I know it’s a joke and all that. But do people really not get the line? I mean, sometimes it’s hard to grasp the lyrics of rap songs, especially when they’re rapping so fast and using obscure metaphors and references. But this one is delivered quite calmly and could be taken quite literally.
So I found Found this. So he’s talking about the character he plays. I always tought the movie was autobiographical and that Marshall Mathers played as himself…
Also if the line is not literal, does he simply mean that Jimmy’s life is a mess?
Jimmy ate a dinner of spaghetti that his mother prepared. Jimmy was extremely nervous and threw up a bit. Some dinner came out of his mouth and got on his sweater.
Frankly, Jimmy is challenging himself. This will lead to Jimmy learning new things, even if this is embarrassing.

That’s what I always thought, but based on what the other guy said there seemed to be a less literal meaning or something
Ackshually, with only a few exceptions – and contrary to popular belief-- bats aren’t blind and most see quite well with their eyes. Like and subscribe for more bat facts.
Did you know that guano can act as fertilizer and has natural antifungal properties? Historically, it has also been sought as a source of nitrates in gunpowder and other explosives, and even had an important cameo in an Ace Ventura movie.
i’ve read marx. at precisely no point does he say anything justifying the various atrocities state capitalist countries have committed. i think he’s wrong about some stuff, but even if you accept that his word is gospel, tankies are still just people who took leftist principles as an excuse for the imposing the kind of brutal authoritarianism that leftists are supposed to be against.
I mean tbh, waking up naturally shortly before your first alarm is MUCH better than being woken up in the middle of deep sleep by your alarm. I always feel 10x better when I wake up shortly before my alarm as opposed to being pissed off that my alarm is going off in the middle of my precious sleep.
America has proven time and time again that it can’t be “fixed”, it’s rotten from the ground up. The longer it stays around the more people it harms. My entire life has been nothing but financial crisis after financial crisis, war after war, a rapidly deteriorating climate, all in the name of profits, and nobody in power seems to want to do jack shit about it. The only way to fix it is to dismantle the structures of power and replace it with a structure where capital doesn’t pull the strings.
L take, communism and socialism don’t work and never will. There’s a reason every communist or socialist country has failed or fallen back into capitalism for the masses and authoritarianism for the top.
“During the years of Stalin’s reign, the Soviet nation made dramatic gains in literacy, industrial wages, health care, and women’s rights. These accomplishments usually go unmentioned when the Stalinist era is discussed. To say that “socialism doesn’t work” is to overlook the fact that it did. In Eastern Europe, Russia, China, Mongolia, North Korea, and Cuba, revolutionary communism created a life for the mass of people that was far better than the wretched existence they had endured under feudal lords, military bosses, foreign colonizers, and Western capitalists. The end result was a dramatic improvement in living conditions for hundreds of millions of people on a scale never before or since witnessed in history.” Michael Parenti, Blackshirts and Reds: Rational Fascism and the Overthrow of Communism
