Subway Nightmares in GA and NYC

Public transportation offers a positive alternative to driving because we all know #GasIsTooDamnHigh. However, just like most pros, there is a con. Sure, you save money on parking and gas, but you may be assaulted by another passenger at any given moment or day. One of the most disturbing public transit stories I witnessed was in Atlanta when a young girl, “Soulja Girl,” cussed and threatened an elderly women through a rap song.

Continuing with those type of horrific shenanigans. this week in NY a mad man strips down completely butt naked and yells racial slurs about “Niggers and Jews” while chasing them like duck,duck, goose. The transportation issues are becoming more challenging: Spend $60 per week on gas or risk having a crazy man chase you with his penis on your way home from work? I think it’s time to take it back to the ole days and start walking.

The X Fact(her): Do We Need Fashion Police?

Lubna al-Hussein is facing 40 lashes for wearing tight jeans.

On July 3, Sudanese “morality police” burst into a restaurant arresting 18 women, and al-Hussein, for wearing what they morally deemed to be inappropriate clothes. A journalist and former employee of the U.N, al-Hussein is making her case public in hopes of bring attention to the plight of women in Sudan. In preparation of her sentencing, she even sent out 500 invitations encouraging people to come see her flogging for a crime people here would laugh at.

I’m not trying to make light of the situation in Sudan or any other religious country were such drastic measures are taken to ensure that women are hidden, but where is our “Fashion Police”?

There have been times when I’ve walked down the street behind young men who have their entire ass out (usually covered thinly by some boxers) for all the world to see. They waddle like ducks in order to keep their jeans from falling down or resort to holding the waist. Let’s face it, fellas you look a hot mess. I applauded when the baggy jeans went out of style but the skinny jeans are just as bad if not worse.

Men aren’t the only ones in need of the “fashion police”. Women, some of you walk out with more flesh exposed than a butcher’s shop. There is no reason why I should be seeing your ass crack and belly roll.

Here in our community, we dress this way because the opposite sex deems it acceptable.

In Muslim countries, like al-Hussein’s, women dress covered up because men deem that the only acceptable style. There, men also deem what is acceptable for men as well. Go figure.
