Dear White People....

Interesting. Not sure how I feel about this. The "this is not what Black people are" theme seems kind of tired to me. Only because its usually the same nonviolent, pseudo intellectual witty reply that really doesn't change anything. Violence may not be the answer either but just for my own peace of mind of LOVE to see a movie where the Black folk stop being so cool about things and start seriously reacting to the nonsense. It's 2012 and everyone knows better. Take off the kid gloves.....

Extreme feelings towards us black guys...

It would seem that either they love us like the woman above or you react to us like this....


or even worst like this.(NSFW)

Shanda Says, Women and Friendships! Can We Get Along?

Always an intersting topic...

Story Time.....

I ripped this from one of my online "resources sites"....I.E a spot to get everything from free porn to movies and comics. Read this and please chime in.

Ok. I've been dating this chick for a month now, and she's as bad as can be. She cooks, cleans (without being asked to), is on the same mental and gets me in every way possible, is an accounting major Yes, the sex is off the chain too, but I digress.

Now, before me she was in a 6 year relationship with her baby's father (she's 21, the baby is 2) but like a lot of good women, she took up with a douche bag loser and thought she could change his permanent short life spanned loser ass. To make matters more interesting, he's a Laotian chink, which kind of makes sense seeing how on that side of the world they're good for... Rice.

*THE POINT, FOR YOU NON READING DRAMA QUEEN MUTHAFUCKAS*

Anyway... When I first met the loser, I gave him the look and the power handshake so he'd know he wasn't dealing with no bitch. But yesterday when we were moving out the last of her stuff from the attic and were almost done, this idiot started telling his son to say curse words. Then he tried to get the kid to say "mommy's a bitch" in Laotian. His dumb ass is either really stupid, or he forgot that my girl speaks the language. So she went off, which is what he was trying to get her to do anyway because he's mad she left his ass and is with me. So the ignoramus turns to me and is like "man, see how she tripping? This is what you're in for, bro." So I tell him "Man it ain't cool for you to be teaching your son to curse, especially to call his mother a bitch." That's when he says to me "you trying to give me parenting tips in my own house bro? Man you don't know me bro, I'll get my strap." I was like what? and started laughing, so he like "you laughing at me in my own house, nigga?" That set me off, because nobody calls me a nigga, especially no chink who's more NIGGER than most ignorant people.

So I said "ok' in a "I got you" voice, went and took the last box to my car and grabbed my steel bat (he was washing dishes the whole time, never moved from the kitchen) and was about to go wail on his ass, but my common sense prevailed and told me

A: There's a baby in the house, by his feet actually.
B: It's just words, you have a good life, don't throw it away on *a loser who is about to be stripped of EVERYTHING he holds dear.
C: You know where he lives and works, catch him on neutral ground.

So I put it back and told her to come on. The more I thought about it though on the way home, the more I had to laugh. because she talked like he was some badass, but for a guy who stands 5 inches taller than me and outweighs me by about 30 pounds... He had to say "before I get the strap?"
You that much of a bitch in your heart that you got to threaten to get a gun on a guy smaller than you?

Anyway, he's about to find out today just how much power I have over his life. Sunday I had her cut the power off, cut off date: today because it was in her name (they broke up 2 months ago).
Today she's filing change of address forms to show proof that she no longer lives there, because yesterday the landlord refused to take her name off the lease. if he gets evicted, she can sue the baby daddy for her half of the lease because she has documented proof that she no longer resided there.
Tomorrow she's filing for child support and her taxes so he can't get any of the money from his son (he threatened to take all the tax money the other day, but the dumbass doesn't even know his own sons or her SS#).

He can barely rent and car payments now, imagine what it's going to be like with child support payments.

Anyway, the nigger Laos doesn't scare me, and no she's not fucking him on the sly. If you've ever heard a chick talk about an ex they can't stand, then you'd know. If it wasn't for the baby, they'd have zero communication.

After the Jump get a sample of the "colorful" replies that other forum memebers dropped on this situation.

.......A test of will.

It's 12:14am. I have had a Dell Tech Support rep remotely working on my infected laptop since about 7:15pm. 5 straight hrs of work. At this point I'm waiting for him to give up and start talking about getting my laptop replaced/upgraded.

My Bad on the Vlogs....Technical difficulties

A well timed virus has knocked out my laptop which is my main blogging tool. I can't connect to the internet so while I handle that my blogging has been thrown off a bit. I'll do my best to get caught up. Thanks in advance.

If your THAT GUY you'll understand......

Gabrielle Union said the following amidst your Global Grind blog post today.

There’s something about a platonic, non-sexual male voice in your life, ideally your parent, your father, relative or brother, which should be a steady, consistent source of nothing but positivity. And having this friend inspired me to reach out to my own dad and tell him that he’s got to tell my niece everyday that she is a beautiful princess. I can tell her that she has a lovely jump shot, or she does well in school, but what she’s gonna start looking out for from other people, from other men, is to tell her how beautiful she is, and she’s gonna find validation in all the wrong ways. So, it is important to be that mentor, to be that guiding figure in her life, so she doesn’t accept validation from the wrong places.

This strikes me as a very important role that needs to be filled in a females life, IMO. We are creatures of habit and routine. What we do repeatedly and what is done to us works it's way into shaping who we are. Being that support and that affirmation for a person can go so far into helping them become comfortable in their skin.

It goes both ways too. I thank my people like Jillz and Evita cuz they understand me and my position in the world and they make it their business to drop those positive and complimentary words on my every so often. They know how a lil word or 2 can keep me sane in a world that isn't too fond of me.

I feel this applies to people of all ages. As a friend, a true friend I think it's a small thing to do for my people to be that GUY.

You have got to be kidding! Beans on Wall Street!

The Wall Street Journal apparently covers Hip Hop now......damn!
Even though their facts are a bit off.(Kay Slay didn't interview Beans.)
Anyway, get all info @ Miss Info's spot. It's Friday and my mind is on other things. :P

Pass these Words of Encourgement on.....

This is from My Super Homie Jillian's Blog. If your not on it then you need to be. She dropped this last night and asked my to pass the positivity. SO I'm here doing my part and hoping you'll do the same.

This weeks TOTW is a little late...it's been a heavy hearted type of day. I don't usually duplicate messages on Mondays....but this one was unavoidable...As I sit here and listen to Beyonce's "Me, Myself, and I"...I've just been reflecting on today's events that have inspired this week's thought..this weeks very emotional thought.

I got a call this morning on my way to work from my boss. He said, "Don't go into work today." Immediately my heart dropped...am I getting fired?

Quick flashback...the biggest reason I moved from Phoenix was because I got laid off from the company I worked for for seven years. That was my first experience with losing a job. It was a very emotionally devastating experience. One that has definitely made me stronger and ultimately led me to many blessings, but nonetheless during the experience it was very hard...very tough.

Back to today...I simply respond with a very hesitant Okaaay. He then proceeds to tell me that there isn't any bad news for me...I'm okay...but today the office will be very unpleasant as they will be letting several people go...so it might be best for me to work from home. He said I could go in if I wanted to...but I am welcome to work from home today. (Pause as Lyfe Jennings sings "Must Be Nice" right now...) So I spent my day fielding phone calls...setting up conference calls for my managers to inform their reps in the field...instant messaging some of my coworkers to see if they were okay...to see if they were "still there". In my previous situation, I wasn't cut the first time...I was let go in the second set of lay-offs. So needless to say, this whole ordeal has made me uneasy...has brought my heart and mind back to a dim place. I may exhale a sigh of relief...but I truly inhale sorrow and sadness for those that were let go. So...I don't know what this means or where this is going...but I just know that I am okay jobwise...for now.

This week I so genuinely and deeply encourage anyone...everyone who has been through or is going through a tough time right now...to feel yourself through this moment...truly FEEL yourself through...because that's all it is...a mere moment in this journey of your life. Being tough doesn't mean to be hard and callous...it just means to be resilient...walk through this moment fearlessly and know that you will come through it all...on top of it all. I can testify to that...truly. So even though the burden may weigh heavy on your shoulders...that just means you can hold your head up that much higher. Everything will be okay.....everything will be okay.

= Know Your Greatness =

Think about It Before You Leave....

As I take a moment to reflect on things. I think of the various people, mainly females who have come and gone in my life. More so, I'm thinking of those that pop up, chill, then disappear for whatever reason for extended periods of time and then just pop up again and everything is all peaches and cream. I used feel and I guess I still feel somewhat that people are going to interact that are meant to meet. But right now I think that period of time of always keeping the door open is steadily closing.

Now some might say, "Yo your changing the game in the 9th inning. How can you close the door that you've always kept open." That thing about it is that, keeping a door open on a personal level isn't a right.It's a service and privilege that I'm offering.
See, if life is getting hard and you need to fall back and handle things then that's more then understandable. Do what you gotta do and as a friend I'll be here. BUT, if you disappear cause some guy pops into the picture and you can't return a call or send a text then um no it's required that I keep a welcome mat out for you.

Do others as you would want them to do to you.Very simple.I've seen folk Enter and Exit based on whats was the most convenient for them and at times it's pretty selfish. So I guess it''s like this right now. If you choose to fade away....I might not let you return.....

The REAL Reality T.V......

16 and Pregnant should be required High School viewing.(Maybe middle school?)



It's actually a pretty good dose of honest reality. A view of what certain actions can result in.There's room for all types of entertainment. We just need balance to give real life perspective to what the world really has in store for the youth.

Wyclef Man's Up

This an update to my previous post. My friend Mari, got her apology from Wyclef over their "beef" Truth always wins in the end.Here's Wyclef Twittered public apology.

Might as well accept it.........we're all strange

You can be 16....26..36......hell 66.

Men and Women DO NOT view the world even remotely similar.Over the various sites and a decade of online activity I think I can say that is the biggest thing I've seen in the communications of numerous people.A lot of us guys come across as overly simplistic animals and so many females seem to be the these beautiful yet utterly delusional, illogical creatures of mystery. I think the less energy you spend trying to solve the riddles and the more energy you put into embracing our complexities the smoother things become.

Hulkamania 2009 Edition

This is what Hulk Hogan expressed to Rolling Stone about his divorce.

"I could have turned everything into a crime scene, like OJ, cutting everybody's throat. You live half a mile from the 20,000-square-foot home you can't go to anymore, you're driving through downtown Clearwater [Florida] and see a 19-year-old boy driving your Escalade, and you know that a 19-year-old boy is sleeping in your bed, with your wife... I totally understand OJ. I get it."

Can't really say I'm mad at him.....

What to do.....

Wolverine Origins leaked online and yes I have a full clear copy.But I'm torn between watching it now or waiting for the official release.

Is this You?

I just got reading this and I have to really wonder and ask, Have any of you ever gotten in a mans face(A good man) and spoken real extra and hurtful, just straight acted out because you KNEW you wouldn't put a hand on you? Is dealing with a good man a "Get out of Jail Free" card to push the limits?
