Truths and Consequences: Scandal Episode 212 Recap
It was worth the wait. Two weeks ago when Scandal left off after the flashback of Olivia giving the League of Goons her tearful and hesitant approval of the election rigging, I was feeling all the feelings. Especially since Senator Pudding Pop had just proposed and President Ghost had just asked Mellie for a divorce. [...]
Throwback Thursday: That Time When Marques Houston Wore Rubber
I’m not really sure what people think about when they made some terrible fashion decisions like they do. I mean, I get it. Sometimes, we don’t know better. Like the fact that I wore burnt braids that came down in an angle down my chin for half of the 90s. I spent too much time [...]
10,000 Fans, 10 Companies, 10 Giveaways: My LuvPrah Moment
On Sunday, one of the folks on my FB fan page (hey Eleanor, girl) mentioned that I was almost at 10,000 fans. I was about 150 people short, and she wondered what I’d do to celebrate when I hit that mark. So someone else (hey Day Mo) suggested I do a giveaway. And me being [...]
Stallion Booty, Crazy Kenya: RHOA Episode 13 Recap
I didn’t get a chance to watch last week’s Real Housewives of Atlanta episode until yesterday since I was in DC running the streets for Inauguration weekend. For those who realized my site was recap-deficient last week, that’s what happened. But I caught up to the haps, and it seems that Kenya is feeling butthurt [...]
My Comprehensive Recap of the SAG Awards
I didn’t watch it because I knew it’d be boring. And not enough of my Twitter peeps were watching it for the tweets to entertain me. Also, Real Housewives of Atlanta was on. So NAWL. The end. *curtsies* You’re welcome. Did you watch it? How’d it go?
5 Reasons Why No One is Here for Aunt Viv 2.0 From Fresh Prince
Fresh Prince of Bel-Air is one of those shows that immediately makes me think of my childhood. I’ve watched every single episode, and I can recite some of the lines. Plus, I’ve memorized Will Smith’s drum juke, surely keeping other types of knowledge out my brain. It’s fine. It’s allowed. My (and a lot of [...]
4 Reasons Why 2 Weeks is Too Long for Scandal to be Gone
The next episode of Scandal isn’t for another week. And the last one was last week. And it’s been too long (7 days) since I watched it last. Because I’m addicted to it in the worst way. So here I am with a bad excuse for writing about Scandal, talmbout why it shouldn’t leave us [...]
Overheard at the Airport: Hoodrat Chronicles
When I was headed back from DC the other day, I managed to get to the airport a full hour before my flight. Y’all know DAMB well that never happens. I expected a gift or something because I’m usually running through security with 10 minutes left before my flight leaves. Anyway, I got on my [...]
My Entire Opinion on Bey’s Inauguration Lip-sync Thing
Beyoncé lip-synched AND sang live at the Inauguration. This isn’t rare when folks have to sing in the cold outside. The bottom line is what we heard came out her mouth. Why are folks tripping? Get your lives. Can we stop talking about this now? Please? Thank you. The end. P.S. I’m not a stan. [...]
Michelle Obama’s Side-Eye to John Boehner is Everything
While I was running the streets yesterday after Inauguration stuff, folks emailed me, tweeted me, and Facebooked me the same link over and over again. It was to this Gawker post with Michelle Obama’s reaction to John Boehner trying to talk to her during the lunch. I. GAHTDAMB. LIVE. Madame FLOTUS! You better give that [...]
My President is Black, Michelle’s Coat is Blue: 5 Thoughts on the Inauguration
I was supposed to have published this post yesterday but I was running the streets all day so I wasn’t able. I did write one post though, about what the election meant to me. Did you read that? Aight go read it and come back. Anywho, here are some of the thoughts I took away [...]
What This Election and Today’s Inauguration Meant to Me
In 2008 when President Barack Obama was elected, it was with this air of inspiration. It felt like a brand new day. It was history. Untainted history. People were rooting for him and he was the underdog who needed to be cheered on. In 2012 as he went up for re-election, the atmosphere was much [...]
A Criminal, A Whore, An Idiot and a Liar: Scandal Episode 211 Recap
Scandal went off air over 30 minutes ago and I’m sitting on this couch wondering what my life is about. I mean GAHTDAMB. This episode didn’t murk my spirit in the last 5 minutes like normal. Instead, the entire episode just slayed me completely. Every scene was as important as the last and we found [...]
