= THE VENT!---GET IT OUT =...

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...

Here's something that certain offend all you AP underground/pop culture elitists:

= The BET Awards show was well done and tastefully dealt with Micheal's passing under the circumstances. Trying to reprogram a show that has been prepared for months and completely change the focus in 72 hours is near insane. The job they did was nothing short of astounding considering they had to change performances of artists who weren't even present to rehearse, do new band arrangements, extend the show and work with the sponsors, etc.

Yeah BET's a mess but what's new. I only caught the last two thirds of the show and plan to see the rest. Now all you BET haters can hit me with whatever you got. That's my vent / unpopular opinion, & I'm sticking to it, ha!

sorry for bringing up that i work at a hooters, i didn't know it would cause another "male sexuality is hypocritical and bullshit" rant

i was just saying that i hate working there and the current state of the job market has impeded whatever confidence i have in finding another job soon

So? What I said had nothing to do with that. It had more to do with trashy societal standards so many women mindlessly follow.
Hooters, such a great institution. Such a pointless contribution. But all is well because it's tits and ass.

I hate how when anyone criticizes the shallow side of male sexuality they get a "well excuse me for being attracted to women" defense reaction. It's not about that. It should read "excuse me for being so simple". I could do a Pavlov's dog experiment with most men and they would not know the difference. Society coddles and encourages this behavior in men, it's another aspect of the cult of masculinity. And it's sad how men and women are unaware of the pre-programing to uphold oppressive (to men as well as women) social standards.

Yeah if you're the typical male that doesn't care what kind of girl the titties you gawk at are attached to. Male sexuality.. ..so interesting. So full of contradictions and just plain drool over any body part.

working at hooters is by far the worst experience of my life. not a good way of reminding yourself that you suck at life is when you walk into work and you get "Japanese heat" and no one acknowledges you are there

i can't walk outside my house without feeling like a freak, and it's making me sick to my stomach.

but, as much as i hate it, it's a job :(

C'mon. I'm sure there's SOME bright side to working at Hooters. ;-)

Excuse me for admiring female beauty. And yes I do like tits and ass.

No worries, Martin. I was kidding around with the fact that you work at Hooters, Mile de Sade saw an opportunity to spew more small minded, sexist, bigotry. All is good and well at AP s far as I'm concerned :-). Hopefully your next job is better.

Still don't understand what all the fuss is. I laughed until I cried watching Soulja Boy's performance. Same thing happened today when I was thinking about it. "Real" hip hop is not threatened by that dude in the least.
Speaking of which...

Please tell me Mom and Dad are caked down, your down south compound is paid off and you get publishing off all those songs...

OMG! Yeah I know what you mean. Men don't realize they're soooo disrespectful when they do that. If their girl did that infront of them half those fools would be ready to fight.

This really ticked me off...I don't like average smoe guys like that anyways...So i'm doubly pi****...I saw my friend last night at a store. Her boyfriend was with her. I don't like him, but i'm not gonna tell her that. He made some comments about my hair. Like saying it didn't look like a wig...Looked natural, etc etc. That was fine...But I felt that he was flirting with me right in front of her. And she looked so helpless...like it made her insecure, but she didn't want to say anything. I hated that. I said to him...."Yeah.....So Keyona's your girlfriend ...Right?" I did it completely out of spite, and I said it calmly but kind of smug. Then I turned to her and said..."He's your boyfriend?" I said it all happy like.
I just hate that some guys will completely diss their own girlfriend's right in front of their face. First of all...I can understand how some men love the "beauty of all women"...but if you're going to treat her like that, don't have her as a girlfriend, at all. Sheesh.

I like how everyone takes any talk of the cult of masculinity as sexist, whatever- that shit isn't my problem.

People on the street that call you, "Beautiful". Really, hon...I'm NOT dumb. Sometimes I'm slow-witted....But I'm pretty sure I can visualize what happened to the last girl that was gullible enough to believe some random dude thought she was beautiful. If there ever was one...God forbid. Yeah...I *know.

People that gawk at you on the subways when you're reading...Blacks, Whites, Hispanics, Hell Asians...Like they have it in their minds that you're not suppose to know how to read...Or read at all...Probably because i'm black. At least it doesn't take away from my enjoyment of the book.

Having to work for someone else's company 3-9, and beyond every day. Duane mofo-in Reade. From 3-9...I have to work to achieve someone else's dream...Helping the people at the top of the food chain make their huge annual salaries...While I get paid $7.40/hr. I can't read...I can't educate myself...I have to smile and be polite to people I could care less about. And I hate seeing their faces. I'm working towards the future...To the, hopefully, end result that I will one day be above all of this...But as of right now, in this moment, working here *sucks.

The white standard of beauty...The way women of every race try to fit that mold. Seeing Asian women, who've obviously dyed their hair blonde...And have blue contacts. Or seeing everyone wear the same clothes, interchangebly, but still nonetheless in the same upper class Manhattanite manner. There's one thing to do it as a fashion statement...Or a statement of individuality...There's *nothing wrong with that. But sometimes it's so obviously coming from a place that wants more to be accepted

Black people who care more about being accepted as normal, than embracing the individuality of themselves or other people.

Hustleman,
You did a great job of trying to close quickly and creating a sense of urgency/scarcity, but If I had 200 bucks to spend on seafood, WHY WOULD I BUY IT OUT THE BACK OF A PICKUP TRUCK????

Cultural differences are weird sometimes. People outside the Black "community" seem to be shocked that MJ might not be the bio father of his kids. I don't have a degree in genetics, but it's not a big surprise.
