A couple, whom I have known since elementary school, who I didn't know was a couple, posted a pic of themselves on the FB streets. Basically 'coming out'.
Great.
No, it's really great. Cuz I love love. I do.
Anyway, I comment, 'Wait. Ermahgawd. Well, y'all cute.'
Boom. A compliment.
I was surprised to see them together. Yes. I exclaimed. OMG! (But since I'm extra, I had to express it phonetically.) And they really were cute. For reals.
My comment gets a couple 'likes'. Someone said it was clever or something to the like. Whatever. It was positive. It was supportive of their new 'union'.
All of that.
2-3 hours later.
She comments, 'What's that BS about?' 😳😳😳
I clutch my pearls and take a breath.
After my second exhale, a message pops up in the inbox. 'What does that mean Haja? He says Ur Jonin on us.' Or some shit like that. I'm ready to go full keyboard courtroom defense attorney on her.
I say, 'it was a compliment. If Ur offended by it, I'll delete. Sorry.'
Boom.
I delete the comment.
I then 'unfriend her'. We were never friends in real life anyway. I know her sister. So basically, 'Bye, bitch. Get the fuck over it. It wasn't nothing offensive.'
She replies, 'No issue. I just didn't know what it meant. My boo said ur a sweetheart. We are African sisters. No problem.'
Of COURSE I rolled my eyes. Wtf? What does Africa have to do with your insecurities?
People really aren't smart.
Yes. He had to go too. I've known her 'boo' for 30 years. (I'm 35. We met in pre-k.)
Anygoddamnway...delete. How sad of him to think that of me. I was in my feelings for about 6 seconds. Then I remembered who the fuck I was. Chile. As if!
Moral of the story, to me, they have issues. Not me. Cuz anyone that follows me on any of these social media lines, KNOWS that my head ain't wrapped too tight and humor makes everything better. BUT I was not laughing or making fun of them.
I am NOW.
AND I'm judging the fuck out of them. Tag team relationship to see who can clapback fastest but their guns are stuck on the short bus.
Terrible. That has never happened to me before. (Oh. Well there was the time I got called a 'Grammar Nazi'. Ha! I tweeted about that. So, that moment is over.)
And it's true testimony to how serious people take this shit.
If YOU put it out there, YOU have left room for others to judge.
SMH
What a damn mess.
People, get a fucking grip and confident over the shit you post on these innanet streets.
Da fuck?!
Now, here comes the 'fun' part! That awkward moment when I see him, I always see him. My next Dunkin Donuts visit is NOT gonna be a pleasant one. Shit!
OH!! HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!
