2015 Awards

Welcome to the 2015 Cogitos, not being presented by Steve Harvey.  Big ups to Steve, #doe.  I would have just left but he went back out there.  Ballsy, bruh, but get off of the stage.

We, here at the Cogitos, didn't want to be too negative so we will give out cheers and jeers for a variety of random ass shit, sort of like the BET awards except we don't fuck with R Kelly.  Let's get it going.


The 'NiggaWhat?' award is for the person of any color, that did something so bizarre that it blew our staff's mind, yet this person continued to act like it wasn't bad at all.  The winner is... Ben Carson.

Ben Carson, for two weeks, while running for President, tried to convince America that he tried to stab a nigga.  You read that right.  That's why he gets the hardware.


'Athlete of the Year' Award goes to Serena Williams.  Sorry, Steph Curry, but high yellow niggas can't win everything.


The 'You Should Be Shot' award goes to people who really, really have shown no use for human progression.  This year's winner is Martin Shkreli.

This douche jacked up the price of a cancer/AIDS medicine by roughly 5000%, bought the sole Wu Tang album, then was promptly arreseted for running a ponzi scheme.  If he had a White cat, or a mole, he would be a real life Bond villain.  If he get's shot in the face tomorrow, no one will care, aside for the people he robbed... and maybe the RZA, because the RZA probably did that shit.


The '#StayWinning' award goes to whomever kept it moving in the light of fuckery all year.  It should be no surprise that this award goes to Black Twitter.

Between #BlackLivesMatter, #ThanksgivingWithBlackFamilies, #StayMadAbby and #TheWiz Black Twitter showed it's ass in a manner in which something with 'Black' and 'Twitter' in the name could only do.  On a personal note, management appreciates the fallback of random penises on our time line.  #BigUps


The 'Team of the Year' is the Kansas City Royals.  The Royals came back, came back and then at the end, they came the fuck back and won.  They did the opposite of "Stay Winning" and still fucking won.  An estimated 800,000 people showed up at their parade.  There are only 400,000 people living in Kansas City proper....'nuff said.


The 'Petty of the Year' goes to the kayak eating bear.  Turns out that bears don't appreciate you talking shit and using pepper spray on them... Good to know.  For those of you that don't know about our friend, here you go.  This year's winner


The 'How You do Dat?' award goes to my daughter because one night she convinced us to play with Doc McStuffins, in her closet, after a long day of work.  I still don't know how she pulled that off.


'Person of the Year' goes to Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman.  First, my man leaves jail on a motorcycle like a bad Sylvester Stallone movie, then he goes on the lamb, then proceeds to threaten Donald Trump and ISIS on TWITTER!  I'm starting to think El Chapo is the Obama I voted for.


These are our big winners.  Check your mail boxes everyone.  We aren't sending you shit but you should just check your mailboxes in general.

Also, we have some lesser awards that are also due.  Here are some ending credits.

Marshawn Lynch = 'Press Conference of the Year'  Keep telling them why you're here.

That Black Stripper at my cousins favorite strip joint = 'Reminding me that I'm a decent Husband' because single me would have gladly got all of that syphilis.  (They cure it with a shot, don't judge me.)

The Republican Party = 'Really Need to do Better'  A guy from reality TV is leading in your polls.  Do something or you will be lead by a Clinton or a Socialist...

Verysmartbrothas.com = 'Website of the Year'  Thank you guys for keeping the committee from working too hard.. or at all.

Last but not least,
 You = 'Thanks for reading'  My goal was 10k hits overall but I stalled at 8700 and I am pretty pleased.  Thanks for letting me share my public flip outs and nasty stories about Wonder Woman with you guys.  I feel like you don't love me if you don't know me.. I mean the committee... which is just me.  I promise more next year.  Be safe, kids.

Peace, Love and wanton abuse of punctuation - Cogito

Maury must be stopped. No one has profited more from Black people being ignorant than he.   I know the old saying: “Mama’s baby, Papa’s maybe.” But, contrary to popular belief, Black men love their children.   Everyone loves children.   Even if Black men realize that they aren’t bringing much to a household, they know that there is magic there.   That magic might be scary, like all magic, but it’s there.   There isn’t much difference between the love that develops between a man and a child with his D.N.A.   and a man that a child that he has raised. I am my father’s son.   No, I’m not light skinned or a hustler, but I laugh when I hear something funny.   I’ll sit on a porch and dink liquor all Saturday morning.   My toes are extraordinarily long (just like his).   I will see a beautiful woman and take notice just because I am a man and that’s what a man does.   My dad raised me well. When you see a Black man on Maury, y...

For my friends that considered suicide when having a nigga in your corner isn't enough

I remember wanting to die.  I didn't want to kill myself per se, I just wished that I could just go the fuck away.  I was a young, skinny teenager that wasn't looking forward to anything outside of video games.  What kind of life is that? But teenage life is always stupid.  When the lead actor is phoning it in, the play sucks.  That is teenage life in America.  I wish I could say that only teenagers go dark enough to want to die but we all know that is not true.  Life gets so much harder for people that dare to be an adult. As an adult, I get reminded of my younger years because shit still gets dark.  When I feel that kind of hopelessness, I still remember the fire that gets lit inside of me.  My ability to say "Fuck all of these people." is my super power.  It is a necessary tool for me.  When all the love I try to spread around begins to fail that flaming hatred for those that I let push me there always comes back.  Someh...

Code Cracked: LeBron

After LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers were swept by the Golden State Warriors my timeline was predictably filled with people arguing that LeBron couldn't possibly be the greatest of all time because he didn't fart rainbows or just will his team to victory. One of the most eyebrow raising post was of Michael Jordan celebrating another title.  I don't even remember what Mike was going on about but it made remember remember something about Mike that I had forgotten in all the Lebron comparisons: Mike was a complete asshole. Then, I got to thinking about Mike's heir (air) to the title of best in the game, Kobe.  Kobe wasn't brimming with personality but one thing that we should all agree on, is that he was also a fucking dick.  I specifically remember him ignoring Chris Rock on the sidelines like he was too focused to be funny. Then there's LeBron James.  Even when he has a team full of underachievers he has the nerve to pick up his purse and leave ra...
