Sh*t I Hate Mondays

Today, we’re going to have a special edition of VSB.  You see, a while back, I wrote a post about things that grind my gears.  And my gears had been grinded quite grindiously.  However, it’s difficult to put posts like that in a proper time perspective because let’s be real, new sh*t pisses us off on a daily basis.  And simliarly, things that DID piss me off 2 weeks ago, might not bother me in the slightest today.

It’s a complex web we weave.  Or something.

Either way, most of us experience the Mondays in some way shape or form.  Well, on Friday, I experienced the Mondays and I figured that you know what, everybody needs therapy and needs to be able to blow off a little steam.

And what better day than Monday.  Now this is not going to be a recurring VSB theme, this is just today’s special edition.

So, if you don’t mind, I think I’m going to go ahead and burn down a few houses.  I’m not the arsonist for nothing, right?

1)  I’ve recently discovered how much I motherf*king HATE people who only communicate via text message.  How in the motherf*ck are we planning an event TOGETHER, yet you refuse to answer your phone when I call you AND THEN you text me right after you DON’T answer the phone ONLY TO SAY, ‘what’s up?’

Are you in the shower and can’t answer the phone but can text?  Did you get your jimmie caught in a door and because of that you can’t speak but can text?  Does that make any sense?  I don’t know.

You see, this doesn’t grind my gears.  I wanted to commit capital murder behind this one.

But I digress.

2)  You know what I hate more than people who only communicate via text?  Do ya?  Do ya?

I hate BLOGS run by insecure motherf*ckers who only consider your opinion if you agree with them.  Yes, the kind of blog that would tell you that your dissent is akin to being a disruptive member of the community and that you should effectively, keep quiet because your opinion is in direct contrast to what they believe to be true.

Facts be damned.

Let’s just say, for sh*ts and giggles, that you are a VSB and you go to a site considered to be all about “black female empowerment” and sh*t.  And you just so happened to be writing about interracial relationships.  And say a particular VSB offered his opinion on said topic because well, the site kind of implied that Black men are essentially f*cking up everything for Black women and holding Black women down.

Now say that in this convo, it was stated that Black women should date other races and stop limiting themselves (I always found that these sites seem to be anti-Black man – never is it date all men, it’s more, stop dating Black men and date other men – us Black men are REALLY f*cked up huh?), which makes sense.  Anyway, say a VSB (and this could be anybody) offers his opinion as to why more Black women aren’t in fact dating outside the race, said moderator of the site pretty much states that he disagrees with what is widely considered to be fact…f*ck it, in short, this chick decides that a particular VSB is not an authority and that what he says is merely opinion.

Because it is not in agreement with her.

Since she is both fact and authority.

Get the f*ck out of here with that bullsh*t.

Ironically, said moderator isn’t an authority on the subject either, but what do I know.

There’s actually more, but f*ck their couch.

(You want to know who it is don’t you?)

I guess my main point is, you aren’t sh*t as a person if you’re sole purpose of discussing a very valid and interesting debate is to pretty much reduce the debate to only the opinions that coincide with your own.

People, my people, I feel better now that I’ve let those evils out of my heart.  What better day than Monday than to just therapize yourself and get some sh*t out.

Do you have anything on your heart that is just pissing you off to no end right now?  Share.  Let us help you.

And if Mario is around, let him love you.

Sharing is caring.

  1. I ‘shole hate it’ when:

    1. Someone comes to me (a grown ass woman) telling me what someone else said. My first response, “Well why they were calling me everything except a child of God, what were YOU saying?”

    2a. My dry cleaning is supposed to be ready by 5. I arrive at 5:02, and my shyt ain’t ready. Da helle?

    2b. I order my groceries to arrive between 9 and 11. They arrive at 11:33. I call and ask for a refund of the delivery fee. Before the stank minimum wage heffa issues my refund, she has to remind me that there is no delivery guarantee, it’s just a window. They hell do they think they are–Comcast?!

    3. When people come in my house and take their shoes off. I never tell them to do this. But for some reason they do it. It’s as if I don’t have a banging ass vacuum and access to carpet cleaners. Damn. If I don’t tell you to take them off, then I don’t care.

    4. When people go in my kitchen. I like to keep things tidy. Therefore, unless I set things up buffet style, I don’t need you tryna fix your own plate. Why? Cus too many dumb asses don’t know how to fix a plate without having food all over the stove, counter, and floor.

    • @Ms. Smart,

      Damn, your nice… errmm.. yah.

      I wish a motherf*cker wooouuuuuuuuuld… NOT take off there damn shoes… shiiiiiiiiiii

      • @Officer Ricky,

        I’m there with you! I’m like, don’t you see that big arse rug in front the door AND the other shoes lining the wall??? Ninja, you not wearing Aladdin slippers! Check those joints at the door before you walk on my wood floors! Tracking dirt and making marks on my floor……

        • @CoCoPuffs, You know what, the shoes at the door is probably why they do it. I have shoes at the door because I take them shyts off as soon as I get in my house because I don’t like wearing shoes.

          *Makes mental note to remove pile of shoes at the door.*

      • @Officer Ricky,

        Baaaaaaaaasically.

        I don’t need you tracking all manner of unpleasantness on my rugs. Basically because I like to have s3x on the floor and will probably not vacuum prior to each encounter.

        Also, in my culture it is RUDE to walk into someone’s house with your shoes on. You are considered uncouth, dirty and possibly a dictator.

      • @J Money, In some cultures, yes. I was raised in the D. We wore shoes. Plus, when mofos take off their shoes, they lean on the white wall–even though I have a perfectly good ottoman at the entry–and leave damned prints. As a result, I have to break out the magic eraser! Who wants to do all that?

      • @NiazDad, i do that too actually. on occasion. when my daughter was first born…man, going to the grocery store was such a pain in the azz. but you can just go online and pay some nominal delivery fee and BAM…groceries at yo door.

        btw, “groceries at yo door” sounds like a perfect title for a “trickin’ if ya got it” song.

        • @Panama Jackson, Well i see i behind the power curve on that one…but it’s okay when my wife just had our daughter we were in Japan so i don’t think we had an option of that…But i would think i would like to be there to pick out my fruit and stuff..

      • @NiazDad,

        get like me!!!!! maaaan, come winter time me and peapod are BFF. cause making groceries in the snow is not the business.

    • @Ms. Smart, people really take their shoes off?
      I dont want to go to nan ninja house where the floor is to good for shoes. I am sorry thats pretentious and ridiculous. I mean I can understand if its raining, or snowing.. but regular old day? naw son..

      • @shay_d_lady, And I feel you on this. But you can’t tell other folks what to do in their homes. If I go to someone’s home and ‘Shoes Off’ is the rule, I follow. But my house? Naw.

        Even if I had hard wood floors, I would put down rugs in all the high traffic areas.

    • @Ms. Smart, 3. When people come in my house and take their shoes off. I never tell them to do this. But for some reason they do it. It’s as if I don’t have a banging ass vacuum and access to carpet cleaners. Damn. If I don’t tell you to take them off, then I don’t care.

      you wouldn’t like me then, its a habit of mine, i always take off my shoes.

      • @overitloveswednesdays,

        you and me both, etwin. i have special “house shoes” that i wear around the house. i hate ppl to wear their nasty outside shoes on my kitchen and bathroom floors. like, do you know what you’ve been stepping on all day and now you wanna put the outdoors on my floors?? i.dont.think.so.

          • @blackberry molasses playing hooky from work,

            i just feel those 2 places should be the cleanest places!!! like, i’m barefoot in my bathroom. i dont want to step out of a shower all fresh and clean only to stomp onto some fealth that you just left cuz you had to tinkle. no and sir.

    • On the shoes off thing: I’m a “when in Rome” kinda guy about that. If it looks remotely like that’s how they roll in their house, they come off…otherwise they stay on unless I’m getting some draws.

    • @Ms. Smart,

      No offense to ANYBODY.. but we aint Asian, and where in the history did it become custom to take off your shoes when you go to a persons home.. I don’t walk around my own home barefoot, what the heck makes u think I want to walk around your ish without any shoes?? Women, unless they are wearing tennis shoes don’t normally wear socks… so unless you are willing to accomadate those persons with disposable flip-flops like they give you in the nail shop.. If i have to take my shoes off before I step inside your home.. please warn me before hand. I know this is something that people do… but the floor folks… is to be walked on… We should tag this item as “COUNTRY CUSTOMS”

      • @Lanieanna, No offense to ANYBODY.. but we aint Asian, and where in the history did it become custom to take off your shoes when you go to a persons home.. I don’t walk around my own home barefoot, what the heck makes u think I want to walk around your ish without any shoes?? Women, unless they are wearing tennis shoes don’t normally wear socks… so unless you are willing to accomadate those persons with disposable flip-flops like they give you in the nail shop.. If i have to take my shoes off before I step inside your home.. please warn me before hand. I know this is something that people do… but the floor folks… is to be walked on… We should tag this item as “COUNTRY CUSTOMS”

        When people start off a comment/rebuttal with “no offense”, I prepare to be offended, lol. I can’t stand when people do that!!! No offense…

        SO many things wrong with this statement. For one the “we’re not asian”. It is not only asians who have this as a custom. It is a common practice in many countries outside North America and Asian cultures.

        “where in the history did it become custom to take off your shoes when you go to a persons home.” World history perhaps? lol, US history was great though. (except for the blurb on slavery)

        Also, this: “I don’t walk around my own home barefoot, what the heck makes u think I want to walk around your ish without any shoes??”

        People are not going to provide you house shoes, lol. You got house shoes at home, you might want to carry them with you. When people come to my home, I expect them to not track all the crackish residue that is chillin on the bottom of their shoe.

        • @overit?, i just wanted to say 1) overit, i love you because you make me laugh. and 2) my brother & sis-in-law have multi-colored plastic house shoes at the door for their guests to wear. they’re kept in a cute little basket in the foyer. i want multi-colored house shoes at my door when i grow up. in the meantime, i’m going to make people take their shoes off and get dirty socks because i don’t like to dust, mop or swiffer. is that rude? ;)

          • @Miss Patterson, Now see, I don’t put on those communal flip flops at the nail salon. I don’t think I could do it in someone’s home either. But it’s very thoughtful of them to have options available.

          • @Ms. Smart,

            The flip flops @ nail salons here are disposable.. they remove them from the pack, and you leave with them.. I couldn’t imagine putting my feet into some one elses shoes or socks… now THAT is nasty!

        • @lanieanna
          I concur…
          I dont know maybe its just the south but we dont walk around barefoot, and I have been to plenty of rich peoples home and I have never seen anyone else or been asked to take off my shoes. Really this is the first time I have heard of this. I have removed my shoes for when entering holy places/ places of worship but your home?
          If that is the way shyt is in your home then you should make accomadations or at least tell me in advance. I will not and shall not carry country a$$ houseshoes or socks around because I might fall up on an uppity negress that has pristine white carpets.. and I most DEFINITELY aint walking barefoot or with socks in nann ninja kitchen or bathroom
          if you have a museum home or you have not gotten your pristine white carpets pre treated then dont invite me thats some bullshyt I am sorry.

          • @shay_d_lady,
            My step-mom tried that shoes off in the house ish for about 6 months when they moved in their new house.
            Needless to say…we were giving her the side-eye.
            I take my shoes off when I come home because I love thick fluffy socks. Am I going to ask anyone who walks in my house to remove their shoes?
            Absolutely not.

          • @shay_d_lady,

            i’ve NEVER known anybody to be so outraged at some one asking them not to wear their nasty filthy gross shoes in their home (white carpet or not).

            trust and believe, if you (you in a global sense) have an issue with it, you wont be invited back. not a big problem, easy to solve.

          • @ Gem of the Ocean,

            “i’ve NEVER known anybody to be so outraged at some one asking them not to wear their nasty filthy gross shoes in their home (white carpet or not).”

            Really? My Grandma cussed out my cousin for even suggesting this.
            I was *dying*.

          • @shay_d_lady, Honestly, I have only heard this shoe removal policy from people from the islands. But by reading this, I’m starting to believe they don’t have a lock on shoe removal. Also, I don’t live in a walking community. We drive everywhere so I don’t have that much of the outsides on my shoes. Then again, I clean every day so even if someone did track something in, I have a bottle of Resolve at the ready and a vacuum to follow.

          • @shay_d_lady,

            You know, I believe Champ asked me if we were twins the other day. :) I guess that is why I don’t understand the whole off with the shoes thing… I mean, when I think about this it almost reminds me of the old “don’t sit on the good couch” thing. I am not going to come in from the rain, and stomp all over someone’s white carpet…. That would be rude… but its the floor. I assume that none of the people who do not allow shoes on the floor of their homes have any pets that require walking outside of the home.. I mean what do you do.. make them wear booties outside… I bet you could find more germs on peoples hands than you could on the bottom of their shoes, but I have never seen a hand sanatizing station next to the infamous shoe pile/lineup. I can guarentee that people who have carpet in their homes have wayyy more germs, dander, and all around gross shyt in their carpet than I have on the bottom of my shoes on any given day. There are circumstances that I believe are acceptable when someone asks you to remove your shoes.. If it is truly a cultural custom, if you have a baby learning to crawl/walk… If you just had your carpets cleaned and its still a little damp… I totally get it… I wonder if it stops at walking on the floor. I can see it now… me in mid-squat bout to sit in the “good sofa”, being halted with a “WAIT!!” lol!

          • its so strange to me that people are getting so upset about this.

            I chalk it up to how I was raised and my cultural experiences. For my entire life, it has been the norm to remove your shoes when you go into someone’s home.

            Not so much for cleanliness– it is a sign of respect. In many cultures. I never experienced people leaving their shoes on in the home till I emigrated to the U.S. They take their shoes off in Canada.

            Its something I’ve never been able to shake. Also, being the daughter of a woman who conducts the ‘white glove test’ after you clean your room has made me somewhat anal retentive about keeping germies and dirt out of my house.

            Y’all don’t realize the nasty sh*t that ends up on your shoes. No amount of heavy duty welcome mats or super carpet shampoos can kill some of the stuff that gets on your shoes. And I like to lay on my carpet and watch TV. My neices and nephews play on my floors and they are young enough to still have oral fixations and put EVERYTHING in their mouths.

            All this to say… Chez BBMo, take your shoes OFF. Don’t like it? We can meet at a restaurant. If you invite me over and want me to keep my shoes on, I will, and not give you grief about it. But don’t give me grief about MY HOUSE
            RULES.

            Okay… that was tome-tastic

          • @ Gem of the Ocean.. trust and believe, if you (you in a global sense) have an issue with it, you wont be invited back. not a big problem, easy to solve.

            LMAO chile please… I dont go anywhere I feel uncomfortable, if you rolling like that, I wont enter the first time.

            and no hard feelings but for real we are talking about grown ups. where the hell do you think my shoes have been ? I ant tracking through mud and shyt in my 4 1/2 inch stilletos, trust.

          • @Lanieanna You know, I believe Champ asked me if we were twins the other day.

            LMAO I dont think I saw that post but it probably wasnt a good thing!

          • @blackberry molasses playing hooky from work
            if that is your culture, I undertand and would respect that, but I would need to know in advance. I wasnt referencing “cutural or religious” reasons.Which I think most would understand and conform to. I am referring to regular old, ninjas asking for the sake of being pretentious.. unless you got some dolphin fur on your shyt I dont see the purpose. And the discussions of nasty shoes? umm provide some lysol wipes at the door, but forcing someone to walk bare feet? I just dont understand

  2. Sebastian hawks/derin ferguson is a liar and a douche and is far too old to pull the “i’m not listening, i’m not listening” lol! I’m letting the hate out and it feels great, thanks vsb! (endorsement)

  3. i think the title of this post should have been “Sh*t I Hate [fill in name of blog here]“. becuz, oddly enough, i dont think your #2 has anything to do with mondays, or reading blogs on mondays, or even blogs with monday in the title, so it seems to disrupt the flow a bit.

    but then this is half YOUR site so the flow is whatever you say it is. carry on…

  4. I have a grievance.

    My boss NEVER takes sick days. She brings her infectious, germy ass to work and happily infects others, but will throw a hissy fit if she finds out you’ve come to work feeling under the weather. Because of this outbreak Monkey, I have been quarantined in my house since Thursday, coughing and sneezing and fever-ing all by my lonesome. I missed a birthday party, a museum outing, and a brunch that I’d had planned for weeks.

    Raggedy hoe.

  5. I’d love to add but for some reason being on vacation with my man since Thurs. has left me in some euphoric state that even though I have to get up in 4.5 hours to travel 2 hours to a job that I get paid to do absolutely nothing, except put on a charade that I actually get paid 3x minimum wage (thank you tax payers) to do something… only to travel 2 hours back home and do it ALL again for the next 5 days… all I can think of are the smiles I put on his face and the ones he put on mine….. *sigh of bliss*

    • @Jay_Delicious, can’t be mad. you clearly needed to get that off yoru chest.

      love is beautiful unless it involves bobby and whitney…or jermaine jackson’s hair.

      yo, am in the only person who wonders what kind of Duke he’s using? how does he get his hair so damn wavy and perfect.

      • @Panama Jackson, I don’t think that is Duke…looks more like a texturizer to me with how slicked down the sides beLOL!!

      • @Panama Jackson,
        you are not the only one. 3 weeks since the memorial, and i am still caught up in the mystery of jermaine’s hair. so far, i’ve narrowed his regimen down to shellac and clear spray paint. i know there’s more though….

      • @Panama Jackson, that aint hair.. that has to be some spray on round them sides..now that top? I think thats a kit and he sets that thang on some small jerri curl rollers…LMAO

      • @Panama Jackson,

        I think he makes Jermajesty brush a comb through it 100 times.

        Could be wrong, but I doubt it.

      • @Panama Jackson,
        His hair is made of black stucco like on ya grandmama’s ceilings and sh*t. With a Vigorol on the top. Who remembers Vigorol???

        And folks think Mike was the weird one. R.I.P.

    • @Jay_Delicious, has left me in some euphoric state that even though I have to get up in 4.5 hours to travel 2 hours to a job that I get paid to do absolutely nothing, except put on a charade that I actually get paid 3x minimum wage (thank you tax payers) to do something… only to travel 2 hours back home and do it ALL again for the next 5 days…

      I cant say I join u on that sentament… Im not on vaca and I still must travel my 2 hours to work….. but hold up u got a boyfriend and u dont tell ur bro? I’m hurt, offended, taken a back…. ok…. moment over… but I hate friends that dont fill u in on the big things in their lives just because its summer break and they havent actually seen u since May… btw ur on my list…

      • @The_Eighth_Hokage,

        Lol, stop playing games. You arent her brother and you two arent even friends like that and you effed yourself over by doing things you never had the right to. You arent hurt, offended or certianly not taken a back because you knew about him sometime ago says the street. Shame shame. LMAO

      • @The_Eighth_Hokage, ummm yea. I have a boyfriend, we’ve been together for about 5 months and known him for about 2 years… everyone else on campus (ie in the gameroom) knows…. not sure why you don’t – either way don’t be offended or anything, just think back to that tennis court conversation.

        but thats neither here nor there… I guess I’ll see you in like 3 weeks how bout you hit me up then?

        • @J.Delicious,
          hold up….. maybe i do know and i just forgot…. im still mad u only texted me for info once all summer and i cant get a just check to make sure ur alive fb wall post….. oh well i guess… Im over it now have a good rest of summer, lls

  6. People that keep complainin about BET but are aware of every freakin show, video, special, countdown and recurring movie that comes on that sumb@!ch! WHY ARE YOU WATCHIN IT??? Do that make sense?? Goodness! Damn BET closets! Come on out, why don’t ya! We see you!

    • @nia, lol. i’m not a BET fan, but i will say that they’re at least trying to come up with competitive crap, literally, to get folks to watch.

      admittedly, i wated tiny and toya once.

      but i feel you.

      • @Panama Jackson,

        i actually can get with T&T. it’s not all that interesting, but it’s not a montage of hoodratedness. they actually be schoolin these chicks and helping them develop into professionals — i appreciate that aspect. around the way girls need guidance too.

    • @nia, I think people watch it just so they can complain about the show. These people will be the same one’s who will watch the BET Awards and then complain how ghetto it was. But have watched it every year. Did you think the format was gonna change??

      I got so sick of people complaining about the MJ tribute they did during the BET Awards!!

  7. U wanna know what I hate? U wanna knoe what I f:!’?+/ hate!

    1. Insomnia
    Like I’m all ready to go sleep and dream about so and so’s delectable self, but am reduced to staring at cielings till 6in tha morning.

    2. Crazy h€ffas

    Uno them girls that straight mean mug u from a dark corner coz u talking to her man, who was your fried looooooongv before he met her.

    3. That insane umpaloompa covering Beyonces videos and having0 the audacity to post them on youtube

    4. Facebook

    5. My bank account

    6. Bold ninjas
    I said I have a man, why you still in my face?

    I got over you, why is it now that you want to call me?

    7. My blackberry

    • @Dope Fiend, how can you hate on your blackberry??? lol.

      i thought that and crack were a girl’s best friend,

      or was that Whitney.

      (man two whitney references in less than 5 minutes…ouch)

    • @Dope Fiend,
      ‘i like your list in general. but in particular:

      “2. Crazy h€ffas

      Uno them girls that straight mean mug u from a dark corner coz u talking to her man, who was your fried looooooongv before he met her.”

      exactly. a male friend had this issue with his girlfriend and me. and it took everything in me to not let her know, “beby. had i wanted him, you wouldn’t even know his phone number right now. at ease.” she’s off somewhere now, living her life like it’s golden, i assume.

      “3. That insane umpaloompa covering Beyonces videos and having0 the audacity to post them on youtube.”

      um….i saw this. and idied. but then i saw a video talking about him and calling him all sorts of ugly m’fers….and i kinda felt sad.

    • @Dope Fiend,

      “6. Bold ninjas
      I said I have a man, why you still in my face?”

      LOL, they always drop the default, “But, I can be yo friend though”. LMFAO…go friend your arse over there somewhere.

      • @Cheekie, or they could simply not bother and just kick it real. “I understand that you have a man and i dont know you well but something about you tells me that i want you, and i want you to myself. I wont try to be your friend cause its not really possible for me, but here is my number. If your circumstances ever change, give me a call.”

        you ain’t gotta lie to kick it and ish.

    • @Dope Fiend,
      Imsomnia- i got a brownie that will cure all ya sleepin problems

      Bank account- HELLL MOFO YEAH i dont even kno why i hava account prolly like 1.75 in da bish rit now i jus keep it open so i can cash checks fo free

  8. Hmmm…

    I hate it when black women proceed to ask me “Is that ALL your hair” or when said black woman decides to ‘accidently touch’ my hair…or when I just met you and within minutes miraculously a discussion surrounds my hair (umm.. i don’t know you!) or your hair (I don’t give a rats azz).

    It irks me when I say Good Morning to someone and they look at me like I am crazy. Can a sista give a morning salutation??

    It irks me when some big tall azz man decides to lean over my 5’3 azz on the train…can a sista get some breathing room?

    I hate it when people start name dropping, degree dropping, school dropping, what ever they need to say to sound important dropping…ninja please!

    And I absolutely hate it when teller marketers call my house (especially on a Sunday, can I pray and meditate in peace?)… automated teller marketers are even worse… chances are I don’t want nothin you got.

    • @blackpearl287,
      “I hate it when people start name dropping, degree dropping, school dropping, what ever they need to say to sound important dropping…ninja please!”

      And I absolutely hate it when teller marketers call my house (especially on a Sunday, can I pray and meditate in peace?)… automated teller marketers are even worse… chances are I don’t want nothin you got.

      you can solve this fairly quickly by putting your phone number on the National Do Not Call List.
      http://www.donotcall.gov

      Works for your cell too.
      Has saved my sanity.

      Can’t help you with the other stuff. Sorry.

    • @blackpearl287, I hate it when people start name dropping, degree dropping, school dropping, what ever they need to say to sound important dropping…ninja please!

      i think some of us who went to certain hbcu’s where certain famous people attended to get our very prestigiuous degrees take a class for that sh*t. how to make sure everybody knows your resume in 10 seconds or less.

      i actually know of a cat who mentioned his college on his answering machine message.

      hi. you’ve reached d-bag (actually he said his name) at harvard law. i’m unable to receive your call right now so leave me a message harvard law, please. btw, i went to columbia undergrad. but don’t call me there, b/c i’m not there anymore, i’m at harvard law now. …………kthxbi.

      i’m only slightly exaggerating.

  9. Both of those, especially point 1 “grind my gears”. OMG! So I have a friend who is JUST like this.

    Other things that grind my gears:

    *Black Men that talk about keeping it real, yet will dog out a black woman for proudly wearing her natural hair, calling it everything from hot mess to knappy.

    *People who talk to you like you don’t know sh*t about what you’re talking about, only for them to find out that you actually do know what you’re talking about, and their raised level of saltiness makes them act more “head up the butt”-ish.

    *Women who think they are model material and are clearly not.

    *People who make statements about groups of people (models, greeks, blacks, w/e), only for you to correct them, and they change their tone/topic as if they weren’t just talking about that group that you know about/belong to.

    *USPS. My mail never comes on time.

    *Twitter. Its always brokedid.

    and lastly…

    *Men who yell out of cars/windows/from bus stops trying to “holla” at a girl, with improper English, no sense of manners, over-inflated egos, and just a general sense of weak game.

    I’m going to be nice tonight and not put out people’s business and stuff, so I won’t drop names and specifics.

    • @chaoticdiva,

      “Yo, SHAWTY!!!! Who you fuh?” lol

      • @charli skipper,
        “Yo, SHAWTY!!!! Who you fuh?”

        My ignorance to the meaning behind that simple question almost got me beat up…for real!

    • @chaoticdiva, speaking of mail, i hate UPS. they only seem to deliver when i’m at work. they don’t have weekend hours AND their facilities are always in the most remote, deserted location of anytown, usa.

    • @chaoticdiva, *Black Men that talk about keeping it real, yet will dog out a black woman for proudly wearing her natural hair, calling it everything from hot mess to knappy.

      perms are whats hot in these streets.

    • @chaoticdiva,
      “*Men who yell out of cars/windows/from bus stops trying to “holla” at a girl, with improper English, no sense of manners, over-inflated egos, and just a general sense of weak game. ”

      Blame other women for this. If hollering “Oh now” out of of the window of a Caprice Classic did not have a high success rate, men would cease to employ said tactic.

  10. when idiot “friends” love to tag you in the most unflattering facebook pictures

    when people think that proclaiming how much bigger their dreams are than everyone elses and how much more fly they are than everyone makes them uber important

    those [insert word here] yahoos who disrupt the town hall meetings on healthcare to spew utter garbage

    • @sexywinergirl, ditto on your #1. i have a few friends on speed dial for this recurring offense. conversation usually goes like this:
      me: “are you for real?”
      offender: “aww, you look so cute”
      me: “so, you think i look cute when i’m sweaty and my hair is undone and i look pissed off?”
      offender: “oh stop.”
      me: “delete it!”

      then again, i am also a bit of a photo nazi. so, perhaps these same individuals are getting me back. hmmm…

    • @sexywinergirl,
      “when idiot “friends” love to tag you in the most unflattering facebook pictures”

      cooooooooooooo-sign.

    • @sexywinergirl,

      those [insert word here] yahoos who disrupt the town hall meetings on healthcare to spew utter garbage

      Thanks for the opening to rant about that. Them bastids cheapened legit gripes with those disguisting displays of exaggeration and calling Obama all kinds of Nazis. And the woman that said “I want my America back” could easily be seen saying “I want my South Africa back.”

  11. I hate when people put someone on blast but won’t tell the name?

    LMAO I wanna know who? Give me a hint are they on the blogroll?

    Naw but for real I hate ungrateful mothaf!ckas! I saved this heffas job last week after she damn near got someone killed for real and this ho had the audacity to try and front me cause I had to deny her day off request. Uh ho u could have all ur days off!

    Ill be back in the morning

    • “I hate when people put someone on blast but won’t tell the name”

      Man that happens so much on facebook and I can not stand it. Then the crazy part is they are friends with the people. They might as well say the names!! But I think they do it for attention as well.

      • @8th Wonder, LMAO girl it took everything in my power not to say that to her..
        I hate being in management

  12. Can’t stand loud chicks, or obnoxious guys.

    Girls who come in the club in their super short dresses and actually dance. I don’t wanna see your cr0tch Britney!

    Lately, I’ve been runnin into a lot of people from highschool…who didn’t like me and never spoke to me. And they act excited to see me. Nah…I’m good. I can’t stand fake people

    Ignorance. And more than that, people who are happy in their ignorance

    People who always feel like they have to one-up you. It’s okay…we can share the spotlight

    Liars

    People who smoke around their kids and even more, people who smoke around other people’s kid

    People who give alcohol to their kids

    There’s so much more, but I’m just gonna quit now

    • @Imperfect, Girls who come in the club in their super short dresses and actually dance. I don’t wanna see your cr0tch Britney!

      this is basically totally unrelated, but i really should write a book about managing a nightclub. anyway, that’s one of the unfortunate side effects of working in a club. you see more nasty chicks than you ever want. i can’t tell you how many drunk chicks you’d see bent over a couch or something that would totally disgust you out. crotch shots a plenty.

      it gets real dangerous down there. everybody ain’t up on good vjj game.

    • @Imperfect,
      “Lately, I’ve been runnin into a lot of people from highschool…who didn’t like me and never spoke to me. And they act excited to see me. Nah…I’m good. I can’t stand fake people”

      OMG!!! Yes! There’s this one girl (her name is Ashley…yes, I put her ish out there on blast), who tried to start up a conversation with me at my bro’s track meet, and I looked at her funny. This is the same girl who used to hate on me for no effing reason. H*ll, the only reason she knew my name was her bro was bff with my bro. Like no classes, nada together. SMH.

  13. @sexywinergirl,

    Co-sign on the crazies at the townhall meetings. I’m convinced they are paid actors.

  14. Text conversations – Text is cool if we’re deciding where to meet up and limited to 1 or 2 texts, but if we’re going back and forth and you won’t pick up the phone, then I get irritated (even worse is text arguments which makes no sense to me)

    People who get in my car and tell me how to drive or control the music

    Incompetent co-workers

    Overly opinionated people – I don’t need to hear your opinion about everything

    • @Leila,

      “People who get in my car and tell me how to drive or control the music”

      My grandmother is no longer able to receive a ride for this reason. I love her dearly but someone else is going to pick her up.

  15. People who are willfully and gleefully ignorant. What I do for a paycheck is troubleshoot gadgets over the phone. When I ask you “Is it XP or Vista?” and your reply is “Its Windows.” I wanna go off the top ropes on that a$$. When you want to troubleshoot your laptop and you don’t have it present. Guess what? Top ropes in a cage match. Genius you’re not smarter than me which is why you called me for help so STFU and do what I tell you to do. Last but not least…..When you want a credit for some asinine and absurd reason and you say “It’s only $x.xx dollars”. Emmeff if its only $x.xx why are you make a big deal about it? UFC match. Oooh Lawd I feel so much better. This ends my work related rant.

    People who see 3 completely open lanes yet decide to turn into the lane I occupy going 5 miles per hour. Fool you see me.

    Fast food workers. This should be moderate speed marginal quality food workers. Give me food YOU want to eat and service YOU want to receive.

    People who set you up to be the bad guy. Sure you help them in a pinch. But they’re always in a pinch and the minute you want to pull the plug/set them straight you’re mean and they’re giving you the silent treatment and bad mouthing you like you haven’t done a thing for them. Kneegro please, grow up and take responsibility for yourself and stop depending on the kindness of others.

    I would like to say thank you to VSB for this free therapy session. With the rising costs of health care this was a life saver. LOL

    • @Nola Darling,

      Emmeff if its only $x.xx why are you make a big deal about it?

      This should read

      Emmeff if its only $x.xx why are you making a big deal about it?

      I ran out of time to edit. :-)

      You understand my plight. What gets me is the “I think I know what the problem is already so I’m going to tell you how you should fix it” people. Crossface chicken wing. Right there.

    • @Nola Darling, People who see 3 completely open lanes yet decide to turn into the lane I occupy going 5 miles per hour. Fool you see me.

      hmm….you ever been on a train with beaucoup open seats and a mofo sits next to you forcing you to do the “is this fool really doing this lookaround”???

      yep, that’s happened to me.

      • @Panama Jackson,

        tis why i don’t ride Metro no mo…and I always seem to be targeted by..erm…larger folk..da hell?

      • @Panama Jackson,

        I lurk all the time but YESSSSSS!!!! I HATE it when people do that. Idiots! Really, you could have all the space in the world and a full seat to yourself but you just had to come and get cuddly with me, and mess up my commute, and I don’t even know you? Ugh, drives me insane.

  16. What I can’t stand….

    Women who say they get along better with men than women and thats why they have more men friends than women friends. Of course what ninja isn’t going to be your friend, especially if you look good.

    People who lie about a reason for doing something and then later on have this “Coming to Jesus” moment months later and want to tell the truth.

    People who say one thing but their actions do not reflect that. Don’t tell me 20 times how you are going to stop talking to the person… Just Do It ***wish I could put a Nike symbol up***

    And last but not least the body shots on FACEBOOK profile pics…

    • @J Money,

      i hate it when women say they can’t get along with other women. it’s fine to have male friends. but it is soo ugly to think it’s cute to put down your gender to try to make yourself look cool. if a man has a poor opinion of women, a woman’s agreement with that is just going to have him looking at her like a chump. a chump with no da*n friends.

      • @charli skipper, But it is interesting because my boss told me that most women like that have had some type of negative encounter with girls from their past like in high school and that is why they have taken that approach. She majored in psychology but she was right bc that was exactly this one girls problem in our office.

        • @J Money,
          Some women have real, actual issues. Not to judge who is attractive and who isn’t, but i dunno, maybe a woman who other girls were jealous of actually got held down under water by a group of female volleyball players like tiffani amber-thiessen in that movie, and she really has issues. so, whatev. i won’t judge. but it seems like it’s the cool thing nowadays for every mud duck who’s so bitter that she never would have had friendship offers anyway to tout the fact that other “women ain’t sh*t.” um…no boo, that’s you.

  17. panama, i’m on board with your i hate people “that only communicate via text”.

    1) i too hate ‘text-only ninjas’. this phenomenon is spreading like a venereal disease. and what gets me is that these same ‘text only’ individuals can only have fluid conversation via text, but when you talk to them on the phone or in person they go from the singing frog to a mute sack of sh*t. see work friendly bugs bunny reference: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jhq0N4ORYjM

    2) i also hate being a bridesmaid in extravagant weddings. i can’t even tell you how much *more* money i would have in my wallet if i didn’t have to buy a $300 dollar bridesmaid dresses, a $300+ plane ticket, $100 hairdo and $130/night hotel rate TIMES two. i might, just might, have more than 1 piece of real furniture in my apartment. i also hate that i can’t say “no” when these ninjas ask me to be in their wedding. in fact, i’m eloping. why oh why do folks spend this kind of money on weddings? why not put a down payment on a house or a vacation home or better yet pay off my student loans???

    3) i also hate folks that won’t seek counsel. instead, they clutter my life space with their excuses: “what are they going to tell me that i don’t already know?” or “i know, i know” or “i don’t have time.”

    4) i also hate ninjas that make empty promises. i’m not so rigid that i can’t accept apologies or compromises. i’m talking about individuals that simply tell you what you want to hear with no intention of follow through whatsoever. they’re explanation usually centers around the fact that they a) either didn’t think you needed their help/favor/presence or b) swore they allegedly said ‘we’ll see’ after said promise. essentially, they’re habitual liars.

    5) i also hate that there are two (yes, TWO) men in the building next to mine that lie n@ked in the window and j3rk off. i have a very clear view of them from my deck. unfortunately, my neighbor warned me AFTER i was already traumatized. p.s.- they’re creepy, gross, and hairy.

    6) i hate mondays. (and sometimes sundays, because i’m thinking about monday)

    7) and lastly, i hate that no one is online right now at 3:49 am, when i clearly CANNOT go to sleep. i think it’s really inconsiderate of my friends not to be in tune with my insomnia. ;)

    phew. i’m done.

    • @Miss Patterson, 5) i also hate that there are two (yes, TWO) men in the building next to mine that lie n@ked in the window and j3rk off. i have a very clear view of them from my deck. unfortunately, my neighbor warned me AFTER i was already traumatized. p.s.- they’re creepy, gross, and hairy.

      but you keep on watching don’t you?

    • @Miss Patterson,

      daaaaang saks!!! sorry to hear about the living situation with the nasty creepy dudes in the window. ugh!!!

      p.s. i know i owe you an email but i’ve been incognito lately. but i’m BACK!!! i’ll def holla at you.

  18. i mean, while i understand why people hate the texters, i have a counter to that. i da*n hate when somebody never has anything to talk about, calls me at inconvenient times, and never lets me get off the phone without making me write a 7 page letter, YET wants to get an attitude when i dont pick up the phone and, instead, reply with a “what?” text. uh uh…..when you learn to get off the phone, i’ll learn to answer it.

    i hate people with facebook statuses that try to be extra deep or too positive or put somebody (usually a significant other) on blast…yet tomorrow, they’re going to be friends with that person….for a while…um, baby:
    #1: facebook is not the place for you to turn into ghandi.
    #2: statuses like, “cory is headed to work to make this paper. i know i’m destined for success. watch me work b*tches! LET’S GET IT!!!” are wack. and so are you.
    #3: when you air out your issues with your baby daddy on facebook every other day, yet continue to live with him, it makes me want to F your life.

    i hate it when men that have no reasonable chance with you—yet did, YEARS ago, and blew it—try to make up for old time now by being a day late and a dollar short. it’s very inconsiderate for you to make me have to bear the burden of not hurting your weak a*s feelings. stop being selfish. however, thanks for the bday present.

    • @charli skipper, Your 1, 2, and 3 were right on. How about those statuses that are like a paragraph. After sentence 2 I am done reading.

    • @charli skipper, totally with you on the texts… some people really do call you and either have absolutely nothing to say or call you and talk your ear off and won’t let you get a word in edgewise or get off the phone without being rude…
      those are the people who get the follow up “what?” text when I see their number on the caller ID

      talking on the phone is such a commitment because I don’t multitask well on the phone in order to have a functional phone call I have to stop what I’m doing…with texts I can enter or exit the conversation at will

    • @charli skipper,
      I am a text only-ninja. I hardly ever answer my phone to talk. People are remarkably uninteresting on the phone, but when they text they tend to put their thoughts down in a clear and concise manner. I can also take my time responding to a text, unlike phone conversations which require contant “uh huhs”, “whats”, “you don’t says”, and “please continues”.

      I have also ruined multiple phones by texting in the shower.

    • @charli skipper,

      when you learn to get off the phone, i’ll learn to answer it.

      Preach that gospel, Charli Skipper! :)

  19. ooh, also i hate when women that are all around raggedy try to pick out something about you that they don’t like and school you about it…and expect to be taken seriously. really? you don’t like how high i’m wearing my ponytail today? you look like a witch from a storybook.

    i hate sallie mae.

    i hate it when people wear expensive clothes but still looke a country as*ed, undone mess.

    i hate it when dudes try to holla and have long, dirty fingernails. ew. really? what we gone do, exactly? ew.

    • @charli skipper, speaking of fingernails. i hate, and i do mean HATE the LONG pinky nail. seriously brothas? really? grrrrrrrrrrrrr.

      • @Miss Patterson,
        i don’t even mind if it’s a man in a work uniform looking like he might be an airplane mechanic (lol). but if you are 20 years old, wearin a fresh outfit, and look like you just climbed off yo momma’s couch, there is no reason for your nails to be dirty. you just look triflin.

    • @charli skipper,

      i hate it when dudes try to holla and have long, dirty fingernails. ew. really? what we gone do, exactly? ew.

      i am soooooo with you on this!!!! i dont even like CLEAN long nails. them sh*ts are GROSS. and unless you’re a mechanic or some other blue collar job that requires you to get your strong, manly hands dirty, there’s NO reason for your ish to be dirty.

  20. and i HATE facebook chat!! what is it about a chat mechanism that makes ninjas that you have never talked to in life feel comfortable to hit you up at 2am while youre tryin to do your bored facebook sweep before bed? “hey what you doin?” um……..it’s 2 in the morning and i don’t know you. what the h*ll do you think i’m doin?

    • @charli skipper, and that shyt always pops up and scares me.
      this chick is slick facebook stalking me.. I mean we were friends in highschool but I hadnt spoken with the chick in 14 years. I swear everytime she see’s me log on she is like “whats up” .. she also happened to have kids with my ex boyfriend who is now married to my cousin. Chile I dont want to talk about that shyt.. I dont really fux with her and I dayum shole dont fux with you… so your love triangle and child support issues need to move on while I try to find out which 2pac song I should name my next child after….

      • @shay_d_lady,
        “I swear everytime she see’s me log on she is like “whats up” ”

        yes! how come you know exactly when I log on? are you just sitting in your bed on the computer, watching your friends list? no maam.

    • @charli skipper, this is so true. as infrequently as i am on facebook, i’m often surprised at how many folks will hit me up the second i log on like…

      is this XXXXXXXX?
      me: um, yeah ninja. you hit me up. you seented the pic.
      them: hey, how are you?
      me: irritated, but that’s about to get fixed.
      logoff.

    • @charli skipper,
      i too hate facebook chat. a kid from high school who was mentally challenged (i dunno what he has or what the correct terminology is so forgive me) found me on facebook and whenever im online he is guaranteed to be, and facebook ims me talkin bout “call me! i lost your number” or some variation of that missing letters when all i can think is “u never were supposed to have my number in the first place”.

      his name is elvis.

      and then another guy who friended me because we have the same last name facebook ims me talkin bout “hey cousin!” every other day.

      no. we are not related. you look nothing like me. and if we are you’re gross for flirting with your cousin, you dirty troll you.

      maybe i should just quit facebook. im done now.

      • @Chasdizz,

        LOL! Not “Elvis”!

        I can’t stand the facebook chat 95% of the time. I mostly log on as offline now because of folks who decide to up and send me an IM or whateverthef*ck Facebook calls it.

    • @charli skipper, I hate facebook chat too so I leave my status as offline…cut all that facebook chat crap off completely….

      the chat thing used to pop up and my curser would move from whatever I was doing to the chat window….irked the hell out of me…

      • @Stuff Ghetto People Like,
        facebook is an essential part of e-life.

        i like parts of facebook, just not the chat…and sometimes not the picture tagging. you can’t say “hey i dont like traffic (in atlanta) so im not gonna drive anymore” cuz if you did, you’d be sad…and forced to bother people for rides. and ending up on this list yet again.

    • @charli skipper,

      Facebook chat has led to a lot of action for yours truly. It was a good add on. I manage my friends lists to ensure that certain people never see me online.

    • @Saule Wright, Tell me about it!! SMH..I’m always like negro please you aren’t on the phone while at work. Turn it off and get back to work!!

    • @Saule Wright, you know what irritates me about cell phone people? folks that hold the cell phone on the ear when they’re listening, but then when they have to talk pull it around directly in front of their face. dude, the mic is sensitive enough that you can STILL be heard with the phone cradling your ear. these same folks also talk extra loud.

      i also can’t stand those nokia walkie talkie things on the bus or in public places. they’re for engineers and construction workers, NOT for you and your man who choose to argue on speaker phone. i used to see a lot more of this in cali, thank God it doesn’t happen in the Burgh.

    • @Saule Wright,

      I know, they look like robots. Mofo you ain’t a telemarketer*, put that mess down.

      *Actually, bluetooth obsessives and telemarketers have a lot in common. They’re both annoying and unecessary.

  21. People who say things like, “You ain’t hip-hop because you don’t know who ________ is!” This was shown heavily right after Baatin of Slum Village died, folks were getting slammed for asking who he was… I am a Slum Village fan and all, but I DO understand they weren’t the most well known group (and this was coming from folks who didn’t know who Dilla was until HE died…), I was irritated bc folks could have sent the unknowing folks a link to some music, take it as an opportunity to introduce some folks to the music you like, simple as that.

    • @Naturally Alise,

      how bout the folks who go on about how much they hate lil wayne & “mainstream hip hop” cuz that ain’t hip hop.

      my friend on facebook made a whole big ol note about ppl who are real hip hop like common and mos def. i wanted to punch her in her lazy eye.

      • @jana.love,

        how bout the folks who go on about how much they hate lil wayne & “mainstream hip hop” cuz that ain’t hip hop.

        You know who irritate me more than those folks? Folks who keep saying that hip-hop is dead and there is no good new music out… and yet don’t even seek the GREAT stuff that comes out… Effin’ revisionists and sh!t!

    • @Naturally Alise,
      “People who say things like, “You ain’t hip-hop because you don’t know who ________ is!” This was shown heavily right after Baatin of Slum Village died, folks were getting slammed for asking who he was… I am a Slum Village fan and all, but I DO understand they weren’t the most well known group (and this was coming from folks who didn’t know who Dilla was until HE died…), ”

      Cosign 100%. As much as a “hip-hop head” I realize that no one listens to the ish I do. No only that but Dilla and Baatin were average MC’s at best. T3 is just wack. But together they made good music. I wish I could have gone to the ?estlove dedication to him here this past Saturday.

      • @Humble_One, yeah, individually, everybody who rapped in slum village (except elzhi) blew major ass.

        in fact, i remember when folks were all on fantastic voyage, vol.2 like it was great. to this day i still don’t understand that.

        though i will say that the beat for “fall in love” is one of my favorite beats EVER. music lore has it that the beat for “fall in love” inspired d’angelo’s voodoo album, which almost makes sense as sparse as that album is in parts.

        • @Panama Jackson,
          “though i will say that the beat for “fall in love” is one of my favorite beats EVER”

          YES!!!! I could listen to that beat on a continual loop, it’s so chill.

    • @Naturally Alise, you know I love this post!
      hip hop is not only defined as little known ninjas with twists and mellow beats LMAO

        • @miss t-lee,

          I used to think that, but then Kanye started doing a Billy Idol Impression, and skinny jeans, tight shirts and wallet chains came into fashion.

          So now I’m confroosed.

  22. One thing that “grinds my gears” LOL@that phrase..is how people ask me or people in general stupid questions that they no d*mn well we don’t know the answers to! It’s like asking someone why did how do you do a certain funtion (@ work) and the person knows you have nothing to do with that certain job function! SMH..I am like really dude do you really want me to answer that question b/c you won’t get the answer you are looking for.

    Another thing that boils my blood: is how people claim to have an “open door” policy as for being able to communicate with them freely and openly and then as soon as you say something to them they belittle your every statement WTF Mate. I thought you said that we are cool enough to talk about anything but as soon as I say something you treat it like it is nothing to you! Got to love being in the military!!! ish is for the birds!!!

  23. has left me in some euphoric state that even though I have to get up in 4.5 hours to travel 2 hours to a job that I get paid to do absolutely nothing, except put on a charade that I actually get paid 3x minimum wage (thank you tax payers) to do something… only to travel 2 hours back home and do it ALL again for the next 5 days…
    I cant say I join u on that sentament… Im not on vaca and I still must travel my 2 hours to work….. but hold up u got a boyfriend and u dont tell ur bro? I’m hurt, offended, taken a back…. ok…. moment over… but I hate friends that dont fill u in on the big things in their lives just because its summer break and they havent actually seen u since May… btw ur on my list…

  24. i really hate broke ppl who still want to do something. how the h3ll you wanna go to six flags with $5?? AND THEN don’t wanna drink from the fountain? pffffffft, watch me as i down a large slushie & a lemonade IN YO FACE. you just a friend of a friend…i don’t know you and i ain’t sharin.

    my friend who just had a baby and is mad that i got “time for other ppl n not her”. guess what homie, all that random stuff we used to do is OVER. there is no more 5 min warning of me coming to your house and having an adventure. get a sitter that won’t play you and let’s talk.

    ppl with no cars that always wanna go somewhere. wth.

    hot blk dudes with average white chicks. at least get a hot white chick. i never see hot white boys and average blk girls. i only see creepy, pale, pedophile-lookin white boys with average girls.

    • @jana.love,
      “ppl with no cars that always wanna go somewhere. wth. ”

      Oh mayne!! I had to fired one of my homegirls for this ish. Calling me asking me if I wanna go do something. Of course, this all hinges on me going because I have the car.
      TFOH!

      • @miss t-lee,

        OMG I had a homegirl like this and she lived in my apartment complex! Talkin bout, “I feel like some ice cream, wanna go get some?”

        No broad, I don’t. Had I wanted ice cream, I’d have gone and got some IN MY CAR. I used to ignore the hell outta those texts. If she stopped buying shoes from Aldo everyday, she’d have had money for a car a long time ago….

        • @8th Wonder,

          lmao i’m the friend that is always down for getting something i hadn’t even thought about until some one else mentioned it.

        • @8th Wonder,
          LOL
          Right?! That’s the beauty of having your own set of wheels.
          Sounds like we knew the same girl.

    • @jana.love, my friend who just had a baby and is mad that i got “time for other ppl n not her”. guess what homie, all that random stuff we used to do is OVER. there is no more 5 min warning of me coming to your house and having an adventure. get a sitter that won’t play you and let’s talk.

      ouch, baby. very ouch. lol.

      • @Panama Jackson,

        yesterday she said “i got a sitter, let’s go to the beach” i was at her house in 30 mins…her mom (the sitter) went to the “bank” and was gonna “be right back” and ended up staying till 7PM.

        i sweat my ass off in my bathing suit, i coulda just swam in my own filth. talk about being PLAYED.

        next time, i’m goin dolo or bringin somebody else.

  25. Me hates…

    1) Giant, Safeway, Superfresh, etc front end managers…These bamas KNOW folks get off work between 5-6p and then go to the supermarket to get stuff for dinner. WHY IN THE WORLD would you send all but 2 of your cashiers on break?!?! All I wanted was some olive oil and granola bars…now I gotta wait in a long arse line as far back as the meat department cause your dumb arse don’t pay attention to time…

    2) Comcast Cable can suck giant, sweaty, african monkey balls. “A service technician will be at your residence between 11a and 4:30p…” WHAT??? So after I take the day off and wait forever for this guy to show up, he calls at 5:20p to say he’s running late…NO SHEET SHERLOCK!!!

    3) Females thats forever popping on their gum. Like its something ingrained in them that refuses to let them chew gum like a civilized person. I should not think someone is firing a gun everytime you chew down on your gum….

    4) People that ask me if I know what something is and when I say yes, proceed to tell me what it is anyway…
    Them: Yo, Coco! You ever heard of spaghetti?
    Me: Yes
    Them: You know, the long pasta with the sauce?
    Me: Didn’t you hear me when I said yes the first time?!
    Them: It’s an italian dish. Some people put meat in their sauce and some don’t AND you can you thin spaghetti noodles or regular noodles……

    woosah….

    • @CoCoPuffs,

      Comcast in DC is very flexible. They have started giving you an option of when they stop by. I choose between 5-8 of course, this fool rolled up after 8.

  26. …gettin really irritated with folk who are inviting themselves to be in our wedding…Slim…I don’t like you and you know this..why come you want to be friends with me now…heffa

    …self righteous people…take your head out cha @ss and maybe your breath won’t smell like so much sh!t

    people with 50-leven degrees…yeah so you have a triple doctorate in the mating habits of the monchichi…da heyell that got to do with us going to have drinks at Ozios?

    jealous friends…why you hating? you’re married and don’t want to go home most days cuz you can’t stand your hubby…what dat got to do with me? i ain’t marry his @ss…….i’m happy leave me alone or at least try to fake your happy. just cuz you’re miserable, doesn’t mean i’m going to be.

    • @Smiley Face, people with 50-leven degrees…yeah so you have a triple doctorate in the mating habits of the monchichi…da heyell that got to do with us going to have drinks at Ozios?

      so you hate people who have mulitple degrees? or people who have to work b/c of their mulitpie degrees and cause you to miss happy hour at ozio’s?

      btw, people still go to ozio’s?????

    • @Smiley Face,

      yeah so you have a triple doctorate in the mating habits of the monchichi

      i.cant. *dead*

  27. ***putting on arsonist cap***

    i know that actually naming the blog you have an issue with is breaking an unspoken blog rule/taboo, but its monday and i havent had my toast yet

    in#2, p’s referring to a couple comments i left on whataboutourdaughters.com friday afternoon, and the replies from the blog mistress angrily dismissing them. i was called a “disruption” for offering polite dissent with the views expressed in an entry about interracial dating, and was basically told to get my ball(s) and go the f*ck home, lol

    although i can’t really complain about this because its within a blogger’s rights to do and say whatever the hell they want on their blog, its within my rights to call out assholes on mine.

    and, while I do appreciate waod.com for making me aware of certain stories i was completely unaware of (ie: the dunbar village case), faith (the guest blogger over at waod.com who wrote the aforementioned entry) and anyone else who automatically discounts and dismisses any disagreement with their bullsh*t opinions is a gaping asshole.

    time for toast. peace.

    • @The Champ,
      *thinking* Champ don’t ever share his toast….I mean dang…other folk want toast too

    • @The Champ,
      So I moseyed on over there to check that out and um…she’s quite the piece of work.

    • @The Champ,

      I went. I read. That “host/moderator” fdow is full of shite.

      Not only did she accuse you of inciting a “we can’t always blame the black man” riot, which i’m assuming would be bad for business. but she also very subtly accused another commenter of posing as a woman. *smh*

      if she is truly attempting to uplift black women, i think she and her cosigners are gonna need to loosen their headwraps just a li’l bit…

    • @The Champ, I’m a reader of that blog, and I see stuff like that all the time, and it’s usually directed toward men mostly, but in general, anybody who disagrees with the OP and the majority of the commenters. I appreciate all of the information they give out, but it can get a little monolithic over there sometime.

        • @Nicki Sunshine, not just men haters. but women who basically refuse to hear, acknowledge, contemplate other sides of the same situation, and who refuse all other attempts to analyze and solve the problems. Champ didn’t say anytyhing crazy, and he and a few other commenters (i think 2 others) were pretty much dead on in their analysis of some of the issues. A lot of the people there just don’t like real, honest debate. It’s sad really, b/c we are all in this thing together, black men and black women.

    • @The Champ, LOL
      2 tears in a bucket.. so f!ck it champ
      some people is just with the shyt
      however at least she didnt take your comment down, which a lot of a$$hole blog writers do when you dont agree with them.

      • @shay_d_lady, She typically only keeps up comments she disagrees with in order to make an example of that commenter (and she gives herself the last word.) It’s not really a good faith attempt at being open.

      • @shay_d_lady, oh but she kept on in moderation for a while and ONLY posted it to say, “i told you once but you keep trying. shut the f*ck up”

        it’s like she thought she was sonnin’ him.

        i’ve had that happen before. things like that get ugly…mostly cuz i’m evil.

        • @Panama Jackson,

          Wow, the moderator there has a habit of frontin’ off people who comment. She even tried to treat another commenter that wrote a long comment basically saying, “Your comment was soo long but you couldn’t just said this”. WOW.

          I not only welcome disagreeing opinions, I encourage them. Please believe I will be firm in my opinion if it’s something I feel strongly about, but I would NEVER disregard someone’s opinion as, “trying to disrupt the forum”. And it’s funny how she chastized Champ for stating his opinion as fact (he didn’t) when she was actually the offender of that particular crime.

          Wow…

    • @The Champ,
      I started checking out WAOD about a month ago and I was shocked at how much of an echo chamber that place can be at times. I got into it Faith two or three times before I realized she’s only guest blogging and it’s not her site. The way she was talking I would have thought she invented the damn internet along with Al Gore, let alone that it was her site. I think her last day was Friday, so hopefully the managing of comments is different now.

      • @Scipio Africanus,
        The way she was talking I would have thought she invented the damn internet along with Al Gore

        ***guffaws***

    • @The Champ, Wow! I read those comments. That chick is CRAZY! I like her blog but that child needs some prayer or a hug or something. ionno. But she’s straight batsh*t, for real.

    • @The Champ, wow! where did *her hate* come from? it went from 0 to 60 on the crazy chart.

      on a serious note, i thought you were very tactful in your delivery and made valid points in your comments. i think for a lot of people self-examination is a scary thing. what happened on that blog is akin to an abuse victim being told by their therapist that they have the power to take control of their lives and they react violently because they STILL want to blame the perpetrator.

      what i’ve learned from this is that when you mix the Black Hat with topics like self-worth, self-esteem, and desire, 99.9% time it ends up with a whole lot of hurtful dialogue. i think we have a long way to go before we can all discuss these topics without dismissive and immature behavior. put it this way, our community as a whole AND individually needs therapy. and this is not a dis’, this is the truth. there’s a whole lot of hurt out there that people aren’t recognizing in themselves and it’s scary when it can be triggered by the slightest dissent.

    • @The Champ, NOW she got the nerve to post something today called “and i bid you adieu”. lawd haver mercy.

    • @The Champ, when I read the OP, I just KNEW you were talking about that site! Their rep precedes them. They’re also responsible for that site dateawhiteguy.blogspot.com. There’s a hardcore agenda through so many of their articles that mention Black men to demonize them, as if we’re irredeemable…biggest self-hating bullsh*t I’ve ever seen.

      • @Stuff Ghetto People Like,
        “They’re also responsible for that site dateawhiteguy.blogspot.com.”

        Oh wow. I didn’t know that was them too….lol
        Wow.

    • @The Champ,

      Yo, I checked it out. Here was the moderator getting at somebody else for disagreeing with her:

      @Monie What goes on in the Jewish community has NOTHING to do with this post. If you personally don’t support the free agency of black women to choose whomever they wish to mate with you should be a silent observer for the remainder of this conversation.

      We are not going to be sidetracked into a debate about this. You are blocking the path that other women may wish to take and I will NOT allow that.

      How the hell you gonna have a debate if everybody who disagrees with you is regulated to a position of silent dissent? What the hell is that? That’s a damn shame.

  28. I also hate..
    Sallie Mae and all things student loan related
    5 day work weeks
    ignant mofos who think that their degrees prove intelligence…. no it proves that stupid people fall through the cracks

    oj da juice mane
    plies
    unnecessary soulja boy hate by grown a$$ people
    uppity black folks that deem everything they dont like as ‘coonery’
    not being able to slap a bytch in public for talking reckless without the possibility of jail time
    people who take themselves and their opinions to seriously
    toast from a toaster oven.. its not toast if there are no butter spots in the corners its just dried a$$ bread
    room temperature beverages

    • @shay_d_lady, though i hate oj da ju-man…that fool knows how to end up on banging beats don’t he???

      i love ‘wasted’ right now. that beat is so insanely sick. gucci mane actually has a pretty good ear. to bad he isn’t mute.

      • @Panama Jackson, i love ‘wasted’ right now. that beat is so insanely sick. gucci mane actually has a pretty good ear. to bad he isn’t mute.

        LOL thats why I didnt put gucci on the list.. now he is one thats so ignant it goes around and a circle and ends up ignantly awesome sometimes… LMAO

      • @Panama Jackson,
        i love ‘wasted’ right now. that beat is so insanely sick. gucci mane actually has a pretty good ear. to bad he isn’t mute.
        me too. but i also like ice cream paint job…

    • @shay_d_lady,

      “Sallie Mae and all things student loan related”

      Sallie Mae is definitely one trick I wanna whoop. Wait ’til I see her…

    • @shay_d_lady,

      unnecessary soulja boy hate by grown a$$ people

      Yes!!! I usually tell those people to get a grip because chances are, they are NOT the intended audience. Gosh!

  29. Do you know what really grinds my gears (Peter Griffin’ style)?

    1. Accidental eye contact and the fake close lipped smile.

    2. My co worker always peeping her bulldog head into my office where I am peacefully working (re: Reading BLOGS) and being nosey.

    3. My homegirl who repeatedly asks me to go out when I’ve told her I AM DONE WITH PARTYING IN LOUISVILLE.

      • @Dante_Alexander, Seee?? You know what I’m talm’bout.

        There are a ton of parties with 2520 girls and black men.. the black men aren’t looking at the black women.

        And the chicks I am talking about are 2520 so of course, they like to go out.

      • @Stuff Ghetto People Like, I think it is…

        The only thing we are really lacking in are good parties for the sophisticated urban (if you will)…. they always end up getting hood and getting shut down.

  30. I’m mad that Asians are opening barber shops with names like “Kings Barbershop”, not Quing’s but mother effin King’s to trick people. Now I have to exercise the only type of racism I condone, which is I will only let black people (and maybe Puerto Ricans) cut my hair, by walking out of an empty barbershop while some Asian lady runs behind me talkin’ ’bout “we cut YOUR hair too” (no YOU don’t, stop lyin’).

  31. how do i hate thee, let me count the ways….

    1. i hate when people call me and then proceed to have a separate convo with another person while talking to me. my homegirl does this shyt all the time…she calls and while we’re on the phone, her bf has to talk to her about some random shyt. I’m sorry, but that shyt is rude and my time in valuable. I’ve gotten to the place where I don’t answer her calls.

    2. i despise black people who call other black people “bourgie” for not liking ignorant shyt. really, for NOT liking ignorant shyt…really. You know, calling people bourgie b/c they enunciate and shyt…read and shyt….think critically and shyt.

    3, I hate all of these people who are still mad at Michael Vick. THEY WERE DOGS!!!

    • @N.I.A. naturally,
      “1. i hate when people call me and then proceed to have a separate convo with another person while talking to me. my homegirl does this shyt all the time…she calls and while we’re on the phone, her bf has to talk to her about some random shyt. ”

      Do like I do and hang up on her. Apparently that other convo is much more important.

      • @miss t-lee,

        i usually just tell her i have other things to do, and then hang up. it wouldn’t be so bad if i hadn’t told her that it bothers me…and yet she continues. i almost think she does it just so she can remind me that she’s boo’ed up now. yeah, i’m starting to get a little tired of this “friendship”.

        • @N.I.A. naturally,

          Yes, hang up. If they really wanted anything, they’ll call back.

          Also, when people click over to answer another call, they have 10 seconds. If they are not back on the phone with me in 10 seconds, I hang up. No questions, no call backs, I just hang up. If they wanna talk, they’ll call right back.

          • @Dante_Alexander,
            I thought I was the only one with the 10 second rule…hahahha
            I don’t care either, even my Dad will hafta call back if he clicks over on me.

          • @miss t-lee,

            Oh yeah, anybody gets it with me. I’ve hung up on my Moms, Pops, anybody who leaves me on hold for an extended period of time. If they call back, they call back. If not… just as good.

          • @Dante_Alexander,

            I have a 30 second rule..believe me I count…you put me on hold or start talking to someone else, you have 30 seconds to remember that you called me

          • @Dante_Alexander, oh yeah, 10 seconds is all you get with me. my mother is notorious for clicking over, and having conversations while i’m on hold. I started hanging up on her back in 2004. She’s better now….

      • @miss t-lee,

        Word. I hate that ish too. This phone got my ear sweating and you tryin’ to have multiple convos with other folks while you on the phone with me? CLICK!

        The dial tone will listen to ya now…

  32. There are a few things that really make my soul itch lately…

    1. Fake eyelashes applied by the STRIP. Looking like a &*^! spider collector about the face. Stop it. Now.

    2. Kitchen weaves. Your cousin is a receptionist for a reason. Keep her out yo head

    3. Maxi dresses on women that are extra over maxi plus. They are supposed to flow, as if the ocean breeze was blowing through as you sashay on the beach. Not grip your rolls like saran wrap.

    3a. Out of control breasts. Harness them thangs, especially in a cheap maxi dress…

    4. My coworker: oh, you just kinda snuck in
    Me (at my desk checking email posting to VSB ): Did you need me for something?
    stank heffa: No, just didnt know you were here.
    Why do you need to know my whereabouts?! I do not work for you

    5. MFers constantly in need. Man/woman the f*ck up and handle yours.

    6. People who don’t speak. I am Southern and for that reason genetically predisposed to acknowledge the presence of all other beings, up to and including Satan. Rude a$$ heathens!

    co-worker feeling chattty…be back later

    • @EbonyI, LMAO @ #3! I was too through this weekend…walking around like they are Morticia Adams, lol

    • @EbonyI, #4—oh i can’t stand that sh*t. AT ALL. btw, can we swear again on VSB? i’m just wondering because I’ve been seeing a whole lot of adult language on here lately. let me know, so i can cuss too.

  33. Things I despise (hate is such a strong word. I may not care if something disappears from this Earth today, but I still don’t HATE it)…

    1. Using the word “Hate” to describe any dissent from the Status Quo. I’m not “Hating” if I wonder why you feel the need to pull out something close to a stack to pay for your $3 Apple-Tini, corksmoker, I’m just wondering WHY you had to do it for YOUR drink, cuz you turned right around and looked around the bar to see if anybody noticed. Only me, and it wasn’t cuz I’m a fruit. It was because I wanted to steal your money right out of your hand for like .002 seconds. But I’m not a thief. But I do hate you. Not ON you, but YOU. Just YOU.
    2. Internet Dating. I can’t understand the whole concept of “I don’t have the time to meet people” or whatever. Because if you find a match on the site, you STILL have to date them, and it’s STILL a crap shoot. How’s about you get out of the house, and go notice the difference between douchebag and debonair the way the rest of us do: by getting liquored up in a bar and basing your choice solely on looks and style. As a side note, I think I once joined ALL of those sites to try to bag diamond in the rough chicks with low self-esteem. It did not pan out. So I’m stuck with the aforementioned old fashioned way. I like that better than getting drunk and perusing Match.com. The latter is just sad.
    3. Atlanta. It’s actually a love/hate thing, but hear me out: I was spoiled to think all cities would be Atlanta. I took for granted the amount of beautiful people with light eyes and sheet that inhabit the A. now that I’ve moved away, everyone is from Mississippi. By that I mean ugly. I know it ain’t the way to think, but dammit, I been in this piece for almost 6 months, and I could name on my hands the amount of 8-9.5s I seen in BMore. Maybe they just all hang in one building or something, and if I find that building, I’ll have hit the jackpot. I’ll keep you posted.
    4. Thong Sandals.
    5. The State of Illinois (it’s a legal thing).
    6. Amusement Parks NOT named Cedar Point. I’m sorry, but all other Amusement parks make me puke in my mouth with their sheer level of ineptitude in terms of rides compared to The King. I’ve been to almost all the Six Flags (there’s like 82 of them now, right?), The Dells, Some boolsheet in New Hampshire, among others, and if Disneyworld wasn’t sprinkled with magic fairy dust and all enchanting and sheet, it’d be the biggest waste of time in terms of rides.
    7. Tuesdays. Is there a more irrelevant day? Like, Mondays, we expect bad sheet to happen, and act accordingly (Jean Grae actually called a chick Fourtney Farfashian for the chick saying she was “Unfunny on Twitter” just a few moments ago). Wednesdays are hump-day. Thursdays you’re like “Ahh… Tomorrow is Friday”. Friday is the weekend, just got paid, party’s jumping… getting down. Booty shaking, all around, etc. Saturday is the only day you don’t have to worry about waking up early (unless you have to work, then I’m sorry for bringing up that sore spot…), and Sunday is both a lazy chill day and the day before the work week begins again. What can you say about Tuesday? Anything? Yeah… Fook Tuesday.

    Anyway, I prolly could go on forever, because I work with the dumbest fooking idiot alive. But I’ll refrain. Have at it, folks!

    • @Dante_Alexander,

      Okay, if you live in MD, we’re gonna have to have another VSB happy hour, because you crack me the HELL up.

      That is all.

    • @Dante_Alexander,
      I was vibin wit your sincerity up until #2. Then you started coonin’ and I loved it!LMAO @ “How’s about you get out of the house, and go notice the difference between douchebag and debonair the way the rest of us do: by getting liquored up in a bar and basing your choice solely on looks and style.” and “beautiful people wit light eyes” iDied

      • @AngelicNastyness,

        Wait… did we change the meaning of “Coonin” the way we re-took back the word “nigra”? Cuz if we did, I didn’t get the memo. Does it mean “typing”? or should I say “Coon Deez”? I’m confroosed.

        Either way, I’ve been meaning to tell you that your name is fooking dope. I can only imagine how one gets a name like that.

        It’s like naming a kid “Ace” or “Boss”. He’s just destined to be great. Or crazy. Or both.

        • @Dante_Alexander,
          Lol Cooning evolved from my HU days but I said it specifically referencing what someone said in an above post about bougie people calling out ‘coonery’.
          I consider myself an Intellectual Coonist (holds monocal to my left eye, then my right) so I applaud certain specific types of coonery i.e. if it amuses me. Brava!

          Thanx for the name love:-) And yes I am in fact destined to be crazy and great.

  34. Hahaha! I love a hatefest! Today is a great day for it :)

    I hate when black folk are always trying to talk down the price of something!! HATE IT! This is why the Iranians and Koreans supermark shyt up in our communities in the first place – cause black folk are always tryna get a hook up. If I say it cost $30.00 don’t come back at me and ask if you can get it for $2o.00 – NO! And blackfolks DON’T go into Macy’s wit’ that bullshyt – but want to come at me wit’ it. GRRRR! Just STOP IT!

    I’m hating the Pittsburgh Police right now. Long story. I’m not sharing either hahaha :)

    Hamburger meat. Cooked out yesterday and woke up at 3:00am feeling sick as a dog. I’m sooo done with red meat. I think.

      • @Miss Patterson, lol. It’s ok, really. Everyone is alright. Just a lil’ run-in. I’m sorry about your neighbors. BLECH!! That has to suck.

    • @pgh muse, if one pays full price when he could have haggled it down, that’s on him. That’s being a good shopper…we’re all doing it now in this wrecked economy. You think 2520s ain’t doing it too?

      • @Stuff Ghetto People Like, You think 2520s ain’t doing it too?

        Weeeelll, I do art shows and stuff. And in my experience 2520′s are usually like “That’s all?” When I quote them a price, because I price my stuff reasonably from the start. The markup on jewelry and some other arty things is usually astronomical, like some people mark stuff up like 2 to 300 percent as an industry standard. I don’t do anywhere near that. Anywhere. And Black folk habitually be trying to talk down my fair prices. it’s hard out here for a small business. I’m not complaining. Imma just do what everybody else does. Tell u it cost x and when u ax for the hook up Imma say, sure I’ll let it go for this – like ur getting a deal when ur really not.

  35. Things I despise

    1. Using the word “Hate” to describe any dissent from the Status Quo. I’m not “Hating” if I wonder why you feel the need to pull out something close to a stack to pay for your $3 Apple-Tini, corksmoker, I’m just wondering WHY you had to do it for YOUR drink, cuz you turned right around and looked around the bar to see if anybody noticed. Only me, and it wasn’t cuz I’m a fruit. It was because I wanted to steal your money right out of your hand for like .002 seconds. But I’m not a thief. But I do hate you. Not ON you, but YOU. Just YOU.

    2. Internet Dating. I can’t understand the whole concept of “I don’t have the time to meet people” or whatever. Because if you find a match on the site, you STILL have to date them, and it’s STILL a crap shoot. How’s about you get out of the house, and go notice the difference between douchebag and debonair the way the rest of us do: by getting liquored up in a bar and basing your choice solely on looks and style. As a side note, I think I once joined ALL of those sites to try to bag diamond in the rough chicks with low self-esteem. It did not pan out. So I’m stuck with the aforementioned old fashioned way. I like that better than getting drunk and perusing Match.com. The latter is just sad.

    3. Atlanta. It’s actually a love/hate thing, but hear me out: I was spoiled to think all cities would be Atlanta. I took for granted the amount of beautiful people with light eyes and sheet that inhabit the A. now that I’ve moved away, everyone is from Mississippi. By that I mean ugly. I know it ain’t the way to think, but dammit, I been in this piece for almost 6 months, and I could name on my hands the amount of 8-9.5s I seen in BMore. Maybe they just all hang in one building or something, and if I find that building, I’ll have hit the jackpot. I’ll keep you posted.

    4. Thong Sandals.

    5. The State of Illinois (it’s a legal thing).

    6. Amusement Parks NOT named Cedar Point. I’m sorry, but all other Amusement parks make me puke in my mouth with their sheer level of ineptitude in terms of rides compared to The King. I’ve been to almost all the Six Flags (there’s like 82 of them now, right?), The Dells, Some boolsheet in New Hampshire, among others, and if Disneyworld wasn’t sprinkled with magic fairy dust and all enchanting and sheet, it’d be the biggest waste of time in terms of rides.

    7. Tuesdays. Is there a more irrelevant day? Like, Mondays, we expect bad sheet to happen, and act accordingly (Jean Grae actually called a chick Fourtney Farfashian for the chick saying she was “Unfunny on Twitter” just a few moments ago). Wednesdays are hump-day. Thursdays you’re like “Ahh… Tomorrow is Friday”. Friday is the weekend, just got paid, party’s jumping… getting down. Booty shaking, all around, etc. Saturday is the only day you don’t have to worry about waking up early (unless you have to work, then I’m sorry for bringing up that sore spot…), and Sunday is both a lazy chill day and the day before the work week begins again. What can you say about Tuesday? Anything? Yeah… Fook Tuesday.

    Anyway, I prolly could go on forever, because I work with the dumbest fooking idiot alive. But I’ll refrain. Have at it, folks!

    • @Dante_Alexander, 3. Atlanta. It’s actually a love/hate thing, but hear me out: I was spoiled to think all cities would be Atlanta. I took for granted the amount of beautiful people with light eyes and sheet that inhabit the A. now that I’ve moved away, everyone is from Mississippi. By that I mean ugly. I know it ain’t the way to think, but dammit, I been in this piece for almost 6 months, and I could name on my hands the amount of 8-9.5s I seen in BMore. Maybe they just all hang in one building or something, and if I find that building, I’ll have hit the jackpot. I’ll keep you posted.

      i’m mad you called ugly chicks mississippian. lol. though i’ve done it before. so basically, i’m saying,

      bigups.

      lol. and i love cedar point too.

    • @Dante_Alexander,
      now that I’ve moved away, everyone is from Mississippi. By that I mean ugly.

      man, why you got me up in here defending Mississippi? all I have to say is that I’ve been to Flint and Romulus, dude, ain’t nothing in Mississippi can top the Mothras with jheri’s from up that way. Good Lord.

      • @T. Troy Stewart,

        Flint and Romulus are both in Mississippi North, AKA the area in, around, and about Flint/Saginaw.

        In fact, the whole state of Michigan is pretty big boned, actually. The only reason we had so many nice looking chicks in The D was sheer numbers. But now since everyone is moving away… Well… We’re beginning to look a lot like Mississippi. More than before.

          • @T. Troy Stewart,

            I’m going back for another round of “Who wants to marry a guy making $40K?” in a couple months. You’re free to join. Anything over $18K is considered “Rich” and “Worthy of doing disgusting things to her”.

            Last time I won.

        • @Dante_Alexander,

          I was shocked at how country Flint and Saginaw are. You can throw Ypsilanti and Romulus in there too. They had me asking myself if I was in the North.

          • @Humble_One,

            Did anyone watch the Jemele Hill interview with Charles Rogers the other day?

            If you don’t know what HUmble_One is talking about, please check out ESPN.com and watch the interview.

            THAT’S how country we’re talking about here… You think you know, but you have no idea…

      • @Humble_One,

        Since I love me some Brooklyn women, and have the scratches on body parts both appropriate and inappropriate to show for it, I’ll say Mississippi. I hate What’s his nuts Hamilton for the song, tho.

        Not that I don’t love Mexicans, too, but who knew there were so many of them in Natchez, Mississippi?

  36. Sh*t I Hate

    1) People who rif about what other people do and fail to acknowledge their faults in situations.

    1a) Extra, extra, prideful people. How you can be super proud and totally @ssed out is a mystery to me. Face the reality your in an play your position.

    2) Huge rims on cars. At some point the big rims don’t look good and actually look tacky. If you need a running start to jump into the drivers seat it is a problem.

    3) My car starting to act up right before the beginning of the semester. Murphy’s Law at its finest.

    4) Conservatives and this healthcare debate. If I here one more mofo yell socialism or communism it will be too soon. The people yelling this ish dont know what socialism or communism is. Most of have never left their farm or small @ss town.

    • @Humble_One,

      “3) My car starting to act up right before the beginning of the semester. Murphy’s Law at its finest.”

      Just as an add-on to that, everything that happens at the end of April when in college.

      All the money is dried up, you still have a month before the summer semester starts, and you can’t do SHEET.

      That is all.

    • @Humble_One,
      “The people yelling this ish dont know what socialism or communism is. ”

      Thank you!!!
      If I see one more sign comparing Obama to Hitler/Stalin I’ma scream.

  37. Here we go:

    People in the way: this is very DC-centric. It’s tourist season and they are everywhere on the subway (metro). Just standing. In. The. Way.

    Or they don’t move on the escalator. Did you not notice all the people on the right hand side NOT MOVING. Then stand over there dipsh!t. I have become that guy who says, “Stand on the right, move on the left” until they do it! I have gotten dirty looks for it too. You did what I wanted so…eff you and your couch.

    People breaking into a dead sprint to go to work. There’s nothin that pressing that I’m gonna run to work. I wish I would.

    People that congregate at the entrance of the metro. If I knock you over on my way in or out, do not expect an “excuse me.” You shouldn’t have been in the way.

    People talkin loud on the cell. You’re not that important get over yourself.

    People that flake. You get two times to flake after that I will tell you that I no longer consider you reliable and will adjust my behavior accordingly. If you own want to do it, you are grown speak up!

    People that do not pay you money that owe after they said they would. I’m not gonna bug you about it, you just won’t get any more until the debt is resolved (read: I get caked off with cash. I don’t do checks or money orders.)

    • @Stank-0, for a long time, ive theorized that DC is the place where people come to practice annoying subway practices. then they go off to other cities to employ them at all costs.

      folks who don’t know metro rules regarding the proper place to stand if you aint’ walking down annoy me to no end.

  38. I WANT to know who it is.

    Anyhow. Today was an especially difficult day to crawl out of bed. It’s Monday, it was raining this morning, and it’s a humid hot mess outside.

    Tell E’m Why You Mad Monday:

    1. This fruit fly better get the eff outta my face or catch a prompt mollywhopping. I will get a Hatori Hanzo sword and CUT this mofo if he keeps trying to fly in my nose.

    2. Panama better stop dangling candy in front of Cheekie and just spill the beans as to what blog he’s talkin’ ’bout. Ok, ok, just whisper it in my ear or something.

    3. Sorta Made My Day: There was a man walking back and forth in the middle of the street with his pants down to his ankles <strike?speaking in tongues yelling obscenities. And when cars came and honked at him, he’d spin around out of the way and almost tripped and fell a couple times yet maintained his balance. Lovely.

    Oh, Monday, you ol’ heffa…

    *raises coffee* Cheers…

    • @Cheekie, 2. Panama better stop dangling candy in front of Cheekie and just spill the beans as to what blog he’s talkin’ ’bout. Ok, ok, just whisper it in my ear or something.

      dangle deez.

      but the champ mentioned it upthread. that damn what about our daughters site.

      • @Panama Jackson,

        Yup, just saw it up there. Thanks.

        And to this:

        “dangle deez.”

        I say a resounding “Non”. I’m feeling French on this here Monday.

  39. Oh…and the Nappy nazi naturals…. GTFOH with that…actin like being natural is some secret society..oh for real?

  40. Another thing that grinds my gears is the speed and ability of my computer today. It’s slow as sheet after a day of eating a block of cheese. It’s also caused double posts.

    I hate when computers at Major Universities on the East Coast still have DOS and floppy drives.

    I’m exaggerating, but not really. My work station is hella slow today.

    Also (and I dunno how many of you have experienced this) but I hate furlough days. That just seems like its totally unfair and completely wrong to make me take an unpiad day off…

    That is all…

    • @Dante_Alexander,

      Are you in Shick-A-Go? Today is a furlough day for non-emergency city employees. WACK!

      • @K to the…,

        Nah. The State of Illinois and I have a sort of detante in which I don’t venture to their soil, and they don’t arrest me.

        It works out perfectly.

        I’m in Maryland, and I won’t know my furlough day until like a week before hand. Usually somebody just comes in my office at 4:15 and says “Why are you here? It’s your furlough day.”

        Those are bad days.

        • @Dante_Alexander, you just gotta love Detroiters. If we sent them all over to the Middle East, the Middle East would all stop fighting each other and combine forces to take out the American Jihad that just got there a week prior LOL.

          • @T. Troy Stewart,

            I apologize for my family… See, my Uncle Leroy REALLY has this thing about hating Dolphins, and well, the ninja in front of us had a “Miami Dolphins” tee on, and well… you saw the result.

            It’s like touching Warren’s earmuffs. He’ll straight SNAP on a fool.

  41. come lay your head on my bosom Panama J!!! (non-chextually of course!!) You need a hug!!!

    Things I hate:

    1. When people talk crap about you and then pretend like they are your bestest friend or really have your back. I dont talk to people I dont like because THEY DONT EXIST TO ME!

    2. Dudes that let women BUY them & are proud of WHO gave THEM what. I know this used to be a female thing..but there are a lot of desperate women out here buying dudes these days.

    3. People who walk down the street dressed to kill with their kids looking like sh*t right next to them!

    4. People that say they “HATE” something that they’ve never tried instead of admitting that they have never tried it.

    5. Anybody that tells me that I cant do something!! I could fry an egg on my a$$ when somebody tells me that something is beyond my reach. How dare you TRY to determine my destiny. You have no idea that you have just motivated me even more!!

    • @Yaa,

      5. Anybody that tells me that I cant do something!! I could fry an egg on my a$$ when somebody tells me that something is beyond my reach. How dare you TRY to determine my destiny. You have no idea that you have just motivated me even more!!

      It always seem like I’m the underdog, but I love proving people wrong!

      “Hate it or love it…the underdog’s on top!”

  42. Just one for now.

    When people just pop up stealthily behind my office urrea unannounced and just stand there looking at my screen and wont say anything until I feel their ungodly presence.

    Who taught you how to do that? More importantly, where is this acceptable? Announce yourself when you enter a room!! For that matter knock on something.
    Yes I’m playing Toejam & Earl on my computer, but last I checked this wasn’t a spectator sport. F*ck outta here.

  43. My turn *cracks knuckels*

    • @BLUNTBLAZER, …”St. Ideeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees.”

      Really though, I had it hit me this weekend that I was treeless for the 1st time in years. It was extremely strange. Like, I could have sworn I had some….at least a bowls worth.

      Alas…empty.

      • @Mr. Mister,

      BWAHAHAHAHA! This is hilarious.

  44. I don’t have much to gripe about on this Monday morning, I was gonna stick to co-signing ya’ll’s comments but this just happened so I thought I’d share.

    Good ol’ conservative financial institiution that I work for has been doing a staggered move to a new location over the last few months. I’m supposedly in the last round of moves (I say supposedly because you can never be sure about job stability around these parts, these days).

    Of course this doesn’t stop mofo’s from askng me on a daily basis, if/when I’m moving to the new locale. Like you’re really that freakin’ concerned about my job. They’re really beating around the bush asking IF I’m gonna have a job at the new location, but they are too chicken ish to actually come out and ask that question.

    Punks.

    And there you have it. :)

  45. I’ll join in with one:

    People who hate on the wealthy when they know good and well that all they want in life is to BE wealthy. First they singing the “camel through an eye of a needle” stuff, then they preaching the gospel of prosperity. Basically you just want to be rich. Ain’t nothing wrong with that, but don’t pretend that you’re all grassroots and shit. YOU WEAR DESIGNER CLOTHES, GIVE IT A REST.

    My co-worker always made sideway comments about my pens (yes, I write with fancy pens) or our coworkers purses, like having nice things equaled wickedness. She received a promotion and now, suddenly, she’s carrying Jimmy Choo bags. Pathetic.

  46. You know what grinds my ge-uhs?

    1. Rudness!!! I don’t care what culture you’re a part of or what your first language is…you can say good morning when I say it! I share an office and bad enough my officemate and her friends are in here talking in Spanish, but when you walk up in MY office, datgammit, you say good morning to me too! And when you come in here looking for her, don’t ask where she is w/o saying good morning to me. I didn’t wake up with you this morning…witcha rude auss!!!

    2. People who take my facebook statuses too seriously! Folk on there know I’m a fool with it…so if I say rappers are educated because they use the term “medulla oblongata” on a regular basis…don’t come on my status giving me statistics about the black community due to how uneducated these rappers are; or how they don’t pronounce the term correctly. GOMS*!!!
    3. Responding to my texts saying “K…” You’re wasting my unlimited text!

    4. Folk who don’t take responsiblity for their kucf-ups i.e. my tired auss BOSS!!! You may get a slight side-eye from me…but I won’t judge (unless you’re my BOSS). It’s ok…”layas kucf up too…”

    5. Having to find out about big moves that a friend of mine makes…via a facebook status. WKSIT** I see where I stand…

    *GOMS = Get off my status
    **WKSIT = What kinda s#!t is that?

  47. I wanna know what web site this is. Im not up to date on the latest female empowerment blogs….I have a singles web site where I blog about encouraging black women to try interracial dating, I hope black men don’t take that as “stop dating black men.” Plus if you’re not getting that many dates with black men in the first place, it’s not really a matter of ‘stopping’ anything LMAO

  48. people who always find something wrong with your character while they are some of the most nasty evil heifers. When you make these these same heifers see that they need to stand corrected they turn around and say “I know I’m ….. but that’s just me!” WHAT???!!!

  49. It all comes down to:

    1.) Tooth aches. I hate popping two aspirin an hour only to get a painful root canal from a sadistic west indian dentist.

    2.) Smoke-induced coughing. I want to hold it back, and I try, but it always comes and my friends laugh and laugh. They make up names like ‘Lily Lungs’ and ‘Pulmonary Pansy.’

    3.) Google Earth. How did they actually manage to map the entire Western world with street view when it was at huge personal expense to themselves?

    4.) Oatmeal. I would rather grits.

  50. 3 things that exasperate me deeply

    *That slimy over charismatic dude that calls everyone woman he comes in contact with “sweetheart”, “sugar,” “baby girl”, “Dahlin”, “eh bay bey”. Calling me or any other woman by these names just to get over in some way shows just how many skills you lack.

    *Bank of America

    *Dudes ask for your number and then repeatedly call you late at night with a “blocked ID” expecting you to answer your phone. HA! You fool, once I know it’s you I’m going to assume it’s you all the time….

  51. I also hate people that get mad when I have no idea what the hell they tambout because of thier accent.

    I did not know one could “Make Eskrooses” and what not. I’m sorry I laughed in your face. I didn’t correct you like a douchebag, I’d just never heard such a thing before speaking with you in person. My bad.

    Also, don’t get mad at me if your slang terms for intelligence, marketablility and honesty are OUR slang terms for sexual organs. The shocked look on my face wasn’t because I disagreed with you, it was because I thought you were propositioning me. My bad.

  52. I hate BLOGS run by insecure motherf*ckers who only consider your opinion if you agree with them.

    Kanye still has a blog? I haven’t been banned from that one…but the week is still young.

  53. Ninjas who KNEW they couldn’t afford that house in that neighborhood and SHOULD HAVE KNOWN that 2520s practically begging you to sign a mortgage (that we all knew that you weren’t going to read) wasn’t going to end well at all. And lets say that you DID know what was up, what made you think that once that ARM mess kicked in you would have the 300-400 dollars extra to continue to live there when you already paying 800 a month for that used Navagator that you bought from the bootleg car dealer on the Chicano side of town?

    you ninjas SICKEN me

  54. I hate that somebody had the audacity to walk up to my car and open my door and steal my gps and ipod this weekend….

    yeah left it parked outside a friends house unlocked accidentally while I was away for the weekend but still the nerve…. I just feel violated that someone was inside my car opening my glove compartment like that ish was okay

    I also hate traffic cameras…. got 3 traffic camera tickets in the past 6 months…

    that is all (for now)

    • @klysha, that’s so messed up. you worked hard for your ish and somebody out there, with their sorry, sorry arse, is reaping the benefits. I hope the ipod only plays Conway Twitty raps and the gps only gives them directions to the police station or Jimmie Walker’s house.

      • @T. Troy Stewart, LMAO! those would be awesome fates for the thief if that happens….

        dang now I’m reminded of all the music I spent time loading on that ipod some of which I didn’t have backed up on my computer and none of which was Conway Twitty….

        and crap I had my address programmed in as home on the GPS… glad I didn’t leave my house keys in the car too

        • @klysha, you didn’t have the playlists and what not backed up on your computer? you still have the music on a harddrive somewhere, right?

          as for the GPS, too bad that you can’t track that mofo.

          • @T. Troy Stewart, I don’t have everything backed up… I got a lot of stuff from my brother….

            and I was thinking the same thing about the GPS…too bad it doesn’t have a tracking feature so I could figure out who stole my ish!

        • @klysha, so your brother has most of the stuff on his computer, that’s cool. I would go out and get an external harddrive, have brother upload copies of all his music on there, combine it with whatever you have at home and you’ll be set.

          some gps can be tracked now but they cost about 400 bucks.

  55. Things I Heartily Dislike

    1-The word hate. I can’t even stand to use it though it’s the the title of the topic… I think this has more to do with people diluting the meaning than anything, so…

    2- the word swag: what is it? how do you put it on? once on, how do you and others recognize that it is indeed what it’s on? where was it 5 years ago, helping J.T. bring Sexyback? Is it machine washable? If you can’t answer any/all of these questions, you probably shouldn’t use it.

    3-Abbreviations, or even the aNegriations: OMG, LOL, BTW, SNR, ASL, LHH, GNR, SMH, LMMFAO, HAM, ugh… just, go. somewhere. not here. and don’t come back until you speak real English. I feel sorry for the youth.

    4- Girls who do pose with the puckered mouth and peace sign. Why does your album with 62 pics have 47 of you looking stupid? You look like you sucked a lemon and stopped to take a picture. Variety is fine, but I’m just sick of seeing it.

    • @Beez,

      Abbreviations, or even the aNegriations: OMG, LOL, BTW, SNR, ASL, LHH, GNR, SMH, LMMFAO, HAM, ugh… just, go. somewhere. not here. and don’t come back until you speak real English. I feel sorry for the youth.

      Ok, what is SNR…ASL (I know it’s not the AOL throwback of “age/sex/location”…NTTAWT [did I just grind ya gears typing that? iKeed])…& LHH

      And my little sister does #4 ALL the time. But wait…she’s 14…not over 21.

      • @K to the…,

        SNR= so not right… I have a friend who uses this, first time, I was like :-?

        ASL- yep, it is… just wanted to throw it in for nostalgia’s sake.

        LHH= Laughing H*lla Hard

        and GWAF= Gettin’ weak as f*ck (aka the other LHH)…

        You didn’t grind my gears. By nature, it takes a whole lot of that to really make me mad. :)

        • @Beez,

          why have i not heard any of this foolishness except ASL?

          what kilt me dead a few weeks ago was this text floating around at home (new orleans) that my stepdaddy sent me. something to the tune of LOL is for 2520s . GNR=gotta ninja rollin’ is the new LOL.

    • @Beez, 4- Girls who do pose with the puckered mouth and peace sign. Why does your album with 62 pics have 47 of you looking stupid? You look like you sucked a lemon and stopped to take a picture. Variety is fine, but I’m just sick of seeing it.

      LOL, CO-SIGN. omg, this is the best description of myspace.

  56. I have been looking to VENT!

    THE MUVVAFUGGIN CITY OF NEW ORLEANS… Who issued me a permit to start construction on a redesigned home.. Just for the city inspector to pop the hell up and stop construction, stating the home was not being built to code.. The problem folks?? He said to add over 50% to an existing structure requires the home to be elevated… So basically i have to compleate the home as a 1 story, and then go back to request an additional permit from the city to add the 2nd floor.. then peel back the brand new construction to complete the job… so what does that equal.. A HUGE PAIN IN MY ARSE, AND ABOUT 40 GRAND!!!! I want to kick somebodys butt!

  57. Stuff I Hate:

    1. If I miss the first part of “Law and Order.” If the song has already come on, I feel totally lost and cannot watch the episode.

    2. I know this is anal, but I hate when people mispronounce words or say stuff wrong. Like, “orientated” is not a word. It’s ‘oriented.’ On the same note, people who use the word “irregardless” should be either drawn and quartered, or forced to watch a marathon of “House of Payne”–not sure which one is worse. People who can’t say ‘nuclear’ the right way and instead say ‘Nookyouler.’ People who don’t know the difference between “you’re” and “your” and they use “your” for everything. (This is the most serious of offenses.) People say “on accident” instead of “by accident”, or the very common mistake “FASFA” instead of the correct “FAFSA.” People say “sorry for your lost” instead of “your loss”, “Wallmark’s” instead of Wal-mart. “Rockwiler” instead of “Rottweiler” Maybe it’s because I’m an English major. These things really annoy me. I realize this is very anal and no one gives a fook about my grammatical gripes. But this rant has been cathartic.

    3. Huge glasses/sunglasses. Just cause certain shii is in style does not mean it looks good. How you gon mock the photos of people back in the day with gargantuan spectacles but then turn around and rock some

    4. Opening a bag of chips and realizing that, if I wanted to purchase air, I could have headed to the nearest gas station instead of grocery store

    6. When someone’s weave ponytail doesn’t match her hair. I’m not trying to be mean, but why is your hair brown and your ponytail black? Or vice versa

    7. The fact that Anna Paquin was cast to play Sookie on “Trueblood.” I don’t hate Anna herself, just the fact that she was selected for the role. Add to that the fact that she played Rogue on “X-Men.” She is not suitable for either role, especially not Rogue.

  58. “I hate BLOGS run by insecure motherf*ckers who only consider your opinion if you agree with them. Yes, the kind of blog that would tell you that your dissent is akin to being a disruptive member of the community and that you should effectively, keep quiet because your opinion is in direct contrast to what they believe to be true.”

    I commented on one of this bloggers many Obama Posts, and she took it very personal, and even sent me an email telling me it was my choice to read her site or not.. Well Duh! I know that!

    This would apply to Sandra Rose!!! Yeah I said it! It doesn’t surprize me that a person with such a negative outlook on life, nothing but a “Devil’s Advocate” perspective would look like this! It’s just the inside manifesting on the outside!

  59. Well i have one more thing that pisses me off beyond belief…So check it i have in-laws and typically i get along with but i had my wife’s siblings come over for the summer and their mother, my mother-in-law said she was going to give us some money b/c one of the kids eats like he has a d@mn tape worm…well actually they all do..So something came up and i never got any money…she said she would get it to us when she got paid again…did that happen???? NO!!!! Got to be kidding me…i got my own family to take care of..and what did they do for the month they were there beside water space and take up precious air from my daughter…ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!!!! Now my electric bill and water bill are high and i know i am not going to get any help from my failure of a mother-in-law…yet again fmylife! D@mn moochers!!! I hate people who mooch and don’t get anything back in return…

      • @T. Troy Stewart, Well she did but her mom is always f’ing broke…I guess she is used to her mom letting her down..not me!!! End i make money but i dont make that much..man im in the military we dont get paid jack $hit…but i’ll just take my loses and continue to talk ish about her being a failure of a mom..just a mom-in-law…

    • @NaizDad,

      I swear your sheet said Nazi Dad and I was gonna say something very vulgar and what not. But I’ve learned to move past my dyslexia and read slowly.

      Regarding your homelife sitch-ee-aye-shun… You can’t get blood from a stone, by the way. As such, you should never expect her to pay. Recall stones sink to the bottom of large bodies of water, though. Do you see where I’m going here?

      • @Dante_Alexander, LMAO…i catch your drift man…would be nice…checking off huge stones and rope off my list…

        Yea i bet a lot of people get confused about my name…lol..well my daughter’s name is Zhania and well all call her Nia..so that’s where the first part comes from…

  60. OK, let me get some new ones in:

    -I see no one commented on District 9, but not only did that movie just have to remind that the idea of a 2520 being from South Africa rubs me the wrong way, but I also had to see an Afrikaner write/direct in such a treatment of Nigerians like they’re complete savages. I’m 125% Black American and feel for my Naija people.

    -I’m sick of Black criminals and ex-offenders being treated like they’re the absolute worst, most evil kind born to do nothing but crime. Don’t be high profile, then you get no chance for redemption in the 2520 public. Kobe has to be happy the charges were dropped.

    -Can radio stations stop with the Tupac song every hour? I’m at peace with how big the public at large is on him, but space it out 200% more.

    -Can I get a “fuqu” for those damn music blogs that have all these RARs for albums and don’t even bother to post the stinkin’ password to crack them open?!?

    -The arrogance of political gang-banging. Nuff. Said.

    -These clubs that charge an arm and a leg for admission and drinks as if you’ll leave with a bag of free swag like an A-list celeb at an awards show.

    -Being a Zune owner with all the aftermarket accessories being iPod specific! Microsoft, step your game up the way you’ve done so far with Xbox.

    Oh yeah, screw grown & sexy and upscale dress codes too..

    • @Stuff Ghetto People Like,

      “Oh yeah, screw grown & sexy and upscale dress codes too..”

      I was denied access to the first event of my 10-year high school Reunion for being “dressed inappropriately”. Not that I cared. I had just come from drinking heavily while sitting in the driveway.

      That is all.

    • Two other quick ones I didn’t get in in time:

      -Cell phone scofflaws. You aren’t the special exception who doesn’t have to use hands-free in the car, you twerp. And I see you texting and driving too. Where is a motorsickle cop when someone needs it stuck to them?

      -Those punk *ss “grown & sexy” and “upscale” dress codes. I shouldn’t have to try and figure it out and come thru in a linen and Cole Haans when every other douche is doing the young bedazzled tee, faded jeans, and AF1s. I could have come comfortable my damn self. Why not just be specific about the unwanted wares? (I see it got in after all, but I may as well have been more specific.)

  61. @ Miss Patterson,

    Lol the same goes for CSI too!! And also, thank you for commenting on my post. I swear I was going to add to my list of things I hate, “When no one comments on my posts. I feel ignored, irrelevant, and thus, morose.” You saved me from having to do that, Miss Patterson. lol

    I would like to add to the list though:
    #10– I hate Self-righteous vegetarians. Bytch, respect my omnivorous appetite and I will respect your desire for rabbit food. Don’t hate me because you don’t have enough protein in your diet and/or you lament the days when the juice of an artery-clogging Big Mac used to run down your face

  62. @ my own comment,

    I’m not saying I hate vegetarians/vegans. I hate the ones who are A-holes about it, and try to make me feel like I’m a murderer on the level of Ted Bundy just because I eat at KFC. Yes, I can see the pictures you’re showing me of slaughtered animals, and no I don’t care.

    • @Intellectual_Sista,

      Do those pictures make you hungry? Cuz I’ll admit, as morbid as it sounds, I’ve actually wanted something after seeing a disgusting picture of a bloody something else.

      This hippie lady showed me a pic at a Publix once as I was picking up some ground chuck. I was like “what is that?” she said “a baby sheep”… I was like “You know what… thanks. I want some curried goat now”. I think she was pissed. I couldn’t tell over her “hemp and body odor” smell.

      • @Dante_Alexander, “You know what… thanks. I want some curried goat now”. I think she was pissed. I couldn’t tell over her “hemp and body odor” smell

        Damn.

  63. @ BBMo..
    “Not so much for cleanliness– it is a sign of respect. In many cultures. I never experienced people leaving their shoes on in the home till I emigrated to the U.S. They take their shoes off in Canada.”
    Yup, totally! When I moved to the States(from Canada) for University, I couldn’t get over all the “walking in the house with shoes on” business. WHAAT?
    In my house that would get you cussed out in some serious patois. My mum would’ve been like, “W’appen? Yuh nuh have no brought-upcy? (Yeah, Jamaicans make up words…lol!) TEK OFF YUH SHOES DEM! Cho!”

    • @CanJamGirl,
      LMAO!!! I definitely know what that’s like…except insert Guyanese for Jamaican, lol.
      ‘Come nuh…tak’off ya shoes *kiss teet* you wan cut lash *kiss teet*’ Put ohn ya slipurhs!

  64. @Dante_Alexander,

    lol no they don’t make me hungry, but they don’t have the desired effect– (that is, to compel me to immediately repent for my steak-lovin’ ways, falling to my knees and praying to the anthropomorphic animal deities above as I chant the childhood rhyme “Old McDonald had a farm” which is actually a hymm to these aforementioned gods)

    and lol @ “hemp and body odor smell” Don’t care for the musk of the sanctimonious, eh?

    And speaking of hemp, I’d like to add #11 to my list of things I hate:

    -When white people love Bob Marley for no good gotdang reason other than their entire culture has divinized him and they therefore conform because he’s “cool”. I attend a predominantly white university and I’d confidently wager that you cannot walk on any dorm floor without seeing at least ONE Bob Marley poster in someone’s room. They nod their blond heads to the beat of “Get Up, Stand Up” but don’t understand the significance of the song. I have no problem with white people, or white people who have a genuine love for Marley and/or reggae, dreadlocks, whatever. But for the most part, the 2520′s at my school are fake fans, and if you administered a Bob Marley trivia quiz, they’d score about as high as Soulja Boy would if he took the Bar Exam.
