Hi! Everyone I have this story to share with you all, it all took place when I was around 16 and living with my parent's. I developed this hobbie of collecting pictures of Prince from where ever I could find them, I must of had around 100 posted around my room including albit covers ect... one of my favorite was the pic from the Controversy albit which was right above my headboard. My parents come home and have a heart attach of course! Mom said take it down immediately so I did I stuck it up on the ceiling right above my bed funny ha! soon they learned they were fighting a useless fight and let it stay up there until my then boyfriend came around. He started asking what's up with all the Prince pic's I said I really dig his music and we had the biggest argument that day he was like you have to take all the pictures down I said you have to leave. Then it got even nastier yall I'm talking it came to the point where he ripped down every last one of the pic's and put them in a bag and was yellin and screaming. Anyways as he was ripping them down off the walls I started to hyperventelate, I was about to faint so he had to stop what he was doing and he went to get a paper bag for me and I used it to breath in until I was felt better, I thought that would buy me some time but no, he ran out with the bag as soon as he knew I was feeling better and I was like where are you going he said I'm going to burn them I thought yea! right. I'll find the trash can and have my pic's back in no time, ha! about 20 minuets later I heard fire trucks outside about a block or two away and I knew it was all over, need I say more all of my pic's were gone, man I had some good one's too I surely miss them. Can anyone relate to this story and there past crazy mates hateing on you likeing Prince.

Sorry yall, I did'nt metion that it was the poster inside the Controversy albit, you know with him in the shower with that skimpy baithing suit bottom. "SO SEXY!"

Whenever somebody isn't into concerts or going to Prince shows I don't even bother because since I dig his music and have his posters up in my bedroom well if you aren't into him it's just not gonna fly with me. Ex's Know all too well never to Poo-Poo on my Concert behavior or say something Anti-Prince.Lest they find their Asses on the Porch for good. Several I threw out of my house and 1 guy was catching a rap and said Prince was a fag so I told him to Drop Dead! They have to Know Better or they are Dead before they even start.

Well, no direct link 2 Prince, but it reminds me when eye put horror movies posters on EVERY cm of my bedroom's walls. Eye was 12 & my mom got mad & ordered me 2 take'em away because there were 2 much. This eye did, & eye left only some of it, including a HUGE pic of Freddy Krueger. Dis 1 survived a few months 'til 1 day my mom got drunk & she scratched it !!!

As 4 my past girlfriends, it's kind of a test 2 me when eye c if they like Prince or not, 4 eye know eye lissen 2 Prince & other funk stuff 2 much so some1 who don't like it will just go mad. Thanx God my present girlfriend likes stuff like Emancipation or One Nite Alone. 4 now hard-funk stuff like Batman or 1999 is a bit 2 violent 4 her, but eye'm not losin' hope...

Oooh, that is scarry, cuz if that had been my Prince stuff burning up, old boy would have met with the same fate!

Ok, your boyfriend did what to your goldfish with a spatula???...I lost track...

That wasn't scary.It'd have worked if you ran outside when you heard the firetrucks, and mysteriously you boyfriend had burnt to a crisp, and all the fire Dept were toasting marshmallows on him, but your pictures were perfectly fine.

O.K. Wellbeyond this is what I have to say to you if you got lost you should have pressed rewind, if you were'nt interested you should'nt of responded thankyou, NEXT!!! Cherryloon I liked you senerio it made me laugh, but I have to say it was scary to me but would'nt that have been wild if it did happen your way? And eventhough all of that happen that day I got him back later in the worst way.
