Seuss Deez: Hop on Pop

*alert: Daddy issues abound*

The book "Hop on Pop" is just a cute little poem with simple rhymes constructed to introduce kids to reading. It is one of the first books I remember reading. I chose to relate this book to my life for simply the title. I am jealous of the title. I wish I could have hopped on my pop. Even though pop only lived 10-15 minutes away, he might as well have lived on the moon. Actually if he lived on the moon I would have had something to brag about at Show and Tell. I'm not going to go to Show and Tell and say:

"This week is a Tell... well let me tell you about my daddy... He is the GREATEST liar I have ever met, he is so cool that he works no where and uses anyone he meets. And oh my he is consistent, he has consistently never given me a birthday or Christmas present, pretty awesome isn't it?"

***side-eye of death***


I digress. Well, not really. I know folks will want to tell me that I should forgive, and you would be absolutely correct. Does it make you feel good to be right? (lol) I just feel like I should be able to vent about his inadequacy. It's half myblog and sh*t... I also can now admit my jealousy that my little brother gets to hop on Pop, but myself and 3 older siblings did not. That's my real issue. Le sigh. Done venting. (for today anyway)

And while you're here, go ahead and vent too...

What's Beef? or Hell yes, I shoot messengers.

Fun facts about the Natural one and the Eys (ice). Ying and Yang. Naturally Alise is a nice person. She is usually ready with a smile and comforting word (in public anyway). Eysqueen is not a nice person. She has zero tolerance for bs and is kinda blunt with hers (currently competing with PBG (author of Hey You Asked & SWHHW ) for the evilest blogger on this side of the net award, but is slipping daily. Hopefully this blog will bring her back up.).

With this said, I’m about to tear a whole into some bs that passed my screen the other day. I can’t stand manipulative people. These are people who don’t have the social grace or cajonas to say and do what they really want so they have to use people. They use people to express how they really feel. They use people to do the things they wish they could do. Someone has been manipulated on the outskirts of our world, the manipulated victim thusly tried to throw salt in our universe. It was all pretty transparent to me. So all I have to say is don’t let yourself be open to manipulation.

If someone who you ain’t cool with offers you a present, you are being manipulated.
If someone passes on to you information that no good can come of, that you can’t do anything about and has all around f*cked up your day, you have been manipulated.
If you find yourself with a birdie that is constantly squawking in your ear and you don’t know where the hell it came from and why it won’t shut up, you are being manipulated.

Now, evil Eys wanted to make a lesson out of said manipulated victim as a warning to the main manipulator, but nice Alise doesn’t subscribe to that kind of debauchery, and because she is my friend and I have to live with her on this blog, I’ll oblige.

I will say this, I’m not one to back down from confrontation, if the issue is about me. If it isn’t about me, I could care the f*ck less, so don’t bring it to me. I still might catch a case just because you are being stupid though. In other words don’t bring nonsense to me. If your beef is legit, meet me outside…

And don’t bring nonsense to my peeps, we ride or die and I’m always ready to ride…

Have a happy Friday ya’ll!

*Alise adds just for good measure, since it is "The Wire" Friday, picture this as Alise & Tiha instead of Bunk & Omar (yeah Tiha is crazy like Omar, lol)*

T 2U : like an intimidation thing, but i'm not intimidated by him, just disgusted
T 2U : hmmm
T 2U : not gonna let it boggle my mind
Alise : girl my blog was about an incident yesterday
Alise : I go to the production manager for a request of vital information that i need for my account
Alise : been hounding him about it for 2 weeks now
Alise : he pushes back, over something so dumb
Alise : and easy
Alise : so i have to pull my manager into it
Alise : she asks him the same exact question verbatim
Alise : and he might as well have shucked and jived to get her the answer
Alise : I'm like why make it get to that point
Alise : he could have deaded this situation 2 weeks ago
Alise : but now i gotta be a snitch bc you are a dumb ass
Alise : and i made sure he saw the contempt and hatred in my eyes
Alise : i did like Top Model in reverse: I frowned with my eyes
T 2U : lol!

T 2U : and he was being an ass because it was you
T 2U : is he a white guy?

Alise : he do need a donut though, and a biscuit
Alise : with extra jelly
T 2U : i mean, can you really continue to be shitty to someone who gives you donuts?
T 2U : or you could snap him in 2
Alise : lol
Alise : he has the worst disposition of any man i have ever met
Alise : he acts like a whiny bitch
Alise : i think he would somehow find fault with the donuts
Alise : and create a lie world around the motives of said dounuts
Alise : he grinds my gears
Alise : oh my bad, he is the Operations Manager, so he's a kinda big shot... i guess
Alise : but he got the same boss as me
T 2U : HA!!!!!
T 2U : so what is his problem with you?
T 2U : he's not your subordinate?
Alise : so when i go get a manager: it is the VP
Alise : we are equals
Alise : we are not in the same dept if that makes sense
Alise : he is over operations, i am over this particular account
Alise : so we are supposed to work hand in hand
Alise : support each other
Alise : [insert side-eye of death]
T 2U : so i dont understand what his problem is
Alise : this convo may be my blog
Alise : minus the cracka ass cracka
T 2U: lol, hehehe leave it in
Alise: ok, lol

Alise : i am going to put in a The Wire video that has nothing to do with the blog, just bc it has a boxing scene in it
Alise: well i guess that would make it relevant though, duh...
T 2U: yes it would
T 2U: lol
