Hey folks! Did you miss me? I bet you did(n’t). My site joined a bunch of others on the web by being blacked out all day on January 18th to petition the SOPA bill that’s being proposed in the House of Representatives, and PIPA, in the Senate. It was AWESOME seeing so many websites and [...]

You’ve done all this work. You’ve spent hours trying to make the words perfect and the paragraphs flow. You’ve done research to make sure what you’re saying is accurate. And you create an EPIC post that makes the internet go wild. You do all types of cabbage patches and fist pumps to celebrate. Then someone [...]

So, as I promised after Part 1 & 2 of the 50 Dumbest Tweets of 2011, here’s the final list of the year: 20 Dumbest Celebrity Tweets. Some celebrities have really cheapened their stardom by acting out constantly on Twitter. Every time a celebrity tweets, a publicist quits his/her job and goes to work at [...]

Last year, Miss Zindzi and I collaborated to bring you the 25 Dumbest Tweets of 2010, summarizing a year’s worth of stupidity on Twitter into 25 highlights (or lowlights, depending on how you look at it). It was so well-received that it spurred me to create DumbestTweets.com to chronicle the foolishness that takes place in [...]

In like 2007, Facebook introduced apps, and one of them was “Honesty Box.” Honesty Box allowed you to send any of your friends messages anonymously. It allowed folks to say whatever they wanted, without repercussions or anything. And folks acted accordingly. Honest Box was a vessel for bitchassness and all hell broke loose on Facebook. [...]

Someone submitted this to DumbestTweets.com last night and I laughed so hard that I probably woke up my neighbors. There is nothing funny about death but *howls like a wolf at the full moon* Whoever @KingLewie is ain’t about that life AT ALL!! I feel so bad for laughing SO HARD at this. But I [...]

High school is a microcosm of the real world. Folks think when they graduate, the dynamics they had to deal with then end. WRONG! Life is high school on a larger scale. So I thought about what would happen if the social networks where we spend our eLives were high school and this is what [...]

I logged into Facebook today and my newsfeeds is full of folks who have posted this as their status: No. Just NO. This is false as hell. And I replied under some of them with “This is false” until I got tired of it. And I really kind of want to dropkick everyone who posted [...]

I was on Facebook last night and refreshed my page. I walked away and came back and saw my newsfeeds were hella different looking. Facebook has earned yet another sternly-worded letter. Dear Facebook, STOP IT! You do this EVERY TIME! Every. single. time. You make a huge change, we complain and then get used to [...]

Facebook is feeling like the older brother who still wants to practice his guitar and go on tour with his garage band, except he’s 45 and balding. I’m not sure what this is supposed to mean but go with me here. It’s just been hella obnoxious to me lately, with their changes. And tryna keep [...]

Some of you may have heard of Evangelist Juanita Bynum. She of the scandal where her husband beat her down in the church parking lot or something wretched like that. AOL Black Voices even wrote a story called “Beat Up From the Feet Up.” And please don’t judge me for laughing at that title. That’s [...]

I’m headed to the City of Angels today, y’all! First time ever! I’m going for the Blogging While Brown Conference, which I’ve attended three years in a row, and spoke at last year. I’ll be back with recaps and whatnots when I get back to Chicago. But I shall be tweeting while there. And I [...]
