What This Blog Isn’t

Anyone looking to find a trite, predictable, stereotypical listing of crap black people hate will be severely disappointed by this blog. If you are one of those folks, then I apologize in advance for having to bring you to the shocking realization that, yes, black people hate more than mayonnaise and the Klan. In fact, I happen to love mayo, and my first blog even offers a backhanded-but-sincere compliment to the KKK. If you have a problem with this, you are more than welcome to email someone who cares.

This blog is also not intended to be anything original. I can already imagine the droves of (probably white) people who will lambast me for simply copying the ideas of other stuff[ethnicity]people[like|love|hate|loathe].[com|org|biz|tv] sites. So before you waste your time emailing me and depreciating my delete key, I’ll give you the answer you’re looking for (or not):

I don’t give a shit.

The point of this blog isn’t to be original. The point of this blog is to keep me from killing Michael Calmus.

To put it briefly, StuffBlackPeopleHate is one of the only outlets I have to rant and rave about the things that piss me off as a black man (other things piss me off too, but none moreso in frequency than those that relate to my blackness. The intensity-of-anger prize goes to things related to my Indian-ness, but I digress.)

If I do not get these issues off my chest, then there is a small chance that I will lash out violently at someone who just happens to be there - and one of the people who ‘happens to be there’ the most right now is Michael Calmus, because he is one of my office mates. I have two other office mates, but they sit behind me. Poor Michael Calmus, however, sits on my left, and if one day I were to lose it and decide to chuck a pair of scissors or a letter opener, then my being left handed would put him in a fairly dangerous position.

So please shut the hell up about my originality, and pray for Michael Calmus.

The next entry NEEDS to be on “Meaningless Award Ceremonies” or “Patting Ourselves on the Back”. Of course this could also be on stuffeducatedblackpeoplelike depending on the view.

BTW, great blog.

Great blog. I’ve sat here for 10 minutes reading and re-reading your posts. It’s classic material.

Even if I dont’ agree, and I agree with a lot of it, it’s still a blast. Keep on rockin’!!!

Love your razor sharp wit and well place anger. Diggin the pic in your Native American dress. I’m jealous as you were raised to know both your NA and AA heritage. Shoot I’m STILL learning about my NA heritage (Houma Nation in Houma, LA) and pissed off because I didn’t get to grow up with it. Oh well I’m working on making up for lost time.

Keep on hatin’ this blog is great!
