'So how much are we going to put into the card?'
"Meredith! That's your friend. Which makes her my friend too. She's turning 70. Which means at the very least, 70 dollars is appropriate!"
'But, I mean, shit! That's like close tah four hours of ah Black man's work slave time.'
"Oh, no you didn't! Listen Meredith! I don't disagree with you a lot. But in this instance, you are wrong! Are you telling me as much as that woman, your friend, turning 70 years young means to you, her life is not worth at the very minimum of, one damn dollar a year she's spent in this life? Is that what you are telling me?! And her husband is The Chief of Police in their town? Who invited us to her surprise birthday party!? She's not even worth a dollar per year she's spent in this life?! Is that what you're telling me?"
(Crickets)
She hurt thah fuck out of me! But righteoUSly so. All I did was put three twenties and ah ten in ah card which she bought! We both signed. And off tah thah shindig US went. But an old niggah got kicked in thah nuts hard! And my Wife does it better than anyone else! my old Black ass wrinkly, hairy and smelly nuts are still achin and shit! And...righteoUSly so!
(Peace! More to come...)
