STEREOTYPES AREN'T RACIST
I posted those videos because I've noticed people have a very large misconception of what Hollywood is.
Tourists from all over the world come here, to ride around in roofless vans, gaze at cement stars and get hustled.
Parents bring their children... always been unsure why.
I mean, Hollywood most likely has less crime now than it has had for the past 30 years.
Which is like saying a hungry cobra with one broken fang isn't dangerous.
I've witnessed/experienced a lot of crazy shit since moving here.
And have come to the realization that the longer I stay the more deaths I'll be connected with.
The third video posted, the shooting of cars on Sunset and Vine, I used to smoke weed with that dude's lady.
We both frequented the Liberty Bell Temple (a medical marijuana shop).
She was petite and attractive, rare qualities for a hollywood pothead.
The first time we met she didn't talk much.
Something rolled underneath a couch and she bent over to pick it up.
But she didn't just bend over.
She went prone on the floor, reached under the couch to grab the lost paraphernalia, then inched backwards while raising her ass in the air and held a yoga-esque pose for 5 seconds.
Putting it out there, "take me where I am," for anyone stupid enough to mount.
The girl was always complaining about her boyfriend too; how the snow was ruining him, his infidelities.
So, for the most part, I avoided talking with her.
A few months later I heard the news: he lost it at the tail of a month long cocaine bender after she quit the relationship.
He went out in the street, with a gun, and tried to take as many lives as he could.
Fortuitously he was a bad shot.
And only killed one person: a music producer.
(good job)
The humorous/shameful part of the story, the one the news didn't comment on, is that the Hollywood PD station is about 1.5 blocks down Vine; walking distance.
Those pigs must have been terrified.
They just let him shoot at people for a while.
Sitting in their small castle, grateful for unearned safety.
Waiting for his ammunition to deplete.
Then shooting him down.
Dead.

YOUNG MEN AGGRESSIVELY DRIVING TRUCKS TO OVERCOMPENSATE FOR THEIR MOMMY ISSUES/LACK OF SEX

I DON'T WANT TO FUCK BUT DO WANT TO WATCH YOU FROM A DISTANCE
Mark "Super Samoan" Hunt turned 39 yesterday. I've been following him for a while, like 10 plus years, and he's always been a favorite to watch.
Hunt isn't the most skilled fighter, he actually has lost several times during his career in mma and kickboxing. Out of 59 fights, 20 have ended in defeat. That's losing 1 out of 3 matches.
He's also not a cartoon character of muscle. Contrary to popular aesthetic, his body type is similar to someone's beer swilling dad.
What the guy does have can't be taught: heart, chin and power. Mark will absorb a large amount of punishment to get close enough to missile a thick-boned fist at an opponent's head.
His KO's aren't just knockouts, they're destructive ballets.
Here's a K-1 fight against Jerome LaBaner. The french roided dude was considered a huge favorite to win, especially since he had already beat Hunt the previous year.
Galagher can't smash watermelon like that, holmes.
Even when the Super Samoan loses, he's entertaining. Nothing held back, nothing safe, just balls out until he breaks.
Here's an epic K-1 fight against another islander, Ray Sefo:
Mark moved to the Pride organization to try MMA in 2002.
At the time Wanderlai Silva was on a 4-year win streak. He dominated everyone until he fought the Super Samoan. It was a war which went to decision, Hunt walking away with the victory. The most remarkable strike in the fight was an atomic slam (jumping on a prone opponent with your ass). No shit.
Later Mark went on a severe losing streak. Not because he was over trained or doing recreational drugs, but because people realized striking with the guy is retarded and exposed his massive weakness: grappling.
UFC bought Pride in 2009 and dismantled the japanese organization. They had to make a decision to father fighters in or pay off their contracts.
UFC President, Dana White, looked at Hunt's record and didn't think he was UFC material, meaning his perceived skill wasn't enough to shed blood under their elite name.
The UFC heavyweight division is flat, especially when compared to the robust talent of the lesser weight classes. Because of this Mark was allowed to finish out his contract as a stepping stone.
Dana openly shit talked Hunt during press conferences.
The first UFC fight ended in a loss from a submission, which inspired some much needed work on wrestling.
Since that initial loss Mark has put to sleep all of the named fighters he's been matched against, the last of which was Stefan Struve, a young skyscraper of a man who was considered to be the new reaper of the division.
The two met in Japan last month and the fight went like a typical Mark Hunt melee: punches, then carnage.
Struve got Hunt on the ground twice but didn't do much damage. The work put in to patch the grappling weakness was evident.
Hunt absorbed a lot of damage, a shitton I would say, to get close enough on the inside to use his reach. Struve's head took powerful blow after powerful blow.
It was quite amazing.
Both men became fatigued but wouldn't relent. Mark hurt Stefan several times but the kid kept his feet underneath him.
Mark's face took an incredulous look, like you could tell he was thinking "how the fuck do I put this shithead down?", then he fired an overhand left-right combo in the third.
The fists landed squarely on Stefan's jaw and sent a broken tooth sailing off towards oblivion. It was like watching a grizzly bear open a pudding cup after a long period of starvation. Oh yeah, he also broke the Struve's jaw.
The ref didn't stop the fight after Struve went down; Mark just walked away confident his opponent had wilted.
I think fighting is one of the last forms of honesty in the 21st century. All the half-truths, watered down ideology and passive-aggression of our culture don't exist during a fight; because they can't--a person with heart will be exposed.

I HEARD A WHITE WOMAN BOAST "I'M NOT USED TO PAYING FOR THINGS." AND MADE A SILENT WISH FOR HER FACE TO BE MUTILATED
In the eighties the phrase "show me your tits" was en vogue.
No joke, it was totally okay for men to yell nudity demands at a female pedestrian.
Some women liked the attention, I think.
But those sorts always do.

I have a reocurring imagination of shaving off my facial\head hair, then sleeping in a gutter for eternity or until someone runs my body over with the wheels of a car.
