Tuesday Vent Day
Hey RED REPORTERS. As promised, this is Tuesday Vent day. Vent Day is here for all of us to unleash whatever is on our chest; good, bad, funny, or sad. Hopefully this will give us a chance to learn more about each other....or be a forum for some great laughs. Either or, I'm excited!
So I'll start. I didn't know what to vent about. So I dusted off my old poetry book from college and flipped through the pages. The poem stuck out to me the most so I decided to post it....here goes nothing lol.
Frankie asked Why do fool fall in love?
Especially when we all know The Water Runs Dry like Boyz II Men.
You claim you're Not Gon' Cry like Mary,
but as soon as he begs like Keith Sweat y'all Knockin' Boots all over H-Town.
You believe in Faith and tell him I Love You,
but his only response is What's Love Got To Do With It? Like his name is Tina Turner.
You sit back and contemplate how you possibly fell Dangerously In Love with this Soldier who promised to Cater 2 U.
But all he did was take you to the Heartbreak Hotel.
Fantasia says Free Yourself because you don't need No More Drama,
but as soon as you think it's smooth sailing, here comes Lauryn Hill with The Ex-Factor.
Shit! Now ain't that just Another Sad Love Song?
I was involved in a bad relationship when I wrote this. But now I embrace that past situation because it made me smarter and help me figure out who I am, and what I want from others. I figure, how would I ever know what I want, if I didn't experience what I didn't want? Does that make sense?
Anyway, now it's your turn to vent. AND DON'T MAKE ME THE ONLY ONE SPILLING THE BEANS!! lol

How perfect that this forum exists the day after my Raiders got their asses handed to them in a crumpled paper bag from the Dollar store... *SEOD to A. Red* LOL - just kidding girl.. I got a lot to vent about this morning.. score ended 41-14... am I dyslexic or is that a major ass whooping?? At home.. on our field?? On a Monday night.. where EVERY football fan is watching.. LAWD WHY??? I've got tears of disgust and embarrasment in my eyes. Now I've got to listen to some old YT coworker (who ain't never watched a full game of football in her life) tell me how my Raiders suck.. how bout you find the lock for your lip before I unlock my size 10 in your ass?? Damn my coworkers gonna make me violent and go postal in this summamabish TODAY!! I'm about ready to throw my "Football for Dummies" book at her and the entire Raiders team... ARGHHH!!!
*thanks for letting me vent...*
Okay...so unfortunately for me last week I had an accident that fucked up my pinky toe (don't u dare laugh, I see u) and I was limpn hard as hell for about a week. Taking this into consideration, I gave myself a little extra time to get to the train station in the morning. So today I left out a few minutes early only to get caught by a slow ass industrial train that lasted exactly 12 minutes and 35 seconds. Needless to say the extra minutes I gave myself were useless. So I am driving like a bat out of hell changing lane to lane trying to make the train and of course people want to cruise like they aint got nowhere to be. So I finally make it to the train station, jump out the car and power limp walk barely making the train but I make it out of breathe and everything, but that's okay cuz I made it. So u know me, I'm smiling on the inside (cuz I made the train) walking down the aisle trying to find a seat and this fuckn amazon bitch steps on my bad toe...motherfuck...my goddamn toe felt like it swelled 10 times the size its suppose to be and the shit was pulsating. I felt like dude on I'm Gon Get U Sucka. Now I'm sitting here at my desk with a ice pack around my foot wrapped in paper towels looking like a damn fool.
*screams internally*
not much to say except i need to find a girlfriend :-(
my neverending story....
Sorry to hear that Wifee. I pray NO ONE says a thing smart to you today. I got $5 on your bail if they do.
Lil Sis, um I know your in pain but I still LMAO. The visual I'm Gon Get You Suck alone killed me.
I'm sorry Shep. I'm having the same prob. The pickings are slim out here. I didn't think being in a recession went for our economy AND our love lives. Anyway, I always pictured you married for some reason. lol I don't know why...
"Anyway, I always pictured you married for some reason. lol I don't know why..."
:-/
i dont know why either, SMMFH
LOL, it was a compliment. You seem nice and attentive...quiet but still have a sense of humor, mixed in with just enough asshole. I just thought you'd be scooped up by now. So stop shaking your head at me!
Lawd get that bail ready!! Why the bosses boss just come by my cubicle and say.. "Wow your Raiders were HORRIBLE last night.. what happened?"
MOFO what you mean what happened?? We lost BIATCH! (had to throw some Too Short on that last syllable)Do you need a recap? They scored.. and scored.. and scored.. and scored.. and we DIDN'T!!!
*passes offering plate around room for more bail money*
"LOL, it was a compliment. You seem nice and attentive...quiet but still have a sense of humor, mixed in with just enough asshole. I just thought you'd be scooped up by now. So stop shaking your head at me!"
*prints and frames*
that was a nice thing to say B-)
hey y'all..Thankfully I don't have to vent today but Lil Sis, I was rollin at your play by play of your toe trials! Jokes aside, I hope it heals soon!
I am sick and tired of the political games and corruption in Government. They don`t give a damn about the people. All they care about is greed and keepin` the elitists in their prestigious status.
The war on terror is nothing more than a smoke screen to veil global American imperialism. Civilians being murdered all for the sake of the greed of the rich. People being bamboozled that 9/11 was the work of terrorists.
Well it was indeed the work of terrorists, but American terrorists because it was an inside job. These devils in high places are nothing more than the personification of Satan in the flesh.
They will indeed sacrifice their own people to meet an objective. So what if a couple of thousand people are killed in the process? We`ll just blame it on Muslims/Muslim country.
It will thereby give us an excuse to illegally invade/occupy a foreign country. All this nonsense about American patriotism is a bunch of bullshit.
Why should I be patriotic when it comes to a war that should never have been waged in the first place? A war waged off the false premises that Iraq possessed weapons of mass destruction.
The Government knew damn well this was a lie, but yet proceeded to carry out their "diabolical" plan. I have no respect for a Government that will lie and murder to promote a foreign policy that is clearly unjust.
I have no respect for a Government that will unconditionally support Israel. The same Israel that is illegally occupying the homeland of The Palestinians. The same Israel that is nothing more than a clone of The United States.
When will we all wake up and see The American Government for what it really is? And what it really is is the synogogue of Satan. It has shed much blood around the world and is the most corrupt nation on the face of the earth.
Do I sound anti-American? No my friend, I am just anti-injustice, anti-corruption. If that makes me anti-American then I`m guilty as charged...
