Afro-punk

Afro-punk

The place to just put out how you feel about anything. Put your emotions & thoughts right now out there; complain, scream, shout out, give props, say 'screw you', say 'thank you', step off, shut up, whatever. Let it out.

Props goes Illaziam the originator who started this with his 'D-Bags' thread. Helped many of us vent out our frustrations, thanks for the carthartic venue Mr. Ill, make your voice heard!

Setting it off:

= Enough with the Obama-mania already. Put a moratorium on the overdone coverage until fall.

= Hey Miss Big Breasses, I believe you know damn well how you look when you leave the house. Yeah it's hot but if you didn't feel secure with that tight spaghetti-strap top that hugs your bouncy DD assets, don't wear it.

You look foolish walking around the supermarket with your arms covering your chest, grabbing your shoulders like you're trying to give yourself a half-nelson. It's part funny & part frustrating ('cause I couldn't get good glance, damn...). For real though, either wear less revealing clothes or deal with the unsolicted male attention (from nasty gawkers like me).

= You, Mrs. High Level Educator from another school, need to stop acting like you want to get hollered at. Keep the flirty looks coming and I will step to you. Regardless of what your rude, bratty daughter thinks about it. See how she likes it when I'm having breakfast at the house and picking her smiling Mom up for dates.
I'm only halfway joking...

= Dude, how many times am I going to ask you to not tell me any plot details of film I haven't seen? I will hang up on you right now...

I agree too, especially if you suffered serious burn out in high school. Once I got out of highschool I wanted to be free of the jail that is rigorous school but my family wouldn't let me. And that turned out great.
[/sarcasm]

It's hard to be happy when people who aren't in your shoes are constantly telling you what to do and they have a suffocating hold on your life. I just want to be walled off from family. They ruin my life by trying to mold it into their image.

i have to get an ultrasound of my kidneys and an EKG because my blood pressure is high and my nephrologist wants to make sure i'm still in remission. am i still in remission? i have no idea. i'm too tired to fight kidney disease among all the other things i have to deal with in my life. boo kidney disease. but my new guy (who is on here by the way) is going to be there to hold my hand for both of these things. i'm very lucky. but i still have to go back to the doctor on the 18th to talk about these results. i have no idea what they are going to say. i do kinda feel like shit, but hopefully that's my normal crankiness and not something else.

enjoy your health while you have it.

if you are going to be a douche, be a good one, like the vinegar kind. the flower smelling ones are kind of annoying. do vaginas need to smell like flowers? probably not.

^^^ I wish I were lying. If I were lying I'd be happy right now. I come from a family that cannot handle any kind of difference and lives to stamp it out. I just don't know what to do. I feel trapped. I have to hide everything so much I can't even remember feeling fine.

They don't know anything about me and they don't care. They can't have real conversations, don't talk on a personal level. I can't stand it and I can't believe we've lived like this for so long.

They need to come up with puff pastry smelling kind. I'd like it to smell like strawberry shortcake.

Yay for new guy! I always helps to have a dick in times of stress. (if it's not like that, I apologize).

puff pastry? that would smell so yummy and good. i would be all over that. also mango smelling douche would be nice. i think i would enjoy it if my vagina smelled like mango.

some of my family has no idea i'm divorced even though we've been divorced for over a year and some have no idea i moved four states away. i never talk to my family either. i think that's fairly normal. my mom likes me and "gets me". so i think that's enough.

I wish I could that distant from my family. But they insist on nagging and being worrysome. When I'm able I'm going to move and not tell anyone where I am but they'd probably put and apb out on me they're so clingy.

That's why I want my car to run- I could leave and not come back without asking for a ride and having control.

Reply to This

the only way i got to be so distant was having a job where i had to work every weekend and every holiday so i never really had to deal with them. if you could find a job like that, then that'd be a good start. but yeah if you live with them, then i can imagine that would be kinda hard to deal with. that was one of my main reasons for going to college, i had to get away from all of them.

I hate them all too. Some days I'm just sick- they're all so fake- no one talks to one another just stupid superficial bullshit. No one has a real personality or wants one. No one thinks for themselves and they tend to ostracize those who do. Big time.

I'm tired of being treated like an invalid, an ill person because I want more than a dull, boring life based on conventions thought up by dull boring people.

I had a job like that, it sucked. I was always the less clever person who never lied like the others ("I have school so I can't work 5 days a week" or any of the other lies lazy people tell to get out of work) so I ended up getting worked to death. I know better, now. I'll lie just like the rest of the lazy children.

I also went to college but didn't want to be there (and they wouldn't listen- life is just a conveyor belt people's feelings don't matter you just go through the motions) so I left. Then because my point wasn't clear enough I enrolled in another college because they can't take no for an answer and my life isn't mine to live, it's theirs to direct.

Blocking every thing out only got me so far- by the time I was done I was so numb. Yay for blocking everything out, it's still working- kinda.

Blocking everything out and going through the motions other people want you to go through is the only way to get through life.

edit- and distractions. they are helpful. I read a lot of books and watch a lot of movies. they help me forget my life will never be my own. ..at least not for the next 3 years.

i got married and had a baby so i could have my own family. i still believe in families. and i do want to have one of my own, and i love being a mom, so that's something. and i guess me and jake are a family right now which is good because i have no friends here.

"the golden girls" are my family. we talk every night.

I've loved the Golden Girls since I was 11 or 12 and discovered them on Lifetime. I'd never been exposed to witty, intelligent women who were sexual and had a firm stance on womanhood like that. I recently started watching it in the mornings on Hallmark when I wake up and on Hallmark when I go to bed. I think that show is partially keeping me alive. I just love the writing, they don't write shows like that anymore. I think it's because most writing staffs on most modern comedy shows have been white washed.

All of the great shows that have been canceled in the last 10 years have mostly had mostly jewish or at least omni-racial writing staff. Which explain why most new comedy shows on the big 3 are just so unfunny it's mind boggling how they even got to be so unfunny.

I really do think that was a plan because American comedy is already so Jewish-influenced and was founded that way someone's trying to take back the night.

And that, that keeps me going too. Long, irrational discussions about comedy.

Oh, oh and the Arrested Development movie. That keeps me alive. And the thought of writing comedy after I get this damn english. ...major thingy.

Lou Dobbs=Douchebag
If they succeed in getting Lou Dobbs of off supposedly liberal CNN, he'll probably end up on Fox News.

Seems kinda one sided to me.He said illegal aliens" not latinos. Not all latinos are illegal. Ihate the illegal equals latino stuff that comes from both sides of the issue.
