Road Rage

The 20s are all about going places. It's about getting from point A to B with some adventure along the way and as little ridiculousness as possible. Sometimes it's the destination and other times it's the journey. Either way, you learn something almost every time, but not always. Sometimes a drive is just that ... a drive. And when you mix nonsense with driving you get road rage. Let's hit the road.
Things I Hate About Driving:
1) Slowpokes - I need you all to go the speed limit at least. Like I have places to go, people to see and stuff to do. Move bish get out the way if you're going to creep along like a sluggish snail. Ain't nobody got time for that.
2) Weather & Heat - When it rains, the wind blows, or the sun shines too bright people act like they're driving capabilities magically disappear. The foolishness just flood like the damn streets. Like get a grip, shut up and drive. It's some water, turn on your wipers, brace yourself and go. Wear some sunglasses, whip out your visit and get over it - acting like it's the desert out there on the road, get out of here with that.
3) Emergency Vehicles - So fire trucks, you're almost never necessary so take several seats. Ambulances you're big for no reason and if you're coming the opposite way I'mma be chilling, like going about my business. Y'all should have a special route or underground railroad passages or something. Your noise is annoying as hell and the bright lights scare the hell out of me, acting the 5-O or something. And then there's cops, we all know you're not really going anywhere, stop cutting through traffic and abusing your power. Please get your lives and get over yourselves.
4) Ass Riders & Weavers - I follow the speed limit unlike the majority of American, I'm right on it so deal with it. Trying to car hump me will do nothing for you. If you've got a problem go around, you ass riders are the worst. I should tap my brakes and teach you a lesson. Weavers, the road is not some basket you can just thread, bob and weave through. Slow your roll, get it together and chill out. Cutting from this lane to that, it's mind boggling and dangerous as hell. Unless someone is mortally wounded or a woman is about to give birth, I can't think of reasons for you to be zooming like a supernova girl.
5) Driver's Music & Car Choice - If I'm driving, I choose the music ... end of story. Lastly, just because someone aka me is driving an expensive ass car does not give cops the right to pull you over (even if the person can afford it) without good reason. Just because a black person drives an experience car doesn't mean a thing, stop staring, close your mouths and get on with your life. Cops, if I'm not speeding or disobeying any laws, and you pull me over we all know it's racial profiling. Search my car for what? Get a warrant and see me in court.

*Lastly shout out to the people I also usually (keyword there) can't stand while driving. Old people, like you're not going anywhere and you're moving slow - GTHO. Truck drivers - you're aggressive as hell for no good reason, and you're nothing but big bullies. Take off the denim vest, and remove your trucker hat, homeboy this is not tetris - don't try and box me in. Teenagers, stop the freaking texting, snapchatting, vining - all of it while driving. It's NEVER that serious. It can ALWAYS wait. Turn down the music some to listen to the sounds of the road, keep your body parts in your car, and limit the amount of people - easily distracted much. Like damn, you all give young people a bad name with plenty of reason. Road raged.
 
The 20s are all about gearing up and getting out there. It's about ranting, raving, and letting it all hang out. Sometimes, you've just got to hop in your car, and clear your head. Go down your favorite hills, zoom around that sweet bend, and park it when it's all been said and done. Make way, road rage coming through.
 
My blog post question for the day is ... what's your biggest pet peeve about driving? The whole process kind of is annoying, I'd rather be driven than drive myself anyhow.

Fraternally Yours

Being a teenager is all about putting yourself out there. I can person say the absolute worst thing is to have someone turn you down when you've done your best to get to know them.  The truth of the matter outs not everyone is going to like you or been click with root instantly. Friendship, fraternal brotherhood or otherwise is not some magical instantaneous thing, like freaking accidentally Instagram stalking, and double tapping the heart and trying to quickly undo before anyone notices. It's definitely an ongoing learning process for everyone. But until I see you again, fraternally yours.    Fraternity has so many different meanings and contexts depending on who you ask. Well for me, my fraternity is about brotherhood, service and democracy. That means taking people at face value, knowing they're worth it, and trusting them. Service is giving back to the community, and showing compassion towards anyone you come into contact with. Democracy is justice and accountabili

Riding Solo

The 20s are all about enjoying yourself. I don't know about you but sometimes (actually most of the time) I get tired of people. The conversations, the awkwardness, the social cues, and all the drama in between get to be too much to fast. You come into contact with so many people every single day and it can be overwhelming. When you get to be alone it can be a little from life, the world, and the chaos that comes with it. You have to learn to be alone and now's as good a time as any. Hunker down, turn off your phone, and get ready to start ridin' solo.  Tell me why the majority of non-celebrity people I follow on twitter are concerned with nothing other than finding a bae. ( Bae - n. - a slang term that stands for "before anyone else" signifying some kind of relationship; Ex. Do you have a bae or are you currently #singlereadyomingle? ) I cannot scroll my twitter feed without seeing the hashtags #thiscouldbeusbutyouplayin, #cuddlebuddle or #foreveralone. It

In Living Color

The 20s are all about speaking up and speaking out about the things that matter most to you. One thing I cannot stand is when people think their cause is the single most important ordeal facing the world (case in point environmentalism - call me when all that Day After Tomorrow  stuff does  down). It's disrespectful, unnecessary and just plain rude to insinuate (whether knowingly or unwittingly) that what you're standing up for is more dire or pressing than anyone else's ideals (aka every group at my school). It's okay to be passionate but when passion puts down someone else's zeal, that's when we have a problem. Get ready for a week of super serious posts - it's that time of the summer again. I'm back, loud, proud, and in living color.  *Let me preclude this post by emphasizing how personal, explicit, and downright painful most of these experiences are to remember let alone write about. It's all about self awareness, look to criticize within b
