Expo - people are stupid.

That's no hate to either of you, i didn't even vote on the battle haha but in general, a lot of dope stuff is missed because simply; people are stupid.

Also, saying "the first shot is done" referring to how Kurt Cobain killed himself with one shot, makes the phrase "nerve.on.a pun" an actual pun. So "come atcha personally" is attacking his personal avatar.

Musta just purchased a drink if you're saying "reef ill"... as in the only time I'll hear him say that, he's actually asking for a "refill". Also, tying into "first shot is done".. shot as in liquor.

Then the allergic punch.

All of that versus a decent palm reader punch and two other VERY soft plays on words sprinkled with fictional gunplay.





Yeah.. I'm still not seeing it.

That Is A Long Expo
And Nobody Sees What You Are Seeing
Wow... You Must Feel Like A Hypocrite Right About Now

Out of courtesy, I'd like to see those who voted against me explain why they did.. because I've read these over and over, and I'm not seeing how that bar beat mine. Maybe people needed expo's or something.. but no one asked for one, so.. I don't know.

Your Uh Bar.... Wasn't That Good To Be Perfectly Honest
Reefers Wasn't That Much Better. And The Palm Line Is Overly Played

That Line Is Complete Bullshit
