHHHH YOU'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO TELL

― Matos W.K. (M Matos), Monday, 17 May 2004 06:46 (twenty-two years ago)

(test research isn't final yet etc.)

― Matos W.K. (M Matos), Monday, 17 May 2004 06:46 (twenty-two years ago)

I won't say a word, MATOS SECRET HORTICULTURIST, not a word

― Gear! (Gear!), Monday, 17 May 2004 06:54 (twenty-two years ago)

I am ruined!

― Matos W.K. (M Matos), Monday, 17 May 2004 07:10 (twenty-two years ago)

Fuck Morrissey, the finest moment on Jonathan Ross was having Fiddy and Felicity Kendal sitting next to each other. She could have rammed a knife into him no problem.

― Dom Passantino (Dom Passantino), Monday, 17 May 2004 08:40 (twenty-two years ago)

apparently they got on so well they are planning to shack up in SUrbiton and grow their own vegetables, much to the disdain of their pompous neighbours

― stevem (blueski), Monday, 17 May 2004 09:01 (twenty-two years ago)

Ja Rule and Penelope Keith?

― Dom Passantino (Dom Passantino), Monday, 17 May 2004 09:02 (twenty-two years ago)

The Hood Life

― stevem (blueski), Monday, 17 May 2004 09:03 (twenty-two years ago)

Kool and Penelope Keith - lovely couple

― Dadaismus (Dada), Monday, 17 May 2004 09:04 (twenty-two years ago)

i thought this was from rolling stone, not blender.

― strongo hulkington (dubplatestyle), Monday, 17 May 2004 09:27 (twenty-two years ago)

(just to, you know, be pedantic.)

― strongo hulkington (dubplatestyle), Monday, 17 May 2004 09:32 (twenty-two years ago)

speaking of pedantism did you ever change that ref to 'A London Sumting Dis' from BBC to C4 btw? it's important, maybe

― stevem (blueski), Monday, 17 May 2004 09:51 (twenty-two years ago)

oh please, i only point out other peoples mistakes.

― strongo hulkington (dubplatestyle), Monday, 17 May 2004 09:58 (twenty-two years ago)

it was gareth's mistake and i just wanted to get one over on him, haha

― stevem (blueski), Monday, 17 May 2004 10:03 (twenty-two years ago)

Coulda woulda shoulda. NEXT time strap up and be prepared, Skinner! And sure, yeah, it was Rolling Stone.

― kittensmile, Monday, 17 May 2004 10:15 (twenty-two years ago)

Skinner was also quoted as saying how '50 Cent doesn't talk about getting shot anymore because that doesn't happen to him now he's made it' or something like that so why he seems to think the guy should be walking around in impregnable armour is the oddness

― stevem (blueski), Monday, 17 May 2004 10:44 (twenty-two years ago)

You're Fid', but my gosh don't you know it?

― noodle vague (noodle vague), Monday, 17 May 2004 17:51 (twenty-two years ago)

I like how nickalicious busted onto this thread all bragging about his dick and no one paid any attention.

― VengaDan Perry (Dan Perry), Monday, 17 May 2004 17:54 (twenty-two years ago)

!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Actually, what I meant was...

hey how many times do i hafta listen to the new one before i think it's better than opm?

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Monday, 17 May 2004 17:59 (twenty-two years ago)

My dick when fully erect is definitely more than seven and a half inches...NOW I BE BRAGGIN OMG LOL WTF.

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Monday, 17 May 2004 17:59 (twenty-two years ago)

And at that distance I coulda stabbed Fiddy with it!

― BRINGING IT ALL bACK AROUND (nickalicious), Monday, 17 May 2004 18:06 (twenty-two years ago)

Anyway, I've noticed lately that Rolling Stone has been doing a lot of really twisting people's actual words around into these controversial sentences, like Angelina Jolie talking about it just being her and that Cambodian kid she adopted and talking about how she doesn't have sex as much anymore and somehow they squeeze "TOMB RAIDER CRAVES MAD C0CK" out of a perfectly innocent statement. It's kinda been bothering me lately; is this a fairly common thing for magazines to do?

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Monday, 17 May 2004 18:08 (twenty-two years ago)

only if their readership is down and their desperately seeking sales

― rentboy (rentboy), Monday, 17 May 2004 18:29 (twenty-two years ago)

I kind of imagine 50's ribs squeezing down on the blade, wrenching it free, and somehow bludgeoning Skinner to death with the handle.

― Ian Christe (Ian Christe), Monday, 17 May 2004 18:37 (twenty-two years ago)

isnt getting stabbed dizzee's thing? Getting shot however...

― bill stevens (bscrubbins), Monday, 17 May 2004 19:04 (twenty-two years ago)

Jane magazine does that shit all the time...pisses me off!

― M@tt He1geson (Matt Helgeson), Tuesday, 18 May 2004 00:18 (twenty-two years ago)

Mikey is a celeb, they are by virtue of their constancy within the public eye less of a threat. Plus fiddy probably likes his music. By saying things l;ike this Mikey is trying to retain the everyman image so central to his music.
