In 1910, collectively blacks owned 15 million acres of land of which 218,000 black farmers were full or part owners. By 1992, the US Census Of Agriculture reported there were 18,000 black farmers left owning 2.3 million acres. Thank the USDA. fotog: John Francis

Good morning Nick and Comeback!!!!!
Hey chica. how u?
hey yall i am not in a good mood today.
Girl, I’m good…… Went to the mall last night and did some damage and now I’m having buyer’s remorse…. LOL
And then my momma just called me asking me was I coming home this weekend….So now I probably will. (I was trying to work something out with my dad where I could miss father’s day and we’ll celebrate later)… This will be like my 6th weekend in a row on the go…. I’s tired….lol
What’s wrong Mik?
What’s wrong Mik?
@80s: U and my homegirl. lol.. she is forever tearing a store up and then going and taking everyting back. Understandable in thie T.E.T. lol
I was on fb this morning and a so called friend tried to put me on blast!
she is forever tearing a store up and then going and taking everyting back.
@Nick… Man, last night I went ahead and went through everything to get my “take back bag” ready…. Only thing I came up with is a bra that I can’t fit from Vicky’s and this belt from the Limited is a possible. I don’t know whether I want to keep it or not….
I really can’t be too mad though because everything I got was on sale and I had coupons and what not…. LOL
I was on fb this morning and a so called friend tried to put me on blast!
@Mik… TELL US MORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Which one Mikki???? Is that the pic where the girl asked if you were preggars??? Bc I wanted to say something but I was like hole up’, maybe they have that kind of relationship.
@80s: Not two things. LMAO.. I need u to go’ne head and keep them.. but if you can’t fit the bra, u can’t really do nothing with it (save it for a bday gift)
I had that pic up of me n whyso and she writes “im guessing this is the married friend he is good looking “wink” as if to say i am messin with a married dude. First off thats not him and secondly y would u even imply somethin like that when u know i dont get down like that.
SHT UP MIK… wow. Why would she even put that on facebook? Uh, other people can read that stuff
Nic the preggers comment was cool, thats my homie n she can joke with me like that. But this other comment i had to get rid of because folks will be thinkin all kinds of wrong things, i was pissed cuz she knew goodin well that was not him.
@Mik: Aw good that yaw was cool. lol. I’m glad I ain’t said nuttin.
And good job on deleting that… she was off the chain for that one.
She knows all about my married friend and its not somethin i hide because its just a friendship but she knew sayin that would have folks questioning me.
@Nick…..The belt is still in it’s bag with the receipt as a just in case… But the bra is in my backseat waiting on me to take it back this evening when I get off….. LOL
Last night I was clowning though, I got 2 lil casual dresses, 1 pair of jean bermuda shorts, a black short sleeved button up, 3 pair of earrings, 1 necklace, and some lil stuff from the beauty side of Victoria Secret. (That was 75 % off) lol
I want to smack the living daylights outta her lol.
Oh and Mik… About your friend… You should tell her that wasn’t cool!!! So she won’t be trying to do that mess again thinking it’s “funny”……. She is wrong for that… That is definitely not nothing to play with.
80’s u was clownin lol
Yea 80’s i am feelin all kinds of violated even tho i deleted it im like what the effy?? I told he i was with whyso too that day and its plenty pics of him but i guess she forgot all about that convo.
I am gonna say somethin cuz she was clearly tryin to be funny n get stuff started
@Mik…I was….. But my disclaimer is I ain’t buy nothing full price.. lol
@80s: LOL. U were tearing the mall up! Ain’t nothing wrong with it when done in moderation.
Mik, I am with 80s.. u should say something to her about it… Plus he can read also, and if you would have tagged him, his woman may have seen that.
Lol 80’s yea but 75% off can still be like 50 bucks lol u aint slick haha!
Ain’t nothing wrong with it when done in moderation.
@Nick…. Exactly… That’s why I have to stay out of there. Otherwise I’ll be in trouble, trouble. (wonder if Comeback watched Player’s Club yet)
Good Morning all!!!!
@ Mik – Is this the friend that’s talking to a married guy herself?
@ 80’s – Nothing wrong with treating yourself!
Morning, y’all. I am TIRED this morning. Lord, help me through this hump day.
@Mik: That comment was wrong (joking or no joking)…especially since other people can see it. It wasn’t even the right person and people run with that kind of stuff. Definitely not a good way to start the day. I hope she apologizes if she hasn’t already.
“@Nick…. Exactly… That’s why I have to stay out of there. Otherwise I’ll be in trouble, trouble. (wonder if Comeback watched Player’s Club yet)”
LMAO. Hear?
Comeback, where you at?
(I seen’t CB4 again like two nights ago. lol)
hey V!
@ 80’s – I have been REFUSING to buy full price lately. Can’t do it. Won’t do it!
Lol 80’s yea but 75% off can still be like 50 bucks lol u aint slick haha!
@Mik… I was talking about the stuff from Victoria Secrets…… The lil stuff I got in there was 75% off…. I got like 4 things and only paid like 15.00
And then in the Limited.. I had a spend 100 get 50 off coupon.. That’s where i spent the most
And then in Bebe I just got some earrings and used a 10.00 off coupon so they were like only 10.00 bucks.
See I was bargain shopping!!!
The Limited is thee best store for workstuff.
The Limited is thee best store for workstuff.
@Nick… Yep and I like their purses…..I’m more of an Express person myself but I had to go where I had the coupons… LOL
I used to like Express but now I am more of conservative. lol. Plus Express increased their prices something furious. I used to work there back in the day
bgrits introduced me to your blog. Love it! Smart thought provoking commentary and comments. I miss reading on days you have nothing to say…Keep up the good work!
Hey Samara.. and welcome!
Ok 80 u are approved lol, i need to shop with u!!!
V no my girl is livin in indiana with some guy 15 years older than her she needs to get a life!
Shawnta i agree, me n this guy have been friends for 2 years and we have NEVER crossed no lines like that and i only see him once in a blue moon. I dare not mess with married men karma is a beast!
Hey samara!! Care for some cheese n crackers?
@Nick… I don’t buy anything out of Express unless I have a coupon or it’s on clearance….. But I stay getting a price adjustment from them.
One day after church me and 2 of my friends went to the mall…. And the guy at Express was like great advertisement…. We looked down and all of our skirts and tops were from Express.. We couldn’t do anything but laugh.
“One day after church me and 2 of my friends went to the mall…. And the guy at Express was like great advertisement…. We looked down and all of our skirts and tops were from Express.. We couldn’t do anything but laugh.”
LMAO.. that is hilarious.. girl remember they used to have the $10 jean sales???? (that’s when I was a small girl in stature. lol)
Hey Shawnta! I don’t know why I didn’t see u at first
Hey Samara…..
[Please do not accept Mik's crackers because back in the day it was a lil something mixed in with that cheese.]
@ Mik…. I know you clean and all but you can have a relapse at any moment…. LMAO
Hey Samara!
I love Limited for work stuff too!!! I used to go in there so much, the chick tried to offer me a job.
girl remember they used to have the $10 jean sales????
@Nick… Yep…. Occasionally I can still get jeans from them that price…. Ya just gotta look on the clearance rack because all of them are marked different prices…
I wish I could, 80s. I can’t fit that stuff anymore. Kid. U. Not. lol
Good Morning Everyone,
What’s sad about the black farmers is that they are still waiting for justice. Hopefully Eric Holder and his crew can redeem this situation.
@80’s – I just saw your message on facebook!
Are you going?? I probably will since not much else is going on.
Does anybody care for NY & Co? I have never really been a fan of them. I’ll look at their accessories but that’s about it.
Hey Humble… tell me more about this.
Lmao 80’s im having a moment i need u to talk me down its been a year!
@80’s – I just saw your message on facebook!
Are you going?? I probably will since not much else is going on.
@V.Renee….. I wasn’t really planning on coming home this weekend but my mom has suckered me in.. We may go to the Red’s game on Saturday….
But where is that place at? Have you been to something there before?
@Samara
Welcome to the treehouse.
@ Humble – Aren’t the black farmers pissed at Obama and ‘em right now?
@80s: NY & Co’s quality has went WAAAAYYYY down. Like stuff you’d buy out of one of those generic mail order catalogs, so I don’t go in there anymore.
Lmao 80’s im having a moment i need u to talk me down its been a year!
@Mik… Don’t pick up the crack!!!!! How’s that?
@ I like Lerners (I just can’t call it NY & CO) accessories. Clothes – eh not so much.
@ 80’s – The place they’re talking about is around the corner from Mixx. Do you know where the pizza place is that’s up the street from Mixx (lucy blues??)? If so, its literally right around the corner from there.
Mik has replaced crack with shopping.. what u looking like today?
God, V. did u have to say pizza? (my favorite food).. i promise that one word just conjured up fantasies in my head.. and it made me hungry
Hi Samara!
Welcome to the treehouse.
I’m serving grits, turkey sausage, eggs, toast and coffee this mawning…
Coffee, tea, anyone?
Lol 80’s and i cant even get my dave fix so im really havin issues lol
Do you know where the pizza place is that’s up the street from Mixx (lucy blues??)? If so, its literally right around the corner from there.
@V…… The only pizza place I know is the pizza window. Well, that’s we call it….. Is that the pizza place you’re talkin about?
@ Nicki – With the farmers, pretty much the USDA has been denying them loans. Farmers need money up front (loans, subsidies or whatnot) to grow, and at the end of the season, they pay off any loans. Well the USDA had been discriminating against the black farmers and not giving them money. SO they filed a class action suit against them.
Well last year Obama pretty much said he was on the farmers side if they wanted to file another discrimination change against the USDA. And now they don’t see support from the administration.
@V Renee & Nicki
As far as I know Obama’s administration has done nothing about this issue.
@ 80’s – Yes the pizza window (I love that place!! and the chick with golds that mans the window)! Well if you make a left at that corner, the place is like 2 doors down. Upstairs from the g.a.y club.
@Samara: Welcome.
Lol nic i was havin a hard time this mornin cuz of all the mess but i went ahead n made it through!!
I got on grey slacks peach cami and white dress shirt over it. I wanted to put on my gym shoes but i couldnt find them lol. So count this as day 10 by default lol

WOW yaw.. Considering I’m one of those girls who runs from polities, I never know any of this was going on. That is not right. You mentioned filing ANOTHER lawsuit- how did the first one go or is it still pending? Do yaw know the “reasons” aka excuses the USDA is giving them for not loaning money?
@Yaya’s
None of you shop at Rainbow?
“I got on grey slacks peach cami and white dress shirt over it. I wanted to put on my gym shoes but i couldnt find them lol. So count this as day 10 by default lol”
@mik: If you would’ve put on them gym shoes with that nice outfit then I would have pulled out a nuclear weapon.
Ha! U couldn’t find them (“gooood, is try’na tell u some-than”)
Thanks for the food jac!! My cheese n crackers wasnt approved
What’s Rainbow Humble?
@ Nicki – If I’m not mistaken they won the first class action suit.
As for the “reasons” of the USDA, who knows. I’m sure they have numerous excuses.
@Nick
It’s a pretty rocky problem we’re having with the Obama administration…I wouldn’t say he’s back-pedaling but I think we have to realize he is one man with a lot of people working under him…but still, there’s only so much that can be done during the course of the day…remember it’s still early in his presidency and we have to remember we have (not to belittle farmers) much bigger issues to deal with.
What’s Rainbow Humble? .
Yeah what’s rainbow?:??? The thing in the sky after a storm???
Yes the pizza window (I love that place!! and the chick with golds that mans the window)!
@V. Renee… I.do.not like that pizza window. Years ago this lady who was working there had some of the longest fake nails… And I was just instantly disgusted when I seen them nails touchin my piece of pizza…. I ain’t been back…. LOL
Hmmmm I ain’t even know anything was two doors down from there…. Have you been to anything there before?
And please go to SSSO and answer the question about freakiness…and umm my question on prep.
@Nicki
The previous lawsuit was lost during the Bush administration.
Ya’ll stop hustling Hummy.
Rainbow is the little 5*7*9 like store usually found next to Simply Fashions etc.
And I do-for camis and stuff that I’ll likely replace every 3mos or so.
None of you shop at Rainbow?
@Humble…. You will not insult the YaYa’s like that…… Yall Rainbow is like another Rave..
That’s okay Hummy. That’s why the U.S Polo Association outfit that you wanted is in the mail
“As for the “reasons” of the USDA, who knows. I’m sure they have numerous excuses.”
Exactly… like everything else.
“The previous lawsuit was lost during the Bush administration.”
@Humble: WoW. Is this something the Great Jesse and the other man with the hair is helping on?
Lmao nic i left them at my moms so yea that was gawd!!
Al Sharpton- that’s his name! Forgive me brethren!
“Yall Rainbow is like another Rave..”
Screw that… only really skinny girls can get away with wearing those clothes!
@Mik…I’m with Nick.. It wasn’t meant for you to wear them gym shoes…. And wait how you gon to 10 days’s by default? The weekend was included?
Humble if u know n e one over 12 that shops at rainbows put them on blast
And Cami’s are allowed from Rainbow…That’s the only thing that is excused… Heck, I’ve bought a cami from Wally world before.
http://www.rainbowshops.com
Yea the weekend i was cute too! I had to change once when i was dancin but other than that i was on point!
Yepppp, from that site, I see RAVE written all over it.
And I agree, camis can come from there, though. lol
@ Mik…. Oh okay… Just checking
That’s why the U.S Polo Association outfit that you wanted is in the mail
When I was younger I thought that was a real Polo brand, I had a friend who would buy entire Polo Association outfits
There is some cute styled stuff but the quality is probably gah-bage
Nic u will not believe when i was at wet seal i tried on a size 13 they still aint fit!! It took me a min to realize my butt was to big for their jeans! I was proud lol
Mik, are u having a lifestyle change here?
What on earth is U.S Polo Association???? People used to buy fake Tommy Hilfiger outfits and wear them. lol. I’d crack up.
“Nic u will not believe when i was at wet seal i tried on a size 13 they still aint fit!! It took me a min to realize my butt was to big for their jeans! I was proud lol”
Girl, hear?? It’s not made for us. LOL. My lil friend TY (the bride) got some cute t’s from there. lol. I wish I would.. Those shirt would stretch and snap.
When I was younger I thought that was a real Polo brand, I had a friend who would buy entire Polo Association outfits
@No More…. I ain’t gonna lie I did too.. Until my friend blasted me when I said I thought something was cute….
My lil cousin wears that stuff like crazy. Shoes and all……. I buy him the real stuff and show him the difference. I’m like this is the real Polo… U.S. Polo Association is knockoff!!!! But he still don’t get it…. Hopefully he’ll get it before he turn 16… I got a couple more years to keep workin on him.
@80s
You are wrong for that. You will NEVER EVER catch me in US Polo Association. I’m way to fly for that.
What on earth is U.S Polo Association????
@Nick…. Hummy’s favorite brand of clothing…. LOL
The kids are still wearing polo????
You are wrong for that. You will NEVER EVER catch me in US Polo Association. I’m way to fly for that.
@Hummy… LMAO. You tried to put us in Rainbow!!!!! The Yaya’s is too fly for that childis ish!!!!!!
“@Nick…. Hummy’s favorite brand of clothing…. LOL”
LMAO!!!!
Hummy got heated for that one.. he said he was way too fly… well go’ne head then!
People used to buy fake Tommy Hilfiger outfits and wear them. lol. I’d crack up.
I remember all that fake stuff cuz in high school a lot of people would wear it…Tommy Gear, there was one that had FNBN stylized like FUBU but the ‘U”s were upside down “n”’s…The cats that had the face Iceberg and it just said Ice B…my favorite was this one chick who had a fake DKNY shirt, but nowhere on the shirt did it say D-K-N-Y consecutively, it would be like D%NY, DK#Y, DKN&
The kids are still wearing polo????
@Nick… As in Polo Ralph Lauren. I see a lot of guys in it.
When I use to mess with hoodrats I noticed how many of them shopped at Rave and Rainbow. In matter of fact we use to hang with a crew of chics that worked at Rave.

@Hummy… So now the truth comes out…. Hummy, think the yaya’s is a bunch of hoodrats who shop at Rainbow…. LMAO…. Oooohhhh Hummy you ain’t right…. Ha ha
“With his soft skin.”
@sunny: smh. you’re silly …
@everybodyelse: Good morning. Hope this hump day is treating you well … Monica has a hilarious rant today if y’all wanna come over TMCY and peep it …
No: U have killed me with all those fake brandings. lol. Is it ever that important to dress name brand that a person would buy fake?
“@Nick… As in Polo Ralph Lauren. I see a lot of guys in it.”
80s: I’m so out of touch!
HUMMY LIKES HOODRATS, HUMMY LIKES HOODRATS.
@Damon: LOL. But his skin does look soft and tight!
@No….. I had a friend who wore her fake tommy jacket religiously. I don’t even know if she knew that is was fake…. I should bring it up now and see what she says…. Ha Ha Ha… Like uh did you know that your tommy jacket was not real…..
The worst was the sweaters though….. I hated the fake sweaters… Those were the worst in all knock off brands.
Lmao yall will not believe my whole office just got served with a proper attire notice!! Talk about Gods devine plan!! i already started dressin right!!
Praise gawd!
Hey ya’ll! Mikki what you doing online?
@No More
I remember my boy had a fake FUBU shirt. Instead of FB it had PB on it. We called it Pookie Bravo.
Is it ever that important to dress name brand that a person would buy fake?
@Nick….. Heck yeah to some people… That’s why counterfeiting is such a lucrative business….. You see how many of “us” have purse parties and what not with all of them fake purses……
It’s a discount mall around the corner from where my sister say and it’s nothing but Knock Off’s… Whatever you want they have… True Religions, Air Force One’s… Everything….
Before y’all minds get to wondering….We were in there for cd’s and to get my eyelashes done!!!!
Does anyone remember wearing Mickey Mouse jackets (they looked like race car jackets) or what that just a tend here?
THANK GAWD Mikki. I think I’m about to file a formal complaint on the women here for their wake dress. lol. It offends my eyesight
lol What is a wake dress?
OMG I have a funny story about fake clothes.
So back in high school I used to be a straight fool. Well there was this guy at the high school around the corner from us that used to drive this little red Festiva car. Well we all ran in the same circles and I don’t know who got the bright idea to start act like his secret admire and leave “presents” on his car….either way, every day after school we would leave a present on his car. Letters, cookies, anything. Well we started going to the lost and found at our school to leave as presents. One day we took this pair of tennis shoes (they were beat up and had been in there for months) and this “ICEBOX” sweater. We left that on his car, with a note that said something like “I really like you and wanted to leave you Iceberg but couldn’t afford it, so I got you this IceBox sweater”.
Why we ride back around there, and the shoes and sweater had been thrown in somebodys lawn. I don’t think I’ve laughed that hard in my life. Im dying laughing now as I type this.
I remember my boy had a fake FUBU shirt. Instead of FB it had PB on it. We called it Pookie Bravo.
LOL @ Pookie Bravo…i think I remember this. Did it have the lowercase pb that looked the real “fb” logo?
Actually now that I think about it I had some fake Karl Kani shorts in eight grade
“It’s a discount mall around the corner from where my sister say and it’s nothing but Knock Off’s… Whatever you want they have… True Religions, Air Force One’s… Everything….”
DONE.. and wow.. u are right.. us black folks (some of us) Live to STUNT. Just like that 300 conversation we had a while back.
We were in there for cd’s and to get my eyelashes done!!!! .
Ummmmm are the eyelashes knock off too?
Hey Hol!
V: That story has to be the funniest thing I’ve read this morning.
Nick I’m so lost on the convo! Ya’ll get like VSB! LOL! I cant keep up
My mom bought me a fake Coogi one Christmas, LOL
I have a co-worker who has to have every fake designer known to man!!!! She bought a knockoff of my purse and came trying to compare mine against hers.
Ummmmm are the eyelashes knock off too?
@V Renee….You know I didn’t even think to ask if they were human hair or not..lol.All I know is I don’t know what kind of glue that woman used but them eyelashes stayed on for three weeks…..And the only reason they came off then is because I got sick of them and started pulling them off…. I don’t think I can fool with that lady again though because my real eyelashes is over here looking stingy now!!!!!!
“my real eyelashes is over here looking stingy now!!!!!!”
LMAO!
My mom bought me a fake Coogi one Christmas, LOL
@No More…. Ha Ha Ha ha Ha ha
I have a co-worker who has to have every fake designer known to man!!!! She bought a knockoff of my purse and came trying to compare mine against hers. .
You should have told her no comparison needed. All you need to know is my purse is real and yours aint.
@ 80’s – d@mn why they try to stick you for yo eyelashes. That aint right!
“You should have told her no comparison needed. All you need to know is my purse is real and yours aint.”
Wow V!! LOL!
“my real eyelashes is over here looking stingy now!!!!!!”
LMAO!
@Holly… But they were beautiful… I got so many compliments on them. I got short so they just made my eyelashes seem fuller…… Just this weekend some lady stopped me. She was like I’m not trying to put you on blast but I want to show my friend your eyelashes. I guess she had seen them a few weeks earlier. I was like I don’t even have them on no more….lol
Not a fake Coogi! lol…. she prolly didn’t even know.
Hol, one of my girls said that happened to her (she used to buy nothign BUT name brand), but reality set in.
STINGY eyeleshes????? Oh no.. U know they do have that medicine out now for that
My mom bought me a fake Coogi one Christmas, LOL .
Hahahahaha. Did you rock it? Fake or not, there was love behind that purchase.
“You should have told her no comparison needed. All you need to know is my purse is real and yours aint.”
Wow V!! LOL!
@Holly…. I’m with V……. I said if I was too ever splurge on a big boy purse I was taking a picture of me being in the store and making my purchase… So people wouldn’t get it twisted!!!!!!!!! Ha Ha
Lol v i used to drive a festiva !! My first car
@No More
“LOL @ Pookie Bravo…i think I remember this. Did it have the lowercase pb that looked the real “fb” logo?”
Yes that was it. I had another boy that had the fake Fat Albert FUBU.
STINGY eyeleshes????? Oh no.. U know they do have that medicine out now for that
@Nicki…. Me and my sister were having this discussion on whether we think eyelashes grow back or not….. I told her she ain’t gonna have none if she keep messing with that lady and her glue….
But it seemed like the side effects to that medicine was scary… It just kept saying do not apply this anywhere else… I’ll be scared I’ll accidentally drop some on my cheek or something and then I’ll have hair growing out my cheek. I would be too scared to mess with it.
@ 80’s – I will say that your pre-stingy, knock off lashes looked GREAT!!! I remember saying something about them at Happy hour that day.
Wow…I little fake Louis…well I thought it was fake but my cousins wife was like uhhh this is the real deal phil…
Oh ok..ha..I just gave a little girl a Gucci…real small one and she was like omg a FAKE Gucci umm no little girl look again…then she wanted to faint.
Anyways, I have two skirts and a few other things from Simply Fashion–they are so cute.
@80’s- I like the false lashs but I usually get the strip that I can do myself! I am scared of the individials!!
And I feel ya on the purse… because they is getting good with them!
@Nick- I cant carry a fake… but when I do drop the money it’s gotta be a classic piece not anything trendy!
@80s
I wanna try Latisse and with mascara my lashes are so long they brush my glasses.
hell even without that they sometimes do..
I always wanted lip enhancements.
Lol v i used to drive a festiva !! My first car .
It used to be about 5 grown men in that car, skirting around town. It was almost like a clown car…you would look and think how did all 5 of yall fit in that car. You’d see 2 get out, and just know there wasn’t anymore coming out. WRONG. A whold slew of them would keep hopping out.
I will say that your pre-stingy, knock off lashes looked GREAT!!! I remember saying something about them at Happy hour that day.
@V.Renee….. Thanks I’m going back to Atlanta next weekend…… And I really want to get them done again but I’m scared of the end result… So ya’ll see whether I’m fake or still stingy in Chicago… LOL
Interrupting your regularly scheduled program:
Although The CW has dropped the ball on “The Game,” BET might be recovering it for a new season.
BVBuzz.com reports that execs over at BET are close to hammering down a deal to bring new episodes of “The Game” to its channel.
Back in April, BET CEO Debra Lee said the network was in talks to acquire the show, but that it was really coming down to a matter of the budget. Now, an inside source at BET told BV Buzz that new co-president Loretha Jones is working hard to finalize a budget that would allow them to afford the show.
Adding “The Game” to their roster wouldn’t be a bad move for BET as re-runs of the sitcom actually score higher ratings than most the network’s original shows. At news that The CW had cancelled the show, many fans looked to BET to pick it up, too.
Nothing has been set in stone over at BET, which hasn’t offered any official statement on the possible fate of the show just yet.
If this deal does go through, we want to know whether “The Game” would be continuing on as a 30-minute sitcom or a one-hour dramedy like show creator Mara Brock-Akil had pitched to The CW before it was cut from the fall lineup.
“It used to be about 5 grown men in that car, skirting around town. It was almost like a clown car…you would look and think how did all 5 of yall fit in that car. You’d see 2 get out, and just know there wasn’t anymore coming out. WRONG. A whold slew of them would keep hopping out.”
Dead!!!
Lip enhancements Jaci?? Why??? have u tried plumper?
“@Nick- I cant carry a fake… but when I do drop the money it’s gotta be a classic piece not anything trendy!”
AMEN. I can’t either!

You ain’t right. About 8 years ago I roasted my boy about his coat he got from New Yorker. He got mad and cussed me out. The next time I saw him he tore the label off his coat. Keep in mind dude was about 30yrs old at that time.
“@Nicki…. Me and my sister were having this discussion on whether we think eyelashes grow back or not….. I told her she ain’t gonna have none if she keep messing with that lady and her glue….

I don’t really need them…I have full lips and a nice nose and eyes..
My features are good…I have just have a fat face and I’m working on that.
“@V.Renee….. Thanks I’m going back to Atlanta next weekend…… And I really want to get them done again but I’m scared of the end result… So ya’ll see whether I’m fake or still stingy in Chicago… LOL”
@80’s- hmmmm 80’s excuse me???
The hustle-ess is the female version of a hustler by the way.
@Nicki
“Although The CW has dropped the ball on “The Game,” BET might be recovering it for a new season.
BVBuzz.com reports that execs over at BET are close to hammering down a deal to bring new episodes of “The Game” to its channel.”
BET should be creating shows like this in the first place.
I like the false lashs but I usually get the strip that I can do myself! I am scared of the individials!!
@Holly… The lady at the discount mall by greenbriar did mine’s and they were individual…… And she placed them underneath my eyelid……. They were absolutely FLAWLESS!!!!! They were worth every bit of the 25.00 that I paid.
I’ve had the strips as well as individuals and I think the main difference is the fullness…..
@80’s that sounds flawless!! but um…. I’m scared of Greenbriar
“The hustle-ess is the female version of a hustler by the way.”
DEAD AND GONE.
And Hummy, they should be.
hmmmm 80’s excuse me???
@Holly…. I know I know…… It’s for my sister’s graduation… And my mom was trying to make it an in and out trip….
“The next time I saw him he tore the label off his coat”
LMAO, Humble. How he gonna tear the label off like you wouldn’t remember the coat?
uh huh 80’s!! LOL
“BET should be creating shows like this in the first place.”
AMEN again
Lmao V 8 deep?
Holly im on my phone typin!! I need my treehouse fix!
Where them cheese n crackers go?? 80’s did u take them??
He got mad and cussed me out. The next time I saw him he tore the label off his coat. Keep in mind dude was about 30yrs old at that time. .
OMG. This is hilarious.
Thanks for the update Nick!!!
“Holly im on my phone typin!! I need my treehouse fix!”
I feel ya when I was banned I thought I was gonna die… now I am back on and confused as he!l
@ Humble – I agree about BET producing shows like that.
Speaking of which, anybody watching Tiny’s new show coming up?
@80’s that sounds flawless!! but um…. I’m scared of Greenbriar….
@Holly….Girl, that’s my daddy’s spot.. LOL
Where them cheese n crackers go?? 80’s did u take them??
@Mik… Nah, I ain’t take your crack crackers…
@80’s- I heard good come ups happen there… but idk
Speaking of which, anybody watching Tiny’s new show coming up?
@V…. I seen it being advertised last night… If I can handle her talking I might watch it…. But I don’t know…..
@V- Said to say but I will support the fellow Atlien….
Chi-town bound Treehousers check ya email!
I heard good come ups happen there… but idk
@Holly…Girl, we were in one of them stores and my daddy was getting two pair of dress shoes….We had a comeup alright. The lady wasn’t paying attention and only rung up one pair of shoes…..So we got a pair of 89 dollar shoes free.
I’ve probably got stuff here and there from there… I know last time this girl probably midtwenties was in there selling candles that she made…. She was really nice and they smelled good so I bought a few…
Why you scared of it though?
“Speaking of which, anybody watching Tiny’s new show coming up?”
V, I prolly won’t. or may try to and end up not. Her voice is like nails on a chalkboard.
@80s- You aint heard the new stories I done heard… someone got shot in the head in the middle of the mall once!!
@Holly
Got ya…is anyone flying into Midway? I think my cousin will probably pick me up.
Idk Jac…
You aint heard the new stories I done heard… someone got shot in the head in the middle of the mall once!!
@Holly…I can believe it….
I emailed my friend a few kind words
@jac… I’m flying into Midway.
“@Holly…I can believe it….”
So see what I mean!!
“I emailed my friend a few kind words”

“Lmao nic that hair is a distraction!!! I cant listen either. Imma need her to grow her hair back!! This is not the if i was a boy remix!”
LMAO.. hear??? As if she was credible in the first place? Now she REALLY is not.. that hair would be cool if she was gonna come out screaming all rockerish, but instead she’s sing-whispering in this baby soft Charmin voice
Im cool… no real damage to the house and fam just a major inconvenience….and now my mgr is on a lets make every moment count kick and we are having a team building excercise by going to Graceland…LOL but I have never been so Im okay with this outing…

*slaps Nicki on the hand*
Graceland is the home of Elvis Presley where he’s buried etc.
V elvis
“*slaps Nicki on the hand*
Graceland is the home of Elvis Presley where he’s buried etc.”
I know it has something to do with Elvis… just didn’t know what exactly it was.
I’m back from lunch……everytime I got to lunch, I wish I could go home and not back to work.
@Nicki

No more prizes gotdayumit…ok maybe…a bottle of Wild Irish Rose will be at your room in Chi-town.
@Massagees
I cannot take it…I don’t know why…I think I need deep tissue. I’m about to see what the Intercontinental Spa has to offer…anyone else up?
I have a tree question
So my friend who is in a long distance relationship is planning to move to his town for 2 months until school is back in. Her contract at her job is up so she can just go. I asked her where she was gonna stay n she said with him in a diff room. Now she claimin celibate and im wondering how she thinks its ok to live with him for 2 months and actually be ok.
Is this considered shacking?
Whether she likes it or not.
HAHAHAHAHA
Yes it is Mik. Is the this the same friend who was trying to give you relationship advice? I told you about that. Don’t be listening to her and her house ain’t right.
“Holly this friend of mine commented on my facebook pic that u saw of whyso askin was that my married friend as if i get down with other folks men married ones no less.
I said GTFOOHWTBSYCH
sike but i was thinkin it”
@ Mik- Are you f’n kidding me!
@ Jac
I could be down for a massage depending on the cost.
I’m about to see what the Intercontinental Spa has to offer…anyone else up?
@Jac…. Sorry… But this Chicago trip can’t take all my money…. LOL
I asked her where she was gonna stay n she said with him in a diff room. Now she claimin celibate and im wondering how she thinks its ok to live with him for 2 months and actually be ok. .
It may not necessarily be considered shacking IF she’s only there temporarily.
They’re definitely going to have some furniture moving though.
@ Hollyberry
I think my flight gets in around 3:30 pm Chi-town time. But I’ll forward you my flight info in a bit.
@Mik
See my username to get your answer.
“I really worry about you.”
Then I need u to say a prayer for me , JACI
Thanks.
Mik: yes dear.. that is shacking
I’m about to see what the Intercontinental Spa has to offer…anyone else up? .
Naw. I only like foreplay massages…… LMAO
“I’m back from lunch……everytime I got to lunch, I wish I could go home and not back to work.”
Me to V!
Dead at these user name changes!
Lmao jada yes!! I wanna call bs on her lol but im like lemmie consult the crew first.
Holly no kiddin and i told her about herself
A weekend visit, or heck even a week visit isn’t shacking. But two months…and ya swimming in deep waters. She is doing nothing but tempting herself. I don’t even know why she still claiming celibate.
“I’m about to see what the Intercontinental Spa has to offer…anyone else up?”
Im going shopping and boozing…
There’s a thief on the loose….
@Mik- That’s insane!
@Jada- Hey Doll! Who ya’ll talking about?
Dead @ 80’s name change!
Lol 80’s
One of Mik’s so called cleibate friends. She been trying to advise Mik spiritually in the area of relationships and I told her to be careful listening to her b/c she don’t sound like she got all her ducks in a row.
And ta da….looks like I was right! Experience is the best teacher!
I have nothing.
But Mik… Your friend is already gettin the side eye from me…….for real…..

Thats what i thought jada, u not suppose to be putting yourself in situations that u know will be tempting. She thinks its all good. I aint wanna say nothin cuz she will get all maf but she cant call me out n think i cant do the same
The hotel has a pool doesn’t it? I’ve been wanting to get in some water lately…..
yep holly u sure did!
Yep V! We poolsiding with drinks??
@Mik- Naw I dont agree and I remember you telling me about that advisement convo
I think I may have to get a new suit then. I done lost so much weight from being sick lately, I’m not sure if the one I got last year will even fit anymore. Blah!
She told me she tested waters before but never all the way with this guy. So i know it aint easy so y even go there?? I am gonna side eye her too lol
Jada Target has some real cute ones and even Walmart has a cute Tie Dye!
And do you REALLY think she will be staying in another room? LOL. That’s the funniest part right there.
Back at ya V.!!!!!!
@80’s- Thank ya 80’s but Imma need something a little less milky…. that Wild Irish is a stomach ache waiting to happen!
@Jada- Im with you! That broad is gonna get weak and be in that bed!
Target does have some cute swimsuits. I saw some on clearance for like 3 bucks a couple weeks ago. I wish I had got one.
I would love to do poolside…
Eck..I don’t like swimsuits though I have one no scratch that two..
OK anyways…re: shacking…
A rose by any other name is still a rose.
Get it?
OK Jada!
It’s not all good. It’s not. LOL. It may work for a while (me and J went a couple visits without action) but staying with him TWO ENTIRE MONTHS? U cannot be serious.
I had got one of those V! I was like what in the world!!
And do you REALLY think she will be staying in another room? LOL. That’s the funniest part right there. .
I wouldn’t be suprised if she’s not even celibate.
What come’s after U and before W????
@ Holly – I’m sad I didn’t get one. I wonder if they got more.
@ V
You said it sister!
70+10 = ??
@V- I would go see! Im sure they do!
HM…I’ve been alone with 2520 and no dice…well no penetration rather…
Some kisses..maybe a finger…the dip of a tongue and one inch …
I’m going too far.
@ Jac
But if you’re claiming to be celibate…none of that should prolly be going down.
“But if you’re claiming to be celibate…none of that should prolly be going down.”
I agree. absolutley NO hank in the pank!
I agree Jada and Nick…. cause you will be tempted if you doing all that
Jaci claiming celibacy????
Who woulda thunk? I had no idea! ::palin wink::
V pigs will fly if that’s happening! LOL
“I agree Jada and Nick…. cause you will be tempted if you doing all that”
Exactly… and some people get satisfied that way… lol. There is ZERO partner satisfaction in celibacy. I heard no self satisfaction either.
Nooooooooooooooooooooo I’m not celibate…and really neither is he…
Have I really never explained this?
@ Jac
I think we know you and your friend aren’t celibate. We were talking about Mik’s friend hon.
@Jada
Thank you…because I was like hell now I’m confused but yeah about Mik’s friend…
I want you to write ‘bullshyt’ on a piece of a paper then fold it and write to your celibacy and give it to her.
I want you to write ‘bullshyt’ on a piece of a paper then fold it and write to your celibacy and give it to her.
LMAO! Dang Jac yousa fool!
@Jada
You have to admit it’s a beautiful idea. I mean she’s going around perpetrating lies talmbout she celibate and they gone sleep in different rooms..and do what have phone sex?
Oh come on!
I want you to write ‘bullshyt’ on a piece of a paper then fold it and write to your celibacy and give it to her. .

I think it’s a childish arse song and in my 29th year of life I shall not condone the foolishness he speaketh!
“Hilarious!!! And I’m even weaker at the chicken part.”
I’m just saying, V. lol
“I’m always like yeah I’ll get a number two if you can’t act right…”
So why not just get rid of boyfriend #1 and get two friends? OR talk about it? lol. I thought that is what adults did!
“I think it’s a childish arse song and in my 29th year of life I shall not condone the foolishness he speaketh!”
Notith I saith the cat.
Im just disappointed men are proud of this new level of simping.
Boyfriend #2…why the hell would be doing the things for you that your man wont do? He’s your man, that’s his job, im just tryna f***
LOL @ Nick and yes I agree why not get rid of #1??
LOL @ Nick
I’m not serious about it..it’s a joke because the first time I heard it we were in the car and I was like what is this coonery.

I’m laughin at ya’ll talkin about boyfriend number 2…. I be jamming to it when it comes on the radio…

That song is a mess though….. YOU DONE DID GOOD BUT YOU COULD DO BETTER I DONE BEEN WET BUT I COULD GET WETTER COME AND MAKE IT RAIN DOWN ON ME’
[Daydreams about the girls in Chicago wearing swimsuits]
“YOU DONE DID GOOD BUT YOU COULD DO BETTER I DONE BEEN WET BUT I COULD GET WETTER COME AND MAKE IT RAIN DOWN ON ME’”
That is so nasty.. is that the song where she’s whining about can u be my daddy?
LOL @ 80’s! I witnessed that at this party I went to this weekend. HILARE some of the moves these women were doing. That’s why I stick with my drink and my two-step.
Sista a lil too old for all that foolishness.
@ Nick
Yup the very one! Yuck!
LOL @ NoMo
How you feeling today?
That is so nasty.. is that the song where she’s whining about can u be my daddy?
For some reason that line really disgusts me…I feel dirty listening to that song and I’m a man, LOL
80’s I have been seeing it to when I go out!
WTF?
I done care how wet I’ve been I’m not tryna tell nobody…Goodness…

Now Mama Jac be in here talmbout
“Shh girl shut ya lips
Do tha Helen Keller
And talk wit yo hips”
is that the song where she’s whining about can u be my daddy?
@Nick…Yep that’s the one…. The first time I heard it. It took me the longest to figure out they were saying Daddy… I thought they were saying Diddy.
80’s! I witnessed that at this party I went to this weekend. HILARE some of the moves these women were doing
@Jada….Man, I was just sittin back laughin to myself….. They just knew they was somebody in the crowd’s private dancer….. A mess…..I mean all the girls hit the dance floor on that song….
How you feeling today?
A lot better…doctor gave me some drugs and they seem to be working.
For some reason that line really disgusts me…I feel dirty listening to that song and I’m a man, LOL
@No More…. Thank you!!!!! My ex was into that wanting to be called daddy mess and I wasn’t on it… I was like I already got a daddy… He was like nah, that’s your father, I’m daddy…. I’m like yeah whatever….. Needless to say he was NOT called daddy… That disgusts me too.
Had to be some youngins. Grown folks ain’t getting excited about that shit.
Now play Before I Let You Go or Doing the Butt and see if the old heads don’t show the youngins a thing or two!
@ 80’s
Euuuwwww at the ex bf! I wish I would call a negroe that didn’t take care of me for over 20 years some daddy!
Ooooh Jada…I’m so with that…
But I will not be caught dead catching the wall…my boss was at work talking about that one day I was like you’re 3fycking4 gtfohwtbs
But on some Electric Slide and other such works I am happy…but I cannot be tootin it up…that’s how you end up sore
@ No
Glad you’re feeling better! Umm I’mma need for you to start taking better care of yourself. You’ve been sick a lot lately.
Sending positive vibes your way!
Had to be some youngins. Grown folks ain’t getting excited about that shit.
@Jada…Yes, it was the youngin’s…. Who already have kids at home looking hoodrattish (shout out to Hummy) talking bout I done been wet but I could be wetter….
I was in there like take me now Lawd!!!!!!!!
Yes, it was the youngin’s…. Who already have kids at home looking hoodrattish (shout out to Hummy) talking bout I done been wet but I could be wetter….
*scratches head*
How young? Because I’ve never been wet…ha.
Glad you’re feeling better! Umm I’mma need for you to start taking better care of yourself. You’ve been sick a lot lately.
Its not my fault! Thats why I went to the doctor cuz I’m thinking I must be really messed up, but he couldnt find anything wrong, just me having bad allergies. And I actually weigh more now than I ever have, so I guess it aint that bad. Im gonna read up on how to strengthen my immune system.
He was like nah, that’s your father, I’m daddy…. I’m like yeah whatever .
OMG – I’ve heard this before. I hate it!!! WTF is that!
@ No. – Do you take vitamins?
@ NoMo
Make sure you’re getting plenty of vitamin c dear! That usually helps! And they say allergies have been worse than usual this year.
My allergies have been OFF THE HOOK!! I’ve always had bad allergies tho.
Yeah I’m usually not that bad V. But dang if I ain’t got an extra sneeze or two in here and there. Not to mention a runny nose and sinus headaches! NOT FUN!
V & Jada: I do not take them like I should. I try and take them every morning but I always forget and miss a few days.
Do you think one of those pill sorter thingys might help?
Do you think one of those pill sorter thingys might help?
Maybe, don’t think its necessary though. I just need to put them by the computer or something, since thats basically the first place I go when I wake.
Disclaimer to Mik and 80’s – EVERY morning when I wake up I sneeze. Multiple times.
You have been warned!!!
@V
i hope jada knows that every morning when i wake up there’s a halo on my four post bed..i know it’s not time (it was probably there from last month) but i see if i can use it…for the wknd…or a one night stand…
@V Renee
“Disclaimer to Mik and 80’s – EVERY morning when I wake up I sneeze. Multiple times.

Is that from the top or the bottom?
@No More
“That is so nasty.. is that the song where she’s whining about can u be my daddy?
For some reason that line really disgusts me…I feel dirty listening to that song and I’m a man, LOL”
That song bothers me too. A girl singing “can you be my daddy” in a sensuous way is a turn off. The song makes me feel funny.
@humble
i sneezed from both one morning…it was kinda weird well afternoon i dunno i had a cold when i was like 15 clear fluid just shot out.
and can you be my daddy sounds like a little kid you know
Is that from the top or the bottom? .
I said sneeze not queef (sp??)
@V
You know Humster has issues. I’m wondering why we even pay his snarks attention?
I’ve never queefed before…how do you make that happen?
