Interesting how this post is viewed differently by people. I can't say it's just a man vs woman thing. But interesting still. I don't think Rippa sales shoes but the thought of it does make me laugh.Citizen Ojohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07001825524756033450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7914710637340292931.post-14311302588517087262010-02-03T01:38:51.250-05:002010-02-03T01:38:51.250-05:00I'm w/Val-I was wondering how your guest write...I'm w/Val-I was wondering how your guest writer decided on his very narrow, very sarcastic misogynistic rant on Black women. You can't tell me said writer hasn't watched his share of Jerry Springer and Maury shows where Black men too act a fool.<br /><br />And to end the post by using an "Aw shucks, I'm just being sarcastic" wink is too pompous for words.<br /><br />Tell him I suggest he not quit his day job as shoe salesman at Sears. But shucks, I'm just being sarcastic.(Stomps off).Debo Bluehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17870178701012520680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7914710637340292931.post-39303131060012907772010-02-02T15:10:32.937-05:002010-02-02T15:10:32.937-05:00P.H.D. - Where have you been??

So thanks for clarification.<br /><br />Reggie - Glad you enjoyed, tip Rippa next time you see him.<br /><br />labellanoire - Glad you enjoyed. I thought Rippa would kick BHM off right.<br /><br />Val - You are correct. I'm just as ashamed of them as well.Citizen Ojohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07001825524756033450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7914710637340292931.post-63902269226267042152010-02-02T13:03:39.739-05:002010-02-02T13:03:39.739-05:00I agree with you but I also think there are some p...I agree with you but I also think there are some pretty glaring examples of Black men "actin' a fool" on the internets as well.Valhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15297338462983613290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7914710637340292931.post-61143657230707416372010-02-02T08:35:51.483-05:002010-02-02T08:35:51.483-05:00Ohmydamn, the sarcasm in this post!

I took some time off to see if it could be done but like an addict, jonesing for his next ride on the brown carpet...I came back for more.<br /><br />First off, Happy Negro My-story Month. And don't be offended, "Negro" is actually a classification on this years Census. LOL Too bad "Skeezer", "Hot Ghetto Mess", "Barbie", "Goblin" and "Goon" are not...I'm quite sure a few people would qualify for those spots as well.<br /><br />Anyhow, the Internet has ruined much more than your precious history. It has ruined my credit [internet scams], my relationship [Facebook], and my driving record [texting/Twitter]. <br /><br />One thing Negro's need to understand is that shame once existed. The people that held the banner for truth, justice and civil rights also didn't want to be seen compromising the cause. They were so concious of shaming the cause or themselves that they understood the power of imagery. <br /><br />Classic example: MLK smoked cigarettes. Yet, you would be hard pressed to find a pic of him taking a drag and cutting Andy Young [the real A.Y., not this snitch A.Y. that is killing John Edwards in the press] a short. He understood what that image would do to young Negro children. <br /><br />The kids these days have no clue what it means to be an image model. A person of character. So they put out whatever they want and I hate it. <br /><br />So you can blame the internet, but I blame the parents. I also blame the camera phone. Now every idiot can be Gordon Parks with the push of a button.<br /><br />I hate, I hate some more. And I hate you so much, I came back for more. You should be smiling.P.rofessional H.ater D.egreenoreply@blogger.com
