I was at a kickback Friday and they started talking about things they knew nothing about…so I put up my church finger and politely walked away. Here’s why you should too.

You ever heard the term “white on white crime?” Of course not. If you’re still too sleep to realize this is just another “all lives matter” tactic to dismiss police killing us….grab a few books and have a seat.

It’s amazing how much straight people know about gay people, considering they’re never been gay. Here’s a thought: how bout you take your heterosexual ass to a corner, and have a seat.

We all have theories that the virus is man-made or they’re inflating numbers, but the moment the convo turns to someone’s auntie dying from it…that’s your cue to shut up. But you wanna ask about her immune system. Seriously?? After they beat your ass, go to the ER waiting room and have a seat.

“Must be nice to get a extra $600 a week!” Uh…what’s nice about losing your job and having to rely on the government to live? This is basically a glorified welfare; it can be taken at any time. And it was; the boost is over. Complain to one of them and I don’t even want you to have a seat; I hope they knock you into one.
