Idiot of the Day: Socrates Edition

"Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and to remove all doubt" - ancient Chiss proverb.  


If you want to see stupidity on display, check out Tariq Adbul-Tawwab Skyhook as he spouts more nonsense on Socrates Garrett's podcast (with commentary by Clay Edwards).  You can't make this up.  


Newsflash to Skyhook: The Secretary of State filing has absolutely nothing to do with how you run your business.  A grocery store is under no obligation to operate a deli or provide other services.  As for prices being higher, guess what? Those are convenience stores.  Guess what convenience stores have? Higher prices.  Duh.   

Yes, Mr. Prado has bought gas stations on Briarwood, Old Canton Road, and Northside Drive.  The Briarwood gas station by Ridgewood Road is a perfect example of how they are run.  

The gas station was run down, frequented by bums who loitered with their tall boys.  The news  reported an armed robbery every so often.  In short, it was a seedy place.  Mr. Prado's team comes in, repaints the building, installs new flooring, cleans everything out, and makes it more comfortable for customers. 

 The broken chain link fence was replaced with a nice iron fence that doesn't allow the bums to do their thing behind the building as they did in the past.  Overgrown vegetation was removed. Staff aren't afraid to call the police to run off the bum..  In short, a community eyesore was turned into a community asset.  Such treatment is representative of his other stores.  Unfortunately, such niceties escape the Skyhooks of Jackson as some people are pigs who prefer to live in slop.   

However, Abdul-Tawwab was just getting warned up as he shrieked about Prado gentrification.  Oh yes, that is what he calls it when a developer buys a long abandoned McRaes building on Meadowbrook Drive and turns into a mixed use project that will benefit the community.    Somehow that is bad for Jackson but then again, we are dealing with Lumumba logic.  Only in Lumumba logic can building something nice on a blighted property be considered bad.  

These broke-dick you know what's don't do anything, can't do anything, but somehow reserve the right to make everyone else's life miserable.  Skyhook and his crew were in charge of Jackson for eight years yet how many developments did they land?  T

This is the same crew that raised hell when Mr. Chapman was going to develop part of University Boulevard.  The community loudmouths, otherwise known as activists, made demand upon demand on the developer until he said screw it and walked away.   They raised hell about David Watkins never mind he created the beautiful Pinnacle Building while rehabbing the King Edward Hotel and Standard Life building.  

How many developments has the Black Power crowd created?  Someone comes in and invests in Jackson when everyone else with capital runs away yet somehow he is the bad guy?  Such thinking is a perfect example of how Jackson got into its current mess.  

Of course, they never ask where are the black developers or investors. Such is how the Equity Crowd thinks.  Their idea of equity is to bring everyone else down to their level in the mud and that, my friends, is the bottom line.  


Note: Skyhook? The Kingfish ripped the nickname off of El Rushbo, who referred to Somali warlord Salman Abedi Mohammed Salman as Salman Abedi Mohammed Salman Skyhook.

Something to consider when you see a name like this Tariq Nasheed whatever. . It’s incredible how few people have ever taken literally 30 minutes to read up on this subject. Muslims in the Middle East and black Muslims in Africa, they are Muslims. Even black here that are Sunni. Whatever your opinion is of that, they are authentically, genuinely Muslim. Nation of Islam, on the other hand, is some idiosyncratic, beating on drums, we wuz kangs jibberish created in 1930 Detroit by a con man/check forger/identity thief in order to sell memberships and “sacred cloths” to illiterate blacks arriving from the Deep South. The belief system is only Muslim go the extent it supports a totally made up world view. Moreover, he was either white, Turkish, Greek, Iranian, or possibly Afghani. Difficult to know exactly due to the number of identities he used, documents forged etc. Almost centrally not black. So when you see some Nation of Islam new Africa whatever name like this, understand they are insane and their opinion can’t be taken seriously beyond the sky is blue

Broadmoor used to be all white. Now it's mostly black and it's mostly shit. Habitat is rehabbing houses in that neighborhood and they are being "sold" to mostly single black women with a bunch of kids. Is returning Broadmoor into a habitable neighborhood considered gentrification?

They simply want to be in charge. Even if they are going nowhere they did the driving and they expect to get paid for driving. Even if they drive the city to hell, they get paid for driving. Get paid even if it's reckless driving. That's what they want. Very simple.

Then why does Skyhook live in a mostly white gated subdivision that benefits from being not far from one of the Prado stations?

This further proves that Amazon needs to stop selling podcasting equipment. There’s no way these idiots are making money off this podcast. How many listeners? 2?

Side note: the Don Gabriel “Family Stations” actually are bullshit. They are weird as hell and packed to brim full of barely legal vapes and kratom and hookah and cbd bullcrap. What kind of crowd does that draw? Certainly don’t need the one across from Highland Village or the one on Lakeland Dr.. Just weird. Prado doesn’t get it. We don’t want that or “Dubai Gift” next to Brent’s Drugs.

Mr. Kingfish could you elaborate on this more I am 30 years old I wasn't around when this was happening could you explain the history of what you saying above?

can we get another blogger’s note about wtf a “chiss proverb” is? or were you just being a retard again?

Yes, let’s put a counterfeit designer purse shop in one of the few spots in Jackson that could probably support an authentic designer purse shop. Either he doesn’t have a clue or if he’s intentionally trying to cheapen Jackson to juice his Ridgeland developments.

Trollfest '09

Trollfest '07 was such a success that Jackson Jambalaya will once again host Trollfest '09. Catch this great event which will leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Othor Cain and his band, The Black Power Structure headline the night while Sonjay Poontang returns for an encore performance. Former Frank Melton bodyguard Marcus Wright makes his premier appearance at Trollfest singing "I'm a Sweet Transvestite" from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." Kamikaze will sing his new hit, “How I sold out to da Man.” Robbie Bell again performs: “Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be Bells” and “Any friend of Ed Peters is a friend of mine”. After the show, Ms. Bell will autograph copies of her mug shot photos. In a salute to “Dancing with the Stars”, Ms. Bell and Hinds County District Attorney Robert Smith will dance the Wango Tango.

Wrestling returns, except this time it will be a Battle Royal with Othor Cain, Ben Allen, Kim Wade, Haley Fisackerly, Alan Lange, and “Big Cat” Donna Ladd all in the ring at the same time. The Battle Royal will be in a steel cage, no time limit, no referee, and the losers must leave town. Marshand Crisler will be the honorary referee (as it gives him a title without actually having to do anything).


Meet KIM Waaaaaade at the Entergy Tent. For five pesos, Kim will sell you a chance to win a deed to a crack house on Ridgeway Street stuffed in the Howard Industries pinata. Don't worry if the pinata is beaten to shreds, as Mr. Wade has Jose, Emmanuel, and Carlos, all illegal immigrants, available as replacements for the it. Upon leaving the Entergy tent, fig leaves will be available in case Entergy literally takes everything you have as part of its Trollfest ticket price adjustment charge.

Donna Ladd of The Jackson Free Press will give several classes on learning how to write. Smearing, writing without factchecking, and reporting only one side of a story will be covered. A donation to pay their taxes will be accepted and she will be signing copies of their former federal tax liens. Ms. Ladd will give a dramatic reading of her two award-winning essays (They received The Jackson Free Press "Best Of" awards.) "Why everything is always about me" and "Why I cover murders better than anyone else in Jackson".

In the spirit of helping those who are less fortunate, Trollfest '09 adopts a cause for which a portion of the proceeds and donations will be donated: Keeping Frank Melton in his home. The “Keep Frank Melton From Being Homeless” booth will sell chances for five dollars to pin the tail on the jackass. John Reeves has graciously volunteered to be the jackass for this honorable excursion into saving Frank's ass. What's an ass between two friends after all? If Mr. Reeves is unable to um, perform, Speaker Billy McCoy has also volunteered as when the word “jackass” was mentioned he immediately ran as fast as he could to sign up.


In order to help clean up the legal profession, Adam Kilgore of the Mississippi Bar will be giving away free, round-trip plane tickets to the North Pole where they keep their bar complaint forms (which are NOT available online). If you don't want to go to the North Pole, you can enjoy Brant Brantley's (of the Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance) free guided tours of the quicksand field over by High Street where all complaints against judges disappear. If for some reason you are unable to control yourself, never fear; Judge Houston Patton will operate his jail where no lawyers are needed or allowed as you just sit there for minutes... hours.... months...years until he decides he is tired of you sitting in his jail. Do not think Judge Patton is a bad judge however as he plans to serve free Mad Dog 20/20 to all inmates.

Trollfest '09 is a pet-friendly event as well. Feel free to bring your dog with you and do not worry if your pet gets hungry, as employees of the Jackson Zoo will be on hand to provide some of their animals as food when it gets to be feeding time for your little loved one.

Relax at the Fox News Tent. Since there are only three blonde reporters in Jackson (being blonde is a requirement for working at Fox News), Megan and Kathryn from WAPT and Wendy from WLBT will be on loan to Fox. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag. Bringing both and a torn-up Obama yard sign will entitle you to free drinks served by Megan, Wendy, and Kathryn. Get your tickets now. Since this is an event for trolls, no ID is required. Just bring the hate. Bring the family, Trollfest '09 is for EVERYONE!!!

This is definitely a Beaver production.
