Whitney's Family Demands Ray J Move ... Or Else

 

Problem? Check.

I was watching GMA this morning and there was a story of a woman who was attacked by the cheetah's at one of those wildlife preserves which claim the animals are tame and you can pet them.

Personally...I think those animals are drugged and I would seriously never pet them.

SIP:  Hell...sometimes I side eye Lucy so you KNOW I'm not petting a damn cheetah.

N.E.WAY.

The story took a turn for me when they shared that the pictures, which show the woman being straight up mauled were taken by her husband.

So...dude was taking pics of her petting the cheetah's and when they started attacking his wife...HE JUST KEPT TAKING PICTURES???????????  REALLY??????????  Like...what if she'd been killed?  Would he have just kept taking pictures of his dead wife?

REALLY????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

Now...I know I have issues so I'm not the person who should be the litmus test here...but  the majority of yall always come across as lovely, sane people. 

That said...if you were the spouse being attacked...would you kinda have a problem if your spouse just kept taking pictures?

N.J. Mother Of 5 Accused Of Putting 6-Year-Old Daughter In Tanning Bed

 

Things I don't understand...

Okay...I just seriously want to know if I'm the only person who ever wonders at the disconnect here.  Like...why wouldn't he just buy pants that fit?  Wouldn't it be more comfortable?  I'm not being malicious here AT.ALL.  This is seriously something I wonder from time-to-time.  I mean...I know when I wear clothes which are too small I'm uncomfortable.  Wouldn't he be more comfortable in pants which fit better?  Like...I feel like his belt buckle is hurting his belly.  Why put yourself through that when you can buy a size 46 instead of a size 32?  Does he really think he still wears a size 32?

Exclusive: Seller of Controversial Anti-Obama Sticker Says It's Not Racist

You going?

Strategery

I was in a meeting recently and a disagreement started.

One person wanted one thing.

Another person wanted something completely different.

I didn't care and really wasn't paying any attention if the truth be told.

Nobody would budge and it got to be a standoff of the most ri-damn-diculous kind.

I started putting all of my stuff into my rolly bag.  Laptop, binder, papers, hotspot, pen, pad.  Folks were looking at me like I was crazy.  

Someone said..."We're not finished."

Me:  We haven't even started and I don't have time for this.

The other someone:  Well...this issue needs to be resolved first.

Me:  You have a good point and you have a good point.  Neither is going to change the outcome...this is basically a "style" issue.  Yall could just flip a coin and either method would be fine.

They looked at each other and someone else took out a coin.

One called heads.

The other called tails.

The coin flip was tails.

I unzipped my rolly bag and took my laptop back out to get down to business.

Sometimes the simplest solutions solve the most major of conflicts.

*sigh*

When's the last time you were around when something was decided via a coin flip?

My response to the old jerk...

Mr. _____:

I wish you could see my face right now because I'm extremely annoyed with
this HIGHLY inappropriate email.  I'm sure you didn't miss my wedding
jewelry so for you to think it was appropriate to speak this way to me is
so disrespectful it's crazy.  This is why I don't usually speak to men in
DC other than a courtesy nod.  Why?  Because I'm from the country, in
Louisiana, and was raised by traditional parents to be courteous and
respectful of my elders.  So my being friendly is always taken to be an
invitation to be inappropriate by men who, for whatever reason, are just
not used to nice Southern bred women or...NOT raised right. 

I complimented you because you were, as I stated, a dapper older gentleman
and you reminded me of my elders.  Frankly, I assumed you were gay because
of your pristine attention to detail which many of my gay friends are well
known for and take exceptional pride in.  I was nice to you and invited
you to eat with my girlfriend (who is the significant other of a
colleague) and I so that I could pick your brain further about the
theater since you purported to be in "the know."  I'm always working Mr. _____.  Always. 

I hope this isn't how you usually lead a follow-up conversation with
women.  I was excited to see your email and now I'm very disappointed. 
There is no need for a follow-up email response.  I'm far too annoyed to
accept any form of apology from you.

I wish you well in  your endeavors.

Sincerely,

Monica Mingo

This was AFTER I'd picked my face up from the floor and had a "B'What?????" moment.  Seriously.

Look...I don't care who are you, how old you are, what your relationship status is, what you look like...this was UNACCEPTABLE.  You don't let men speak this way to you unless you are some raunchy azz who is just trying to be laid up.  See...when you start thinking this kinda shit is okay that's when it's obvious you'd take all kinds of other shit.  Yeah...no.  HELL.NO.

The part about this which was SO annoying was that I'd just told The Robinator about this guy not even 15 minutes before I got his email.  I spoke of him EXACTLY as I saw him.  A dapper older gentleman who was head-to-toe on it as it related to his outfit.  I told him that dude's attention to detail was awesome and that seriously...he was one of the best dressed older guys I've ever seen.  We even joked that this would be a friend of ours in 10 years.  We were laughing and enjoying life when I saw the email which had a subject line of "Windowpane Socks."  I told Robby..."HEY...Windowpane socks sent me an email!" and I proceeded to read the email out loud and when I realized what the fug was going down I stopped in shock while Robby doubled over with laughter cuz his azz is evil!

Robby:  BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!  YOU RAN INTO THE OLD DUDE FROM THE CLUB AT THE THEATER!  BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!  THIS WOULD ONLY HAPPEN TO YOU!!!!!!!!!!! 

And he thought the shit was funny.  Me?  Not so much.  Not so much AT.ALL!

This pissed me off cuz it's obvious old geezer has had some success in speaking to women he'd just met in the same manner and for that I blame ANY WOMAN WHO DOESN'T TAG THAT AZZ WHEN A MAN STEPS OUT OF LINE LIKE THIS!  Do NOT let them think this shit is okay cuz it ain't.

Old wormy azz.

SIP:  Can yall believe she didn't let me write the email?  I mean...she shoulda sprinkled this one with an MF or two right????????????

Me:  Shup UP SIP...I'm growing...

SIP:  Yeah well...grow on your own damn time.  Responding to his old azz shoulda been on my time.

A Cancer Survivor on Susan G. Komen

Yall know I've never been one to hold my status as a cancer survivor on my sleeve.  I was one of the lucky ones.  Because I had healthcare...I had the benefit of early detection so I survived and, 18 years later...I'm still here alive and proud to be so.  However, I didn't have to do much ya know...why?  BECAUSE I HAD HEALTHCARE.

Many people don't.

Planned Parenthood provides healthcare for millions of people who aren't as blessed as I am and there is no way in hell I'd ever do anything which would diminish their place in society.  So many people can't afford adequate healthcare and Planned Parenthood makes sure as many as possible have access to treatments for early detection which saves lives.  Their offices are posted up in areas which NEED it. 

Cutting funding for such an organization based on ri-damn-diculousness has caused me to have a seriously negative reaction to Susan G. Komen and yeah...ya girl is DONE.

See...I know I'm blessed and I know I've always been.  I've never had a period of time in my life where I didn't have the best healthcare possible.  I also know I'm not the norm because LOTS of Americans can't say the same.

I've never been to a health clinic but I'm glad to know they exist.  I'm the type of American who wants Americans to have what they need to survive.  EVEN IF THEY CAN'T PAY FOR IT.  We're not a third world country.  This is something we CAN do.

Again...I don't wear my status as a cancer survivor on my sleeve but I do speak up when I see some seriously crappy crap being rolled out.

Be a better person.

If you want to help...donate to Planned Parenthood or the American Cancer Society.  Help save a life that is just as valuable as my life was.  Help somebody who doesn't have it as good as we do.

We're better than this.

Fug Susan G. Komen and their right wing bullshit rhetoric.  I'm ashamed I was once a supporter.  Sheesh.

Regarding "Red Tails"

I wish I still had the luxury of being uber critical of a film with a main Black cast. Now? Hell...I understand the struggle of the filmmaker and as long as YALL don't understand it...there won't ever be a plethora of films for you to peruse.

Yall talk that nonsense about "Red Tails" because there aren't any Black women in it. Shit...be happy there are Black people in it PERIOD. I can watch movies from sun up to bedtime and not see a single.solitary Black person all day. NOT.A.ONE!

Truth be told...folks get on my GOT.DAMNED nerves being all "Black Power" when they ain't put in on this. If you want different, (ie BETTER in your brilliant head) options...don't sit your azz in a box and throw salt on someone TRYING to have a showing in the game. Learn to discern the BIGGER.PICTURE and recognize that if Black movies with a theatrical release don't make money...there won't EVER be Black movies, as a norm, in movie theaters. It's all about the money people. Don't be dumb. Use your money to carve out some space for those of us TRYING to offer you options cuz if you don't then I have to sit in meetings with folks listening to bullshit like..."Black dramas don't sell. You got any comedies? Any singing and dancing? Can you get a rapper to star in it?"

Hell...I wish I did have the luxury to be able to talk ish about being better and doing better and still have a shot in this game.

Next time YOU make a damn movie with Black people in it from beginning to end...come talk to me cuz then and ONLY then will you understand. I applaud the Jedi Master for trying cuz many wouldn't even look twice at a Black woman OR a Black man for a lead role let alone a full lead cast. I've seen every movie he's made and I'm not about to stop now.

In short...

Wait...nothing...cuz if I say anything else...Imma start cussing and I'm still on the Goodness and Light Tour of 2012.

Thank you in advance. You are welcome to and I encourage you to share this message FAR AND WIDE cuz it seems some folks need to read it.

Do you think his adopted son looks like him?????

NSFW! Yall know I NEVER do this...

...but this picture that was posted on Facebook has me perplexed.  It's of a young man who seems to be gay wearing a pair of underwear and a doo rag only so don't open it on your work computer. 

The thing that is perplexing is that he has hips, REAL hips like a woman.  Is it photoshopped or do men really grow this way?

Scenario from the news...

A college student works at a restaurant.

The owner of the restaurant is an older guy.

The owner offers the college student an allowance and paid tuition if the college student allows him to spank them and get um...erra...other "favors" from time-to-time.

If they agreed to this...do YOU think it's still se.x.u.al battery?

If they agree to do this...are the women pro.sti.tutes?

Dear Home Depot:

Last night my husband and I noted the state of our flag flying at your store #2560 and we were APPALLED!

I asked to speak to a manager and took him outside to show him.  I shared with him that it was unacceptable.  I asked him did he need me to tell them the proper way to lay the flag to rest and he shared they had procedures by which to do it properly.

I left him by letting him know that this should NEVER, EVER, EVER happen and that I'd be back today to check.

I went back this morning to see if it was taken care of and it wasn't. 

I was told the store didn't have a ladder tall enough to reach it.

At Home Depot.

*BLINK*

I posted this on Facebook and my friends, who love our country as much as I do, are all appalled and I'm sure you've heard from some of them by now and, hopefully, a bunch more people will call you once this is posted.

This is so unacceptable.

Fix it.

I knew it would bring me joy the second I saw the subject line. You might not get it because you are probably not throwed the hell off like we are...but if you do...you're welcome too. LOL!

My response back?

Dear Cousin:

Thank you so very much.  You don't have to give me a gift for anything pertinent for the next 6 years because of this.  Your existence in my life is being compared, currently, to the uncomparable.

I, sniff, sniff, love you.

Sincerely,

Seriously Penn State?????????

So lemme paint a picture for you.

I walk up somewhere and see a grown man performing anal sans ropas on a 10-year old baby.

I'd rush that fucker and beat his azz, grab the baby and run while calling the po-po.

I'd hold that baby until the po-po got there and wait until his mother got there.

His mother who would be IN.CON.SOLABLE because she thought she was doing the right thing by having this perverted motherfucker mentor her baby because they were economically disadvantaged and she was trying to do right by her baby by making sure he had some male influences in his life that were positive role models.

That shit would end RAT.THERE!

I'm sitting here watching these idiot azz kids outside Paterno's house in support of him thinking to myself...ARE THEY HIGH??????????????????????????????????

And everyone who turned a blind eye INCLUDING Paterno?

Scenario from my inbox: UPDATED!

A man lives next door to a woman's mother.

The woman doesn't know this when they meet.

They start dating.

She finds out, after about a year, that he's married.

Ish gets hectic real quick like.

Turns out his wife doesn't live with him but she's pregnant with their child.

Chick gets a new man.

Old dude is still calling, texting, emailing, trying to see her.

Stalking her.

New dude tells her she'd better handle this ish or he will.

Chick has to put a restraining order on old dude before he would leave her the hell alone.

After a while...they start texting and communicating again.

She needs to borrow like $20 and he brings it to her.

She pays him back.

No biggie.

Just texts and convos.

Old dude is in the school system and it's time for his background check update.

He asks her to go have the restraining order removed.

She refuses.

He's pissed.

He drops the bomb that he lives next door to her mother and that the next time she and her man are over...he's going to come over and tell dude that she borrows money from him and they still are in constant communication.

And the fact that he lives next door to her mother is going to probably become an issue too.

What advice would you give her regarding this situation?

UPDATED!  I told this wrong.  She didn't know he lived next door to her mother when they met...she's known for a while.  The new boyfriend DOESN'T know however.
