So this whole Rihanna doobie thing has gone wayyyyyyy too far in my humble opinion. Its REALLY NOT that serious. This article definitely went above and beyond the call of duty when writing about hair.
Everyone is making a big deal about the fact that she left the house with a "pre style" hair style. No one knows what prompted her to do so.... supposed she was running late for the award show and didn't have time? or maybe the hairstyle that was planned didn't come out right and she has no time to change it so she just went with a wrap? From what we know about Rihanna she probably just didn't care. Neither should we, this girl is damned if she does, damned if she doesn't. Which is why she doesn't care and just does what she wants. She is living the life that many people want to live and are too afraid to live which is why she gets judged about EVERYTHING she does. She is living for HERSELF and no one else. We are so afraid to stand out and do things that goes against the grain. But when someone does exactly what we are afraid of we make such a stink about it, STOP HATING!!! I HIGHLY doubt Rihanna thought in her head she wanted to and will make a political statement with a doobie and some fancy bobby pins from sally's beauty supply store.
There is this "societal norm/rules" that everyone think they must follow or else they will be considered... ratchet... ghetto... someone with no class, etc. who came up with these norms? If I want to wear a doobie out the street... that's my business. No one needs to explain to white people what a doobie is other than the fact that its a tool that we use to keep our hair style as fresh as possible for as long as possible. The end.
Really people? I get that its something that we do at night, and undo in the morning before leaving our house. Most of us are guilty of leaving the house with a doobie to make a quick errand, or we just came from the salon at one point or another. Did we consider ourselves ratchet, ghetto then? *think about it* So... she went on tv with one? And? There are people that are interviewed by news crews with doobies on all the time, when you see them is the 1st thing that you think, "Why must she have a doobie on? She is soooo ratchet and a ghetto?" I doubt it.
The writer of the article I've linked in this post did THE MOST, SIS.... The words you used were definitely unnecessary, the fact that you decided to use words like, Diasporic, and sui generis, to make an article about a hair wrap seem educational, and politically driven was really dumb. Then you used words like ratchetry which is a slang term... sis who you foolin? Who was your target audience, cause I'm sure the BS you wrote, you didn't believe yourself. All you had to say was I didn't like that she wore a head wrap, I think that is something reserved for the privacy of your home. You did the most. Sit.

LHHNY S4 E5
Okay.... tonight on LHHNY we see the foolishness continue...
Tara/Amina/Peter: All I can say is this is some real BS.... I have nothing more to say on the situation except Tara you can't be mad.... Sis... you've been with this man for 13 years... 2 small kids... and no ring, nothing. You can't be mad. Now lets be real, Tara isn't mad that Peter cheated.... she's been through it b4. Whats eating her ass now is the fact that Peter isn't in love with her anymore. He loved Amina enough to marry her knowing her for only a year. When she been putting up with his crap for 13 years. I'm not saying marriage is a necessary thing, some people have been 2gether for YEARS and are happy and they aren't married. Its clear that Tara wanted Peter's last name. The difference btwn Amina and Tara is Amina is about her shit.... She put her foot down from day one and told Peter if you love me.... prove it or else I'm out... Tara never did that. "If you don't ask... sis you won't receive." Click here for my thoughts on "side chicks" Peter you not shit for what you did. You should've ended things with Tara wayyyy earlier than this.... especially when you decided to marry Amina. SMDH.
Saigon & Erica Jean: ????????? *crickets* ??????????
Yandy: Your focus should always be your family and your paper. You're a BUSINESS woman... not a life coach. You manage careers not people's personal life. But ole girl... I'm gonna need you to do something about these wigs that you have on.... cause girl I can see where your leave out ends and the wig begins.
Erica/Cyn/Bald girl: I really wanna know where Erica found Cyn? The last stop of the 6 train? I really don't care for their existence on the show. They are dry. Bald girl said your birkin is questionable!!!!! HIGHLIGHT of the show!!!
Overall: This episode was dry.... I'm already tired of the love triangle. I need Yandy to try lace closures or just do a classic leave out cause this 98% wig thing on her head isn't the business.
Until Next Week

"Side" Chicks
With shows like Love & Hip Hop: NY, ATL and Scandal the she who must not be named "side chicks" are coming out from under the bed. Out the closet. And hoping out of trunks. Now we see them being flown on the presidential plane that we tax payers pay for, they are getting mansions in the middle of nowhere Vermont, getting married to dude, and "wifeys" of 13 years with 2 small kids are slapping the shit outta them.
I had a great conversation with my husband after watching the latest episode of Scandal, which by the way has been THE BEST episode of any series I've ever watched thus far! If you missed it, watch it here. We both came to the conclusion that in this day and age there is no such thing as a side chick. Side chick traditionally means the mistress, the other woman, the woman on the side, usually the main chick doesn't know anything about her, or even that her man is cheating, the one that gets the scraps from the main course. In the back of ALL our minds we wonder if our man is cheating once in a while. If you deny this..... bish chances are ya man is cheating on ya ass as I write this :)
As we can see side chicks no longer exist, the "main chick" knows who the other woman is, they've met them, talked with them, argued with them, etc. How can we consider them the side chick when the man is IN LOVE with them, and not with the "main chick"? When they are getting all the time, affection, sex, love that the "main chick" is supposed to get? Just because you live 2gether, and you're seen in public during the day doesn't mean you are the main chick. Having kids together doesn't mean you're the main chick, being married doesn't mean you are the main chick. In that instance you're only the main chick as far as the government is concerned, where is it really counts.... sis.... you're the side chick with the 7 babies.
Everyone is calling these "side chicks" homewreckers, whores, bitches, everything but the child of God, but that is where people need to have a damn seat. A woman can only go off what a man tells them when they meet. If you question everything he says... that's NOT a relationship. This is where Joseline and Amina come into play. Stevie and Peter told these women what they wanted and needed to tell them. They probably said hey, I like you, I'm single, I have a baby mama(s) and children. I'm not with my baby mama(s) anymore, we're just friends because we care about each other, and have children together. At that point, what is that woman supposed to do other than believe him? We don't know what these men are telling EITHER women. I'm sure when things started to not add up, and more excuses are being made by the man, that's when some investigating starts, and things start to unravel. At that point she, him, or both are in love... what do you do then? Let the man you love go because what? Amina nor Joseline have no obligation nor loyalty to Tara or Mimi. Peter and Stevie have loyalty to their main chicks. No one can break up a "home" if there is a strong foundation there. You can side eye all you want.... you know its true.
Some women knowingly have a relationship with men that are in a relationship or married *insert* Olivia Pope... you CANT help who you love, and I need people to start being realistic. I'm not making excuses for women that do this but there is always an explanation whether we think its logical, plausible, or wrong. Fitz was NEVER IN LOVE with Mellie, he loves her yes because she is the mother of his kids, she has been a team player from the start but they have a POLITICAL RELATIONSHIP, their fathers set them up. Over time they developed feelings for each other, but Mellie fell in love, Fitz never did. He fell in love with Olivia. Olivia was there as the campaign manager, nothing else, of course she was attracted to Fitz but didn't act on it because he was married. She was there to manage his political career not his penis. One thing led to another, a kiss was shared, and the rest was history. AGAIN I'm NOT making excuses for this behavior, but you can't help who you fall in love with.
I'm not idolizing, praising, nor am I the president of "Side Chicks Unite" but can you really still consider these women side chicks when the man is IN LOVE with them, and what to be with them? Yes these shows are dramatized, and there is editing, but at the core of the show these "story lines" are REAL and its happening as we speak to people without a production team, and cameras following them around
We women play a roll in the man stepping out on us, it always takes two. I say we because I'm a woman too. You can sit there, roll ya eyes, suck ya teeth, but we play apart as well. We stop doing the little things that meant something special to our man. We start getting comfortable, and complacent, we stop getting our hair done, doing our makeup, keeping up with ourselves. How he met us, is how he expects us to stay. If he met you at 145 lbs, shapely, sexy, hair, nails, makeup done all the time... 1 year later he doesn't expect you to be 200 lbs looking a hot ass mess. Then we start with the... "My man should love me no matter what I look like" *skurrrrrrrt* bish miss me with that nonsense. You should always wanna look good for YOURSELF 1st, and then to please your man.
Looks aside, we don't wanna go out anymore, we stop wanting to do fun, exciting things, we stop rubbing our man's back, we stop kissing them when they come home from a long day at work. We stop cooking, cleaning, giving up the coochie, etc. Yeah, yeah, yeah, this isn't the 1950's, we now have careers and college degrees, I get it. But if your man is the MAIN provider even though you work your own money and he is providing you with every and anything you want by working his ass off... the least you can do is clean the bathroom and cook a hot meal. The things you won't do or stop doing that means something to him, trust and believe another woman will do it for you, with no hesitation. When things like that happen, I cant even be mad at the guy because as a woman you should be taking care of your man, you can't be mad he found things that you USED to do in another woman. That's YOUR fault. Side eye me if you want, I'm speaking the truth.
*I always say your real work doesn't start until you've got him, its easy to get any ole man, but you really have to work to GET AND KEEP a REAL GOOD MAN, anything worth having is worth working for*

Ratchet&Rachet Ass Love: ATL episode 1&2
So the new season has begun, and already the foolish has come to fruition.
Molly the maid, Steebie J, Jose Hernandez: I'm so sick of this crap. I really don't understand Mimi and why she even puts up with this shit. There is no need for that little girl to be over there while Mimi isn't around. I'm not saying she can't spend time with her father, but Jose needs to have a \_. Mimi you know damn well you didn't need to move in, Steebie's sister doesn't need to babysit Ava, youclean enough houses make enough money to hire a damn babysitter. Ya ass just wants to be up in the mix, and while I don't agree with Jose disrespecting you like that, ya ass shouldn't have been there to get disrespected in the 1st damn place.
Buckeey Shay and Momma Crazy: I love scrappy and Erica 2gether. End of story. They love each other, and I think they are a great couple, its just that scrappy has to get his shit 2gether. Its evident that Erica is loyal, and she will hold her man down. Scrappy is no angel, BUT I feel the cameras make him wanna do foolishness, diamond isn't an issue anymore. And to be honest, Buckeey is a non MF factor!!! :)
Erica's Momma name is Mignon. Nothing else to say, The end.
box bowl. And that whole incident at Erica's Engagement party.... chile booooooooo, that was something more than just friends. I see you bish!!
Molly the maid, Steebie J, Jose Hernandez: I'm so sick of this crap. I really don't understand Mimi and why she even puts up with this shit. There is no need for that little girl to be over there while Mimi isn't around. I'm not saying she can't spend time with her father, but Jose needs to have a \_. Mimi you know damn well you didn't need to move in, Steebie's sister doesn't need to babysit Ava, you
- Jose, all I can say is that you are one disrespectful ass man. If you riding the bus you need to know that there are boundaries that you can't cross. Idc who you are, where you are from, you never disrespect a man's child, nor his baby mama. You need to learn how to co-exist, you need to know your place. NEVER talk about a man's child. At the end of a very long day.... mimi is always gonna be in the picture because they have a child 2gether. Ya'll don't need to be friends. shit ya'll don't have to be cordial. But be respectful. The end. Oh yeah, ... you're a prostitute, and Steebie is the Pimp of the Puerto Rican Prince. Can you tell me what a FUHRRR is?
- Mimi- lmaooo..... You're impression of Jose was PRICELESSSSSSSSSSSS!!!! lmaoooo *flatlined* I love you Mimi, but you need to move on!!! Move on for your daughter, if not for yourself, because I'm tired of seeing you being made a fool of. You're a beautiful woman, but you look so damn ugly on TV while putting up with the nonsense. Embrace being "Molly the Made" make ya money.
Erica's Momma name is Mignon. Nothing else to say, The end.
- Speaking of you Buckeey, you need to go away, because you look so damn sad. I'm so confused as to why you still on the show, why you still care? all this could've been worked out behind the scenes, because I'm confused as to what your role is. Erica could care less about you, so what storyline do you have?
- Momma Dee, Sweet Baby Jesus you need help, as slow as your son is, even he is confused by the things you say. I really hope everything that comes outta your mouth is scripted because this shit ain't real!!! All this "Prince of the South, Kingdom, Throne, Queen, etc" NEEDS TO STOP EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY *writes prescription for anti-psychotic meds*

Love&HipHop S3 E2
Okay here goes...
Jen&Con- I don't have sympathy for women like you Jen, the things that came out of your mouth were ignorant, and LAME! "I can't work and take care of a child" I'm sorry but where you living Jen? Cloud 10? The fact that you said you come from a life where wives don't work and just use their husband's credit cards is just more absurd. Yes it does happen, yes that is the way of life for some. BUT THAT'S NOT THE WAY OF LIFE FOR YOU, YOUR SON, OR CONSEQUENCE! Get your head out your ass! The mere fact that you solely depend on this man makes me laugh at you because you NOW wanna start shedding tears talking about you stressed and you don't wanna look dumb in front your family, and every1 knows cons is a rapper and they expect him to come into a room and *inserts: hand claps* make things happen. Girl all the way NO! Don't start crying now, and holding out your hand, you knew how he was from the beginning, you knew he wasn't handing ya ass no credit card to spend his money Bentley or no Bentley! YOU LIVE IN NYC, YOU ARE WELL KNOWN! YA ASS COULD'VE GOTTEN A DAMN JOB! You got exactly what your ass deserved because you should've known better. All women let this be a lesson to you. No matter how much money your man has, make sure you have your own, don't depend on a man, I don't care if he tells you to quit and stay at home, you need to be bringing in some sort of income for yourself, and/or your child, make some damn t-shirts, holiday cards, hell start an escort service, DO SOMETHING if you gonna stay at home. As for you Consequence, you knew she had no money to put up, you should have put the party on a smaller scale, with a smaller budget, so you don't have to complain and she doesn't start crying.
Erica&Rich- Why are you guys together? I'm sorry but I don't see it for you guys individually much less as a couple. I have nothing to say except Erica is disrespectful, she acts like a child, she is RATCHETTTT to the fullest. Since she wants to do things on her own.... Rich you need to let her. Cause you wasting your time, she is never going to have a platinum hit record, and neither will you. That whole scene with Lore'l was a waste, just a waste of liquid courage!! Rich when you talk to Erica, you sound like a damn pimp with this soft ass voice. I secretly think you and Joe are the same damn person, just wearing masks and body suits cause that shit is unreal!
Joe, Raqi, Kaylin- WHERE IN THE HELL DID YOU FIND KAYLIN JOE? ON MYSPACEFORKIDS.COM? Clearly Kaylin, you don't have medical insurance cause your mouth looks like THE JAWS OF LIFE!!!!*Deep Blue Sea flashbacks* I could tell right off the block that you are way too damn immature and young for Joe. He used that manipulative ass voice and caught your ass! he is a damn warlock!! got yo ass under a spell!! Every scene with you in it Joe seems sooooo damn scripted. Mona you need better writers these amateurs are working my nerves I don't doubt for a second that you are/were on drugs, but c'mon can we do a better job of acting out your life on this reality show? Raqi, I'm mad you even decided to sit down and talk with this little ass girl. OH WAITTT I GET IT NOW, THIS WAS YOUR WEEKLY "BIG SISTER, LITTLE SISTER" MEET UP How nice of you to mentor the troubled youth. That sip&sat with a dash of tears just further proved how dumb both of you were for having sex with Joe, and that Joe really is a new aged warlock! That dick I mean Black magic is real!
Overall: This episode gave me the drama that I was looking for! and the ratchetness that I needed to soothe my spirits till next week.

The Sisterhood S1 E2
So here we go... I'm going to make this short and sweet. Cause the episode focused mainly on Tara and Brian, with a little bit of Domonique and the introduction of DeLana
Tara&Brian- They are who they are, they believe what they believe, they will continue to be who they are, go about things the way they see fit regardless. So either you accept them for who they are or just keep it moving. I'm not saying that they are right, but I do thing their approach is a bit off and it seems like they haven't socialized with many people outside of their congregation(s) in 16 years. I say: "Its not what you say, but how you say it."
Domonique- Girl you need to hush, your mouth is ALWAYS on 100, you talk about everything, and everyone, STOP judging people, because with your seedy ass past you have NO ROOM!!! and none of the women around the table seemed to be judging you, only sympathizing with you when you told them about your past life. And for you to go to another woman's home, to bash someone that wasn't there to defend themselves was DISRESPECTFUL! It made you look worse than the picture you were trying to paint of Tara. Side note: "Misery loves company" You just wanted poor DeLana to jump on ya bandwagon with Ivy all the way down to your swap meat where you will give them a goodies bag with all thetrash things your store has to offer.
Ivy- You are just messy, point blank. At the end of the day how Tara sees things isn't going to be the way you see things, you should've been the bigger woman and agree to disagree and say that you think BOTH of you owe EACH OTHER and apology. Isn't that the Christian thing to do? Forgive? and move on? In our daily lives we say and do things that we don't think is hurtful, or make someone feel some type of way, but we actually do, you and Domonique ATTACKED Tara, so her walls went up, and RIGHTFULLY SO, you can dish but you can't take when its being shoved down your throat? SIT! SISTER IVY SIT with that OLD ASS NAME! Ivy though?
DeLana- I LOVE the fact that you aren't really into the gossiping thing, and you realized that Tara wasn't there to defend herself as the others bashed her, and you put a stop to it!!! ROUND OF APPLAUSE!!! but ma'am the fact that your home is called the "Rutherford Plantation" is a bit much..... Girl bye! I know for damn sure I wouldn't have walked into your house after reading that plaque, you NOT about to put my ass to work for free. you betta gone wid all dat honey. You are a TRUE southern white woman though with all those platters of snacks and shit that no one was going to eat.... oh I see its really for your "hired help" that comes out of woodwork when you done to help clean up. LMAOOO! but the strawberry lemonade served in mason jars was cute!!!
Overall: I think everyone needs to get over Tara and Brian, either you are going to accept them for who they are and move on, or you just don't invite them over and/or hang out with them. Either one is fine, not everyone is going to get along, but don't invite them over and get mad when they are themselves.

Tara&Brian- They are who they are, they believe what they believe, they will continue to be who they are, go about things the way they see fit regardless. So either you accept them for who they are or just keep it moving. I'm not saying that they are right, but I do thing their approach is a bit off and it seems like they haven't socialized with many people outside of their congregation(s) in 16 years. I say: "Its not what you say, but how you say it."
Domonique- Girl you need to hush, your mouth is ALWAYS on 100, you talk about everything, and everyone, STOP judging people, because with your seedy ass past you have NO ROOM!!! and none of the women around the table seemed to be judging you, only sympathizing with you when you told them about your past life. And for you to go to another woman's home, to bash someone that wasn't there to defend themselves was DISRESPECTFUL! It made you look worse than the picture you were trying to paint of Tara. Side note: "Misery loves company" You just wanted poor DeLana to jump on ya bandwagon with Ivy all the way down to your swap meat where you will give them a goodies bag with all the
Ivy- You are just messy, point blank. At the end of the day how Tara sees things isn't going to be the way you see things, you should've been the bigger woman and agree to disagree and say that you think BOTH of you owe EACH OTHER and apology. Isn't that the Christian thing to do? Forgive? and move on? In our daily lives we say and do things that we don't think is hurtful, or make someone feel some type of way, but we actually do, you and Domonique ATTACKED Tara, so her walls went up, and RIGHTFULLY SO, you can dish but you can't take when its being shoved down your throat?

Things I'm NOT here for in 2013
This was inspired by a young man boy in his 20's who STILL had cornrows!! and by a fellow blogger Ms. C. Elise over at this fabulous blog that had me dying with a similar post!
1. I'm not here for these yella boys, (ie: chris brown) I've never appreciated your existence, and probably never will. Just cause you light skinned doesn't mean every woman wants you, doesn't mean you the best thing since sliced bread, and it DEFINITELY doesn't mean you should feel entitled to every woman. I'm not here for you!
2. I'm not here for men boys who are still rocking cornrows beyond the age of 12. That shit ain't cute! please remove those braids promptly cause I don't know what professional job you have with them damn braids in.... being a customer service rep doesn't fit the bill, and it isn't paying ALL the bills on time, in full, with some money left over for savings. *shout out to all the customer service reps though*
3. I'm not here for UGGs in the summer time. The end. and not for the leaning UGGs either. Officially the End.
4. I'm not here for mothers who have their 10 year olds in strollers STILL. I CAN'T KEEP UP WITH THE FOOLISHNESS! If your child can hop in and out of their stroller, buckle and unbuckle themselves, move the stroller with their feet, drop the back of the stroller down so they can lounge, dip into the stroller basket at the bottom to grab their ipads??? its time for them to WALK.
5. I'm not here for parents who allow their child to
6. I'm not here for bigger women calling themselves thick. No girl, you are not thick. you're FLUFFY! If ya belly hangs over your belt.... you are NOT thick! if your back has "sister" backs.... you are not thick! etc. You're FLUFFY! I have nothing against big girls! I think they are BEAUTIFUL, but PLEASE know your limits.... you're out of your jurisdiction!
7. I'm not here for women who wear unnaturally colored weaves!! the fact that your hair looks like a box of lucky charms ain't cute.
8. I'm not here for foundation masks *makeup people know what I'm talking about* please stop making these MAC girls turn ya ass into a walking halloween spectacle! The End.
9. I'm not here for lace fronts done wrong! with hair lines that look like a straight line. Sis!
10. I'm not here for students who are failing, and I'm not here for freshmen who are failing their 100 classes. Don't waste people's time, your time and the money that the government and/or your parents are giving you to be there, there are others who want to be in school who are serious and would like that space and money that you are wasting. Merry Christmas, Happy New Year
11. I'm not here for a lot of things, when they come to mind, I will add them to any post that I publish! so be on the look out! :)
*Have a Blessed, productive, prosperous, I'm not here for that year!*
