Come On Eileen!


Blog like nobody's reading. Because: They're not.

KNOW WHAT I'VE COME TO REALIZE? I'VE COME TO REALIZE THAT THE AUDIENCE THAT I'M TRYING TO REACH ON THIS BLOG (THE AUDIENCE THAT I'M TRYING TO TARGET ON THIS BLOG, WHICH IS THE YOUNG, URBAN, HIP HOP, GENERATION ME DEMOGRAPHIC) IS TOO UNINTELLIGENT, TOO UNEDUCATED, TOO INEXPERIENCED, AND TOO UNSOPHISTICATED TO UNDERSTAND WHAT'S BEING EXPRESSED IN THESE EXCERPTS, LET ALONE RELATE TO THEM AND APPLY THEM TO THEIR LIFE. THEY BARELY GRADUATED HIGH SCHOOL, HAVE NO PATIENCE, AND CAN HARDLY READ. WHAT MAKES ME THINK THAT THEY'LL HAVE THE INTELLIGENCE, PATIENCE, AND READING ABILITY TO TAKE THE TIME OUT OF THEIR MEANINGLESS DAY TO UNDERSTAND THIS STUFF? THE SAME GOES FOR ETHNIC MINORITIES (BLACKS AND BROWNS) WHO GRADUATED FROM LESS PRESTIGIOUS 4-YEAR UNIVERSITIES. MOST OF THEM DON'T UNDERSTAND THIS STUFF, NOR DO THEY WANT TO. THEY HAVE NO EXPERIENCE OR BACKGROUND IN ANY OF THIS AND THEREFORE CAN'T FATHOM IT, NOR DO THEY WANT TO FATHOM IT. UNFATHOMABLE

THIS ISN'T ABOUT FINDING YOUR ROOTS OR APPRECIATING OTHER CULTURES. THIS IS ABOUT UNIVERSAL PSYCHOLOGICAL ADAPTATIONS THAT LEAD TO OUR THOUGHTS, BEHAVIOR, SOCIETAL FORMATION, ETC.
