Are you serious!?


After the incident in the nail salon in Brooklyn on Friday, I have concluded that this is the sign that should be blown up and posted on the window and main entrance of the salon..."See what had happened was" lol, I was waiting for my turn to get my eyebrows done. The place was pretty quiet; until some guy walks in. The guy was young. Appeared to be in his early to late 20's. He was well dressed..Okay not "well dressed"; let me rephrase... he had on the usual 'hood attire'. Timberland boots, overpriced jeans and a graphic hoodie with random, loud designs and words on it. I think it was Christian Audigier...Anyway so the guy comes in and I noticed that he had a box in his hand. I figured he was just selling something, like most random men who drop in the salon during business hours are. They either try to sell you bootleg DVD's and CD's or perfume. None of which were items that I was interested in purchasing, so I glanced at him for about 3 seconds before I proceeded to aimlessly flip through the four month old issue of Vogue magazine that was in my lap....But this guy was not selling anything. the box in his hand was empty. He was just begging! and do you know what he said?!...he was like: "Can anybody help me out with a dollar or some change; I'm trying to get a bag of weed."
*sigh* This guy was dead ass serious!
There is just so much that I could say about this incident, but you know what...It was really just another day, battling the slings and arrows of outrageous mothafuckas in Brooklyn.
*SMH*

one word... RECESSION!

For dudes to be beggin' for weed money these days shows we at an all time low. For weed heads to be beggin for $ for a dime. All you can do is shake your head.

I thought weed makes you hungry? Wouldn't it make sense to ask for food money and use half of that to get weed, and use the rest to appease the munchies? I'm no expert on drug use, but I feel like I DO have some common sense....

I'm all extra-late on this one, but after your comment on DO's post, I had to come over and see if you had updated your blog. lol. I swear, you get the award for "Best Comment of the Year" for what you said over there.

Carla that makes makes perfect sense! That makes COMMON sense; but the thing about common sense is that it doesn't seem to be so common. lol. All you can do is shake your head and pray 4 people...

Anyway thanks so much 4 what you said about my comment about "D.O the Hall Monitor", lol. I thought that would be cute and I am glad that it made you smile...Hopefully it did the same 4 him and whoever else read it.
