LOL

Don't do ecstacy and train, imo...

I actually thought it was worth listening to.. He may be a complete prick, but at least he is humble enough to admit he takes a lot of shit, even simple shit, for granted. It's not the most deep, insightful thing I've ever heard, but I wouldn't say I think LOL is fitting, either Just think, that little rambling could have influenced someone to do something positive!

I'm going to agree with Funk on this one. I'm no fan of Diddy's music, but he makes a fine point in this video blog entry. Maybe it's not the most clearly or eloquently stated thing that's ever come out of his mouth, as it's kind of a brain dump. The point, however, is entirely valid, and one that more people should take time to reflect upon.

Maybe when you're his age, you'll understand.

I made that realization, like 99% of the rest of the world around age 3.

It's not so much the realization that you are able to do those things, but the ability to take a step back and truly appreciate the things that everyone takes for granted day to day.

I get it Funk. I'm not trashing Mr. Combs. I found it amusing to hear a grown up speak of childish revelations. His deep thoughts are the thoughts of a teenager. Maybe he was so busy touring the world making music and tons of money to slow down and think of such things. If that's the case, then I'm jealous.

I don't think that you do get it. His point has nothing to do with the fact that he has legs or that he's able to use them to move around. His point is that we take so many things for granted. Our lives, our health, our friends, our families or the fact that most of us can go buy a little luxury without having to sweat the cost too much. We get so wrapped up in our day to day problems that we often forget how special those "little things" are. That's not something most teenagers or even most adults really recognize. How many people go to their graves wishing they'd spent more time pausing to smell the flowers, so to speak? How many wish they'd spent more time with their loved ones? How many wish they hadn't wasted so much time worrying about how bad they have it when so many others have it so much worse?

That's just it. I guess this resonates with me more because my grandpa died a few weeks ago and I have been really down on myself about the amount of time I spent with him these last few months.

It's too bad it usually takes something like that to remind you just how important things like this are.

I really do get it. I don't need your repeated explanations. I get it. Those deep thoughts were the things I went through went I was a teenager. During a time of innocence and lots of expendable time for such thought. As kids, marriage, 70 hour work weeks came into play the time for such thoughts don't exist and are not productive. I wish I was as sucessful as Mr. Combs and could afford to spend time thinking about things like that. Again, I repeat, I'm not trashing him. I found it amusing. I'm sorry you needed to take it so seriously. I'm sorry about your grandfather Funk. I've lost 2 of my 4 grandparents so far. As you lose people you do tend to do some reflecting.

Thanks. I have also. I have been trying to think of how my mom must feel no longer having either of her parents, so I try to think about both of mine being gone and it just makes me sick to my stomach. I have had more death in my family and friends than I think most people by my age, and I guess I always thought it would get easier, but it never really does.

Midnyte, as a teenager, if you were reflecting on how you take all those kinds of things for granted, I'll eat my hat. People should take time to reflect on things like this often because it touches on what's really important in life. Thinking that a bit of introspection is unproductive speaks volumes about you, although it doesn't reveal anything that most of us haven't already gleaned about you previously. And don't tell me how you're so busy with all the challenges of life for it. You spend too much time on this board alone for that claim to have any credibility. You know what they say about an unexamined life...

Also, I know where you're coming from, Funk. My paternal grandmother died 10 years ago after a long, slow decline with Alzheimer's. I was really hard on myself at the time for not spending more time with her when I had the chance, especially before her mental state started getting really bad. Now my maternal grandfather is going through the same thing, and even though I've always spent a lot more time with this grandfather, I regret not spending more. It's all too easy to get caught up in the day-to-day crap we all focus on, rather than the truly important stuff.

Midnyte doesn't like P. Diddy, because he's black.

There's my troll. The color of a person's skin is not important to me. You may conitnue to label me as such if you must, but it is not true.

I don't care for him though. But, it's because every hit has been a remake of a true artist who "created" their music. Plus he's a scumbag.

Diddy is a very intelligent and cunning business person. Dismissing musical talent because he samples is ridiculous, imo. He can be a prick, but it's funny, and mostly for show. I personally think you are off base here.

I'm pretty certain the CEO of Enron is a very intelligent and cunning business person. Why can't Mr. Combs be a very intelligent and cunning business person and also be a scumbag?

I know man, thinking about things, it's very time consumable and stressful. It must take you hours to form even simple thoughts such as the above. Then again, you don't really have to think before you post, since it's all the same self-elevating garbage. You're a moron, and you prove it with comments like "i wish I had time to think about things."


For everyone else, I think it's quite healthy to occasionally reflect on the things that you have to be grateful for, as much of humanity only thinks about the things they don't.

Nice troll.

The internet's awesome. I can find the room to say that P Diddy is a worthless no nothing fuckwit who has never achieved anything other than to delude a lot of moronic fucking idiots that his shitty products are worth buying - and at the same time I don't have to watch his retarded youtube video.

Win win situation.

Now to watch the people who have nothing better to do than defend a moron like P Diddy. .... it could be you!

Don't confuse defending the guy's remark with defending the guy. I'm no fan, and wouldn't give a rat's ass if he was run over by a bus tomorrow. There are plenty of legitimate reasons to talk all kinds of smack about him, but this video isn't one of them, imo.

The "deep" thoughts expressed by P Diddums in this video are revelations of wisdom and enlightenment we usually get at a young age.

Good for him that he finally realized not to take things for granted, albeit a bit late.

Either way, dude is rich and worth a lot of millions, so he can talk as much ghetto and put as many silly vids on the net as he wants.

Dude is making moolah and i'm certain many kids and youngsters today want to be Pa Daddums.

He may not come off as a rocket scientist/genious but who cares, he is intelligent enough to make millions thanks to his "wonderful" voice and "superb" beats/rhymes (the brainless younger generation who buys his epic and classic masterpieces/records).

Hilarious vid btw.

I hope the rest of the rappers follow suite.

Let's hear some new revelations and enlightenment on the tube!

I'M RUNNING!

I was running today and I thought to myself, "Man, I'm running." Then I thought to myself, "Wait a second, I'm too fucking lazy to run." Then I thought to myself, "Man, I'm flying. I mean I'm really flying!" Then thought to myself, "People can't fly." And I fell. Then I looked at my fingers and thought, "Man, I'm running." [/sarcasm]

Sean has the eloquence of a 12 year old, or a pot head... One of the two.

No one said it was eloquent, just that somewhere in all that rambling he makes a valid point. It's certainly not a brilliant new revelation that no one has ever considered before (he doesn't seem to be claiming otherwise). While it's something that virtually all of us know on a fundamental level, how many people lose sight of it in their lives? Maybe it doesn't apply to everyone, but I think that most people would do well to spend a little more time genuinely appreciating the really important things in their lives, and reflecting upon how good their lot in life really is compared to most other people with whom we share this planet.

and people call me emo? *puke*

If thinking that it's important to recognize and appreciate the important people and things in your life is emo now, then I guess so. At least I didn't cry at the conclusion of Californication last year, pussyboy.

Like a baby.

He does not make a valid point. He fucking babbles like a teenager on acid. You all are delving into his 'wisdom' ...god help you all. What a fucking rich moron.

Having a lot of wealth/riches and making crap music justifies it [spreading "wisdom" on the 'tube] for the younger generation!
