pile-o-tricks 

pile-o-tricks — How the word “politics” is said in Black Barber Shops in major metropolitan urban centers. The use of this word recognizes the “Charlie Brown” reality that “Lucy will move the American ball” whenever any minority group makes progress.

*** More women, and minorities in college: change the admission rules — pile-o-tricks!!!!!

*** More women in the workforce and not at home: change the abortion laws — pile-o-tricks!!!!!!

*** More minority voting: gerrymandering —pile-o-tricks!!!!!!!!!

*** Develop a work skill: the fine fine print of your contract has a non-competition clause. You can’t do the same job in 200 mile radius of your place of employment for more money — PILE-O-TRICKS!!!!!!

*** Too many immigrants: ignore the poem Emma Lazarus poem: New Colossus on the Statue of Liberty — PILE-O-TRICKS!!!!!

*** White Domestic Terrorism: Boys will be boys —PILE-O-TRICKS!!!!!!!!!!

It’s almost certain that no matter which side of the “football” you’re on; you can come up with your own examples. Just say the quiet part out loud!

The Charlie Brown analogy is based on the theory that Charlie Brown is a high-yellow Black child with Alopecia Areata — remember, we never see any of the parents in any Peanuts comics or cartoons. Prove me wrong.

Do the research!!!!!

And remember: “Grit your teeth Charlie Brown; lace up your shoes; screw up your determination; and, GRIT YOUR TEETH!!!!! Kick that ball Charlie Brown…KICK THAT BALL!!!!!!!!
It’s all pile-o-tricks and lawyers man! I found a tech job just like mine making twice as much money. Aced the interview and the test only to find out that my company has me under a non-competition contract; and, I can’t be hired by another company. They called where I worked and I got fired because they found out I was looking for a job. Pile-o-tricks, man…PILE-O-TRICKS.

tricky knight 

As infamously coined by Jerry from the ChessNetwork, a tricky knight causes great grief during speedy chess matches, via forks and strong outposts.
Tricky knight, where is he headed? He wants an outpost on d5, I have to stop that. Pawn push? That knight would be a monster on d5.

Tricky knight, tricky knight, what is he up to? Uhhhohhh noooo a fork! My queen is gone, can I save this? Oh I think they just had a mouse slip! That's mate on h2, back to tournament!!
