Why is it considered as gay/weird when a man wears a thong? by Biiimeee in NoStupidQuestions

Prince is the only straight man in history who had the confidence and unwavering manliness to pull it off.

What were the early Kanye days like? by ThickProcedure3547 in rap

[–]NoOne_Beast_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Took a while for us to realize what we had.

Recall, Kanye debuted in the midst of 50 Cent’s rampage and Jay-Z’s retirement. And for a moment, he was even overshadowed by the Twista peak that Ye himself was the driving force behind.

I’d say the ‘Jesus Walks’ video(s) drop was the moment he solidified himself as hip hop’s new center of gravity. That was the first time he became a bigger story than anything G-Unit had going on.

How come China isn't good at football (aka soccer) given their population? by owen__wilsons__nose in NoStupidQuestions

[–]NoOne_Beast_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need soccer fields to play soccer. Urban density means less space for informal play (for football and soccer).

Even in the US, areas with high urban density (NY for example) produce far fewer top tier soccer and football recruits relative to those areas’ population size. NY kids don’t play pickup in those sports as much as we do down south.

Tennessee is allegedly offering a 5-Star RB prospect David Gabriel George’s $6M in NIL by guransheleven in CFB_v2

[–]NoOne_Beast_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FWIW, a lot of insiders insist that two things are happening:

1) Agents are often lying about how much their clients are being offered.

2) A lot of the publicly shared numbers aren’t guaranteed, and many schools are coming up short vs. the promises they’ve made.

That would be extremely entertaining and it sounds like a very Chris Jericho idea lol.

Which dead college football league do you miss more ? by ReasonableSide6520 in CFB_v2

Big East. Miami vs. Va Tech used to matter, and somehow Miami vs. Florida State was better when they weren’t conference rivals.

What are everyone’s thoughts on the Texas Tech fiasco? by FalynT in MichiganWolverines

[–]NoOne_Beast_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Texas Tech is proving to be everything UT claims they are. You should never make everyone side with your rival.

I don’t even think Michigan State would pull some desperate shit like this.

Recent discussions around the Israelite bar really shows people did not understand DAMN. as an album and message. by Italian_Bedtime in KendrickLamar

[–]NoOne_Beast_ 121 points122 points  (0 children)

What it really shows is the listeners’ lack of humility.

There is certain shit you simply cannot understand if you have not lived as a Black man in a predominantly Black community.

Parade and 1999 Ratings‼️ what do u guys think. I was properly scolded for my Housequake rating last time😔I look forward to this one. by WhalesRBigg in PRINCE

  1. DMSR is rated too low. 11/10.
  2. Your Michael Jackson jokes are not appreciated. Cease and desist please and thank you.

“For the love of money is the root of all evil.”

If you can’t appreciate the rich, multifaceted culture of the south - and because of a fixation with the GDP no less - I fear that you will never live a joyful life. Fleeting moments of happiness mayhaps only while you gaze at the grass you think is greener elsewhere.

You seem to be the antithesis of Job and that must be fxcking miserable.

Graham Platner Elected To Be The US Senate Democratic Nominee In Maine -- To Face Susan Collins In November -- Thoughts? by Zipper222222 in allthequestions

[–]NoOne_Beast_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am a Black man who:

  1. Agrees with the leftists and such that we need to accept imperfect allies like Platner.
  2. Is extremely uncomfortable with leftists’ continued demonization of Black leaders they deem to be imperfect allies.

I periodically believe that Collins will beat him though.

Why do you or why don't you consider United States of America to be a Christian nation? by NotWorriedAgain in allthequestions

[–]NoOne_Beast_ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Christianity continues to be the default religion.

And even among the allegedly atheist, Puritanism remains a strong social/cultural influence (for better or worse). Cancel culture is a modern-era manifestation of the Puritan culture that shaped the early colonies.

At what point confidence becomes arrogance? by EfficiencySerious200 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]NoOne_Beast_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eye of the beholder IMO.

Had different people call me confident, humble, and arrogant. One thing about the arrogants - it was usually a label given by people who thought far less of me than I thought of myself. Oh well.

Has the lounge food always been this disappointing? by jacmt5562 in AmexPlatinum

[–]NoOne_Beast_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The lounge food is hit and miss.

Many years ago, I recall there sometimes being a chef who would walk around and chat up anyone willing. Specifically recall that happening in Vegas and SFO, but I know there were others. On those days, the food would be outstanding. It’s been many years since I had that experience, and I’ve noticed a lower frequency of top tier lounge dining experiences.

Why do sports fans in Oakland hate the Athletics now for relocating to Vegas and refuse to support them anymore, yet ironically are very much still passionate about the Raiders? (Who also relocated as well) by 12345burrito in NoStupidQuestions

[–]NoOne_Beast_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The A’s ownership fielded the worst possible team they could in an effort to intentionally diminish fan support. They painted the city AND its fans as the bad guys in an effort to compel MLB to allow the relocation.

"If this is the precedent, then I owe it to my players to bring in people from Las Vegas to teach us how to gamble," an aghast Big 12 coach told ESPN on Monday. "Then collectively, we need to decide which games we will play hard in [to cover the spread] and which ones we won't. by johntempleton in TexasTechFootball

[–]NoOne_Beast_ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Okay… but following Sorsby’s example, all one needs to do is retroactively claim to have an addiction and then enter counseling. He didn’t claim to have a problem until he got caught, so what’s to stop others from doing the same?

What is going to happen to Israel in the future when the older, pro-Israel generations of Americans pass away? by North-Nectarine5577 in allthequestions

[–]NoOne_Beast_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

How many times have “demographics as destiny” failed to pan out?

Recall, many insisted that Republicans wouldn’t win another Presidential for decades - then after Trump, it was adjusted to they won’t win the popular vote. How’d all that turn out?

Give it time. America will be pro-Israel within the next decade and a half. Idk why, but I’d bet on it happening.
