Down being a relative term of course. The fact of the matter is; Ain't no love in the heart of the city. In an area so densely populated with angry blacks and Hispanics, many of whom are broke on top of all else, there is bound to be a fight popping off every 10 seconds. It's gotten much better since the Rodney King, L.A. riot days, but we're not so far removed that it won't happen again. Law-enforcement doesn't stop violence, people do. If it weren't for the things in our society that bring us joy or a release from the stress of everyday life, everybody would be one mean look away from bussing a cap in someone's ass.
1. Weed - Kat Williams put it best; The key ingredient in weed is something called "f*ck it". You can't pay your rent on time? F*ck it, you still haven't used that tent you bought last summer. Child support due? F*ck it, maybe your baby mama will take the cash and finally fix that busted ass weave of hers. Smoking makes otherwise serious situations infinitely less serious. Only problem is it wears off after a few hours. Oh, and the fact that it's an illegal substance.
2. Sports - Has the ability to tame the souls of angry black men in multiple ways. Playing it provides a much needed physical release. Where else but football or basketball can you knock someone on their ass without them pressing charges? The benefits of watching sports is two-fold, it offers a 2 and 1/2 hour distraction from your wife, kids, boss, bills, and anything else that may be wearing on your brain. Being a fan of a team also allows you to paint your face colors and scream obscenities to strangers. The later of which I enjoy thoroughly. Lets just hope. The NFL and NBA get their labor situations straight or all hell is gonna break loose.
3. The Club - There is a reason millions of people flock to the city every Friday and Saturday. The club is like sensory overload to the brain; Flashing lights, loud music and half naked women dancing, the liquor is what brings it all together though. The liquor allows you to get lost in everything else that comes with the club. Where you wake up though is completely on you.
4. Call of Duty - I suppose any video game would apply in this situation. However I chose call of duty 1. because it's my favorite game and 2. Its the highest selling game ever. What better way to relieve the stress of the day than buy shooting a few communists. The violent nature of the game makes it a perfect release. It's also pretty fun to imagine taking out your boss with a sniper rifle. All of that plus the fact that you can play with real people online, killing them while yelling explicative's about their mothers. What's more fun than that?
5. Hoes - Look down upon them if you want, hoes make the world go round. The fact of the matter is; Sex it the best stress reliever known to man. I could give you the scientific song and dance about endorphins but I'm confident that if you're reading this you've had sex before. So why hoes specifically? Its simple, relationships take a great deal of time and effort and can actually be pretty stressful themselves. Hoes eliminate the commitment, trust and all of those scary words from the situation and take it right down to getting busy. Hoes also have lower standards than most women, which means that ugly dude with the funny odor can probably still get it in. Ugly, smelly dudes need love too.
