Lyrics:
Kanye West - I Wonder
Find your dreams come true
And I wonder if you know
What it means, what it means
[chorus]
And I wonder if you know
What it means, what it means
And I wonder if you know
What it means to find your dreams
I've been waiting on this my whole life
These dreams be waking me up at night
You say I think I'm never wrong
You know what, maybe you're right, aight
[chorus]
You say he get on your fucking nerves
You hope that he get what he deserves, word
Do you even remember what the issue is
You just trying to find where the tissue is
You can still be who you wish you is
It ain't happen yet
And that's what the intuition is
When you hop back in the car
Drive back to the crib
Run back to their arms
The smokescreens
The chokes and the screams
You ever wonder what it all really mean
[chorus]
And I'm back on my grind
A psychic read my lifeline
Told me in my lifetime
My name would help light up the Chicago skyline
And that's what I'm
Seven o'clock, that's primetime
Heaven'll watch, God calling from the hot lines
Why he keep giving me hot lines
I'm a star, how could I not shine
How many ladies in the house
How many ladies in the house without a spouse
Something in your blouse got me feeling so aroused
What you about
On that independent shit
Trade it all for a husband and some kids
You ever wonder what it all really mean
You ever wonder if you'll find your dreams

i interrupt my current studying with the following announcement:
toronto raptors fans = toronto maple leafs fans = most sports fans = boneheaded = illogical
so i was scanning through some comments (i dunno why opinions infuriate me like they do.. maybe cause i cant stand stupidness), and someone claimed that al horford should be suspended for as long as tj ford is out.. for those who dunno, al horford fouled tj ford, and he left on a stretcher because of chronic spinal injuries..
there have been arguments on other sports injuries where the person who injures them should be out for as long as the person is injured..
NOW...
are all ppl this stupid and illogical?
if a person with a majorly sprained ankle plays bball, and i step on his foot by accident, causing him to injure his ankle more, is this my fault? should i be punished? if this is the last straw and it causes his ligaments to be torn, should i sit out for as long as it takes his ligaments to heal?
if i cause a coworker to cry, should i take stop work for half an hour if the crybaby coworker cries for half an hour straight? bloody hell
al horford shouldnt be suspended. accidents somehow become suspensions because of stupidity and ridiculous sensitivity
he wouldnt even be suspended if that person wasnt tj ford and he didnt have spinal cord injuries
it was a reactive move by the nba to show that it 'cares' and to please the stupid whiners out there (this means you raptors fans). if i was al horford, i'd be furious and want to sue.
play the ball as it lies. play at your own risk. we have to make double standards now? one for the regular players, and another for the ppl who play with injuries?
if person A has sex with person B and A KNOWS B has HIV, does B get fined/suspended/jailed/penalized/punished for giving HIV to A? A knows the risk going in.
i guess there's the real world and the sports world
i love sports. i hate sports fans.
the real problem beneath this all is what ppl will do to please others and to avoid criticism
can ppl not handle criticism? suck it up. stand up for what you believe in. dont give in and conform just to look better in ppl's eyes.
problems of this world:
(1) ppl are retards (1.1) ppl are too politically correct (1.2) ppl are too sensitive
we now return to regularly scheduled programming/studying
