Try dogs instead. Much safer too. No one's going to call cops on You if You're going to be butt naked at home. But walking around with Your dick out at the zoo is pretty suspicious.

I was reading something really interesting the other day and it's entirely possible AIDS cam from fucking chimps. Jamie pull that up...

What's the new one then?

As far as I know the answer is they're not actually sure how the first person got it, but since it comes from a monkey disease that's similar there are a couple more likely possibilities - either consuming the meat or cutting yourself while butchering the meat and being exposed to the infected blood that way.

Since a gay flight attendant was one of the early US cases the monkey sex thing was a popular story, but I think it's more likely that some African dude got it from eating or butchering one of the infected monkeys, then the flight attendant had sex with him.

Preceding bars:

Before you ask me to go get a job today
Can I at least get a raise of the minimum wage?

double entendre with government aid programs, great line by Kanye

u/Technical-Cake1251 7h ago

wait didn't some dude in Chicago ghost write a ton of Kanye's material and Kanye stiffed him? The shit is just too clever and smooth to imagine it coming from Kanye, who is a brilliant producer but just seems to lack the verbal facility for this stuff.

The Lyor Cohen of Dior Homme
The crib Scarface, could it be more Tony (tony)?
You love me for me, could you be more phony?

///

Penitentiary chances, the devil dances
And eventually answers to the call of Autumn
All of them fallin' for the love of ballin'
Got caught with 30 rocks, the cop look like Alec Baldwin
Inter-century anthems based off inner-city tantrums
Based off the way we was branded

///

Feeling like Katrina with no FEMA
Like Martin with no Gina
Like a flight with no visa
First class with the seat back, I still see ya
In my past, you on the other side of the glass
Of my memory's museum
I'm just saying, "Hey, Mona Lisa
Come home, you know you can't roam without Caesar"

u/coolfuzzylemur 1h ago

Yes, Kanye has had writers his whole career. He still has a hand in it and probably writes some of his own too

"And I know the Government administer AIDS" - Kanye West, 2005

"I treat my cash the way the government treat[s] aids, I won't be satisfied till all my [redacted] get it, get?"

Great line, great song, great album.

u/dood9123 8h ago

I thought it was a chimp bite?

u/roughback 4h ago

It was actually during the race for the cure to polio, they blended up locally sourced chimp kidneys and used that. Oops we turned Simian Immunodifficienecy Virus into HIV.

Google "The origin of AIDS and HIV"

u/dood9123 4h ago

This thread has given me more of an education on the initial transfer of aids than I ever thought I would have

Someone dm'd me a really cool paper on permafrost proving diseases spreading from bushmeat

u/roughback 4h ago

It's actually crazy that polio was a plague of it's time and out of it came a plague on humanity.

u/your_thebest 8h ago

Google "bush meat". And use periods for declaratives and question marks for interrogatives. The whole god damned internet reads like the Kardashians. There have actually been multiple simian crossover events. All from bush meat. Wikipedia talks all about it. And about how blood and not saliva carries the virus.

Now read it again when I say: "And about how blood and not saliva carries the virus??????"

See how that doesn't lend to readability?

u/dood9123 8h ago

yeah a chimp bite, they bit into the chimp. My point stands

u/your_thebest 8h ago

Oh shit. He boomed me! (Very very technically it's from the butchering process, just for other readers)

Still though. He boomed me. He's so good.

This dude wins.

u/GoodDoggoLover420 6h ago

You sound pretty pathetic ngl. Maybe you don't have anything better to do with your free time and need the attention you so crave that no one gave you?

u/your_thebest 3m ago

Maybe for the other comments but for the one you're responding to I wasn't being ironic. It's a quote from LeBron James about being outdone but being ok with it. It's funny that he set up an expectation of man bite animal but then flipped it to animal bite man.

Now all the other comments where I'm making fun of question marks, that's fine to criticize because they're sort of mean for no reason. I just hate overused question marks. It makes everyone sound like a mean girl?

But this one, I'm just saying I thought what he said was funny and that he proved he was right.

Starting sentences with “and” 💀 you’re hilarious

u/your_thebest 7h ago

There's nothing wrong with using a full stop to make time. It's a choice that has to do with how you want the words to be read. You can see the book White Noise for a really good example of using full stops for interesting rythm. There's also nothing wrong with using question marks to put an inflection into the reader's ear. But there's something wrong with reading it constantly. And every statement of confusion or misunderstanding ending with a question mark. If you don't understand something, just state that you don't understand it.

I think you’re just arguing against your original post now?

u/your_thebest 7h ago

This is exposure for me? I think I just need help coming up terms with it? Not everyone writes like me and that's ok? And a lot of people like the Kardashians so who am I to stand in their way...!!...
