Hey Trew Lifers,
I’m going to give you all of the information rapid fire, so I want you to pay close attention. Here goes:
All that yelling and a result of the confrontation that lead to O.J. Simpson’s arrest on robbery and other charges seem to paint another picture of who website TMZ.com calls, The Juice. At first I couldn’t believe that he had the nerve to come out with that stupid ass book. Do I believe it was a perfect way for him to make some extra dollars? Of course. Do I think it was smart? Hell naw. Now he really isn’t getting any support from his fellow “black folks.”
Okay, well screw race. Let’s get to the issue at hand:
I was watching the news the other day, and I saw this guy on there with a jerri curl, some curlers thrown in his dew, with a gold tooth, FRONT AND CENTER, as well as a dress shirt, some tight ass jeans, and some tennis shoes. He sounded like this,
"I don’t be knowin’ what be goin’ on ‘round hurre. I be just thankin’ ‘bout we all us want get outda hood."
…..What the fuck was that? I thought to myself, why doesn’t America ever get a chance to see the African American universities. Tell me why America doesn’t get a chance to see the African American leaders within the business world. God knows I love me some Oprah, but we need more than that. When that woman retires, or if she died, what other women are put in the spotlight as much as her?
This got me to thinking about appearances. When you go out on that first date, you must make sure that the appearance you want to have for the REMAINDER OF YOUR DATING RELATIONHIP is there.
The thing about individuals is they’ll stop trusting you if you meet them for the first time, and say something like, “I can’t stand to see people riding dolphins. It just makes me so sorry for those mammals.” Then turn your ass around, and say, “You know what? I’d love to ride a dolphin. I’ve always wanted to, but I was just nervous I’d drown.” That person you’ve been dating is going to look at you, and think you LIE LIKE A PERSIAN RUG!
So that brings me back to the jerri curl wearing, gold tooth having, fucked up speech guy I mentioned in the beginning of this post. If our first glance of him was ghettofied hoodster, and then he walks in front of a television screen two days later, hair in a nice fade, no gold teeth, an Armani suit, and Salvatore Ferragamo shoes saying, “I’d like to apologize for my ignorance the other day. I didn’t see the crime unfold,” people would probably be like, “Um-huh. Whateva. He hasn’t changed overnight. He’s still a ghetto N-word.”
People hate to admit this, but first impressions are key to making or breaking a date, or a relationship. When I first started dating my girlfriend, she was so nice, polite, and everything nice. She did whatever she could to please me. Soon, she wanted to have her own mind, and thoughts, but I was used to her conforming to my every wish. This caused problems, because she completely remodeled herself, and her thought-process to mine, in order to impress me.
Make sure you remain you. First impressions are a BIG THING! Whether you like them or not.
It's amazing the amount of power that dick has on the world. This has always happened in through human existence. Though a guy can beat the hell out of a woman, the fact remains: Women think and feel more than men.
Dear Trew Life,

Dear Poetiq,
I have been reading your blog for a while. I hadn’t seen many E-mail Advice posts, and I was nervous about sending you an e-mail about my problems. I don’t even know if this will be published, and even if it’s not published, I hope that you can take the time out to answer my concerns. I am having trouble understanding why I’ve given up in my life. I tried to make my marriage work. My problems are not as lewd and outrageous as the other people’s problems who’ve wrote you, but I just want my husband back. One week I want to make it work, the next week I feel like giving up. He’s moved out of the house and I haven’t seen him in a week. We have been trying to get pregnant and I really want things to work out. I am 36 years old. I shouldn’t have to go through this. Please help me.
Erika J.

Dear Erika,
Thanks a lot for the kind words about Love, Relationships and Life. Yes, I still receive e-mail questions. I have not posted a lot because I wanted to wait until the new blog design was up.
Beyond the lights, glamour and money, most stars live very stressful, and sometimes depressing lives. It’s true. And you know what’s worse than stars who are stressed or depressed, stars who feel this way when they don’t really love what they are doing for a living. The same goes with you, Erika. Be real for a second here. If you ever have to question whether you want to be in the relationship or not, then you shouldn’t be there. And the fact that you are being hurt and a part of you is saying, “leave,” doesn’t make the situation any better.
I understand that you want your husband to be by your side, but you said best yourself: “One week I want to work it out, the next week I feel like giving up.” You want to know why you feel this way? It’s because deep down inside you’d rather give up on the marriage. Oh, yes. Who gets married to feel that type of pain? Yet, when you think about your age and the fact that you haven’t had a child, you choose to stay. Then other questions must facture into the equation: How many friends and family are constantly in your relationship; have you been telling lots of people that you’ll be pregnant soon; and do you expect your husband to change?
Please, write me back telling me how long these problems have been happening, how long you’ve been trying to get pregnant, and how long the two of you have been married. I look forward to hearing from you, Erika
What’s up with these dating rules? There are so many rules that come along with a damn date that it all becomes ridiculous. Remember when a date used to be fun? Of course, we’ve all had our share of bad dates. You met a guy who looks great, is tall, handsome, mature and focused… Well that’s how it appears, because this guy actually sells socks online and only makes about $5.00 a week. God forbid you live in an expensive city like New York. How the hell is this type of guy paying his rent?
Ladies, you’re not excluded. You’ll meet a guy and have on a $200 dollar purse, and less than $10 dollars to put inside of it, yet you’re screaming that a man has to make money and BLAH, BLAH, BLAH. In my experience, it’s a couple’s job- if the relationship ever gets to marriage- to work as a team. Some men still follow the barbaric, “I Work, You Clean” tradition, but that was when women didn’t have as many career choices as men did. Now that women are becoming more doctors, lawyers and POSSIBLE FUTURE PRESIDENTS, do you think I’ll spend $100 dollars on a meal each time I go out on a date and this woman is probably counting more Benjamin Franklins than I am?
Now don’t get me confused with a guy who wants to be supported by a woman. For the sake of romance, I’d pay for the first date, and maybe the second. But if thoughts pop up into our heads about having a relationship, I want her to pull out her pocket book. You want to know why? Because I need to start finding out if we’re financially compatible. If we fall on hard times, can we pull together as a team and work through it? But that’s going way further than the first date, isn’t it?
The truth of the matter is: there are rules that must be obeyed. But at the same time, you were asked to go out on a date because you are a human being, not a robot. And this is real life, not an exam- well I guess it is slightly an exam. But I’d hate for a female to give me an image of a perfect gal and it’s false. She’d tell me, a week later, “Oh, I really am a homicidal maniac. I just wanted to pass the first date exam.”
We all welcome in the New Year with a smile and a joyous attitude. We set New Year resolutions and strive for success in our future. Is the New Year a motivational tool? Yes. But it’s funny how many individuals never achieve the goals they set for the New Year. It’s amazing how many people start things in the New Year like trying to stop smoking; loose weight; be neater; or get better grades in school, but it never fully goals through.
What other ways can we motivate ourselves to get our asses up and take care of business? If you want to start your own business, if you want to find love, or if you want to loose the fat, is it safe to say, “Just do it!”? I think so. So happy New Year, and try to work harder and enjoy the new adventures you’ll experience when entering into the later half of this decade.
WARNING: If I offend, please remain entertained in the process. Thank you!
What the hell do you do, ladies, when your man asks you to take it up the butt, and the one time you decide to do it, you crap on his "magic stick" a little bit? Do you run out of the room screaming, or do you politely wipe it up, Emily Post polite style, and keep going? In the event his penis has gone completely limp, do you get offended?
Well this happened to a friend of mine. Now, I know a lot of you must be asking yourselves, how can Terry talk about Warren Buffet and Truman Capote in one blog post, then talk about girls taking it up the anus on another? This is because I damn well can and I enjoy watching people squirm with uncomfortable disgust as well as smile with uncontrollable perverted pleasure in reading about raunchy issues because they're ashamed of going to the local porn store and buying a DVD entitled Everyday People Swallowing the Jizz.
So, my friend, Alexandria's boyfriend gave her the dreaded ultimatum: Let me screw you up the ass or I'll find someone who will! Notice his choice of words:
Next thing you know, he'll be saying, "hey, babe, hold this can of beer; put on these construction boots; don't shave your legs, bend over and take it up the butt!"
To get to the point, Alexandria tried the up-the-butt thing and realized that it reminded her of taking a shit, and the pulling in and out sensation of a tampon repeatedly. She tried to hold her stomach, though her muscles were contracting like a woman ready to give birth.
She told me that while the "penal stick" was sliding out of her heavenly boo-boo bowels, she thought she was only letting his peter out. Unfortunately, she let something else out to surprise him.
Couldn't you just die laughing? Why in the hell did she tell me about this? Of course, her name has been changed to protect her identity. And though she laughed about it the next day, neither her nor her boyfriend (the butt-fucker) was laughing. Makes you say, "He got what the hell he deserved. A whole lotta' shit"
If I were a prostitute, I sometimes wonder how much I’d charge. Would I make just enough to get my daily fix of blow, crack, heroine or liquor? Would I be a classy hoe and charge upwards of $500 per night?
If I charged $500 dollars per night and I slept with six guys that night, I’ll have made $3,000 in one night! Of course, I’d need regulars and they wouldn’t come back every night spending that type of money unless they had some major dough. Well, I’d know my pooh-pooh was fantastic, so I’d make the guy come back more than once a week.
Okay, so we have $3,000 a night so far. Let’s take $1,000 off of each night the next four days, because the regulars aren’t getting into my captivating tunnel of joy. I’ve still made $1,500 dollars a night, times four nights, which gives me a total of $6,000 for those days. Add my regulars back on for Saturday and Sunday and I’ve made $6,000 dollars for those two nights. Now, if we add together all the nights, I’ve made a total of $15,000 in a week! Talk about easy money.
But when it comes to matters of the heart, I feel we can’t be promiscuous with it, just like we morally can’t be hoes with our bodies. If you think about it, multiple relationships in a real can lead to great sex, good kisses, fun times, money (if you’re a gold digger), and slight bliss, yet when your heart is laid on the line, it doesn’t seem like much fun. Just like I’m sure laying your cooch or Johnson on the line isn’t fun either.
So why can men prostitute their emotions for momentary sexual bliss? It’s because their heart’s not in from the jump. Yes, ladies you’ve been fooled. Most men go into a relationship with physical qualities analyzed and they are in hunting mode. Lots of women go into relationships with an open heart. They start off vulnerable and ready to commit. This is the reason why most men can go through relationship after relationship without being burned, while women come out on the other end with third degree burns.
If we could prostitute our hearts like we do our bodies, would it be worth the moral scarring? After a while, would your heart fall for the women or man you are emotionally screwing? And if you successfully prostitute a million dollars worth of lessons, sex, good times and money, in the end, is it valuable enough?
Some people make the dumbest decisions (myself included). I’ve never known why DUMBFUCK (a low-life cashier for McDonalds who’s working part-time and living off of his girl) would, for example, choose to screw around with Carla while his girlfriend, BEAT A BITCH DOWN is on her lunch break. Of course, this guy chooses to do this shit at his own apartment or home, knowing that BEAT A BITCH DOWN has a key.
Are these common mistakes? No, they are careless mishaps or idiotic mistakes. These all comes down to finding out the right choices to make and the right times to make them.
A lot of people don’t realize that- in regards to their goals- they have a path to follow. This path goes straight, yet there are always detours in the road (a pitchfork type of look). These detours teach you something, but they still keep your growth towards reaching the goals at the end of the road stagnant.
Yes, sometimes the disappointment and fear of failing is palpable, but we have jump in there and go at it. When I was younger I would be afraid to ask my family for food when I was starving at home. I wanted so badly to receive that slow yes instead of that fast no that I was terrified. Keep in mind, people that I’m using the word TERRIFIED. I used it to describe my exact emotion, not to over-exaggerate.
So we must ponder the consequences to the actions in which DUMBFUCK caused. Because of his ill-thought decisions, BEAT A BICTH DOWN broke up with him and married a doctor will benefits (Thank you, God. BLUE CROSS, BLUE SHIELD). If he wouldn’t have tripped up and got caught, BEAT A BITCH DOWN wouldn’t have found a guy who loves her and financially treats her well. Irony to the fullest extent, huh?
Every great writer who speaks about writing says, “Just continue typing. The first draft should be from your heart and the second draft should be from your brain.”
I think about this and say to myself, why the hell isn’t that advice working? I mean, I’ll sit and stare at my computer screen and it will take me damn near 20 minutes to write three paragraphs. I guess it’s nice that I get something done anyway, but none the less, I’m still feeling stagnated.
My book, A Bitch’s Gospel is about two women who are brought the most unconventional “angel” from God. This woman is Zinaye Aston. She is smart, gorgeous and dangerously scandalous. While running from police, drug lords and prostitutes, the two women learn the gospel of Zinaye. Of course, you must read the novel in order to find out what Zinaye’s Gospel is.
Thanksgiving is going to be here in a couple of hours and I am so excited to be asleep. I want rest for a long time and not see anyone until tomorrow when I ravish people’s kitchens, forks in hand, ready to stuff myself like the turkey on the table.
Again, I must say, “HAPPY THANKSGIVING!”
