The G-Code.

I’m not one to tell tales out of school, but I’ve been the victim of d-baggery and general f*ckery.  Unfortunately, I can’t tell you exactly what I’m talking about because, well, I don’t tell tales out of school.

It’s a vicious cycle.

However, the uber d-baggery for which I’ve been privy has highlighted a facet of male life that I’m not sure many women are aware of.  It’s a facet that all women should pay attention to for it can be the key determinant in determining whether or not the man you’re dealing with is worth keeping around or not.  I sh*t you not.

Today I must share with you all some vital information so that women everywhere can get one step closer to being two steps further away from men who will reign terror on their homes and kitchens.

I’m speaking of men who have no respect for the G-Code.

What is the G-Code?  Glad you asked.

The G-Code is the unspoken set of rules that all men should just damn know to abide by.   It’s the rules to the game of life that all men should respect in terms of dealing with other men.  It’s the understanding that all men SHOULD have that helps guide their interactions with one another.  You don’t shoot on Sunday and you don’t put your gun on anybody who’s not in the game.  Much like soul music, the G-Code is…life.

(I know some of you have vh1 Soul and hate the dude with his tree collage and “Soul” belt buckle like I do.)

Women many be familiar with the twin code of female governance, The Vagina Monologues.   I don’t know about you, but I ain’t NEVER met a Vagina that engaged in monologues.  Closest I’ve come was to this stripper chick at the Blue Flame off of Bankhead in Atlanta who could make that thang smoke.

A loosie.

*rimshot*

Ahem.

I recognize that the definition of the G-Code leaves much to be desired but that’s because no man should ever have to explain it.  The rules should be understood. Unfortunately, like Herpes during a recession, some things just need explaining.  And remember women, if you date a man who might even consider doing (or in some cases, not doing) any of these things, he’s not worthy of your time.  Kill him.

(Some) G-CODE RULES

Thou shalt not date thine homies girlfriend, while he is dating her. Or ever, actually.  This is just bad business on some Enron meets Worldcom sh*t.

Thou shalt not do deeds behind thine homies back that will put him in a dangerous situation merely for thine own good. Especially for the p*ssy.

Thou shalt not throw another man under a bus to make thineself look good.

*coughKobecough*

Thou shalt remember that it’s bros before hoes.  Period.

Thou shalt not get jealous for jealousy is a female trait. ?-Jay-Z said it, not me.  Well, I mean I did say it, but I’m quoting, rather quothing Jay-Z.

Thou shalt not let emotions cloud one’s judgement. Men act rationally.  Unmen act on emotions.

Thou shalt do the crime if thou doesth the time.  Thou SHALL NOT attempt to reduce thine own sentence by taking down a homeboy on some Nino Brown non-sense.

Thou shalt not act like ole b*tch when things don’t go thine way. We call this b*tchassness.

Thou shalt not be a b*tchass for being a b*tchass is how ninjas get dead.

Similarly, thou shalt have thine homies back if the situation calls for it and your homie didn’t directly put you both in harms way by being a b*tchass.

In fact, thou shalt check thine b*tchassness at the door because real G’s do real things and thou cannot do real things if you got nuts in your mouth.  Or on your shoulder.

Thou shalt stay true to the game, respect the game, and treat the game like you want the game to treat you.  What is the game?  The game is whatever life you live.

Real motherf*cking G’s know the game.

Ladies, if you are dating a man who seems to be at odds with any of these rules, which come down to general respect for the next man, run like Hell, he just might get you killed.

PS: Women can replace all gender-specific wording with the opposite (i.e. hoes before bros, etc.) and the code should work.  Trifling heffas that don’t respect the code should be avoided at all costs because they WILL get you dead.

So what are some other G-Code rules that all men should abide by?  Hell, what are the She-Code rules?  I’m actually really curious about that one.

Sharing is caring and Panama cares.

The Pursuit of Happiness

Today we’re gonna do something a little different.  One of my boys and I were having a convo the other day and he was telling me I should write about a relationship-based convo we had out in LA last summer.  Now, I was drunk out of my mind so I only remembered parts of it, but in my genius, I said, “Hey, why don’t you write it.  You’re a good writer.  Make it happen.”  So today, I’m handing over VSB to another VSB, Maverick, to kick a one-off post that all men need to read.  Take heed to the words that he spit, because he drops nothing but gangster sh*t…

*************

Panama has allowed me to ramble a little bit and I want to use that privilege to help my fellow men across the world in their pursuit of happiness…

What is it that would make men happy, you might ask yourself. Well that is a good damn question. Being that I just made the big 3-0 the other day, I have had a few decades to ponder this question. In our youth, we think that it is stuff like money, fame, devilish good looks, a harem of Jet Beauties of the Week, etc. When you get in your 20′s, you think it is a job that you don’t despise going to each morning, a full head of hair, having less than 30 percent body fat, knowing that your 401-K didn’t lose 50 percent of its value, etc. But when you get to 30, you start to see the big picture…there is one thing and one thing only that really makes men happy. Not getting into constant, senseless arguments with women…


I always laugh when I watch the movie Baby Boy…especially the part where Omar Gooding says “I am not going to call you ladies ‘bi#$hes’…I am going to call you ‘unstable creatures’”. Pure comedy. But, other than calling any woman a b$%#h (which I completely disagree with), truer words were never spoken. Women are some unstable creatures…some of whom unleash a wrath comparable to God’s punishment of Job or Ike’s boot beating of Tina.

So true happiness is figuring out how to avoid this wrath. And I, ladies and gentlemen, have found the satisfaction guaranteed, fool-proof method to avoid confusion and confrontation with the female gender. The trick is to use one of these three phrases when you are staring down the eyes of a crazed woman…

  1. You’re right…my bad…
  2. I know…I apologize…
  3. That’s cool…I can wait…

What is funny is that I told women about this and they were like “this crap would never work…women are not going for that”. Three minutes after that was said, I tried it on someone and what do you know…eureka!!!! Why does it work so well??? Because women want to be right so bad, when you agree with them, they are in heaven. And when they are in heaven, we men are in heaven…


Though women say they don’t like drama…they love it. They covet it. They hold onto it so tight, that it is a diamond after they let it go. On the other hand, men will confront drama but we are a peace-loving people. Drama is our Kryptonite. Women will make statements like “oh, I don’t have any female friends…they are catty and always causing drama”. What dude have you ever heard say such a thing??? Empirical evidence shows that women are a thousand times more likely to start some drama than men are. With facts like these, men need to arm themselves with the weapons to combat drama…our happiness depends on it…


So the next time that your female friend from college says “all men are dogs…I can’t even stand looking at you”, you respond by saying “I know…I apologize” or “you’re right…my bad”. Even if the faux understanding does not get you to third base, it will alleviate all symptoms of drama and even bring a smile to your face at the ease of its implementation. When you approach your girlfriend about trying that new contortionist move that you saw on a Cinemax after-hours movie and she looks at you disgusted, just respond with “you’re right…my bad”…you might even be able to get away with “that’s cool…I can wait” if it seems like she thought about it for a second. Vary up your responses a bit and you will find that drama-free life is definitely in your future. Happiness is just around the corner…
