The Flavor of Shade

My baby is a Sour Patch Kid. At any given moment, he's a sour, shady lil' shit and then the next moment he's giving you a hug and trying to kiss your boo-boo's.  For the longest time I couldn't figure out what flavor he was, but I have finally figured it out...

One day, my lil' poo was sitting on my lap when one of my jams came on. And like any other music aficionado, I began to sing with the song. Yeah, well Mr. Poo wasn't having it that morning. He proceeded to put his little 2-year old hand over my mouth, closed his eyes, shook his head back and forth and uttered a righteous "Uhh Uhh." When I tried to sing through his hand, he squeezed my mouth tighter and kept up with the "Uhh Uhh's."

Yeah, I know his flavor. He is the utter epitome of the flavor of shade. And I'm here for every minute of it because I am sure he can teach me a thing or two. I'm amazed that I only got a small piece of the "shade" gene and it all went to my baby...and he's the only one of my three that got it. I'm impressed

Stuck on Stupid

Have you ever met or come across someone that just insisted on being stuck in a stupid thought or situation?  Like, no matter how much good counsel you provide, how idiotic the other person sounds or how sound your logic is, they just have to be strong and wrong. I had an encounter like this in a comments thread on an urban blog site. Here's how it went:

The only thing that matters, in this case, are ratings. If you watched to hate or watched due to curiosity, you still watched and your watching behavior was noted. Since this isn't a tv series, all they need to do is bank on a day's worth of ratings and they're set. So, for those of you who can't figure out how the movie got so far when it was so bad, now you know and the people at lifetime are all cackling at you.

^^^ they can cackle all they want, but it doesn't change the fact that the movie was bad.

@11:01am They don't care if it's bad...they only need you to watch. Most lifetime original movies suck but that doesn't stop them from continuing to make them

@11:31 that's fine that they don't care, that still doesn't change the fact that it was a bad movie.

@11:38 OMG...no one is debating if the movie was bad or not...why are you stuck on that? The gist of the blog entry is that no matter how bad the movie was, Lifetime still got their coins because people watched that train wreck of a movie.

@11:41 I hear you...but one problem at a time please ;)

@12:17 This is a comment section...therefore, I can talk about whatever I want. As I stated before, the ratings don't change the quality of the movie, which was poor. Of course the ratings were high - in 2001, Aaliyah was on the cusp of becoming huge (even though I agree with Realist that she wasn't the most super talented singer). Those who tuned in only did so to talk about how bad it was. It's not like the repeats will garnish those types of numbers, because they won't...and when they do air it, all people will do is talk about how bad it was.

@12:42pm...forget it. The point I was trying to make is lost. I'm saying one thing and you're still talking about something else. Enjoy your day and be blessed.

@1:11 Forgotten. You have your point, I have mine. I can read, I know what the post was about. You've missed my point as well. Have a nice day as well.
