Get on your soapbox...

[CT's Finest]

...and say whatever is on your mind!!!

Ladies and Gentlemen, this is your opportunity to get on the proverbial soapbox and say what you feel. Post your rants, public service announcements, advice, etc. in here for all the brothas and sistas of SOL to see. Speak your mind and let us know what what you feel on whatever issue you choose to discuss. Let's get it crackin'...​

 

[actinanass]

give me 18 more days....then I'll piss everyone off...

 

[onyxfemme]

You sure about this CT??? This can get ugly

 

[LoneStar29]

Damnit ... and on the one day I aint got nothing to rant about

 

[CT's Finest]

It's whatever people make it. We'll just have to sit back and see what happens...

Damnit ... and on the one day I aint got nothing to rant about

What?





WOW...

















Well, tell us something good Star, this isn't all about the negative, it's for whatever is on someone's mind...

 

[onyxfemme]

All I can say I will shut it down as soon as it starts going against the rules.

So w/ that........



Do you thing folks

See, you're looking at this from a negative perspective. I don't think things will get too far out of hand at all. This is BGOL and SOL is a part of it. This board has seen some wild shit, but I feel like the brothas and sistas will conduct themselves as adults. We should be OK... Look, here are a couple of my own Soap Box rants from another thread...

And now, a Public Service Announcement from Connecticut's Finest...

*Stands on soap box...*

WOMEN WITH PRETTY FEET AND CHILDREN ARE THE ONLY PEOPLE WHO SHOULD WEAR OPEN TOED SHOES, SANDALS, AND/OR (THONG) FLIP FLOPS. IF YOU DO NOT FIT IN TO ONE OF THOSE CATEGORIES KEEP YOUR FEETS, YES I SAID FEETS, TO YOURSELF...THAT IS ALL...

*Gets off soap box, and exits thread...*

Ladies and Gentlemen, it's time once again for a Public Service Announcement from Connecticut's Finest...

*Stands on soap box...*

THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING, I REPEAT NOTHING FOR TWO GROWN ASS MEN TO DISCUSS WHILE USING THE BATHROOM. I WAS IN THE BATHROOM EARLIER WHEN 2 CAC'S CAME IN THERE HAVING A CONVERSATION. THESE MEN THEN STOOD IN FRONT OF THE URINAL OF THEIR CHOICE AND CONTINUED THE CONVERSATION. THIS MY FRIENDS, IS A VIOLATION. THE PROPER PROCEDURE IS TO PUT THE CONVERSATION ON HOLD WHILE PISSING AND PICK IT BACK UP AT THE SINKS. ANYONE WHO HAS QUESTIONS ABOUT THIS OR ANY OTHER ISSUES RELATED TO MALE BATHROOM ETIQUETTE SHOULD REFER TO THE VIDEO BELOW. AFTER WATCHING THE VIDEO, IF YOU STILL HAVE QUESTIONS ABOUT MALE BATHROOM ETIQUETTE...WATCH THE FUCKIN' VIDEO. IN FACT, WATCH IT UNTIL ALL QUESTIONS HAVE BEEN ANSWERED...THAT IS ALL...

Your right-Thanks for the clarification and for giving examples.
Now it makes sense.

Ok I have one:
Me my dude his daughter my daughter and niece-Ok 2 8 year old's and a 3 year old. We are standing in line-Hoodrats behind us talking loud calling each other bitches and about being late for their booty call-Why couldnt they stop for just a moment to recognize the 3 young girls there also? Why did they talk like that in front of them..Not Diva-Not Lady Like-No COOTH!
Afterwards my dude was like really? and I was like their momma's evidently didnt teach them any better. But thank goodness I will raise mine to have self respect and common sense....Sistas we are to beautiful for this behavior.

If you want something, work for it. Don't think that just cause you is you, or that you old, or that you this and that, it entitles you to special treatment at the risk of other peoples happiness/convenience/comfort, etc. Don't preach about how you have to learn something when it's convenient for you or you don't want to learn it at all; but then force other people to put themselves out of the way just so you can sit in the lap of luxury. That shit is annoying.

Don't come to me talking about sacrifice when you can't do it. Don't tell me you have to do what you have to do, when you can't do it. Don't come to me telling me what you can and cannot do, when you can't see that people are TRYING to make things easier on you, but yet you still want to take more.


I can't take it no more and I am refusing to continue to take it. It's unfair to those around you that try to make you happy for you to continue to be ungrateful, and it's unfair to you because you continue to act like a big ass spoiled kid. It's time to grow up and be a woman and not only take care of your shit, but to do it yourself.

Melons and Mangos pressed up against each other???

*Stands on soapbox*

From this day forward, the combination of Melons and Mangos must be captured on digital and/or video camera. After that happens they must be posted for all (especially CT's Finest) to see...

*approaches box....grabs brush...strokes hair 4 times to get wave pattern just right...grabs mic*


I hate people who come to work every fucking day and complain about how tired they are and how they don't feel like doing anything. I can understand one day or a tough week, but two and three month stretches of bitching and moaning is pathetic !! I feel like driving their ungrateful asses to the unemployment office and let them see all the people standing outside in the line that is wrapped around the building who would give anything in the world to be working a steady job (for half of what they get paid). Recognize your blessings and be thankful before that shit is taken from you and you get humbled by life...


*hops off of soapbox, grabs Lone by the arm and walks her to a secluded spot to get that stress off of her back...i'm just saying*

 

[Andeyhollawho]

I shall rant later but until then always remember...














Stay thirsty my friends...

 

[Andeyhollawho]

I take it back.

*Grabs soapbox and grips the mic like Busta Rhymes at Summerjam on a all day roid binge*

I'm not from Atl but I've been in Atl for over 10 years. I'm from a town about two hours south. I got cousins who I grew up with that were here before I ever came up here. When I got here I never heard from them. I'd try to contact them and talk but never recieved anything in return. Gave out numbers whenever I saw them and nothing. So after about 2 or 3 years of this shit I gave up on it right?

So I go to my cousin's wedding because he sent me an invite. Him AND his sister are pissed off at me talking about I never get in contact with them. Guy cousin doesn't even have my current number (been current for over 7 years) in his phone. Girl cousin has my number in his phone but says since I don't call her she don't call me.

Why in the hell do I have to continue to track down "family" to contact me? Why is it that they can't call me and say "what up"? I think it's bullshit. I keep handing out the number and keep saying call and they don't. I keep trying to be the bigger man but when is enough enough? Two way street is all I say but it's fam so I will continue down this path. In fact I'm calling they ass every weekend like "What up" just to see what happens...

*Throws mic on stage like Chris Rock having a Pookie flash back and pumps fist as I walk off*

Good points Swat, especially the part in blue. Ladies and Gents no matter what happens in our lives we should keep that part of Brotha Swat's post...

 

[CT's Finest]

*Steps on soapbox*

Cell phones should work no matter where you are. I have issues with my phone in certain places and it's fuckin' annoying. For example, the building I'm in right now has terrible reception. Instead of calling the room I'm in, one of my co-workers called my cell a little while ago to ask me a question. I had to say hello about 4-5 times and make my way out the door, down the hall, and all the way outside to hear this man. The conversation wasn't even that long, but I had to do all of that to have it... What the fuck?

*Steps off soapbox and walks away...*

I've been there before and it's a tricky thing. What irks me is when...As a matter of fact, let me get on my soapbox for a minute...


*Stands on soapbox*

Ladies, it is annoying and counter productive when you get upset with a man and don't tell him why. If I (or any man for that matter) am doing and/or saying things that bother or upset you, please let it be known. When I ask you what the problem is PLEASE don't say "Nothing CT, nothing is wrong...", when there clearly is a problem. I think I can speak for most of the fellas when I say the following. I (we) would rather you acknowledge there is an issue and say something like "I don't want to talk about it right now", than giving me (us) the "nothing is wrong". In the end, the reason I say this is because acknowledging the problem and eventually talking about it will allow us to work things out. Don't let us continue to do things that bother you without even knowing we're bothering you with those things. Let's be mature adults and work out our issues as men and women...

Lately two males from my past have been blowing up my phone. I am not your friend, I don't want to catch up, and no I don't ever wonder about us. If I dated you more than a year ago, and we either 1) abruptly stopped talking (random guy #1) or 2) did not end on good terms (ex boyfriend #1), kindly keep it moving in 2009. Do not call me, text me, or leave me voicemails, because I DO NOT WANT to talk to you. And honestly, I don't even really remember you like that. Trust me, we have nothing to discuss! Lose my number, or give it to one of your cuter, smarter, single friends. Please and thank you.

Dear Mr./Miss Garbage Collectors,
I would appreciate if you could consider keeping the garbage collection times on a regular schedule. When i put my garbage out the night before you guys come later in the afternoon. When i try to take my garbage out before leaving the house in the mornings i discover that you guys have already been through at the peek of dawn. If you all can keep up a more consistent schedule i would reward you with a nice cash bonus around the holiday season like Glen the mailman gets.
Thanks
