Met this Triathlete type jawn last night.
2% body fat, 6 foot tall, nice body but man I just couldn't get into her physically. I need some BUtt to hold onto, Some belly fat, some sloppy greasy tatas to rub my face in.

Damn shame cause she is a OR Nurse with lotsa bank and a great personality. But I have no urge to ever see her again. ARGH

Bring on the broke, need to be saved sloppy greasy chicks with the pretty face. Captain save a hoe to your rescue....

Guess now is as good a time as any though...

Short version:
Crisco has a high success rate and proven record of obtaining happiness and providing happiness to females that are on the "fringe" of common standards of beauty and have self image issues. He has developed a very precise lane as a result of years of controlled testing. A very long proof if you will.

I love my wife, I love my kid

but since I've been married I have been dealing with a lot of anxiety.

I married late in life which was a good decision but that also means that I spent a LOT of time alone before being married, so now that I have a co-pilot who is really really driven (I'm driven as well but I have a different approach) I'm having a hard time dealing with the fact that my life is not exactly my own anymore and I have to deal with the reality that I shoulder the worries and concerns and dreams of another person.

I often think about my old life and how easier it all was but then I realize that my life has gotten 1000% richer because of my wife and child. I also realize that even though I had a lot of shit figured out as a single person I was not exactly living right.


No matter where you go, there you are.

lives in LA and makes good money in the industry but he called me up to tell me he is downsizing and living humble for a minute to get shit in order.

I just listened and gave words of encouragement.

For years I know he has kinda chuckled at some of the moves I made since getting married but I think now that he is in it he see's what you are seeing.

It's no longer you, or me..

This Is Us!!

I also think as soon as you get married life immediately throws you a curve ball. Back when I was single, shit seemed so easy. Everything fell into place.

Days like this I miss Sha Mecca

shit aint funny now
and thats not to say marriage is bad
but it is a house of cards that needs to be blocked from anything that could teeter it over

for example...im fourth on the depth chart right now

1)Work
2) Kids
3) School
4) Me

now at first when that depth chart came to me...i was pissed
but then i had to review my own depth chart from 10 years ago

1) Work
2) School
3) Tutoring
4) Her

But I was first to her at that time
which caused some issues
i got another job and we put each other first for some years
kids came...shit switches

the work comes when those dynamics change

and the topic of the M word has come up...i got alot of love for the gal but i love my free time (read:peace and quiet time) SO MUCH. plus although ive never been married ive been in a few LTRs and i know how much work they were, so i can only imagine how much work actually being married must be. do i want to work that hard? SHOULD i want to work that hard? lol. she and i had this same convo the other day almost verbatim regarding how much work relationships take...i dont think she was tryna see my stance too tuff.

i told her the prospect of growing old alone was never a fear of mine (im 46) and that im not anti marriage, but ive never really stressed it either...like if it happens it happens, if not then not(not in regards to her but just in general).

but i guess the question is, how hard should you (have to) work in order to exist with someone ELSE? its a strange prospect to ponder. at what point does it become another job? and i love my girl dearly, but all i ever heard growing up (my parents were together 44 years until my pops passed few years ago) from my parents and fam and just in general from ppl is how much work marriage is. it makes me nervous lol.

I can't lie this shit is fucking with me, and I don't consider myself a vain person at all.

I currently have it braided and have been using a black colored gel to cover up the spot, but I hate this.

He is sick with dementia but I posted about his birthday on facebook and some moving stuff came in. A couple of highlights from people from the community:

"Happy birthday to the greatest man I know. It wasn’t your responsibility, but you’ve been the closest thing to a father I’ve had. As a teenager, I remember us having so many disagreements because of the difference in our age. But for every argument, we had twice as many times where we would laugh and talk nonsense. At times, I reflect on your condition and realize how unfair life is. You stepped into my life at a point where I needed you the most. Although you may have forgotten a few things, I’ll hold onto the memories forever. You taught me to be a man, and for that, I’ll be forever grateful."

"Happy birthday to Mr. P! A great motivator for Buddy and his friends. As a child, we appreciated all of the pizza parties, bball games at the crib, sleepovers and motivational discussions about progress! Loved every minute of it! Growing up in XXX County!!!"

"Happy birthday to the man who was THE FIRST to tell me (along with his wife) that I would be "perfect for Howard University" after seeing me perform in a piano recital in high school. Happy birthday to the man who, after I enrolled at Howard, directed me to a funding source so I could stay enrolled there. Happy birthday to the man who let me into his office on numerous occasions to send and receive faxes for auditions and other stuff. Thanks Mr. XXXX for your help, your concern and your support. Enjoy your day"


Man I was choked up reading this stuff. Great to hear while they still alive.

like fluidj said...that's the type of impact i'm trying to have in this world.

my grandmother was diagnosed with alzheimer's right when i started high school and moved in with us.

i saw the tole that the care took on my parents...even if you are not the primary caregiver please do make sure you take care of yourself mentally and physically.

it can be a heavy weight to bear.

happy belated birthday to your pops.

it's doing something arduous and
creating something of value and then
being able to reflect on the fruits of your labor

It was already ruined after college, and then a few years later I messed it up even further when I was unemployed. But once I got back to work, I cut up my credit cards, and kept the bills to a minimum. I only have and emergency credit card, and one store card that I pay off in full right after I use it. Zero balance. They hate me, LOL. I've been living like that for about 10 years. If I can't pay cash for it? I leave it alone.

When I had to re-up for a car, they ran a report, and I got approved at a GREAT rate. I was surprised.

that high ass APR makes it much harder to pay shit off and makes it easier for folks to default on car loans.

also, just heard the GOP passed a law making it EASIER for car dealerships to hike up APR's which is usually done to minorities even when white folks have the same credit score.

I'm pretty much fed up with a lot of my friends these days. Not necessarily in a "bad" way, but I'm tired of being the guy who always makes group plans, the guy who picks up the person with no car, and the first one on time, etc. I've been noticing a few of 'em take my friendship for granted. For example, a friend of mine suggested we go out to eat (technically not an invite; more of an i'm-hungry-too). When we got there (after the whole 'who's driving?' bullshit) her pockets were light. Not a big deal, but she just *assumed* I had her covered. Now at the time I didn't really sweat it. But the more I thought about it, that's kinda selfish of someone who's supposed to be a friend. Bottom line, i've kept her at a distance since then.

The last few times I asked friends to help me out on a non-paid project I've been working on, only a couple (actually ONE) have helped me. Most have ignored multiple requests, or played dumb. Cool. I stopped asking.

I'm done with most of em. No hard feelings, I just tend to do more stuff by myself these days. My only worry is that the more I cut them off, the more isolated I've become, which kinda messes with my head. Am I overreacting? Am *I* being a bad friend? Etc.

I just booked an overseas trip and for the first time I'm traveling internationally alone. It feels good, but at the same time I wish I had better peeps in my life.

like if you're distancing yourself from them anyway, you might as well have a candid conversation with them and let them know how you've been experiencing your friendship with them

some may deny it and be life eff you, etc

some may be like, wow you're right and be different

to me, the level of candid conversation you can have with someone is a true indicator of how close you are...

Well, to be honest, I'm pretty sure it would turn into fingerpointing and bad blood. I'm not 'avoiding them' per se. I just don't make a lot of plans with them anymore.

and that's exactly what would happen. So rather than have a falling out, I'll just keep doing my thing until we all have a good reason to be in the same place.

Ennh. For the person I mentioned above, it might be too far gone. She won't change. That's the hard part. She's got a good heart, but she's selfish, and oblivious when it comes to her own shortcomings.

I've been playing the keys heavy recently, trying to catch up on my music theory. NOT ONE of my friends plays an instrument. Cool, but that means more alone time for me. Same with the bicycles and motorcycles, jogs/hikes through the woods, gardening, etc.


Maybe try to find some common ground? The only friends I really still hang with are guys that I can do some activity with.

First off, if you there that means you buying coffee which means you support said business.

But is starbucks the only employer in the country with racist employees?

I guess I wonder how this story became so much about Starbuck and not the police.

If I have an employee who does something racist or otherwised fucked up, I would free them, apologize and try to make it right with the victim and do something to make sure it doesn't happen again.

Starbucks appears to have done all that, what more do you want from them?

The cops have done none of these things and y'all are giving them a pass?

Again, you all have it all wrong if you think the cops had to arrest these guys OR even kick them out of the shop just because the woman says so. The cops are not Starbucks private security force and shouldn't enforce discriminatory practice in violation of civil rights laws.

"Everyone has a plan until you punch them in the face. Then they don't have a plan anymore." (c) Mike Tyson

Starbucks didn't call the police; a racist white woman did

the cops could have also just asked the men to leave and not taken them into custody...especially if they'd asked the other patrons around them what happened

when a situation isn't charged, which it clearly wasn't, i feel like the police should play a different role..not just to be robots who arrest whoever some store manager tells them to arrest

that gives her more power than their actual training. that doens't sit well with me

i should not be able to direct cops to arrest people in a non-charged situation. i want them to ask questions first.

she doesn't rep herself, she reps the company.

and I don't want to defend the cops but if you come to a business and the manager wants people removed, what are you going to do if they refuse to leave?

and you refuse to leave they will cuff you.

From what I read they gave the men an option to leave and they refused.

While I have no love for police this is an incident where I think they weren’t in the wrong given how the call transpired. Now if they weren’t given the option to leave once the cops arrived then sure, I would place some blame on them but the majority of on the manager who amplified the situation.

****************
TBH the fact that you're even a mod here fits squarely within Jag's narrative of OK-sanctioned aggression, bullying, and toxicity. *shrug*

any black people in my store, please ask all the black people to leave.

We know the cops can't carry that out. That's the extreme example.

In this instance the cops should have spent a little time asking, "well why do you want them to leave when other people are here and not buying stuff?"

It would have been annoying and harrassing if they went over and asked the brothers what they were doing there. But when the brothers said we are waiting for someone and we will buy coffee when they get there, that should have been enough for the cops to go back and talk to the owner or otherwise descalate the situation.

You talking about me giving starbucks a pass but I can't understand why you want to give the cops a pass when we KNOW they have a systematic history of racist abuse of their authority.

now why would cops play detective and go around asking for other peoples receipts?

like I said earlier. Police aren't the BBB. They aren't there to check receipts and talk to every customer to see who paid and who didn't.

They were called to remove 2 dudes and gave them the option of leaving voluntarily. They refused. The fuck else cops going to do? At that point it is trespassing since the manager wanted them gone.

There are way too many other incidents with cops where we can shit on them. This isn't one of them IMO.

What? That's silly. Not play detective. Just do their jobs and be cops. And start by asking the Manager why does she want the two men removed?

Is it really that hard?

If the cops have done there job as peacekeepers and spent a little time talking to the manager as to why she wants them to remove. Likely, her reasoning will crumble and it all could have been resolved.

I've got a ton of law enforcement in my family and they will tell you that they spend most of their time talking to people and trying to resolve disputes in real time (i.e., peacekeepers). That's the biggest change you have seen in cops lately. Back in the day you call the cops on a domestic dispute and they go there and talk people down. These days it seems like they go in guns blazing because they so bitchmade.



You are of the opinion that she can have them removed for any reason at all and that's not the law. She can't have them removed just because they are black.

there wasn't any violence or shouting...

second, while she can't have them removed for ANY reason she gave them a reason. They didn't buy anything and refused to leave when asked.

third, they asked the dudes to leave and they refused.

now, maybe I'm wrong but if you give people the option to leave or get cuffed and they refuse.. that's trespassing by law right?

cops jobs are to de-escalate the situation peacefully and IMO they did just that.

Ain't no cop playing detective in a Starbucks when folks refuse to buy something and the manager calls the cops on them. No guns were drawn, no threats were made.

I'm mad I'm defending cops and shit but damn, this was the most peaceful handcuffing of 2 Black men I ever seen and folks trying to make it seem like they were bloodied and bashed.

expectations of how the cops are suppose to treat people. The rest you said I responded to before, the manager has no right to ask them to leave because they are black. She has no right to treat them differently because they are black. The cops don't have to cuff them up and remove them simply because she said so.

I don't think it's that hard to understand.

Nope. But we're talking about Starbucks.

Because a simple Microagression by a racist fuck in charge of a Starbucks could've had a FAR worse outcome. Imagine if those two brothers hadn't been as peaceful.

We've seen a guy get killed for selling loose cigarettes and another for selling CD's. We would've added "Waiting for a friend at Starbucks" to that fucked up list.
