BBA 3: The Second Eviction: Farewell Desert Walker

TK pulls a move that I dare say was pretty smart. Saying that he replaced himself with the lady he figured stood the lowest chances of being evicted if she was nominated. Oh shit! He replaced himself with Hillary Clinton! Wait, why is Lucille looking really down? The sleeping pill was TK’s replacement?

Oh yeah, there was a jam by I-Jay type ladies at the beginning of the show. This just in, they are called Irene and Jane. I-Jay? Oh this is going to be shortlived.

AD Break. There is a tree in Africa that has the ability to produce all kinds of fruit, including Watermelons. This tree is called Eobank. Hehe, bank with us if you’re feeling fruity.

I love the support the Tanzanians gave their hotcake. She describes her relationships with Morris and Ricco as “No romance”. Well, with her out of the house with no money, looks like she came back carrying No romance with no finance.

The Namibians have Lucille’s back…and if they keep this up, they will have her back…home. I must say, she looks pretty.

Ricco has lost his hair, Tawana has grown hers. Morris has… oh, look, DSTV says I should press OK.

The Nigerians want Uti back in the house. For ****’s sake, why must everyone channel their inner cheerleader?

Lucille looks depressed as she says goodbye. Shut up Biggie! This is a depressing moment. Oh, that’s cute, she has a top that has Munya’s name on it. Of course, its at the eleventh hour that Munya gets to be on her body.

Oh yeah, as-if- I-Jay are from Ghana. Its like Brick and Lace without the IT-Factor.

The results are in. I’m nervous. My stomach is churning. Silly beans!

Lucille is OUT! Well, not before Ricco tries to unclasp her bra…or hug her. I can’t tell with the sound of glass being shattered. That’s the sound of heartbreak. Uti’s. It also sounds like the F word.

Post eviction interview. Lucille is not feeling too bad. This is the most interesting she has been thus far. Ricco is a harbinger of doom. Anything he touches goes home. Dude must be careful about touching himself.

Ricco turns on the waterworks whilst Uti kicks shit around and Lucille hits on Kabelo. She has a look that suggests she wants her some him…

Holy! One nomination and she was out…shouting. Kabelo asks her what makes her come out of her shell. Is “shell” code for “clothes”?

Crap, she’s crying. So is Sheila. And she is Topless. What happens when Sheila cries someone a river?

Lucille says she and Ricco are just friends. But he counted your friggin’ freckles!

Mimi is also crying. Wait. I think it was her that was crying her eyes out with no top. Heh, Bareback Fountain.

AD Break.

It’s a great year for Lollipops, what with all the publicity and shit.

Dang man, everyone’s really miserable. Oh TK, you are so out of there. (confirmed, Sheila is not the bareback wailer, she has gone to get herself some shisha)

Lucille maintains that she is naturally a very shy person…this after telling the viewers she had forgotten to shave.

11 countries voted Lucille out. Damn You Africa!!

Tawana is scheming with Hazel. Hazel is wearing white pants and I’m out!

skirting on petty issues

It’s old news. Nsaba Buturo has gone and opened his trap yet again. This time round, because he realised he’d simply be repeating himself ( and thereby boring himself as well) he avoided Big Brother and went after short skirts.  click dis!    and dis one coz its new

I am not one to claim that I know the inner workings of parliament, but don’t we usually send these guys in to represent us. To discuss issues that really really count. I mean, come on, miniskirts?? 

The vibe I’m picking up here is that this dude was bullied as a kid and he views this as an opportunity for payback. 

I seriously wanted to go into the whole Big Brother issue, but I can’t see what his angle there is/was. “I never got to hang out with the cool kids, I won’t let Uganda see others” ? That’s a possible angle. But the thing is, the last lot of contestants were not the cool kids. Well, not entirely.

According to the web,

“Minister Nsaba Buturo told journalists in the capital Kampala that wearing a miniskirt was like walking naked in the streets.”

I beg to differ Mr. Minister. Walking Naked is like WALKING NAKED in the streets, wearing a miniskirt is nothing like that. Not even the kind that are as thick as a belt, or a handkerchief. We have seen naked people walk around the streets and I assure you, seeing someone in a miniskirt is tonnes better and does not really provoke a gag reflex. It may provoke an entirely different reflex, but shit. It IS NOT LIKE WALKING NAKED!!

“You can cause an accident because some of our people are weak mentally.”

Dude! I know as the minister of Ethics and such you are supposed to be the custodian of all things sacred and pure, but don’t bloody make generalisations like that. “Some of our people”…”Our people”? WTF? We had to deal with the whole Amin thing, now you’re giving us that? 

A guy logs into a chat room and introduces himself…

-” I’m from Uganda and I am hot for you, I wanna slide my”

-”Hang on… Uganda? I’ve heard about you. Sorry sweetie, I don’t think you can handle this jelly. I’m way too bootylicious for you.”

-”But…”

-”I know your type, you’re weak mentally.  Bye sugar” 

- “Shit! That’s the 6th one this week.  I will never be able to get a visa! Damn You Nsaba Buturo”

“If you find a naked person you begin to concentrate on the make-up of that person and yet you are driving.”

Okay, that’s all kinds of wrong. If I found a naked person, the last thing I’d be concentrating on is the make up. No matter what kind of eye-liner or masacara or whatever she’s got. Even if it was Beyonce’s Bleaching Cream… unless of course you meant to say concentrating on the “anatomy”…and even then, I really doubt anyone that found a naked person would find this person whilst behind the wheel of a car.  I mean, dayummm that’s some friggin ambition right there. 

But let’s compromise. How about this, if a person is driving and chances upon a naked being, let him drive to the side of the road, park and kill the engine and then “concentrate on the make up of the person” that is naked at the time. Naked people do not last forever. So, after said naked person has left the line of vision of the driver, he can get into his car and drive away. Thus, no accidents. 

“These days you hardly know who is a mother from a daughter, they are all naked”
I wasn’t going to say this, but, Sir…are you married? Do you have kids?… are you trying to tell us something?
Would I be right to say that some of our politicians are weak mentally? That they cause accidents by not debating the issues that matter… that these days you hardly know a kid from a minister of ethics  

How many accidents are caused by drivers fighting to switch off the car radio when Nsaba speaks?

Should they ban him?

In closing, conversation between colleagues 

-Nothing onscreen has more getting laid than sex and the city

-Clearly you don’t know about porn

 

Boda-line Madness

There is a new wave of crime that’s gripped the city…or groped it. Somehow the word sounds pretty inappropriate, but Gripped sounds wrong. I don’t have a dictionary and I’m too shy to ask people around me. The truth is, I live my life in constant fear that I may, one day say the wrong thing and be branded a pervert.

So anyway, the modus operandi, M.O if you will involves people hiding bars of metal in their jackets and then posing as boda boda riders. It’s very likely that they really are boda boda riders and they are not just posing. They just happen to have bars with them. These guys, who the police say are usually “very built and fresh out of jail” take unsuspecting passengers to some shady dark spot and then beat them up. They don’t do it for shits and giggles. This is a precursor to robbery.

Suffice to say, this has got me reconsidering my options for transportation. I generally favor bodas because of the convenience with which we weave through traffic, but shit, I favor being alive more. Call it a weakness.

That said, I have a stubborn streak that just won’t go away. It is this stubborn streak that had me by the side of the road waiting for a two wheeler. I was getting pretty frustrated, because none had turned up and anyone just waiting by the side of the road without a short dress preferably with a slit, bleached skin and a limited command of the English language looks dodgy. Then lady luck threw me a quick glance and availed a boda.

My joy was short lived. The damn thing had “666” on its plates. I mean, seriously, how the heck do you jump on board (?) with no qualms? Especially with this wave of crime? If you got clobbered and ended up at the pearly gates, how would you justify that?

St. Peter: Hi guy. What brings you here?
Jehesophat: Er, I’m dead.
St. Peter: Oh yeah. That sucks. Wanna talk about it?
Jehesophat: Well, lights went dim. Breathing ceased. It’s not really a killer stor…
St. Peter: Haha, Killer story. Son, you crack me up. It was a boda boda wasn’t it. Death by boda. Man, when this whole death thing began it was way less complicated. So this boda, did you have a good look at him?
Jehesophat: No. It was dark, I was in a hurry to leave.
St. Peter: A lot of good that did you
Jehesophat: Hey!
St.Peter: Surely you looked at the plates…
Jehesophat: Er, well…
St. Peter: See. I mean, come on man. What were you thinking? Devil was showing off, didn’t even bother to hide his serial number. Three 6’s. What are you? A pagan?
Jehesophat: No, I actually go to church…weddings, baptisms, funerals, that sort of thing
St. Peter: Well, I’m afraid I can’t let you in. Your remote control is missing a few buttons…
Jehesophat: huh
St. Peter: Your cellphone lacks reception… your pizza has no toppings…your keyboard is missing a few keys…long story short, you are dumb.
Jehesophat: So what happens now? I mean, I’m dead and everything.
St.Peter: Well, we can’t send you down to hell. I know, we will compromise. How do you feel about Local artistes
Jehesophat: I don’t!
St. Peter: Hmmm, okay, so a local artiste you shall be. Adios Amigo!

Zap!

Then there’s boda boda guys that just don’t get it. I will not be impressed by how well you know the country. Seriously. I don’t give a shit. I will, however, be pretty pissed if you claim you know where we are going and then after I er, climb aboard you rely on me as your personal GPS system. I am not good with places. I can’t be expected to know where Ben Kiwanuka street is. I’ve set foot on it, but I didn’t have the sense to stop some random soul and ask, “where am I”, this in part due to the fact that that line usually triggers the animal instinct in people.

I’m kinda sleepy right now, so I will leave you with this;

Boy to girl; This nation is built on trust
Girl to boy: Trust
Boy to girl: Yes. Trust funds

Check this guy out

Allow me to re-introduce myself

Many a people done been asking I and I why I done decide to become roco artis. I fink this be unfair classificalisation. It be a margination even where y’all be thinking we not good enough. We hip, we stylish. We done ‘ad it wit y’all hatin on us and callin us names. We be standin up to be counted. We shall now be referred to as Indigenous Artis. In short, and in the interest of y’all not bitin ya tongues, you can call us eye-ahs! So that means if dat lady frum KFM done decide to join us, y’all be saying, ai-ah-aisha!

I n I done realize dat I av not introduce ma self ma props. You will call me IT. Like its short for Ivan Tamale, but it is not. That’s not IT‘s real name. I am anonymous like that biscuit in Bobby Valentino’s jam that may have inspected me to do this song…or inspired or whatever. See, de way afi go about it, I’ma release chart topping no.1 new album single called IT Is Da Shit. It ain’t random jam about constipation. Is tight new single with guarantee of number one status on di radio wiv a monkey oh…ok dat line done been used by radio and nasal…but point is, me will av number one hit. I paid producer to grease pums of radio deejay.

I been axed why not I am calling IT TI. I tell you this one. Some punk ass visa wielder done go and get de name before I N I did. But it’s okay. He no cool the way I are. In fact, I be ‘ere lookin fru da Circular Vitamins (CeeVee, doh!) of potentshow collaboratuz. I be impressed by dis guy Shawn “dof-nuts”. He really ryt dof like cough, but as an indigeneous artis, IT has to be helping brethren.

SO, without waistin time, I give you rylix to first number one jam to top de charts of radio… is inspired by embattled religious head.

Slice and Dice; The “article”

Source:Daily Monitor…and then some

On the evening of July 31, a short woman in blue compact jeans chased a beefy man around a bar table as she mirthfully pleaded to have her phone back.

I was there and I honestly can’t remember seeing a beefy man amongst us. It may have been the drugs I was on, but seriously, do we have a beefy blogger? I need to know coz I need to put on some beef.

Patrons raised their eyes from their drinks and watched on mystified, wondering if this "run-and-catch" was part of the entertainment menu.

Those patrons, you can’t really please them. I mean there was this one time I stood in front of the "projector-thingy" and messed up their soccer viewing, but no one seemed to give a shit. Also, I suspect they had already had a look at the menu printed out and displayed near the projector’s screen… Read more
