TRUTH is THERE is NO TRUTH!!!

As you all see my blog is titled “Scrooge’s Truth”! What does this indicate? It indicates that what’s true to me may in fact not be true to you. Truth is a matter of self interpretation! This is what as Humans we fail to realize.

For instance, when Obama held his press conference to talk about the potential for radiation to hit the west coast; what truths did you hear in his speech? Did you hear him say that radiation would not reach the coast? Did you hear him say harmful levels of radiation would not reach the coast? I heard the President say radiation will hit America. Others heard the opposite. Others heard the biggest crock of bullshit the media could ever attempt to cover up. So you see how many different ways the truth can be interpreted. Who in the HELL determines what is true to you besides you?

We crave and ask for the truth on a consistent basis. It’s what we believe will give us the satisfaction to make other decisions in our lives. When in fact it is what leaves everything up for discussion and complicates our lives. I can tell you the exact words you want to hear and that is all you will believe, but in those words there may not be a truth that is true to me; thus how is it true? The real truth lies within ourselves and we are afraid to address issues that way so we inherently look for flaws in the truths of others to make our decisions seem far more sound and to maintain personal comfort levels. 

Realistically no one wants or knows what is true! We all will forever form our own interpretations of what an individual tells us. Therefore what will happen is the truth will never seem as wholehearted as it was intended to be. It’s the flaw of MAN that we challenge every detail expressed in words. If you ever look beyond those words into the heart of a person you may find what you are in search of. We attempt to argue these ideals out as being distinct traits of men or women and in that we will never find common ground. We could ask @tonygaskins for the truth because I know he knows! This is the same individual who tweets from separate sides of the aisle. It’s just good public appeal to satisfy all parties people. Don’t fall for the marketing that goes along with growing your individual brand. 

There are factors that can contribute to the Truth that you develop within you. They are relationships with individuals, social aspects, PRIDE, and morals. These factors assist in generating your TRUTH. So when we go to accuse one of lying, let’s not forget to look at ourselves and what we are doing to assist in creating a LIE/TRUTH because they essentially are one in the same!

Truth is also not going to be discovered in hiding behind fallacies that we create for ourselves to hide the feelings that we really hold within because of public disdain. I’m a firm believer that TRUTH is an individualistic ideal! How could it not be? Many of you follow my tweets and some you agree with, others you hate, and some are literally just jokes (I’m a bit of an asshole). What do you think of this TRUTH? I’m very curious to hear!

This is the least controversial I might have ever been!

The Black Man's PLIGHT

I should be working, but today some things have come to my attention and been on My MIND!!! Ever since the Black Men/Women were taken from our natural habitat we have been broken to disregard one another as the FUEL to EACH OTHERS FIRE! We downplay the significance that we play in the others success and happiness.

Oh wait someone just stopped and said Happiness is an individualistic state of mind! Well my Good Sir you are WRONG. See Happiness in that feeling you get from providing someone not with just a material item, but with that Love and Passion, and Sincerity that is becoming so rare in our Country and most notably our Black Families. We are becoming more entrenched in the Willie Lynch Syndrome than what is naturally inbred in us as Black Man and Woman. We are Lovers, Providers, Intellectuals, Builders, Caregivers, etc...

With All these innate traits our Men and Women cannot see eye to eye. Well I'm a Black Man so women if you read this and get offended then you my Lady are part of the PROBLEM. Men are simple creatures. We wanna Eat, Sleep, Watch Sports, Have Sex, and yeah that's about it. Where we run into our problems these days is when  non-issues turn into issues.

Woman: you went out with your boys last night Man: well its the playoffs Woman: so Man: goes and suffers the consequences later. What is wrong with this picture???

#1 Nagging: is unacceptable! I feel if there is food on the table and a roof over your head then let this peacock fly *Mark Wahlberg Reference* Ladies this is a minor offense. The real underlying issue here is the lack of social life of the female counter-part. Just because you're a couple doesn't mean you need to be attached at the hip. Odds are if you are that damn close you will see a Divorce Judge sooner than later. Healthy relationships need AIR.

#2 TRUST: if you don't want to trust a MAN don't be in a relationship. You can force a MAN to solidify your adultery claims by always accusing him of shit he may not be guilty of.As I have said a Mans mind is simple! Your constant barrage of blame circulates in his mind and then its the well might as well do it SHIT Thought! OK! This thought process is WRONG, but come the fuck on! If a MO********** providing and trying and there is still a lack of trust then what else can they prove. Save that old age shit about trust being earned! Well hell Earn YOUR dumb ass into an URN BASIC BISH! It's 2010 shits different as you women surely know ( U get to VOTE)!



#3 Marriage:  Where we differ on marriage is simple. YOu all don't want to admit its the materialistic thoughts the linger when it comes to marriage. This in the exact reason you would FOOLISHLY turn down the MAN who LOVES you Wholeheartedly becasue he proposes w/o a Engagement ring! Spare me that circle that can't be broken BULLSHIT and the SYMBOLIC CRAP TOO! Men avoid it because YOU ASK ABOUT IT, WE ARE SOMEWHAT SCARED OF SIGNING AWAY OUR PAYCHECKS (lol), and because ITS A SCARY SITUATION ALBEIT JOYOUS. Its takes us longer to get wrapped up in this premise and along the way we may in fact lose that person whom was truly the one, BUT that's life!


Often time we as HUMANS forget that that is what we exactly are. Irregardless of the false visions of perfection the grass isn't always greener on the other side! Life is a challenge so what makes MAN OR WOMAN perfect at predicting whats RIGHT or WRONG for our genders to experience. Everyone is entitled to paint that BRICK ROAD no matter if its BLACK OR YELLOW but be ready to follow that path because the OUTCOME may not be The LAND OF FRUIT AND HONEY!

Twitter Taught U!!!

Every time I come on Twitter you're on Twitter filling up my timeline! Well guess what Twitter is not the GUIDELINES YOU NEED TO LIVE YOUR LIFE BY!!!! I'm tired of everyone complaining about what goes on on asocial sites and how it impacts their lives yada, yada, fuckin yada! It's a social site and people have free speech. they can say whatever they please and that should be the end of it!

You all know you have gotten that DM or BBM or for non-hip peeps TEXTS lmao #TeamBlackberry. You all feel me though? You know the message " who you talkin about?", "What happened", "Why you going so hard?"! All those types of messages.

Understand a few things. First, everything we say on these sites isn't necessarily TRUE depending on the situation.  For me its highly likely it is, lol; but be realistic. Do you think I'm really gonna fight a kid? or some of the other outlandish things you read about on Twitter? These things don't necessarily happen the way they are said.

For some of us Twitter is an entertainment tool. We use it to vent, laugh, and socialize. Why are you using it as a reference book for your life? Why should anyone ever hear you say anything about what they posted on twitter and how it made you feel? That's very petty and childish! If you are truly someone to a person social media is not where they need to nor should be proving that to you!

Stop being guided by the BLIND and use your own common sense (if you have any) to make logical decisions about sensible things that are much bigger than a website. Hell some of you act like you know so much and we know at the end of the day you were on the SHORT BUS! Yeah U! There's no cure for RETARDATION so NO you haven't gotten smarter since we were younger!

Then a note to my Twitter Stalkers, Hoes, Snitches get a life! I mean true a person shouldn't be listening to you saying oh look at Bobby Joes tweet that's about Amanda, but damn are you really that bored with your inferior life that you need to keep up shit? You are thirty with five kids by three different guys and jobless; certainly you have more to worry about Gossip Girl/Guys!

Lets attempt to keep the web exactly where it belongs, in CYBERSPACE!

Chivalry: Dead or Alive?

Chivalry is a word derived from French word "chevalerie", which itself is derived from a couple of words. In modern times Chivalry refers to the act of courteous behavior, primarily towards a woman. So many movies portray how they think women should be treated. often times the courtesy shown rarely corresponds to what actually occurs in real life. I mean i recall seeing once in a movie where a guy threw his blazer over a puddle and in the words of Cris Carter and Keyshawn Johnson "Come on Man"! Ladies this isn't REALITY.

There are other occasions where chivalrous behavior is reality such as: opening a door for women, pulling her chair out, going to the door to retrieve her, bringing her flowers on a first date, etc... these aforementioned things can in fact happen. I think often times what is and should be a reality is becoming more and more what shaped by what a woman sees another man do for their lady. Women play this role as if they understand that every guy is different, but realistically crave to have what they see other women receive. The Real question is: Why aren't guys chivalrous towards certain women?

I CAN DO IT MYSELF!

LIL WEBBIE said it best: INDEPENDENT do you know what that means or for the ladies Destiny's Child: Bills, Bills, Bills and Independent Women. All these songs are indicative of why the chivalry you long for is eroding ( that means disappearing, lol). The notion that you all are independent and equal to men ruined your chivalry. Man was built on the notion that he is the provider and protector and women began to takeover these roles. I know women are about to go off talking about how men should step up and take more responsibility, but will you allow them to? I know how many single parent homes are ran by women. Aren't some of these homes that way by choice? I've seen it for myself where the woman keeps the male away, haven't you as well?

Chivalry was a part of being a man. The part where the woman was the Queen and not the King! Can we blame our men as well? Yes! Men should stand up and be Men. Seriously, how long and often can you take having to do more than expected and being brow-beaten before you give up ladies? Chivalry is bigger than just Men its something that women of the past earned for treating their men as king; just as the men treated them like queens!

Imagine me picking you up for a date, Ha; first of all you have to make it to that point. You cannot expect a  guy to meet you in a club after you've worked his joint to the point of erection to seriously take you as a woman. Especially if after he rings you he doesn't ask you out yet to come to your crib and you all can drink and chill. Whatever chivalry he has has went into the Coconut Ciroc bottle. Who's fault is this the males or the females. Most females will say the male, but they know the truth. The second you invited the guy to your crib or came to his crib to chill; however it went he's lost his chivalry and this is the Woman's fault. Guys are naturally instinctive and routinely react to signs that a woman gives off.

When you allow your guy friend to entertain the idea that his getting that "Pussy" before you allow him to entertain the fact that you are a REAL WOMAN, what do you think you're gonna get in return???

Do I think chivalry is dead? No,  I do not. I think times change. Just as Women were wanting so many changes to benefit themselves. I think guys want to receive some of those behaviors that they consider to be chivalrous! The good book said it best in Matthew 7:12 "Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets", or as you most notably say do unto others as you would have them do unto you. Women have to get back to their natural element of providing and enabling a Man to be a Man before they can complain about how he's not treating them like a Woman! What's you opinion?

What's really Real

Two interesting things happened in the past couple of days pertaining to hair and just overall beauty. This AM I tweeted with one of the Moores (Vaughn s/o) and we were talking about sew-ins. Sunday I was shown a message that made this tweet session even more interesting. It said something like if you're beautiful why wear the fake hair, eyelashes, nails, etc...  Interesting, Right?????

This is a very valid point. So many of our women call out others on what they are doing with their appearance, but is their criticism warranted? If you are as beautiful as you say you are why all the accessories that hide the TRUE YOU??? I swear if I ever engage a young lady that has on a booty pop Im going to lose my mind! This is outright TRICKERY, LMAO! I mean guys can't hide who they are, or can they???

I'm the type that like my women as they naturally are! I don't want make-up on my Polo ( do you know how much them shits cost, lol?). If i run my hands through your hair I don't want your hair to leave your head with my hand, nor do I want to be scratched by the cheap lacefront.We all saw that episode of Fresh Prince where Will was trapped in the attic with his date aka Tisha Campbell! Ol' Girl took everything off and I'm not talking about her clothes! To me that's like dating two different women.

Then on the same accord a woman has all these demands for what her guy is suppose to do and be like. Be a gentleman! Chick to which one of you? Please don't lie to me! Well I didn't I lied to the woman with the 10 inch hair not a bald fade!

My point is this how can you ask for so much and for someone to be TRUE to YOU when you aren't even TRUE to YOURSELF? Who are you REALLY?

REALITY TV

So I was having a discussion about a comment I mad about a reality show. Myself I rarely frequent those dating shows I'm more of a RW/RR challenge type or Top Chef (I Love Food). However these new age reality shows are seemingly stirring up a vast amount of interest from unfamiliar areas. I stumbled upon an individual watching the TO Show. I pondered why a person with no sports interest would watch a show about a athlete??? They said the show wasn't about sports which is TRUE to a certain extent. I said, it actually pertains to sports due to the person being an Athlete!  I mean, if TO was replaced with ME would you watch his show? They became enraged that i could not see their point. The only reason the show has relevance is because TO is an athlete, right?

I am just curious as to why people watch all these reality shows i.e The Hills, The City, TO Show, ALL those crappy wedding shows? Do they make you feel a certain way?

Hell! I feel depressed and Dumber whenever I see someone I know watching! I can't stand the sound of some White Girl arguing with her friend over who has the same dress as them, or Justin Bobby had a attitude and Audrina doesn't know what to do. The chick from the City broke her heel on her Christian Louboutins! How appealing is that? Watching those terribly hard at work prissy grown kids argue about items that cost more than your weekly pay. I was told to never fantasize about the lives of others! To create my own reality! So why is it that so many of us are stuck trying to create a reality that is owned by someone else?

On the other hand, it could just be for entertainment purposes (my neutral point of view HA)! I doubt that watching a bunch on rambling TRAMPS like the Kardashians could ever be entertaining to me, but hey you are what you watch, right? They say that television influences our youth so does it not influence our adults?

We complain about what the youth are watching, but we are not telling them that these characters are not individuals to use as role models. I just wonder how you can realistically discuss these characters to children and tell them not to want to be that way. Hey Montana Fishburne, don't make a sex-tape and gain all the notoriety in the World for no reason and become rich for it.

Now we have a whole new breed of stupidity developing because of reality TV aka 50 Tyson! This idiot had to have watched Flavor Flav and said if this ugly mofo can do it I can too. I guess we are hosting our own minstrel shows now! I hope they stop and you all LIVE YOUR LIVES. Hide your kids, hide your wife! SMDH
