MESSAGE!

Have you ever walked around and saw a group of dudes... and all but ONE of the guys was uncommonly homely? Doesn't that piss you off? Or better yet... you want the cute guy to come and talk to you, but the coonest negro in the bunch, takes it upon himself to bring his unwanted ass over there to you, to try and hook you up with somebody who looks just as worse as him, or he's trynna talk to you himself... (I believe almost every black girl can testify to this shit).

What I don't understand is... why is this the case? It's very easy to find a group of all attractive females, but you'll be hard pressed to find a group of all attractive males.

I asked my dad this question... and asked if he was apart of a group that was similar to the aforementioned one. He couldn't really say... He told me that he never really thought about it. So could this possibly one answer? Do guys really look more so at what a guy brings to the friendship rather than his looks?

Or is it an effort to command all the attention? Do men subconsciously seek out unattractive friends so they will be perceived as being more attractive than if they were associated with any other group? I kno I've been fooled before... I thought this one dude was cute, but then when I saw him again in a different context (walkin by himself) and I was like omg... what the fuck was I thinkin before. This dude is not what I remember seeing (In actuality it really was... but since he was surrounded by tragedy I didn't know any better).

Ha... I remember this other time my friend invited one of her co-workers over and he brought some friends with him. My friend texted us that his friends were no where near attractive and that we should lock ourselves in our rooms (we figured that if there was nobody to talk to then they'd leave quicker). So, they come in and one of them was like "where are ur friends?" (they said he was decent looking) and she was like "they sleep...y'all should probably go." They kept tellin her and my mother friend that they should wake us up and come and talk to them.

Moral of the story (I don't wanna bore you wit that long ass memory)... it helps to have a group of attractive friends.... AT LEAST 2 of y'all should be decent. I mean is it that difficult? It's as if they don't consider the possibilities... Like if one of your friends is talkin to someone and they invite you to come on a double date or something and he brings his friend and..... he's the bullshit. It just kinda sucks (I'm not sayin dudes don't have the same experience but... I have a feeling they aren't as frequent).

I know this particular entry makes me seem like I'm super shallow... and to a certain extent, yeah I am. But for real everybody is. You may deny it, but if you think about some of your actions, you'll see the underlying cause may be slightly superficial.

Stinky Cheese

Twitter - texting what you are currently doing in less that 140 characters.

What is this world coming to? Why must we disclose such unimportant information? And most importantly, is your life that unfulling that you sit there are read about someone taking a shit? Its bad enough having that crack which is Facebook (or whatever social network you use). I just don't understand what the fascination is wiht it. I can understand how AIM, facebook, Myspace and texting became so big. But this? Not so much...

It's so funny how simple people can be. Do they not realize what they've done? They have just created the stalkers dream (not that it hasn't already been done). They have made it that much easier for them. I've already witnessed some stalkerish behavior from some of my friends and others through that whole chat thing on Facebook (which gets on my nerves). They can pretty much track down the person's movement or the location in which htey think they may be. It's just craziness in my opinion...

Honestly, I could care less what people are currently doing... the only time I really want to know what's going on is if I need to talk to you or your well being is at stake.

We had this discussion in class today about it and most people agreed that the idea was stupid. The professor brought up a point that I have been considering since text messaging started. She was saying how she said this honor student told her that they hadn't written a paper in two years... TWO YEARS! Honor student...ridiculous.

Although I'm not a huge fan of writing papers, I do know there is some significance in it. When you write, it shows that you have some level of sophistication about a subject. You are able to take a concept and portray it in a way that is conducive to your understanding. If you can write about it... I believe you've got it down packed. With tests... you can't do that ( I hate tests!). Tests don't accurately assess what you know. It shows how great your memory is ( late night cramming for instance).

Anywho... back to the demise or communication as we know it...

I don't even want to image how society is going to operate when my kids are grown... I know that learning how to write will be one of the first things to go, it's already started. Remember we had to learn how to write in cursive? Yeah... those were the good ol' days but they are no more. I don't think they teach cursive anymore. They say that it's irrelevant, because it's not really used in life... (bullshit)

I feel another blog entry brewing... cuz I don't want this one to get too long winded.

Why so Pedestrian?

What exactly is white culture? Can somebody help me?

If you were to sit back and think about it... take all of the racial, ethnic, and other cultural influences out of the equation... what are they really left with? Let's break it down... Honestly, this discussion is not very long because there are two points that just put this to bed (But, for kicks I'm gonna drag it out).

1st point: There would be no country for them to reign their terror on. As we all [should] know, this country was already discovered by the Native Americans.

2nd point: Had it NOT been for the Native Americans being so nice and teaching them how to live here (i.e planting crops and such) they would have died before they even had a chance to do anything (By the way, that thank you, you have them was just grand!).

Think about it...

Moving right along... Ok so lets say they actually did discover the America, had it not been for the slaves that built this country, there would be nothing for them to run (ha... yet another bed layer).

When you look at the food they eat, I cannot think of one that all their own (green bean casserole maybe?). I was going to give them hamburgers, but then one of my friends informed me that hamburgers were a Greek food. I feel like people get Southern food mixed up with white culture... Southern food is another name for black influence (The recipe for fried chicken was thought up by a white person?? Come on now).

I believe the black influence on white music is obvious, as well as the way in which some of them dress. I looked up white culture on google and looked at some of the pictures they had posted... there was nothing that really told a story about their culture. However, I was slightly intrigued by this one picture of this white guy in baggy clothes, a hat and a chain around his neck and underneath the picture it read "...huge in urban white culture. " The word urban is an indication that it has a black influence all up and through it... Baggy clothes and chains are mostly seen in hip hop and rap videos or "gansta culture."

I recently learned that the women's movement really took off around the time the civil rights movement happend. I know that black women were also involved in the women's movement but, would that movement be as powerful if the civil rights movement did not take place at the same time? Would women be in the same place they're in now?

I guess what this all boils down to is I'm sick of other races and ethnicities gettin shitted on like our ancestors weren't the ones who made white people what they are today. What is that?
