Hang it up

Hang it up

I’m all for trying your best and being all you can be. I firmly believe that one must get and keep an optimistic I’m a winner mentality to succeed in life; but one must also accept one’s weaknesses. Sometime you got to keep it real with yourself and say hey I gave it a shot and you know what I think it’s just not in the cards for me to do this.  

Yeah you got to know when to chalk it the game sometimes and accept an L.  Everybody has hang –ups and short comings in life. When faced with your hang ups hang it up and let it dry.  Having said that here’s a list of scenarios in which a person should definitely hang it up.

Hang it up if you are an x gamer and have been doing stupid stunts on skateboards and bikes for nearly a decade and you’re not on any professional teams or have any commercial endorsement deals. Hang it up bro it’s not in the cards for you to be a daredevil. All you’re going to end up doing is becoming a paraplegic.

Hang it up if you love clubbing but you can only go to clubs that don’t have a one drink minimum or a cover charge. Um you probably can’t afford to go out every single weekend either. You most likely wear the same damn outfit every time you do go out. You can’t by the bar, hell you probably can’t pop one bottle of some cheap shit.  You can’t make it rain, you can’t afford a VIP section, you can’t parking lot pimp, you can’t by a wing basket or a shrimp basket. Hang it up. Buy a bottle of knock off Ciroc call some friends over to play some bones and spades. Don’t go out to the club! Hang it up.

Hang it up if you want to be a singer but can’t sing a lick.  When you sing do people bite their bottom lip? When you sing do people roll their eyes or stop you before you get to the bridge of the song? Are you in a choir? Have you ever won a talent show? If you can answer yes to the first two and no to the last two guess what. Yo ass can’t sing! If you’re in the single digits, preteens, late teens and early twenties you might get better in time. If your beyond that age just hum or sing in the shower because all the voice lessons in the world aint going to help you. Don’t sing because you can’t!
 hang it up!

Hang it up if you love the idea of finding that special one and being in love if you’re a nympho. If every story you tell involves people making out, clothes coming off or some type sexual act or some type of misogyny then hate to bust your bubble but you’re a horny mof. If you can’t control your sexual urges you’re never going to be in a healthy relationship. You need medicine, Jesus, Allah, Buddha, Jehovah,  JAH,... all of em. . Maybe losing your porn collection might help out too. A steady relationship just aint in the cards for you. Move to Cali and pursue a career in the adult film industry, but for the most part hang it up!

Hang it up if your over 40 years old and your still gang banging. If your lieutenants are your teenage sons and nephews in their twenties. You might be past your prime.  You need to take that do rag off, pull your pants up, pull that one pant leg down, and quit making an ass out of yourself.  If you approach a woman in the night club and say hey baby girl let me holla at cha to get her attention,you might be living in the past. If you have grey hair and still wear French braids, or Indian braids hang it the fuck up! Your tour of duty is officially over OG. You need to quit hangn out with them babies and grow the hell up.  You need to join a lodge and do some old guy shit.

Hang it up if you hail from another country and don’t write, speak, read, or understand your native tongue. Especailly if you’re Asian or Latino WTF. I know the American culture is pretty amazing. We got McDonalds, stove top mac n cheese, American Idol, and MTV but damn it if everybody in your family speaks your native tongue and you’re the only one that doesn’t you might as well hang it up and just say you're Caucasian because you suck at representing your nationality.  Seriously!

Hang it up if you’re a blogger and all you do is blog about celebrities on your blog. Um newsflash them mof got money. If their famous and on TV their probably getting paid. They don’t give two shits about you trashing them in your timeline on twitter, especially if they drive an Aston Martin.  You’re wasting your time. Get some fresh air and a life.

Well can’t talk about everybody else without talking about myself. I’m black and live in Iowa, I’m under six feet tall, I’m middle aged with no children, I’m chunky, and my hair is starting to thin. I’m trying to make a love connection with a 22 year old chick that lives 3 states away from me that I met on a social network.  Yup. I hung it up aloooong time ago.
Life's a crap shoot and you have to take a chance to win. but when you gamble you also got to know when the cash the chips in.
