The other day I was traveling down Washington St. here in Jamestown. I happened to glance out of the driver’s side window of my friend’s car. My gaze landed on a couple walking up the hill with what looked like their three year old daughter well pushing a baby stroller. After watching this family interact with each other for a bit I noticed the, I am assuming, father had on an ICP t-shirt on. After further examination of the group I realized that not only was the father sporting an ICP shirt but also every one of them had some sort of ICP shirt. Yes, even the children had shirts on that dealt with ICP. That being the case, that made for my first interaction with a Juggalo family. For all those who don’t know what ICP is or what a Juggalo is I have used wikipedia to help explain.
Insane Clown Posse is an American hip-hop duo from Detroit, Michigan. The group is composed of Joseph Bruce and Joseph Utsler, who perform under the respective personas of the wicked clowns Violent J and Shaggy 2 Dope. Insane Clown Posse performs a style of hardcore hip hop known as horrorcore and is known for its elaborate live performances. The duo has earned two platinum and three gold albums. According to Nielsen SoundScan, the entire catalog of the group has sold 6.5 million units in the United States and Canada as of April 2007.[1]
Originally known as Inner City Posse, the group introduced supernatural- and horror-themed lyrics following a vision in one of Joseph Bruce's dreams resembling a traveling carnival. The duo founded the independent record label Psychopathic Records with Alex Abbiss as manager, and produced and starred in the feature film Big Money Hustlas. They formed their own professional wrestling federation, Juggalo Championship Wrestling, and later collaborated with many famous hip hop and rock musicians.
The themes of Insane Clown Posse and other acts on Psychopathic Records center on the mythology of the Dark Carnival, which the duo claim is a spiritual force that has revealed a series of stories known as Joker's Cards. These stories each offer a specific lesson designed to change the "evil ways" of listeners before "the end consumes us all." Insane Clown Posse has a dedicated following, often referred to by the group as Juggalos and Juggalettes. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insane_Clown_Posse
Juggalo or Juggalette (the latter more commonly used for a female) is a name given to Insane Clown Posse, Psychopathic Records artists, their friends, family, and fans. Juggalos view their group as one based on a common philosophy, derived from the Dark Carnival, a fictional mythology that was carried as a theme in six Insane Clown Posse albums known collectively as the 6 Joker's Cards. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Juggalo
I have provided links if you desire to read more.
Now after reading all of this I am in shock that they have sold that many records but at the same time not all to surprised after thinking about how I just saw a family of Juggalos. I personally cannot stand this group and I am just shocked and amazed at the dedication of there followers, Juggalos. People really do amaze me. Juggalo family… wow. I believe if you listen to the group you will more then likely feel the same way I do.
Also, having nothing to do with what I was just talking about… I believe and I am under the impression that the minuet that Barry Manilows album, Ultimate Manilow was released my mom has had it in her CD or cassette player and on repeat. Also can only listen to it if everyone in the house can hear it.

4. The Helen Keller twitter page... http://twitter.com/Helen_Keller
5. When people try and tell me how something works when they themselves have no clue.
6. This blog... http://fuckyoupenguin.blogspot.com/

To Start It All Off...
I have created this blog to share what I find funny/strange. It may be stories from something that has happened to me, something I found on the internet, something someone said/did, or just the random B.S. that goes though my head that keeps me going through the day. I don't plan on using this to bitch about things that happen to me although it may happen every now and then. Like right about now. Some of that, if not all, or most of that bitching will probably have to deal with one of the fallowing, this list is subject to change and is in no particular order other then they piss me off and/or confuse me...
There are other things that I don't understand in this world such as the three listed above, they may appear on here one day.
On another note, sometime I may find it necessary to put music up on there. I may find a band that I like and believe that whom ever is reading this should check out. I wouldn't do it the entire time do to the fact that I do not want this to be one of those blogs.
Also, I CAN'T SPELL WORTH SHIT. I am already well aware of this fact and I don't need any remind of it so please if you could refrain from correcting my miss spellings I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you very much.
I'm going to try and update this as often as possible but who knows.
Lastly I will end this post with this commercial. It made my day yesterday, and I hope you enjoy it. Its the newest Mighty Taco TV advertisement. Go to the link...

1. Hummers - Why, why, why in the world would you drive one of those around town? Do you not notice the money that is draining out of your pocket do to gas consumption? Also, did I mention there pointless when you live in an urban neighborhood and not in the desert and or Hamelin Mountains? It's like three miles to the gallon with those things!
2. Tribal/Armband Tattoos - More then likely you are not in a tribe of any sort, so what in God's good name would posses you to get that. You may be a very nice and cool person, but me oh my, your screwing up hardcore. If you are in a tribe I am sorry, this does not apply to you. By some chance, if some how, a tribal design tattoo and/or armband tattoo design has meaning to you, good for you, you still look like a tool.
3. Girls Wearing Timberland Boots - It's weird! Please stop. My personal opinion is that it doesn't and never will look good. It’s just how I feel about it. Please knock it off.
