What Sleek said

First Aid one: Tug and Run

When in a restaurant and a pretty young lady drops her fork and while bending over to pick it, she chips her pink fingernail, put down the chips-chaps laden fork ascending to your mouth, momentarily switch off all auditory receptors picking information from the lady you went with to the restaurant, stand up and with rambo-walking-into-a-village-full-of-villains-who-stole-the-girl-he-wanted-to-bone-but-had-no-game-to-do-so motions, head to the girl’s table. Reach for her finger. Eye contact is key. Wide-slightly-watery eyes are your cue to proceed.

This is your cue to back the fudge off

Slowly, deliberately, let out a drawl ‘ssooorrryyy preeettYy faaCcee’ and move her finger, ever-so-delicately, towards your lips. Stick the finger in your mouth and lick it in there’s-more-where-this-came-from motions. Pause. Take in her appreciation. Do not accept monetary thank-you’s. You may have missed that in English: DO NONT ACCEPUTI MONEY THANKI-YOUs. These will cheapen your act of benevolence. Stand as if to walk away. If she holds on to your hand a little longer, do these:

For 2 seconds longer: Turn and give her your number. Take hers also. Call it thrice as she reads it out. We can’t have her giving you her boda guy’s number

For 5 seconds longer:  This is a sign of aggression in the kingdom animalia, family philia, genus humania. Drop enough notes on the ground to cover your bill, tug your hand free and run.

First Aid two: Ring Ring

When at office and one of your workmates, after receiving a verbal attack for being spineless and having shitty work, collapses at his desk, here’s what to do. Rush them to a hospital dumbass! Be sure to whisper sweet, re-assuring things into their unconscious ear to massage their bruised ego. “Wamma your work is the shit, it isn’t dog shit”

Electricity

In March, the government will unveil its up-till-then top-secret plan to power the entire nation by providing power wheels to all households. Inspired by the heavy running done by hamsters, these wheels will allow members of a household to power their house simply by running.

We gat the power!

Naturally, this means that while some sit and watch TV, one person will have to do the running. Since ‘Going to the Gym’ is top on many people’s list of resolutions they won’t keep, this baby will deliver on that promise. Kipsiro’s household is excited.

Elections

Unlike last year, we will not have presidential elections this year.

Road discipline

Cars will still be driven on the left side of the road. This won’t change.

Weather

There will be rain on some days. And it will be hot on other days. And there will be even more rain on some other days.

Boda bodas

Boda boda riders will still ride like they are what popped out when Satan got a hand-job.

Man on the moon

Much as several hours will be spent toying with this idea we will not send a man to the moon.

Aliens

There will be an alien invasion. A few people will get anal probes

Happy new year. Stay Legendary

Anyway, one of the major challenges of being the friend from the village, I imagine, is that no one tells you how things in town work. No one is kind enough to sit you down and give you ‘the talk’. Luckily for you, I haven’t lost the soft, mushy, teary side of me yet. Friend from the village, here is how things in town work.

Tapped water

This is like water from the well, only that it comes to you. Imagine a well which you don’t have to go to…it comes to you! I know, neat uh? Only thing is, when done using it, you actually have to switch off the well. I know, weird! Tell me about it…anyway, so yeah, you use the well and then switch it off…and then walk away. You can’t stay there staring at it

This is pretty neat

TV

There’s this pretty neat thing that you press squiggly buttons on and voila, you see people doing all sorts of things! And I mean all…sorts…of…things (slow heavy wink). Pressing buttons is easy…picture yourself using your thumb to annihilate an overfed termite. So you press and suddenly you see small people inside it jumping around, and making noises like “…andutttuuuuuu…”

You’ll be shocked at first but trust me, when that wears off, you’ll be an addict. Now here’s the neat part…how do those people get in there? Well when people get to a certain age and feel they are ready, they go to China. There, they are fed a certain medicine and voila, they reduce to a certain height and can fit in your TV comfortable without fidgeting.

Food

Here in town, we don’t use hoes to get food…or whores for that matter. Ahhaha, I just made a joke. Ah my bad, forgot you wouldn’t get it. Ok, so here, we walk into places and pick the food off shelves and then pay for it…or pick it off the shelves and if no one notices, leave with it, promising yourself that you’ll return to pay when you have the money to pay for it.

Some uses of big bags

Pick-up lines

Here we don’t say ‘Herro, youaro burriful. Cum n wigo and you produce forr me samo beibes’ to a pretty girl as soon as we meet her. See here for tips.

Can't.Do.This

Strakiphobia: The fear of being left alone in a room with just enough electricity to power only the television set and with the TV having just enough Chinese functionality to display only one station,WBS and with that station broadcasting only one thing-re-runs of ‘the best of Straka’. Her in slow motion, the camera zooming in, her doing stunts, stunt doubles doing stunts as her, her doing curtwheels…the works.

Bodibodiphobia: The fear of taking a boda boda ride and getting to your destination, pulling out your note to pay and being told by the rider that he has no change; there is no one in sight save for a stray dog staring curiously at a crossword puzzle in an old newspaper on the ground

Raisophobia: The fear of asking your boss for a raise and being told that it will be given to you if you can run the marathon in under thirty minutes.

Iyanophobia: The fear of electricity going off just as you lay your clothes on the ironing table

Taxiphobia: The fear of the taxi not stopping when you tell it to…and dragging on several meters from the target spot even when you yelled ‘masaawo’ a whole 200 meters to the spot

Potipotiphobia: The fear of hitting a pothole and feeling the car gasp and your dinner from the previous night debate on whether to get re-launched into the world from the front or the back

Kalooliphobia: The fear of a kalooli shitting on you as you walk past Constitutional square, or (insert one of the gazillion places the birds nest)…

Queuephobia: The fear of being in a queue for two hours and getting to the front only to be told that you were supposed to be in a different queue altogether

localdophobia: The fear of going out with someone of the opposite sex only to discover how local they are.

Sport

The more athletic you are, the more popular you’ll be. If all sport fails, try thumb wrestling. No one will know how good you are at it till they see you beat everyone.  Thumb wrestle the conductor in the taxi when he asks for your fare. The driver even; do it when he stops to pick-up a female passenger in gladiator shoes and shades as she slowly moves to the parked taxi. It’ll take her twelve minutes. That is enough time for you to wrestle three wins from the taxi driver’s thumb.

What did you call me eh?

Hair

Do you know why Katt Williams and Donald Trump are so popular? India Arie lied. They are their hair. Get a funky hairstyle and you’ll be so popular, you’ll need a PA.

Right on!

The Doc

Have you noticed how popular doctors are? How girls in clubs scream themselves hoarse and throw panties at them yelping “OMGomgOMGomgOMG!! It’s the docturrr!!!!” (More panties) “The freakin doocctttuurrr!!! Treat me!!” (Hurling themselves at the doc)

I got the prick

You may want to strongly consider becoming one; overnight celebrity status awaits you.

Slow motion

There is no such thing as things slowing down enough for one to see a blow approach. In real life, real blows come at you very fast. One minute you are arguing, the next you are flat on the ground muttering some things about mars. No.Slow.Motion.

Not based on reality

Fights against many people are not always won by doing a single round kick

There’s always a scene in movies where the well-paid, well-known star is surrounded by a mob of angry people who all want to beat him/her up. He/she usually jumps and delivers a single round kick that fells all of them. There is no such thing in real life. In the real world, if you are surrounded by angry people, chances are you are going to be beaten-up and undressed. Or undressed and then beaten up.

Vampires and X-Men

These do not exist. Conductors with poor hygiene do. Thieving politicians do. Lady Gaga does. She does come close, but no, she isn’t an X-(wo)man. Vampires live forever. In the real world though, no one alive today was around when Shaka Zulu was going round impaling people.

Dental floss ad

Car chases

There’s always a fast-paced car chase in all movies worth putting on your eyeball schedule. For some reason, the speeding cars always go through markets and knock down stalls. In real life young friend, car chases end in mangled metal, broken limbs and death. When the police flags you down, do not say a bad word and speed off. Car chases are only rosy in the movies. Here, the first pothole will trap your vehicle.

Also, this is the last Massacre in this edition of ULK. Pre 4.11.11. In between the oil and black money, a lot has changed here at our headquarters. See you on Friday.

Undercover FBI agent

Ladies and gentlemen, it is possible that the young lady was an undercover FBI agent. Judging by her name (Bad Black?), her build, the energy she’d use when hurling huge bundles of notes at people, the nimbleness she had on dance floors and how much time she spent under covers, it is highly likely that this lady was trained by a top undercover outfit.  It is my submission, ladies and gentlemen, that she was on a covert mission to find out the effects of free crisp currency on a third world individual.

Genie

Many times folks upcountry come across oil lamps; many of these folks haven’t watched Aladdin or any of these awesome animated films that have genies in them so naturally, they don’t know how to react. Some kick them. Others rub them only twice. Latifah on the other hand, was a smart girl. After a hard day in the field tilling the land, she found an oil lamp and knew just what to do and how to do it. She rubbed the lamp so well, the genie moaned endlessly, begging her not to stop. He then offered her four wishes. She wished for world piece and ‘many money’. I have no idea what the other wishes were. As knowledgeable as I am on the matter, I wasn’t there dear reader.

Tada!! All that many money is yours

Road trade

Have you noticed how all our neighbors have better roads than us? Well it is possible that by day, Bad Black was a peaceful, sweet singing citizen with pigtails. By night however, she’d change into a black costume and export bits of our roads to neighboring nations. This explains why we have as many potholes as her dollar bills.

Maybe she worked hard. Have you stopped and thought about just how much you’d have if you worked very hard?  That ‘young’ lady is an icon; the true definition of ‘hard work pays’. When she gets out and pays me for setting the record straight, all your sniggering will stop. But my part is to look at all the possibilities; another legend has the 411…the real info. He talked to the horse’s mouth. He’ll publish the real stuff shortly.

Even the mandazi that Nansikombi brings in the morning was unusually oily. No one was physically hurt by the attack but the Streetsider now walks with a pimp stick, just in case. That said, I am here with the 411. The kashoogidemagwan. You may have heard rumors about 411.11. I now take you on a journey through history; what momentous events have taken place on this auspicious day?

4.11. 52 BC

Early man is hunting an antelope. He gains ground, hurls his spear and it misses but ruffles a lion that was stalking the same prey. Lion turns and chases early man. He runs, sees a dead-end, picks up a stone and hurls it at the lion. Stone misses lion, but hits a rock and the massive sparks cause a fire. Lion eats early man. His buddy who was watching all this uses the knowledge to take the props for ‘discovering fire’.

It is 4.11 innit?

4.11.1534

Prince charming is finally set to take on the dragon. He has ridden for 3 years, 9 months, 2 days to reach the castle where the princess he’s supposed to marry has been held captive by a vicious fire-breathing dragon. Brave man Prince charming, in his chunky armor and on his tired white horse.  He draws his sword and slashes the last bushes to the castle out of the way, all the time poised to jump off and stab the dragon. Bated breath. Bated breath.  He un-mounts his horse, Armagiddion. A screaming toddler runs into his shin, pauses, and runs off. Baffled, he follows the toddler into an opening. There, before his very own eyes, is princess-he-was-supposed-to-marry, not pretty anymore, but pretty pregnant. And with 3 rug rats running around. Turns out the dragon had died of a cold 2 years back, and she’d married the evil overLord, taken in his seed and brought forth the little cretins running around.

4.11.1845

Two slaves accidentally kiss while working on the plantation. Their massa doesn’t see this go down. They enjoy the stolen kiss and pursue matters further. Megan Good’s great great great grandparents are conceived.

4.11.1858

John Speke finds a lake surrounded by black people and goes ahead to discover it.

4.11.1969

Neil Armstrong takes a few normal steps on the moon and insists they are big leaps for mankind

4.11.1983

4.11.1998

Bill Clinton insists he did not have sexual relations with that woman.

4.11.2010

Mila Kunis does the first take of that scene in Black Swan. Her and her partner in the scene went on to do 15 takes, some off camera.

4.11.11

But then again, I’ve shared amazing soccer insights here before (click) but it seems no one listens to me. There’s a story about a Ugandan guy building a space shuttle…I think as a nation, we should put our general behind on that guy. When we finally get to space, we’ll kick alien ass…we’ll definitely beat them at soccer. Then, we’ll be Galaxy Champions. African champions ni nini? Sisi, Galaxy Champeyans!  I can already see the flashing neon lights and the grubby blue groupie hands of the 5-eyed fans… “Uganda: Soccer Kings of the Galaxy.” All you’d have to say on Mars to get laid is “I’m Ugandan” and then the 5-eyed, 3-armed blue beauty would drool and lead you to a private wing.

Can you imagine we are Ugandans' bitches now?

That said, my buddies at ULK have something big lined up for you in the next few weeks…you’ll forget all the heartbreak of failing to launch.  The elves are hard at work, heaving, flexing, and all will be unveiled shortly…Keep your eyes peeled. Not teary.

You see, Sleek was sent on a reconnaissance mission early last month. He was sent behind enemy lines. He studied the opponent thoroughly and using the ninja skills he gained during his time with the secret Shenzhen midgets in 1925, he collected information about the soon-to-be-whooped neighbors.  He published some of his findings here: click  click

They were nice to him when he was there; showed him their clubs, offered him chang’aa, made passes at him… they didn’t know he was a scheming snake. Below, I present to you stuff that we are going to use to take down the poor Kenyans. They talk real fast so I’ve typed this out very slowly, in a Ugandan way, so they won’t be able to read it.

Nyama Choma

Kenyans love nyama choma. We are going to feed their goal-keeper several pieces of roast meat. When we are done with him, he should only be able to look left or right by turning his entire body.

Belly dancers from MUK

Makerere University re-opened recently so the nation’s load-shedding has increased to allow more electricity to be sent to the students. They really read those ones. But when they let their hair down, it goes all the way to the ankles. That is to say they have very skilled belly-dancers in that university. While the Kenyan soccer team is being ushered into a hotel to have their last night of peaceful sleep before several nights of nightmares about their ass-whoopage follow, we’ll send some belly dancers their way. Accustomed to Sharia law in their country, they’ll be overwhelmed. They’ll sit and watch the show all night. Of course the hotel staff will have a hard time cleaning up all the drool and other body excretions the next day.

Uganda Waragi

Kenya has alcohol curfew so as soon as the team crosses the border, they’ll be thirsty. We’ll present the spirit that blinds us, Ug Waragi. They’ll sip excitedly, pocketing sachets even, all the while thinking about how they’ll sell them back at home.

The last trick up our sleeves is our superior soccer skills. While our neighbors excel at running long distances, they are not so good at kicking soccer balls since it is hard to kick a ball while running a long distance. You can’t do both. Think about it; Did Pele ever win any 10km races?  Did Haile Gebrselassie lift any world cups? Our neighbor has somehow never realized it.
