"Anti-Black"?

One problem I have with certain people is when they wrongfully use the term, "Anti-Black."   As a black man, I'm not against blacks. I go for the side of which I believe is right as should everyone. I am totally against riots, unnecessary behavior, and the killing of anyone no matter the race.   Recently, there has been chaos within a particular college. I said their behavior was completely unacceptable. They cornered faculty members, threatened teachers, ganged up on school officials. The thing that triggered all of this was an email. Some black guy sent an email to create an event that was made to stop whites from coming to college on a particular day. This was sent to a white guy and he said he will not be participating because he views it as an act of oppression. He was branded racist and all this stuff started happening,   I said their behavior was unacceptable. I was branded, by my own father, as Anti-Black. Apparently, I was against my race because I was against blacks who ran around a college terrorizing teachers and faculty members. Apparently, I don't being black anymore and I'm proud of it all because I say its unacceptable.   I've been called Anti-Black, White-lover, and Cracker-lover. I don't like whites who hate blacks just like how I don't like blacks that hate whites. I don't side with blacks just because they are black. I side with who is right no matter the color. If a bunch of blacks rioted and killed 6 people, I'm against it. If a bunch of whites rioted and killed 6 people, I'm STILL against it. I don't differentiate my judgment based on skin color. If I am Anti-Black for saying the black rioters' behavior was unacceptable, then so be it (The blacks in the college didn't riot; I was just using riots as an example).   So for anyone who is like me, and not just Anti-Black but anything else that has a similar effect, stand for what YOU believe in because, at the end of the day, you have to be happy with who you have become. If you are the only person on Earth that believes what you believe, then I advise you believe in it even if it means you are standing alone. Any great idea, any original idea, and especially any unpopular ideas need to backed up by you.

The title "Lord" that is in my name

The title "Lord" that is in my name; you are not obligated to call me that. Lord is there because of the lore of Vectra himself. I don't, in any types of seriousness, would call myself Lord. Meaning, I will always say it in a joking matter, so if you dislike it, I'm sorry. What I don't like it being falsely accused of being arrogant.   And I find it very funny that, because I don't like being called arrogant, I'm arrogant. So, what you are basically saying is I can't defend myself.   PM me ONE TIME where someone didn't call me Lord and I got mad? Lemme help you out, you won't find one.   I will respect people as I always have. What I am NOT going to allow is for you to disrespect me because if I RESPECT YOU, I am expecting the same back. If you're going to totally disrespect me and disregard my feelings because of the word, Lord, then apparently we weren't friends to begin with because Lord been in my name for years and never had I taken it seriously, so I don't see why you are.

"All men/women are the same"?

Talking about this really breaks my heart sometimes. It's absolutely devastating to see someone say 'All men/women are the same." That's like saying all Muslims are terrorist. I want 3 kids when i get older and I NEVER want them too feel that way. That is a form of sexism no matter how you put it. I don't care for the reasoning behind it.   People hate Muslims because they are assumed terrorists but is it right? Of course it's not but neither is "All men/women are the same." It truly makes me sad because it's hatred and/or pre-judgement. You looking for roses but steady picking dandelions and then you get mad when the dandelion doesn't magically become a rose.   In my entire life, I got rejected by 15 women and never heard "yes." I could just as easily say "All woman are snobs." When have you ever heard me say "All women are snobs."? I'll wait............ Oh yeah, because I never did. It makes you unattractive so when the right guys comes, he's going to walk away.   If I said "All women are snobs." I would become a bitter old man preaching to other lonely guys and now they are believing what I say is true. That is how racism, sexism, and ageism is born. How about we preach about understanding, love, and forgiveness so that we can change the world. It takes one person to start it, but it take multiple people to keep it going.   "If he truly loves me, he'll deal with me." EVERYONE has a limit no matter the motivation. At some point, they'll break down and give up. Yes, it is her/his job to show you different BUT it's also your job to give them a chance to show you different.   What if you were on the receiving end of it? What if a perfect guy was looking at you but he stopped looking at you once you said "All guys are x." He's going to say "She's going to definitely say no so I'm not going to try to date her." Life isn't about the amount of breathes you take, it's about the amount of moments that takes your breathe away.

Life as an only child.

I obviously can't speak for all only children. My life as an only child is very lonely. I mean, I can get whatever I want but the loneliness triumphs the ability to get whatever you want. When you have siblings, yeah, they're irritating, but you're never alone. You always have someone to talk to and hang out with. Even if they're way younger than you, you can still build a friendship with them.   They're always there. My mom has some strict rules which makes it hard for me to invite friends to my house or get invited to a friend's house. She refuses to change the rules so I'll have more flexibility so that adds to my loneliness. I rarely see my cousins. I don't tell my parents because I already know what they'll say. I will try to start a conversation that will lead to them answering the question without being asked the question.   My mom always had her 6 other siblings and Dad had is X number of cousins. Then there's me, a very lonely person. I have a powerful computer, Xbox 360, Xbox one, ps4, and a big TV, but I have all that with no one to share if with. My cousins can't play with me on my system. We can only do other stuff but there isn't much other stuff we can do due to age differences. So again, I'm alone, always in my room.   In order to hangout with friends I will have to go out somewhere. Many friends don't always have time or energy to go out but I can't go to there house or my house. I was gonna try to go to my crush's house but her mom doesn't like meeting people so once again, I'm stuck. For those who have siblings, enjoy it because I would give up half the stuff I have to have a sibling.

Tribute to "Nice Guys"

This speech wasn't made by me. I found it here: Link   Ode to the Nice Guys This rant was written for the Wharton Undergraduate Journal This is a tribute to the nice guys. The nice guys that finish last, that never become more than friends, that endure hours of whining and bitching about what assholes guys are, while disproving the very point. This is dedicated to those guys who always provide a shoulder to lean on but restrain themselves to tentative hugs, those guys who hold open doors and give reassuring pats on the back and sit patiently outside the changing room at department stores. This is in honor of the guys that obligingly reiterate how cute/beautiful/smart/funny/sexy their female friends are at the appropriate moment, because they know most girls need that litany of support. This is in honor of the guys with open minds, with laid-back attitudes, with honest concern. This is in honor of the guys who respect a girl’s every facet, from her privacy to her theology to her clothing style.   This is for the guys who escort their drunk, bewildered female friends back from parties and never take advantage once they’re at her door, for the guys who accompany girls to bars as buffers against the rest of the creepy male population, for the guys who know a girl is fishing for compliments but give them out anyway, for the guys who always play by the rules in a game where the rules favor cheaters, for the guys who are accredited as boyfriend material but somehow don’t end up being boyfriends, for all the nice guys who are overlooked, underestimated, and unappreciated, for all the nice guys who are manipulated, misled, and unjustly abandoned, this is for you.   This is for that time she left 40 urgent messages on your cell phone, and when you called her back, she spent three hours painstakingly dissecting two sentences her boyfriend said to her over dinner. And even though you thought her boyfriend was a chump and a jerk, you assured her that it was all ok and she shouldn’t worry about it. This is for that time she interrupted the best killing spree you’d ever orchestrated in GTA3 to rant about a rumor that romantically linked her and the guy she thinks is the most repulsive person in the world. And even though you thought it was immature and you had nothing against the guy, you paused the game for two hours and helped her concoct a counter-rumor to spread around the floor. This is also for that time she didn’t have a date, so after numerous vows that there was nothing “serious†between the two of you, she dragged you to a party where you knew nobody, the beer was awful, and she flirted shamelessly with you, justifying each fit of reckless teasing by announcing to everyone: “oh, but we’re just friends!†And even though you were invited purely as a symbolic warm body for her ego, you went anyways. Because you’re nice like that.   The nice guys don’t often get credit where credit is due. And perhaps more disturbing, the nice guys don’t seem to get laid as often as they should. And I wish I could logically explain this trend, but I can’t. From what I have observed on campus and what I have learned from talking to friends at other schools and in the workplace, the only conclusion I can form is that many girls are just illogical, manipulative bitches. Many of them claim they just want to date a nice guy, but when presented with such a specimen, they say irrational, confusing things such as “oh, he’s too nice to date†or “he would be a good boyfriend but he’s not for me†or “he already puts up with so much from me, I couldn’t possibly ask him out!†or the most frustrating of all: “no, it would ruin our friendship.†Yet, they continue to lament the lack of datable men in the world, and they expect their too-nice-to-date male friends to sympathize and apologize for the men that are jerks. Sorry, guys, girls like that are beyond my ability to fathom. I can’t figure out why the connection breaks down between what they say (I want a nice guy!) and what they do (I’m going to sleep with this complete ass now!). But one thing I can do, is say that the nice-guy-finishes-last phenomenon doesn’t last forever. There are definitely many girls who grow out of that train of thought and realize they should be dating the nice guys, not taking them for granted. The tricky part is finding those girls, and even trickier, finding the ones that are single.   So, until those girls are found, I propose a toast to all the nice guys. You know who you are, and I know you’re sick of hearing yourself described as ubiquitously nice. But the truth of the matter is, the world needs your patience in the department store, your holding open of doors, your party escorting services, your propensity to be a sucker for a pretty smile. For all the crazy, inane, absurd things you tolerate, for all the situations where you are the faceless, nameless hero, my accolades, my acknowledgement, and my gratitude go out to you. You do have credibility in this society, and your well deserved vindication is coming.   Fu-zu Jen, SEAS/WH, 2003

Relationship Testing

I've been on yahoo answers. Sometimes, I'll look up a topic and read the answers of the topic or whatnot. Today's topic was "playing hard to get." I did a debate about this so you can go to the bottom. I made this blog just so I can rant and let it all out and feel good about it. Now, for all you girls(and guys), who play hard to get, stop it. I already know the reasons. I'll explain this thoroughly...   Reason 1: I wanna make sure he's the one. I wanna make sure he's not using me. Don't do this. There isn't many guys who's gonna go through the tests. Guys get used too. This goes for guys too, don't test yo girl. I personally will not go through the test. I can do it but the question is "will I do it" not "can I do it".   Reason 2: For your ego If this is your reason, you need some help. I don't care about your selfish ego. Don't have a person spend weeks tryna get you and you just "Oh look, he's chasing me hehehehe" STOP IT! This is probably the worst reason to do it. You don't love him but ur having him go through all this. Goes for guys too, you need some help.   Reason 3: You don't know if you like the other Just tell them "I don't know if I wanna be with you." Do you know what you're really saying if this is your reason for playing hard to get? This is saying "I don't know if I want you but I want you to spend days and weeks tryna get me even though I might still say no." I don't know about you but that is some bull. There is a reason "talking" exist. There's a reason "getting to know" exist.   All reasons in general Don't do it cuz it confuses everyone who's involved. No matter how much a guy/girl loves you, he/she will eventually leave you. You're taking WAY too much of their time. Especially if it's because of reasons 2 and 3. It's irritating to most guys. It's giving me a headache just think about it.   I made a debate about this so you can go here to say your opinion(guests can comment too): http://www.rpgmakervxace.net/blog/485/entry-1549-tests-in-relationships-agree-or-disagree/
