“These are text messages I exchange with my 17 year old cousin Bennett. He is a white boy that thinks he’s a crip, works at Amoco, has a girlfriend named Mercedes, and is one of the most unintentionally funny and brilliant souls on the planet. He has no idea I do this blog. Yes, this is 100% real.”

I wish Bennett would cc me on his texts. But wait a minute, it gets better; Bennett's cousin is Mac Lethal, and here he is responding to a request to do a rap about making pancakes.

In the words of theonetheonly55 "I wish to join this family, NOW. Just for pure enjoyment".

The internet skeptic in me crosses its fingers and hopes this is a brilliant marketing campaign.

This is Bennett:

Bennett. Don't go changin' man.
