Don't Believe Your Own Press!

A couple of days ago I read this sista's blog post on her New Year resolutions and how she was giving up this dude. Nothing special about that but she went on to describe some of the things she found distasteful about the relationship and why she was ending it. I commented, "Happy New Year and it sounds like dude needs to grow up." The End.

Much to my surprise I received a personal email from dude! No, I ain't giving the dude no press! So dig, I don't remember her being specific like mentioning his name or anything, but dude wrote me saying how he and her play with each other, how this was all kinda like satire and Eff me! Eff me for commenting that you need to grow up, when the blogger is saying you an azz-ho--!

Now, I'm a grown azz Man so I don't respond to every idiot who borrows a pair from his sister and decides to talk ish but for this one I made an exception.

First, Don't believe your own press. First rule of marketing. It is your job to hype your product! It is the audience's choice if they believe your press.

Online She looks like this!

The lack of personal contact provided by the Internet has made it easy for cowards to talk ish! If we were face to face you would not 9 out of 10 times say whatever came to your mind. So some fat, pimply face virgin who can't drive or some racist alpha hotel (insert A--H--) spews venom all over the net. No accountability cause there's virtually no one to hold them responsible. Word to dude I was polite when I wrote you back.

In Reality she looks like This! Don't believe your own press! No Diss to Beetlejuice Get Yours Dude!

Rule 2. Keep the safety on your mouth. It might go off and you end up hurting yourself. Reality! You are responsible for what you say. You might end up with no toofis. That's teeth to all y'all not familiar with the term. Or worse. People can and are fired for what's been said in email. Employers check blogs and My Space pages now to check you out.

Rule 3. These are Pen names! Aliases, secret identities. Online...every chick can be a porn star!

(laughing) No, really without his cape and mask Bruce Wayne is just a mentally off balanced rich dude with a hang up about bats and delusions of grandeur. He's wearing Tights! Superdude is wearing Pajamas!

Don't let your ego write a check your azz can't cash! I've read some great, very insightful things on alot of the blogs I frequent. The Field Negro, the unfortunately now defunct UMustLoveBooks, Go Zack! That Certain Sound, The Luscious Librarian, Aunt Jemima's Revenge. Hell, check my links.

I don't agree with 99 1/2 percent of Roadhouse's views but I respect Roadhouse cause at least Terry uses his picture and will stand on his words even if they wrong!

So the point of all this is....Be Responsible! God (IAM) gave you a microphone to speak potentially to the whole wide world don't waste it with Eff you!

BE Careful! BE Mindful! BE Careful!
