i dont hate lil wayne because of his attitude or how he dresses, those are things i could care less.
he sucks at rapping, i just don't understand how you can possibly listen to his crap.

listening to him = deciphering some code, he's just THAT bad, IMO

So you are saying the sole reason you labeled him a "faggot" was because you were unable to appreciate the way he raps?
IMO you shouldn't hold your opinions any higher than say... the millions who do love the way he raps. music is subjective and there are many styles of "rapping". I'm just saying it annoys me when you insult him and state your opinion on a subjective matter like its an objective fact.

Because it just sounds dumb to me, especially given that it was a shallow, ignorant culture that created the term "baller" in the first place. It just makes TL sound like a bunch of kiddies worshipping lil wayne and gangster style.

But if it doesn't to the rest of you, then fine.

whoever uses the word "baller" to refer to ball players that made it out of the streets to make millions as a pro ball player, shame on you! You are all lamers!

a "baller" is clearly someone who is an ignorant, hedonistic dumbass who has no real talents.

+ Show Spoiler [the true meaning of christmas] +
Words can develop different meanings, so get used to it. Considering this is a slang term, I don't see what you're complaining about. Just make up a new word and make everyone conform to it. If you can't beat 'em, join 'em!

look
different 'cultures' are always gonna use slang words in a different way, with different meaning and value

so until this word is actually defined in the dictonary with a picture of lil wayne stop being a little crybaby over the way some people on the internet use a word

Go listen to some Mos Def, Nas, Immortal Technique, then you can say what real rap is about. Lil wayne is a faggot and that's all he is ever going to be. His main crowd of listeners are little annoying pricks that swear they're thug life.

So? I've listened to all of the above mentioned artists and all have something i like. Quit talking about taste in music like its objective.

so because "it just sounds dumb to you" and clashes with your completely subjective view on how that word should be used, the entire forum should stop doing it

you should probably just get over it

Baller- A thug that has "made it" to the big time. Originally refered ball players that made it out of the streets to make millions as a pro ball player, but now is used to describe any thug that is living large.

[first definition on www.urbandictionary.com]

I guess when we call Nony a baller, he is someone who made it in the big time [pro starcraft scene] as oppose to the many foreigners who didn't quite make it.

Fine, I was merely stating my opinion and if nobody else feels this way, then I really have no say in the matter.
