Letter is fake as the day is long. Anyone who actually went to an Ivy League school knows to capitalize Ivy League :)
@Karla The Congo is like getting the $1.00. You make it to the bonus round to bid on a trip or a car.
Does the graphic remind anybody else of the wheel on Price Is Right? Who wants to spin?!
@Brenda55 Helmet size! Lol. I call it the mushroom tip but I think I'll have to work "helmet" into my vocabulary too.
How about girth? They left out a very important measurement!
@MarkCustard @Brenda55 Zing! LMAO.
The hospital is not Buger King. You can't customize and have it your way. Otherwise hire your own midwife and give birth at home. Heck yes the lawsuit is justified--otherwise it's a slippery slope for racists to request "no blacks" or "white only" for a variety of professions that people have worked hard to rise in.
I found out about this after reading Kola Boof's twitter feed and enjoyed reading her GOING IN on the people trying to excuse this. She brought up the Kanye West/Taylor Swift flap, which I was also thinking of. All he did was INTERRUPT a grown woman (young at 18 or 19, but still an adult) and people out here on the Internets were ready to lynch him! Swift was big then but after that her stardom shot into the upper stratosphere. I also read about John Legend's girlfriend Chrissy Teigen (white-Asian mix) tweeting from the Oscars that Quvenzhane was cocky. UGH! That little girl performed and was nominated--why was Teigen there, other than laying on her back for a singer? I 'unliked' The Onion on facebook. I saw the apology they posted, which brought out all kinds of nastiness. People acted like they had a personal stake in The Onion's right to insult a child, as if their rights were being taken away. The silver lining in this is that people--bw in particular--didn't roll over. With the likes of Michelle Obama, Quvenzhane, Kerry Washington, etc. getting more and more shine, expect more of these attacks innocuously hidden as "humor" on black women and girls.
I have used MSM as a face cream. Now I'll try it internally. Thanks for the recipe.
Oh my gosh the ending...be still my beating heart.
@Christelyn What?!?! I guess they don't get Oprah over there.
@dani-BBW David Icke's the one who says the world is run by the Illuminati (incl the Queen) and a race of reptilian aliens that looks like regular people. Alex is one tirade away from becoming Icke.
Alright...I'm waiting for a story where someone got thrown in the pool...
I've been fortunate never to have this kind of boss. In fact my female bosses have all been great (big sisterly, easy to get along with, and knew their stuff jobwise) while I did have one male boss that drove me to resign. Really--it was just not worth putting up with, facing someone everyday who refused to give me any direction and found fault with everything I did. Anyone see the hilarious movie Horrible Bosses? I could relate to the guy that worked under the Kevin Spacey character.
@BrokenHeartNSoul13 @Lily I was also suspicious when she (he?) went on about the age difference between Mellody Hobson and George Lucas making black women look bad. Throwing water on good news.
So great of you to share your story. I look forward to reading some happy updates! And BTW I agree with Patti Stanger who says divorced men are an overlooked group. They've already shown that they can commit.
@BrokenHeartNSoul13 @Lily I was also wondering if BrokenHeartNSoul was a black woman. The initials posts going on about how black men were gross and nearly all bad sounded like a black man trying to bait us into agreeing with him to "expose" black women who interracially date as haters of black men
@onmywayup @mzsunshine @Law Wanxi @SmackfuYo @Brenda55 Yeah I thought those were the Koreans as well.
