This is behind a cut because it’s long. And eye-gougingly painful to read. If you are of delicate sensibilities and are offended by inappropriate capitalization and run-on sentences, then — well, then, what the hell are you doing on this blog? But if you are of strong of mind, and think you can withstand the slings and arrows of outrageous grammar, then carry on.

Madonna Fearturning Justin Timberlake & Timbaland
I’m outta time and all I got is 4 minutes(x8)
Come on
Yeah
Break down
Come onCome on boy
I’ve been waiting for somebody
To pick up my stroll

Well don’t waste time
Give me a sign
Tell me how you wanna roll

I want somebody to speed it up for me
Then take it down slow
There’s enough room for both

Well, I can handle that
You just gotta show me where it’s at
Are you ready to go
(Are you ready to go)

If you want it
You already got it
If you thought it
It better be what you want
If you feel it
It must be real just
If you say it, it better be what you want

Time is waiting
We only got 4 minutes to save the world
No hesitating
Grab a boy
Grab a girl
Time is waiting
We only got 4 minutes to save the world
No hesitating
We only got 4 minutes, 4 minutes

Keep it up, keep it up, don’t be a pri, hey
Madonna, uh
You gotta get `em all hot
Tick tock tick tock tick tock
That’s right, keep it up, keep it up, don’t be a pri, hey
Madonna, uh
You gotta get `em all hot
Tick tock tick tock tick tock

Sometimes I think what I need is a you intervention, yeah

And you know I can tell that you like it
And that it’s good, by the way that you move, ooh, hey

The road to heaven is paved with good intentions, yeah

But if I die tonight
At least I can say I did what I wanted to do
Tell me, how bout you?

If you want it
You come and get it
If you thought it
It better be what you want
If you feel it
It must be real just
Say the word and im a give you what you want

Time is wasting
We only got 4 minutes to save the world
No hesitating
Grab a boy
Grab a girl
Time is wasting
We only got 4 minutes to save the world
No hesitating
We only got 4 minutes, 4 minutes

Keep it up, keep it up, don’t be a pri, hey

Tick tock tick tock tick tock

Breakdown
Yeah
(tick tock tick tock tick tock)
Yeah, uh huh
(tick tock tick tock tick tock)
I only got 4, minutes to save the world & Mariah Carey There’s a hero
If you look inside your heart
You don’t have to be afraid
Of what you are
There’s an answer
If you reach into your soul
And the sorrow that you know
Will melt away

And then a hero comes along
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fears aside
And you know you can survive
So when you feel like hope is gone
Look inside you and be strong
And you’ll finally see the truth
That a hero lies in you

It’s a long road
When you face the world alone
No one reaches out a hand
For you to hold
You can find love
If you search within yourself
And the emptiness you felt
Will disappear

And then a hero comes along
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fears aside
And you know you can survive
So when you feel like hope is gone
Look inside you and be strong
And you’ll finally see the truth
That a hero lies in you

Lord knows
Dreams are hard to follow
But don’t let anyone
Tear them away
Hold on
There will be tomorrow
In time
You’ll find the way

And then a hero comes along
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fears aside
And you know you can survive
So when you feel like hope is gone
Look inside you and be strong
And you’ll finally see the truth
That a hero lies in you

That a hero lies in you Thx For Reading This & Taking The Time Too View This No Means Too Offend Anyone Here Thx.

Oh, did I forget to mention the random quotation of the entirety of “Four Minutes” and “Hero”? Gosh, I can’t imagine how that slipped my mind.

Okay, I’ve got to break this one down for a translation. There’s too much.

I’m Sure I’m Aware That This City is Over 100 Years Old

If there’s anything I’m sure I’m aware of, it’s that. Grammar and punctuation, not so much, but I’m sure I’m aware of that.

There’s Broken Class & Cups & Annoyying Trash Behavior & Also Very Strange Abandoning Old Mimi Vans This Happen Also In Nov 2007 & Now 2009 It Happened Again In Sep 2009 & I Around Near My House Left at a Mail Box Very Annoyying

The trash behaves annoyingly. It abandons the vans that belonged to Mariah Carey during her “Emancipation of Mimi” period, thus explaining the Mariah Carey quotation. This happened in 2007, 2009 and 2009, and I left my house at a very annoying mail box.

Boy Some People Have To Much Time On There Hands

No, “Too Much Time on My Hands” was Styx, not Mariah Carey. It was during Tommy Shaw’s unfortunate page boy haircut period, so I can see how you’d get those two confused.

I Bet It Was The Orange Gangs Stuedents Behimnd This Mess 80 Percent of The Time & 20 Percent or 60 or Gangs or Drunks

That’s right, eighty percent of the time and twenty or sixty percent of the time, it’s gangs of orange students behind this mess. Or gangs. Or drunks. Or maybe gangs of drunken orange Mariah Careys.

Thanks to PB Heather for sending this in!

    Well, “The Help Boy” refers to himself and his brothers as heroes, so that explains the Hero reference. Although if he was looking for inspirational quotes, I think he needs to expand his horizons. Hey, the Rocky theme would have been a better fit. I vote we confiscate his tip cup and use it to send this guy back to elementary school.

    I also have a feeling that the criminal population may be expanding in the future if this guy plans on being a crime scene investigator. Just saying.

      I would not want this guy anywhere near a forensics lab. No good could come of it.
      Of course, he’s probably talking about those courses you see advertised on TV, where you can learn something like neurosurgery from the comfort of your own home.

      And why the heck is he asking for donations for volunteer services? Did he fail to learn the definition of ‘volunteer’ while getting his “ed”? (I assume he meant GED. The G must be silent, right?)

      Oh, I forgot; he’s a hero. They are usually rewarded with lavish feasts and the serving wench of their choice, right?

        I don’t know about the GED, he clearly says he’s studing for his ed. I assumed he’s been fornicating like crazy to have a son he hopes to name Ed. (You can tell it’s a person’s name because it’s the only non-capitalized word in there. It’s special.)

        As a librarian and currently single, I refuse to get more than two cats (and only have one now) so as to avoid potential crazy cat ladydom, or at least the stereotype thereof.
        That said, most of the cat lady types I’ve encountered are more articulate than this guy. And they refrain from quoting song lyrics at me, which is always commendable.

        I was told I’d crossed the threshold into crazy cat lady land when I let a friend leave the fourth one at our house and my husband promptly posted it on CL and found it a new family…poor cat, but he was right to do that. I can’t say no even when I want to and in reality, I didn’t want 4 cats. He sent number 3 to the farm to be a “mouser” for his grandparents shortly thereafter and now we have reached a compromise-he leaves my 2 original cats alone and I refrain from spinster behavior when I’m no longer single! After all, I still have my teacups and Pride and Prejudice to comfort me….hehehe!

          I have a friend who had one cat and married a man with three! He’s a definite “guy’s guy” type – the sort I’ve always associated with large-dog ownership – and yet obviously loved his kitties (all girls). And didn’t mind my friend bringing hers. Unusual, from my observation.

Now I’ve got a stray who comes to my apartment every night for food and cuddling and it is killing me to leave her outside but I can’t possibly take another cat into my one bedroom apartment (I already have previously mentioned cat, a dog, and a lizard).

          Tie him up high in the tree (that way, they can’t get him but he’ll make enough noise to attract ’em all), then give him a pistol to defend himself with- that way, he can last (possibly) until he starves or turns.

    I feel cheated after my analysis. I read this all the way through…and I think I lost a few IQ points in the process.

    But the song lyrics kinda hacked me off – I noticed that in his original tirade he uses ampersands (‘&’s)whereas the song lyrics actually feature the word ‘And’ several times. which leads me to the conclusion that he merely copied and pasted this from somewhere.

    This hacks me off because it means I spent more time reading the bloody thing than he did writing it – and that strikes me as being unfair in the extreme.

    So, sadly, I think I have an insight into what that guy means when he says “orange gangs” – not, in fact, California citrus gone wild, but work-release prisoner crews (in California, they wear orange jumpsuits). They do a lot of the maintenance on the freeway shoulders and grassy median strips, and they might litter sometimes. Mind you, a major part of what the crews do is pick up litter, but since this is a crazy person, expecting him to be consistent about who he blames for the problem is silly.

    So many possibilities of culprits. I’ve known people who call their grandmother “Mimi”, so could this mean a van that belongs to an old lady? Also, “stuedents” is just as close to suedents (Possibly people studying to become tailors using exclusively suede? Or people who dress exclusively in suede?) as it is to students… Then again, it’s also as close to Sue Dents as it is to students. So, does this mean that a gang of Christian vampire novelists are running around with old ladies? Or is it a gang of old ladies wearing orange suede? Either way, I’m not going to drive through Escondido again until these brave brave people get on CSI or whatever their goal was… sorry, my brain hurts.

      I think it might be a gang of old, orange clad, Christian, vampires studying to become mechanics. I mean it makes sense, what with everything you said plus the dead vans all around. The vampires must drain them of their life source (gas, oil, etc. depending on the vampire) before moving on. The broken class just shows that these are obviously sophisticated vampires who are used to Bentlys and Rolls Royces, not vans.

      I think this is actually a call out to vampire slayers, or atleast someone who can reason with them. Where’s Sookie when you need her?
