Gay Boyfriend Prompt

“You’re breaking up with me?” She asked with a broken heart.
“What part of ‘should see other people’ can’t you comprehend, Marissa?”
She hung up the phone, seething with rage and pain. She threw the phone onto her bed and cried; what wasn’t she doing correctly? The phone rang, and she ignored it. Again and again the anonymous caller tried to reach her. After the fifth time, she picked it up.
“Go awaaaayyy Chad-”
“Hi- ooh, so that’s why you didn’t pick up the first, like, billion times I called.” Marissa felt her spirits rising, for it was Max, her best friend.
“O-my-God Max.” she said with relief.
“So tell me, what did he do this time.”
“Well he cheated on me again-”
“-again-”
“And- yeah, again! Anyways, I called him and was like ‘so who’s Summer’ and he was like ‘if you’re gonna be like that, we should see other people,’ so then I was like-”
“Sweetheart, don’t worry about him, because I called you with fabulous news.”
“Oh?” Marissa was already smiling.
“You. Me. Annnnnnd the new Spring line at the mall.”
“Jesus, Maxxi, you’re just too cool!”
“I know~” he said with a happy tune.
“See you there, faggot-” She hung up as Max laughed.
Max was openly gay, and Marissa knew it; it bothered her none.

Max had taken Marissa to their favourite stores at the Megaplux Mall. While they drank their smoothes, Max continued to listen to Marissa’s post-breakup rant.
“So that’s, like, the 8th boyfriend to cheat on me and the break up with me. Ew, they gave me strawberry.”
“I got blueberry, wanna trade?”
“Psh, do I?”
They swapped drinks.
“I’ve been telling you for, like, a billion years that YOU need to break up with THEM when THEY cheat on YOU, have I not?”
“Nice emphasis.” She giggled.
“Yeah, well, I try.” Marissa gave a deep sigh.
“I just… I dunno, I feel like I’m the issue.”
“Oh shut up~ You are SO not the issue.”
“Really? You think?”
“Yes, I think often, but I’m telling you that I think that you need to break up with them.” Marissa laughed again. “What?”
“I dunno, you always make me laugh.”
“Wellll, what can I say?”
“That you’re freaking awesome?”
“That could work.” Marissa watched a couple walk by.
“Be strong, girlfriend, you’ll find a worthy male sometime.” She smiled to herself.
“Psh, you should just date me.”
“I’m gay, honey.”
“Yeah, you’re hot for studs, but I mean we should totally go out.” Of course, she was kidding, and Max knew it.
“Psh I ain’t holding your lady-hands. I need a man!”
“I’m a wo-man!”
“Woah man~ Ok, ok, we should go to prom together.”
“What about Chase?”
“He can go with my sister.”
“Isn’t your sister, like, 20?”
“Yup. C’mon, let’s go egg Chad’s house.”
“You’re so totally my favourite fag.”

Song Prompt Lyrics

Gay Boyfriend by The Hazards

1...2... Ready, Go....
I'm tired of boys who make me cry
They cheat on me and they tell me lies
The one I love will never stray
When he sees other girls he looks away
And if he never kisses me well thats alright
Coz we can just cuddle all night

(Chorus)

Gay Boyfriend, Gay Boyfriend
I dont really care that you are queer
Gay Boyfriend, Gay Boyfriend
I never feel lonely when you are near

It'll be a great romance We'll go shopping and buy some pants
You don't care how big my ass is Just how fabulous my dress is

(Chorus)

1...2... Ready, Go.... You cry at movies on our dates
Romantic comedies sure are great
But when your sad i'll dry your tears
Coz i'll always think that you are fierce

I like cigarettes, and thats no gag
But you'll always be my favourite fag
You'll always be my favourite fag
You'll always be my favourite....

(Chorus x 3 to fade)

Plagiarism

For those unaware, the definition of plagiarism is the act of copying another's work while claiming it as their own. One example of lyrical plagiarism is the debate as to whether Robbie Williams' "I've been expecting you" copycats Loudon Wainwright III's "I am the Way." The alleged plagiarism is over the phrase "I suppose even the son of God/Gets it hard sometimes," which is featured and repeated in both songs.

Prompt Swap

Adam smiled to himself, counting the money he had gotten from his regular Tuesday night of passing X off to his 'clients.' "Sweet green." the smug grin never left his face. "They take the pill, I get the dough. I ought to suppose Tony will want a cut of tonight's profit." He put his thick wad of cash into his wallet. "Tomorrow... maybe." Adam whistled on as he came across Tony himself, under a dim lamppost. "Well, Adam?" "You know, same old same old." "You say that every night. Does this mean that I can assume-" "When I get some cash flow, I'll let tou know." said Adam, his hand nervously gripping the leather pouch in his pocket. "Wrong." "Excuse me, Tony?" Before he knew it, the back of his head was struck and the world went white. By the time he could blink back into focus, he was already being struck into a shady oblivion... It was hours before he awoke. "Tony, c'mon man, this is crazy!" Adam said through a fat, bloody lip. "I'm missing teeth, man!" "Shut your yap, Adam, you've been laundering cash from me for the past year, and you know it!" "I dunno, man, but this is crazy!" "Enough talking" "Crazy!!" Tony had Adam tied up in the back of his own car, a few henchmen in there with them. Tony drove Adam's sweet lexus to the suburbs. "Are you taking me home?" "To hell, I am." Just a few blocks off from his abode, Adam was thrown onto the sidewalk. His body tumbled, gaining severe road rash on his body; if Tony hadn't stolen his thick winter coat, the one which contained his heavy wallet, he wouldn't have been ripped up so bad. In the middle of the February night, Adam bled and froze whilst wallowing in his own lonliness. By the time the morning had arrived, Adam was rushed off in an ambulance [summoned by the neighbors]. His mother, sister, and girlfriend were at his side once he was declared stable. In a coma, yes, but stable... "Who did this?" asked Angela. "Why would anyone do this to him?!" Only Adam and Tony would know.

Martial Mathers by Eminem; Song Analysis

There have been many song artists, especially in the rap element, that have a feud with one another. Either they rap each other out, call out their enemies through their lyrics, or sometimes things even result in violence. Eminem, rap artist also known as Slim Shady, has a feud with the band I.C.P [Insane Clown Posse] and it’s leading artists Violent J and Shaggy2Dope. [Background information: The lyrics I will be using is a response by Eminem from a song mocking Eminem, by I.C.P, called “Slim Anus”]. In the song “Martial Mathers,” Eminem’s profane and anti-gay slurs used to insult I.C.P contain the usage of rhyme, allusion, and alliteration.

As a rap artist, rhyming is essential. In the lines “Plus I was put here to put fear in faggots who spray Faygo Root Beer/and call themselves "Clowns" cause they look queer,” he rhymes “beer” with “queer.” In other parts of the song, he rhymes “nails” and “females,” or “wristwatches” with “nauseous.” Sometimes, he uses imperfect rhymes such as “started” with “garbage.”

His allusion to I.C.P’s song is very much in evidence; Eminem does no try to hide his allusion at all, as in evidence with the following lines: “Plus I was put here to put fear in faggots who spray Faygo Root Beer/and call themselves "Clowns" cause they look queer” or “’Slim Anus,’ you damn right, Slim Anus/I don't get f!!!!!d in mine like you two little flaming faggots!” Despite seeming rather homophobic and profane, it is very clear that he is referring to I.C.P’s Violent J and Shaggy2Dope.

Lastly, Eminem uses a great deal of alliteration to get his point across. He uses his alliteration, typically, with a great deal of slurs and swears: "fear in faggots who spray Faygo" has a series of the 'fffff' sound. Also, he says "'Clowns' cause they look queer," rhyming the 2 C's and the Q.

Perhaps Eminem isn't homophobic nor against gay rights. Then again, this isn't his only song that displays an advanced dislike for gays. In another defense, Eminem could be using these words [gay, faggot, queer, retarded, etc] in the way that practically everyone else uses them [despite the fact that it is wrong]; they are now considered mere insults, and he is trying to insult the members of I.C.P. Nevertheless, he effectively uses alliteration, allusion, and rhyme.

Martial Mathers by Eminem

"Marshall Mathers"

[Eminem]
You know I just don't get it
Last year I was nobody
This year I'm sellin records
Now everybody wants to come around like I owe em somethin
Heh, the f!!k you want from me, ten million dollars?
Get the f!!k out of here

[Chorus One: Eminem]

You see I'm, just Marshall Mathers (Marshall Mathers)
I'm just a regular guy,
I don't know why all the fuss about me (fuss about me)
Nobody ever gave a f!!k before,
all they did was doubt me (did was doubt me)
Now everybody wanna run they mouth
and try to take shots at me (take shots at me)

[Eminem]
Yo, you might see me joggin, you might see me walkin
You might see me walkin a dead rottweiler dog
with it's head chopped off in the park with a spiked collar
hollerin at him cause the son of a bitch won't quit barkin
(grrrr, ARF ARF) Or leanin out a window, with a cocked shotgun
Drivin up the block in the car that they shot 'Pac in
Lookin for Big's killers, dressed in ridiculous
blue and red like I don't see what the big deal is
Double barrel twelve gauge bigger than Chris Wallace
Pissed off, cause Biggie and 'Pac just missed all this
Watchin all these cheap imitations get rich off 'em
and get dollars that shoulda been there's like they switched wallets
And amidst all this Crist' poppin and wristwatches
I just sit back and just watch and just get nauseous
and walk around with an empty bottle of Remi Martin
startin s!!t like some 26-year-old skinny Cartman ("God damnit!")
I'm anti-Backstreet and Ricky Martin
with instincts to kill N'Sync, don't get me started
These f!!!!n brats can't sing and Britney's garbage
What's this bitch retarded? Gimme back my sixteen dollars
All I see is sissies in magazines smiling
Whatever happened to whylin out and bein violent?
Whatever happened to catchin a good-ol' fashioned
passionate ass-whoopin and gettin your shoes coat and your hat tooken?
New Kids on the Block, sucked a lot of d!!k
Boy/girl groups make me sick
And I can't wait 'til I catch all you faggots in public
I'ma love it.. (hahaha)
Vanilla Ice don't like me (uh-uh)
Said some s!!t in Vibe to spite me (yup)
Then went and dyed his hair just like me (hehe)
A bunch of little kids wanna swear just like me
and run around screamin, "I don't care, just bite me" (nah nah)
I think I was put here to annoy the world
and destroy your little 4-year-old boy or girl
Plus I was put here to put fear in faggots who spray Faygo Root Beer
and call themselves "Clowns" cause they look queer
Faggot2Dope and Silent Gay
Claimin Detroit, when y'all live twenty miles away (f!!!in punks)
And I don't wrestle, I'll knock you f!!!!n faggots the f!!k out
Ask 'em about the club they was at when they snuck out
after they ducked out the back when they saw us and bugged out
(AHHH!) Ducked down and got paintballs shot at they truck, blaow!
Look at y'all runnin your mouth again
when you ain't seen a f!!!!n Mile Road, South of 10
And I don't need help, from D-12, to beat up two females
in make-up, who may try to scratch me with Lee Nails
"Slim Anus," you damn right, Slim Anus
I don't get f!!!!d in mine like you two little flaming faggots!

[Chorus Two: Eminem]

Cause I'm, just Marshall Mathers (Marshall Mathers)
I'm not a wrestler guy,
I'll knock you out if you talk about me (you talk about me)
Come and see me on the streets alone
if you assholes doubt me (assholes doubt me)
And if you wanna run your mouth
then come take your best shot at me (your best shot at me)

[Eminem]
Is it because you love me that y'all expect so much of me?
You little groupie bitch, get off me, go f!!k Puffy
Now because of this blonde mop that's on top
and this f!!!ed up head that I've got, I've gone pop?
The underground just spunned around and did a 360
Now these kids diss me and act like some big sissies
"Oh, he just did some s!!t with Missy,
so now he thinks he's too big to do some s!!t with MC Get-Bizzy"
My f!!!!n bitch mom's suin for ten million
She must want a dollar for every pill I've been stealin
S!!t, where the f!!k you think I picked up the habit?
All I had to do was go in her room and lift up her mattress
Which is it bitch, Mrs. Briggs or Ms. Mathers?
It doesn't matter your [attorney Fred Gibson's a] faggot!
Talkin about I fabricated my past
He's just aggravated I won't ejaculate in his ass (Uhh!)
So tell me, what the hell is a fella to do?
For every million I make, another relative sues
Family fightin and fussin over who wants to invite me to supper
All the sudden, I got 90 some cousins (Hey it's me!)
A half-brother and sister who never seen me
or even bothered to call me until they saw me on TV
Now everybody's so happy and proud
I'm finally allowed to step foot in my girlfriend's house
Hey-hey! And then to top it off, I walked to the newsstand
to buy this cheap-ass little magazine with a food stamp
Skipped to the last page, flipped right fast
and what do I see? A picture of my big white ass
Okay, let me give you motherf!!!ers some help:
uhh, here - DOUBLE XL, DOUBLE XL
Now your magazine shouldn't have so much trouble to sell
Ahh f!!k it, I'll even buy a couple myself

[Chorus One (2X)]

Legands, Myths, and Oddities

Robert Johnson

In proof of Robert Johnson's song "The Crossroad" representing him selling his own soul to the devil, ties between the meaning of crossroads and Satanic figures were made. In research, the demonic god Legba was a deity whom was claimed to be the "trickster" of crossroads and entrances. Legba was a form of voodoo devil that represented Satan in many religions.

Therfore, the devil that Robert Johnson had theroetically sold his soul at a crossroad to was referring to Legba, the Devil of Crossroads.

Ozzy Osbourne

Osbourne has reportedley torn off the head of a bat and a dove for entertainment and/or expression of potential insanity with his own mouth. The initial case, the bat, was for a concert in "a rock induced demonic state" to dazzle his peers and fanatics. In the secondary case, he had released two doves to start a peaceful meeting with CBS records; the third dove lost its head.

Abbey Road

Many believe that the Abbey Road poster has several signs indicating that Paul McCarthy is dead and has been replaced with a false Paul.

• Lennon is dressed in all white with long hair and a beard, indicating that he is God or Jesus
• Ringo Star has a very neat, black suit, indicating that he is the pastor
• Paul is messy as if he'd been in an accident
• Paul also has no shoes [in many cultures, one was buried without shoes]
• George is last and casual, as if he is the gravedigger
• Paul's ciggarette is being held in the wrong hand, for he was left handed

Electric Dylan

When Bob Dylan decided to go electric, he was booed from the stage. This is because he was seen as the immortal icon of folk music, and that folk music did not include elcretic intruments, rather a more earthy sound of acoustic pleasures. Nowadays, some refuse to refer to him as folk anymore because of his electric record "Bringing it Back Home" from 1965.

Led Zepplin's "Stairway to Heavan"

Many have been afriad of backmasking, especially since they could always find dark and satanic messages within the songs played backwards. Many joined the hysteria that the backmasked songs were going to force children to "commit sins and participate in risky behaviour." This song was no exception to that fear.
