20 questions

(some of them rhetorical...)

1) why do radio stations bleep out words like "panties," but not words like "faggot"?

2) why do most white people in this country think that issues of race aren't their concern?

3) was anyone else moved to tears by jason's recent discussion of race ?

4) am i the only person disturbed by the previews for anna nicole smith's upcoming new show ?

5) why do (many) lesbians who frequent strip clubs think that those who don't are prudes?

6) why does ashanti look like a monchichi ? (and why does everyone think she's so cute?)

7) is being someone's "chick" her biggest aspiration?

8) why does ja rule look like jiminy cricket ?

9) why did i not know about the 2000 biopic, hendrix (starring wood harris , aka avon barksdale of the wire), until a month ago?

10) what is it about the wire's sonja sohn that's so sexy?

11) am i the only person on the planet who doesn't like sex in the city?

12) why can't r. kelly just take responsibility for his actions, instead of whining about needing a hug?

13) why do radio stations play crap like that ad nauseum, but refuse to play songs by meshell (no matter how often i request them)?

14) could an entity possibly be more hypocritical than the catholic church?

15) how can anyone here maintain that "sexism is dead," when this 132-year-old institution just hired its first female president ?

16) how long will the male vice presidents last? *grin*

17) sweet potato sushi ...who would've thought?

18) why are so many people scared of clowns ?

19) will it ever cool off?

20) will i ever shut up? 2:16 PM
