Yes and "whats with" this new and suddenly common use of "frickin'" all the time. I thought I invented that.


Perhaps you're not aware of the new Austin Powers movie, you frickin' idiot?

I consider "fam" to mean short for family. Are we not a "Prince Fam-ily" so to speak? If I call myself a fam, it is because I have attached some sort of meaning to it. If you would like to sit on your soapbox, then go ahead. But you might take a moment and think that you might be wrong in some cases. Maybe you should try asking "Fams" what it means to them and why, instead of assuming that we are all clones in what we feel and the way we act.

Prince stands on the pulpit of the egg shaped watch tower and proclaims his rightiousness:

My sheeplike followers, we have gathered hear 2day 2 get thru this thing called my insanity. THRU when added with T becomes TRUTH when anagramonised. So we r gathered here 2day 2 get TRUTH this thing called my insanity. IN-san-IT-y! When broken down becomes IN IT. Eye used 2 do IT all the time, ALRIGHT! But now eye am IN IT all the time ALRIGHT!

As children of the RAINbow, we must rise. Can u have RAIN in ur bow? Was RAINman insane? DUSTin HoffMAN played RAINman. DUST is in the MAN who had RAIN! So all the RAINbow children must b DUSTy men! That is y we must go 2 the digiTAL GARDen. TAL GARD can b kind of word-played into TAILGUARD. This is an Americanism for BUMPER, as they say in EngLAND - or BUMPERLAND. So eye summise that the DigiTAL GARDen is in BUMPERLAND.

I there4 implore all the DUSTy men 2 go 2 BUMPERLAND 2 get TRUTH this thing called my IT. AlRIGHT!

Eye hope that has cleared up a phew! questions. Now FAMS of the world, get DUSTy and head 4 the land of BUMPER! 4 it is there that eye will give you my downloads and four or more CDs. Incidently, CD can b pronounced SEEDY. That is y eye am making lots of crap! 4 my SEEDS will grow in the CRAP eye make, and u, my DUSTy BUMPERS will rise with my membership fee!

this is funny! & it looks like a good example of what Prince wastes his time doing, instead of making the type of music he's capable of..

the initial thread is well written & quite on point. I have nothing against anyone who wants to call themselves a "fam"..
I simply don't see the purpose of it, it does seem to preclude the concept of "individuality" (isn't that another word that Prince has so profoundly dissected?)

goodness..
I'll see you tonight..
in ALL MY DREAMS..

I think this topic would have been much better if you had replaced the word "fam" with "freaks", because that's what I hear some of you describing...it certainly doesn't depict me or any of my friends and we are "Fams".


Berry this is my point, but I think that you have have been looking at this thread personally instead of generally. I'm sure that you are not a raving fanatic, but I'm also sure that you know that there are many of them out there.

So please stop thinking that I am accusing you of this so called "freak" behavior.

The word "fam" itself is not the problem, but the fact is that most of these raving "freaks" refer to themselves as "fams" which associates other normal well behaved people with them.

That said I still can't stand the word "fam"

Peace out.

Our Prince who art in Paisley
OTAN B thy name
Once king of cum
The cussings done
In the songs that r no longer clever.
Sell us this day our crappy download
and give us our laminate passes
as we forgive those who laminate ahead of us
lead us not into carnivorism
and deliver us to cereal
for thine is the Princedom, the show-off and the boring
4 eva and eva,
Carmen.


Smooth smoothie.
