Don't down 'em, crown 'em!

Recognize that line? If you don't, you suck. If you do, good job! That line is brought to you by none other than Pimpin' Ken. Never really knew what it meant until I decided to write this blog. I just thought it sounded cool to say. Win some money? Don't down 'em, crown 'em! Got off work early? Don't down 'em, crown 'em! Some seemingly innocent, but obnoxious little kid kicks you in the shin? Don't down 'em, crown 'em! See? It applies to everything! As it turns out, the quote is actually saying when someone hates on you or rather, when you feel the need to hate on someone, don't. By doing so, it just makes people more interesting in who or whatever it is you're hating on and it further solidifies that person or thing as something of value. Now, I can continue on with how nice of a philosophy that is and blah blah blah, but what fun would that be for anyone? Instead, allow me to go off on a tangent about how this one time, at band camp, I saw a girl stick a tuba in her "no-no" place. True story? Not for me, but probably for someone else.I do have a few tales of my own though. None of which involve tubas or no-no places. Hmm... maybe I should work on that. I do remember this one time, at home camp(yeah I really just said that), where I was playing with my G.I. Joes and my mom said, "Go outside". I knew that meant that upon my return, I was likely to find a few toys missing. I usually protected the ones I cherished most; everyone else[the toys] could fend for themselves. I would always get mad when I came home to find the newest addition to my G.I. Joe army, missing. Chances are, I would've been OK had I known the cardinal rule; don't down 'em, crown 'em! What? You didn't think I'd bring it back home?LOL
