Let me start off by saying I have no game.
I mean I see guys on TV and out that just seem to know how to say the right thing at the right times to ladies. I’m not one of those guys.
When I do manage the courage to actually talk to a lady it usually comes out as a run on sentence in a crackling teenage voice that goes a little like… “ITHINKYOURCUTECANIHAVEYOURNUMBERANDTAKEYOUSOMETIMEPLEASE!”
Yeah not the hotness at all. Sorry to any woman I ever hit with that game. Well as bad as that sounds, I have heard friends tell me lines they have used and lines that have been used on them that make my sad attempt sound like Shakespeare.
Here are some of my favorites.
Don’t be affraid to get wet.
Say B!tch. What’s your name? (followed by “F*** you then”, when she doesn’t respond)
Guh, you shaped like a coke bottle. Lemme know when u want me to pop the top and sip.
Girl you got a big booty, can I have your number? (She then turns to look at the creature that spewed the nonsense). Aw you cute too. WTF???
Oooh Girl he got gold teeth! I know you got money!
I really could gone on all day with these. But I really want to hear some of the things that have been said to you that would make you “loose your religion”.
I’ll post the best ones tomorrow.

So you are at work, and Jimmy the office “nice guy” comes over to say good morning. This is probably the hardest part of your day. Now Jimmy’s a good guy, but you’re just not attracted to him. And he usually lingers a little too long when he hugs you. Well one day Jimmy takes your kind hug as his entry into trying something a little further. Maybe he decides to tell you, “you look really nice” or “he wants to take you on a date”. Now if you are a rational creature you will tell him politely no and hopefully it doesn’t ruin the office place acquaintance. Or you could be crazy as a loon and call sexual harassment on him.
Then you have Kent. Kent is the office Brad Pitt/Hottie/Slut. Well one night you and Kent are working late and he decides he’s going to try to have his way with you. Next thing you know, the copy machine is taking full color photos of your neither region.
Now how is it that possible that two of your co-workers can approach in two different ways and get inexplicable results? One guy almost gets a face full of pepper spray while being respectful and the other gets a chance to make a fond memory at the copy machine by treating you like dirt.
Well it’s a little thing I like to call the Attraction-Harassment scale.
Note: Don’t try to take it. It’s already copyrighted.

There is basically an inverse relationship between how attracted you are to a person and how you gauge their actions towards you.
In other words… The uglier a person is to you, the less you will let them get away with.
It is derived from the Crazy-Hot scale from the show How I Met Your Mother?. I love that show. Barney Stinson for President!
You see it all the time in your daily life…
1. Regular dude sends a drink. Girl takes it and pays him no mind. Rich guy sends a bottle. Girl goes home with rich guy.
2. Girl attracted to a guy plays hard to get, and guy engages her in said game. Girl not attracted to guy “pursuing” claims he’s a bug-a-boo/stalker.
So give me an example of your Attraction-Harassment episodes. Do you think the scale is right?

Yesterday we talked about whether black people could be racist. As always, there were inconclusive findings.
Anyway I wanted to ask you guys a question…
We have a lot of organizations that cater to black culture like NSBE (National Black Society of Engineers), Black Greek Organizations, ETC. ETC…. I know at one time in society, we needed these organizations because everything else excluded us. But are they still valid? Do we just self-segregate at this point? And if so, why?
But I’m getting off track here. Those weren’t my original questions. My question is if white people had an organization that catered to whites only, like the White Society of Engineers, do they have a right to? I’m sure most people would look at that name and think, “OMG! That sounds like the engineering arm of the Ku Klux Klan!!!” But I mean seriously, if there was a group of white kids that said, “Hey there is an engineering association out there for every other race. Why can’t we have one”, would they be wrong? I’m not saying it’s an association that is truly whites only, but it caters to white culture… just like Black Greek organizations cater to black culture, but are no longer exclusively black. Sidenote: How crazy is it crazy to see a white guy outstep his bruhs?
There would be many arguments about it here. I could see both sides. One could say that any organization that doesn’t exclusive cater to a race is by default a white organization. But is that true or is it what I asked early? Do we self-segregate? Do we not go to those country clubs because they said no blacks allowed at one time and we lived with that limitation? What say you my fellow nerds?

Well your nerds have decided to do their own version of Black in America (shouts out to Soledad O’Brien)…
Our first entry basically aims to dispel some of the lies that black people have told themselves since the days we sang (yes I said sang) Negro spirituals outside the church.

1. In the words of Ced from The Barbershop, “OJ did it”. Yeah I said it. If you’ll beat a woman, you’ll kill a woman. I can’t believe this fool broke the law again after all we’ve done to stand behind him.
2. We are more racist than white people. (later on this week we will talk about whether or not black people can be racist). So let me say it like this, we sterotype more than other races. We do it a lot when it come to our own race.
3. For the young people being hood is neither cool or the norm. I don’t know about you, but for half my childhood I grew up in the hood. Then we move “out there ’round them white peoples” and trust me the hood is not better. I like a clean neighborhood without crime. And in the words of one of my favorite rapper’s 607… “you ain’t real cause you grew up po’ (poor)”.
4. Being hated on is not a good thing. I mean don’t get me wrong you are going to have haters. And it is probably a sign you are doing something good. But don’t relish in the fact you have haters. Make it your mission to better mankind so people don’t hate on each other. I listen to rappers today and they act like it’s a good thing other people want to KILL them. That is insane! I don’t want people to kill me because I’m doing well. That’s nothing to be proud of.
5. We like buffoonery. That is the only way shows like Flavor, New York, Real and Chance, Cupid and all those other love shows stay on the air. And for a special pungent brew let me throw in a dash of BET and some Georgia Peaches from the Real House wives of Atlanta.
