probably will detete this just venting

I'ma speak my mind tonight then I'm gong the fuck to bed. This ain't no nice post, so don't look for the gloomy Ian, or the sad Ian, or the happy, spiritual, inspirational Ian. He's not here. All his usual eloquence has been buried along with the rest of good common sense people dead and buried.
*Sigh*. I will try not to cuss.

The BET awards were horrible. After all the hype and anticipation, I thought it'd be this wonderful tribute, but I see we as a people dissolved back into roles of yesteryear...coonery and buffoonery. Goddamn Plantation Mentality.

Young boys pull you pants up. Girls act like the Creator gave you intelligence and not big breast, which some of you, he did even do that. Learn how to enunciate. Don't tattoo yourself up and look like you just stepped out the state prison. And for God's sake! Respect your elders. They may be long winded and tired, but if it wasn't for them, your tired ghetto asses wouldn't be where you are now.

I'm so over it. Done with Twitter. MySpace. Facebook. And perhaps the blogs. If what I saw tonight was the definition to black, then I will happily claim my other brown skinned heritages in my Native American and Cuban American ancestry.

People pissed me the fuck off too. Sure we were all commiserating about the poor performance, but if I take the time to text you or Tweet you, have the Goddamn courtesy to hit me back or at least tell me fuck off. Sure my feelings my get a little hurt, but at least I'm not sending you messages like motherfucker, looking stupid. Shit!

So this might my last blog post if I feel like this tomorrow. I'm angry. Irritated. Annoyed. With others, but with mostly for myself for a myriad of reasons. Oh well. I got a lot of answers tonight and guess it's better to know now than to keep looking and acting the fool...

Chile, I didn't expect anything less than that from BET. I'll pass on the recording, for sure. I want to see a good tribute to Michael...not buffoonery.
Also BET is not the sum of African American culture. I don't need that station to define me.
