Hello Again, My Lovelies! TGIF!!
Here I am again, blessing your lifespace with the funniest tweets from my Twitter stream. I can’t believe I’ve made it up to 22 episodes of this series. I’m glad you all love it!
So, who’s giving the most funny this week? Cast your vote in the comment section! Remember, these are all clickable links, so feel free to follow your favorites!
Hello My Lovelies! The other night, I joined a Facebook group called Contemporary Natural Hair. I saw a link posted on the Natural Hair stream on Twitter, so I went ahead and checked it out. I like it. While I was perusing the groups newsfeed, I came across this video that someone obviously posted for all of the Naturalistas (that’s what I call all the Natural Hair Divas) to get a good laugh. It’s a clip of what seems to be a discussion about natural hair on a modest Public Cable Access talk show. One girl is wearing a weave and the other girl is rockin’ her afro. Ms. Weave was attempting to school Ms. Afro on what constitutes “natural hair”. Hilarity ensues! Check it out:
What was funnier than Ms.Weave’s gross misunderstanding of what natural hair is (well, not really funny…just plain old ignorant) were the faces that Ms. Afro was making the entire time while respectfully sitting there and letting Ms. Weave speak with so much authority about something she knows NOTHING about! Ms. Afro was bustin’ at the seams! She couldn’t believe what she was hearing. I laughed nonstop while watching this video! This had to be the funniest thing I’ve watched in forever. Ms. Afro’s Side-Eye deserves a place in Nurse Amy’s Side-Eye Hall of Honor:
Umm...I don't think so.
Now you KNOW you are wrong as all damn day!
You can't believe the bullshiggity you are saying right now. Seriously??
I’m gonna need her to check out www.blacknaps.org, www.onyxroseonline.blogspot.com and www.bglhonline.com to get some true education on what natural hair is! She is lost! So just because you wear an Afro, you’re just supposed to wash and [maybe] condition it and go on about your business to be truly natural? I guess we’re not supposed to comb or brush is either, huh?? This girl is crazy. Did you hear her talking about what chemicals are in relation to natural hair after she made it CLEAR that she WILL be getting a perm as soon as she takes that weave out! LMAO!!! Girl, find a seat and have it.
Don’t get me wrong: I know a lot of Naturalistas wear a weave as a protective style, especially in winter when the cold weather tries to beat up our precious kinks/curls/coils. But this girl…no. Just plain old haughty and ignorant.
Lawdy!!! Shea butter is a chemical!! *smh* iCan’t!!
What are the biggest myths you’ve come across about natural hair? What don’t YOU understand yourself??
I have a very reliable support group when it comes to my insatiable appetite for Foolery on the Innanets. I can always depend on Luvvie, NaturallyAlise, Alex, Nurse Amy or Nova to send me some shyt that will send me over the edge. This time we get to thank Nova for this…thing. THIS THING!!!
I’m going to let you first look at this video to see what has had me in a constant state of giggle fits/state of bewilderment for the past 12 hours or so:
My first thought after seeing this? “Is that THELMA from Good Times?? She is too good for this!!” I don’t know about anybody else, but as a young black girl, Thelma was the epitome of the intelligence, sass and beauty that can be found in the so-called “‘Round The Way” girls of poor urban communities.
A Negronian Tresure
I was only a tiny tot when “Good Times” was on the air, but since it has lived on in perpetuity thanks to Nick @ Nite and TV Land, there isn’t an episode I haven’t seen. I love me some Thelma! When I saw Ber’Nadette Stanis, this Treasure of Negronia in this video clip, I *wall slid* then got up and started fighting the air like Trey Styles in Boyz N The Hood.
No, really…WTF is this? This production features just about every leftover Black actress from the last 20 years of sitcoms. The casting call had to have included a coupon for 25% off of the store bought hair of your choice. All they had to do was show up. I see Tempestt Bledsoe, everybody’s least favorite Cosby Kid, Elise Neal, who couldn’t pin down relevance with a dart gun and that irritating ass Essence Atkins, who is a nerve-plucker on the strength of that dumb name alone. “Essence”…girl, you should be mad at your mama.
Let’s not forget about the men…well, let’s. They’re all some bammas. Nephew Tommy?? GTFOH!!! LMAO! Gon’ from ’round here in those last season Steve Harvey Collection suits!
I honestly couldn’t figure out if this is a comedy or some campy, colored melodrama. The voice-over sounded like parody of itself. I don’t know if I was supposed to laugh, but I guarantee you I did!
This straight-to-DVD/future coaster is a mess. The only people who will love this bumbling bullshiggity are the same people who think Zane is this generation’s Alice Walker. I feel like this screenplay was adapted from one of those Arabesque Romance novels I see at the grocery stores in the ‘hood.
So awesome to me.
Miss Ber’Nadette, you are too fine for this mess. Keep writing your books and find some better acting projects.You are above this bootleg mess. Don’t get caught up with these D-Listers. The little girl in me needs you to continue to be great!!
This tweet set off a stream of high powered roasting on my Twitter timeline the likes of which I haven’t seen in a number of weeks. Ms.Adams, a self-proclaimed “Model. Host. Blogger. Writer. Entertainer. Socialite. Radio Host. Ustream Queen. Dare Devil” was interested in getting into some mischief and mayhem. “Debauchery” for us common folk. Homegirl misspelled the f*ck outta that word. My twitter family and I live for moments like these, because it highlights the absolute ridiculousness of the “Twitter Model” and gives us something to laugh at for as long as we feel like laughing. What’s more entertaining are the responses that are shot back:
Being the thorough and fair person that I am, I decided to go check up on Ms.Adams’ claim. Debotury IS indeed in the Urban Dictionary:
adj. (de-BOT-ur-ee). Wild and crazy hooligan-ish behavior; Chaotic; Outside the acceptable social limits of behavior; Shennanigans.“Last night was some strait drunken debotury.” “What kind of debotury? You mean, like total anarchy or animal sodomy type shit?
It was submitted by a person named Veronika who also submitted the ever so classy “Salty Shamrock”. Let that sh*t marinate for a minute.
Debotury also had only 12 ratings on UrbanDictionary.com, 7 of those THUMBS DOWN. Not many people wanna co-sign that f*ckery, especially since there’s already a word to describe for it (“debauchery”) and it ain’t even innovative slang! Stop with the bootleg citations, Ms. Adams. Just because you found it on the Innanets doesn’t make it real. I guess the next thing she’ll tell us is that Tupac is still alive because she saw it on Wikipedia. (~_~)
Really? Any reason why you split the word “uproar” in half, on some ol’ Electric Company type sh*t?
That brings me to this tweet…
Leighyah. LEIGHYAH!!!! Girl, what the hell did you just say?? I cannot abide by this rampant and blatant disfigurement of the English language. You sit up on Twitter with dry-ass wigs, raggedy shoes with ALL your Goodness & Mercy hanging out, claiming to be models/bloggers/writers/stunt doubles/lion tamers but can’t write or spell WORTH A DAMN! Oh yes, you anger me. I hate to see women needlessly make such enormous fools of themselves. And for you to get mad when you get clowned for that bullshiggity is just pointless. Don’t get mad, be glad that you learned something new today. Your attempts to legitimize yourselves based on your follower count is futile. You can’t be taken seriously with your ass hanging out. I’m sorry.
Girl, bye. We don’t believe you. You need more people. Go get them and then we can form a much needed Prayer Circle for you and Ms. Adams. Prayer changes things.
