I absolutely love this t-mo commercial especially the part where she goes "yay" and waves her hands...needless to say I am doing that excessively because it's cutesy, I can, so I do! Shrugs...it doesn't take a lot to amuse me.

YOUR BUTT IS DIALING
LIKE PIGS AT A TROUGH
I held back from further commenting on the Chrianna situation because at the end of the day like I have been telling people around me and it's way to many stories swirling around them as is adding fuel to the fire just makes the flame grow especially since:
1. we don't know what happened fact wise.
2. this is a private matter that is acerbated by the media and gossip bloggers alike.
3. if anyone has to resort to violence then they both should be put up on assault charges, and that's for anyone that uses violence against a person unless it's self defense.
4. both of parties involved need some kind of counseling and personal time to themselves.
But with that said there comes the slippery slope, if a woman jumps in a mans face and proceeds to hit him then is he not justified in hitting her back or is he just supposed to take it because the laws are on the woman's side? If it were two people of the same sex fighting it would be considered assault. If a woman on the street was hit by a man she didn't know it would be considered battery. If a woman hits a man she doesn't know it's considered assault but when the two people are in what is considered a relationship type situation then the terms are paired with domestic and then victim rights go out the window.
Suddenly her face is plastered on every two bit gossip blog, regular blog, even black planet. For a full week that's all I have seen and still see on some blogs is the picture purchased by TMZ trotted out like a show pony. Not because it's tragic and we should rally behind this young woman, for the simple fact that this is something sensational to exploit. Something to gawk at and shake our heads and bemoan the beast that did this, even though we still don't have any facts on the matter. It's ironic how people are so concerned about Rhianna but the first chance they got to exploit her battered image they did. Where do morals and ethics come in at? When is the line drawn? What about her rights as a victim? Does she not deserve privacy in this matter? If that was your sister, or mother, daughter, cousin, loved one would you have wanted her bruised face used as a platform to advance page hits, and get your name out there in terms of readership? How hard is it for this young woman to clear her mind when she has all these people clamoring at her telling her what she should be doing in this situation and then to force her hand they release her picture world wide. In the mean time Brown hasn't even been to trial yet but already he is guilty, he is all kinds of bastards, and sons of bitches, he is losing endorsement deals, movie posters, his image has taken a public beating. Again I am not justifying I'm just saying already in the peoples public opinion many have already convicted this 18 year old boy and are calling for his blood.
AND THE FACT THAT EVERYONE SEEMS TO BE MISSING IS, WASN'T NAR ONE OF US IN THE CAR, ON THE SIDEWALK, IN THE HOSPITAL, WE HAVEN'T TALKED TO EITHER ONE OF THESE YOUNG PEOPLE BUT ALREADY PEOPLE HAVE TAKEN SIDES. MINUTES AFTER IT HAPPENED WORLD WIDE IT WAS SAID HE DID IT BECAUSE SHE GAVE HIM HERPES. WITH THE ADVANCE OF THE WORLD WIDE WEB INFO IS SPREAD RAPIDLY AND IT DOESN'T EVEN HAVE TO BE ACCURATE IT JUST HAS TO BE SENSATIONAL and the public proceeds to eat it up like pigs at a trough.
It's sad. Instead of just keeping both these troubled young folks in our prayers and offering them encouragement and counseling and just some time for them to reflect and get their spirits together the media is constantly cranking out stories that may or may not be fact, and every time a story is published it is ran with the world is a heartless compassionless place, sad...

I BEEN IN A RECESSION Y'ALL JUST CATCHING UP

Art work found here
I know that I have posted this before but Its too brilliant not to re-post again, and since I am the only one who reads this blog it matters not if I post it again.
Dear Uncle Sam:
Hi, it's me the one you know as ***-**-****. I have worked in your system since I was the ripe age of 19 officially. I have had jobs that paid a wage that wouldn't even keep a well fed pooch alive let alone a person with financial responsibilities. You see Uncle Sam I have tried my hardest to do right, work, be a responsible citizen and pledge my allegiance to my country even when I think you're wrong I still would just shrug and chop it up to America being America. I thought we had some type of understanding I would work my way up the pay scale and you would raise my wages due to a cost of living increase. Some where along the lines though Uncle Sam you failed me. You wrote books and legislation's on freedom, and democracy, you said give us your hungry and poor and we will clothe and feed them we will welcome you with open arms because we are America and that is our duty and we do it proudly.
Well Uncle Sam I am pissed off because I am American born and bred but I can't pay not a one of my bills because I can't find a job that will hire me with a wage rate that will allow me to keep up with the cost of my expenses and the cost of living in southern California. I own that I have made financial missteps but no worst then the wheffa who runs up her charge card on gucci, and prada. Actually my mistakes don't even amount to anything that huge, but I digress. I have not used the best of judgment at times but to repeatedly deny me work thus not allowing me to better my situation and pull myself up by my bootstraps is that not a blatant mockery of what America stands for? How can I better my situation if I can't get a job paying decent wages due to my current FICA score? I am stuck in the catch 22, I have gotten sucked into this downward spiral and I am stuck at the bottom and I am caught in the drainpipe called despair. What about me have I not be a loyal citizen? Have I not warranted your care, or help? Have you not seen me broken and beaten down by my financial circumstances? What would you have me do? Prostitute my body? Sell drugs? Rob and steal? After I take one of these alternative methods of living into consideration and I happen to get caught by your boys in blue Johnny law and they throw me under the penal system and give me life because I can't afford a high profile lawyer to plead my case what then Uncle Sam?
At this point in my life I just want simple things I want to be able to maintain a well paying job, one that will allow me to pull myself out of the financial bind that has become my resting place, I want to be able to live on my own with having to worry about where my next meal is coming from or if my lights and gas will be turned off. I want to be a productive member of society but I am being penalized because I can't afford to pay my bills and have made some poor financial choices in my life. I am now not a worthy candidate to be hired because according to employers who run a background check and see a poor credit history/score they say it speaks to my trustworthiness and therefore my credit score says that I could be considered untrustworthy around sensitive information, that I am susceptible to bribes, that I may commit fraud using someone else's information etc. In actuality I have never even stole so much as a piece of bubblegum, nor would I ever steal because if I was a thief I wouldn't be poor I would be rich, if I had no integrity I would be a winner because people with no integrity do whatever it takes to make that almighty dollar, they bend the truth, they use "creative" money management, they do whorish things to get ahead in life, suck a little dick, put out porn tapes, write about extramarital affairs, sleep with their bosses to get ahead etc. So what would you advise me to do Uncle Sam if no one will hire me for anything what recourse do I have? I am at the whim of the world I can't even pay my cellphone bill and yes that will go on my credit also, my bank account is also overdrawn and yes that will go on my credit also and the fun just keeps going.
I just want to say thank you for thinking of me when you passed these laws that made it virtually impossible to improve upon my financial situation, thank you for valuing people from other countries better than you value your native sons and daughters. Thank you for not allowing a single black women who has no kids to be eligible for any kind of aid or benefits because you don't consider her destitute enough. If anyone were to ask me where the greatest place in the world is to live I would truly be at a lost for words because right now my life is fucked up and you don't give a shit but yet you say I shouldn't be lazy, and trifling, pushing out babies and putting them on the counties dime. Yet when I don't do that I can't get any financial help so Thank you Uncle Sam for being that uncle that rapes me in the basement and robs me of my dignity repeatedly. I am your least favorite Niece, the forgotten and the destitute yet you want me to believe in you, care about you, work towards a common goal and do my part. Why not just give me my own BET reality show you can call it a "broke black bitch with no whip and no chips" or how about "Shuckin' and jivin' coon time for that prime time dime" or "America's next baby momma with three different baby daddies who all have to go on Maury and none of them are still not the father" I digress. You have to wonder about a country that rewards stupidity, turns a back to everyday american's with real financial needs, but makes instant stars out of women who use there wombs as a revolving door for romper room. If this world isn't fucked up and backwards then I must not having my thinking in order.
Signed your least favorite, never thought of native niece
God Bless America.....

WHAT IS IT WITH BOATS N' BLACK FOLKS?
So I think it's pretty much safe to say that T-pain has become the ambassador for all things fuckery and musical. Now as I watch this SNL clip and I couldn't help but think damn they jacked the whole concept of akon's Acorns latest video but its all irrelevant actually. But It's damn safe to say not one of these "singers" or "rappers" (using those terms in the lightest way possible) own none of these boats. And as I got to thinking more about it, since the economy is all fucked to hell I'm sure these pimps of culture are doing what they have to just to stay afloat in these troubled times as long as the check get's cashed right fellas! Now who say's I never tried to give these wack acts the benefit of my doubt! In every generation there is a STEPIN FETCHIT some even argue that Tyler Perry is one but you already know my views on that if not REFRESH YOUR MEMORY
