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.
