Fantastic Four If you are a fan of the FF, then you will really be pleased with this movie….The action…one liners…..and the Flight scene with the Human Torch and Silver Surfer is just tooooo tight…..overall the sroryline was off at times but they made up for it in many different ways…plus i dont want to give it away for those who hadn’t seen it yet

Hey Wise. I think the best thing to do would be to compare notes with others. Fortunately, I have a good diverse group of friends that I try to run any ideas that I have by before I actually put them into action. I think if a woman cooked for me and it was not good, it would be tough to tell her how I felt. I dont know why single’s are overconfident. They dont have anyone! We should be more humble.

“Has someone ever done something to impress you but it turned you off instead”

This babe took me to a nice place to eat. And the waiter hit on her all through the meal, spilt oysters on me as he said, “Sorry Rockefeller”, and then almost set me on fire with a bananas flambé. I felt bad for her, more than I, but that’s the way it goes. Rolls with it.

Tough being, The Don.

Do you think single people often have an inflated sense of self? Perhaps our egos make us too confident and we aren’t even aware of it. How do we get a reality check, through friends, or maybe ask for feedback?

Well if no one is telling you the truth or keeping you humble then the assumption would be that your ego could get a bit unbalanced; especially if you aren’t the type of person that takes time for self-reflection. Family and friends should definitely pull you to the side if they feel you are a little out of hand or off the wall acting. If you can’t trust your friends or family to be real, then who can you trust? I know often times when a person if being confronted with the ‘truth’ we clam up and get defensive. I can only advise that we be delicate in telling a person about themselves. It’s not always what you say but how you say it.

Now in regards to asking for feedback from someone you’re dating, I’ve heard of guys getting a little annoyed with those types of questions. I guess it makes them feel a little uneasy about possibly hurting ones feelings. If i ask, i want to know the truth.

What would you feel I can improve on?

Do my jokes or sarcasm make you feel uneasy?

Would you care to attempt to stomach this dish i made, or should we just run out for take out? lol

It can be anything. Just be open to hear what the other person has to say before you jump down their throat for do simply what you asked. If you blow up, then don’t expect them to be honest with you in the future. Point blank. Cuz dayum if i’m going to let you jump down my throat for answering something you asked me.

The problem with impressions is sometimes the break down in translation and/or delivery. The differences in ‘taste’’ (in this case literally) between recipient and contributor can turn a work of art into a reject.

The funny thing is a bad first impression can be overlooked if the contributor has much more to offer in way of conversation or fun factor.

All I can say is don’t toot your own horn if the your act of greatness has not been proven and then again it’s just really hard to tell when you have no idea who you are dealing with.

Hm. I am honestly (not bragging here) not a bad cook, having been the designated family cook growing up. The only thing I don’t do well is make candy.

As someone pointed out earlier, we single folk lack a system of checks and balances to tell us when we are doing right and wrong. Some people really, really like their food super salty, and some don’t. It’s all a matter of taste…and maybe what Cole made for you, my dear, suited his palate but not yours. We all do have different taste. I have made an experimental dish or two that was so horrid that I’ve gotten up, grabbed everyone’s plates, and tossed the whole lot (and ordered a pizza).

I don’t think we have an over inflated sense of self. I think we are insecure, and PROJECT a false sense of confidence in areas where we are the weakest.

Oh, and blogfam? Dumped the azzhat this weekend. Tool.

Daaaaaaaaaang Dark Brown that’s too funny!

A guy I dated told me all about his previous career as a record producer. He’d written and produced for some big names, Blackstreet, Tyrese, and a few others. I checked. He was listed in the liner notes as a producer. He told me about his high dollar lifestyle, his Mercedes, Italian suits and all of the bling. When I met him, he was relying heavily on his parents for his bill-paying ability. But, in his mind he was still living the bling-bling life. I didn’t know him when he was living so well, and liked him just fine in his current situation. And I have no idea what happened to all of his stuff…he never quite got around to explaining that, and it didn’t really matter. It was clear it was gone, and he hadn’t quite gotten over it. I will say that he seems to have moved on and is a lot happier now. But, when I first met him, he would have everyone believing that he’d given all of that stuff up so he could live a simpler life. Yeah, that’s the ticket….

The very purpose of existence is to reconcile the glowing opinion we have of ourselves with the appalling things others think of us.

Quentin Crisp was a flaming queen, but that’s still a great quote. Take it to heart, Diva; you can be sure that just as you take a dim view of other’s foibles, so do they take a similarly dim view of yours. Nobody is all that.

how do you know if what you are doing is really effective? You don’t. All you can do is hope a person would tell you what you’re doing wrong and spare your feelings in the process.

Has someone ever done something to impress you but it turned you off instead? Did you tell them or did you keep it to yourself? My story involves a bad meal too, and they all tend to sound the same…

Do you think single people often have an inflated sense of self? In Atlanta, hell yes! Most of us come here having been the cream of the crop in another place, only to find ourselves at par for the course in the Big A. I think some of us recognize that and others carry on as if they are the only fish in the pond.

What up Blog… said while flashing the Lifetime Membership MLB Badge

Diva You should’ve told this dude that you didn’t dig that dish. Personally food is one thing that I won’t compromise on. If it doesn’t look and smell good, Blue ain’t touchin’ it!

So if y’all were enjoying each other’s company and you were pleasant about telling the dude, although he may have felt a little sorry for not pleasing you at the moment, I’m sure that he would’ve quickly recovered.

Bonus: He would’ve respected you that much more for being truthful, and not allowing a bad circumstance spoil the whole situation.

As far as “impressing”, save all that for the dudes on stage. They get paid to do comedy.

abc…that’s so true, I think you can definitely be confident without needing validation all the time though. I think a lot of people spend too much energy worrying about what others think of them, though.

and just to be clear guys, his poor cooking is NOT something I would dump him (or any guy) over, nor do I consider it a turn off. I just used this as an example of how his perception of impressing me with food didn’t umm impress me. I WAS impressed by his efforts (told him so too) and I definitely was impressed that he went through all that trouble! Bless his heart, LOL

Good morning blogfam. I hope ev1 had a good one. Double cheek touch to the women of MLB and elbow smash to the men of the MLB.

WD that ain’t right. Cole tried and you peed on his salad. LOL (Whats wrong with bagged salad anyway?) I’ve cooked for quite a few women and I guess the scorecard comes when they ask when your going to do it again, years and years later. I had a neighbor cook for me once and she made some half cooked meatloaf. I couldn’t eat it and ended up trashing it and telling her I didn’t feel good.

Also, I do think single folks have inflated egos. Theirs no one there to reign you in. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with that tho.

Gaman my buddy said F4 sucked but based on your recommendation I’ll see it. You haven’t let me down yet.

@GA Man..I saw FF with my son on Saturday and I really enjoyed it.

On topic, I’ve gotten over trying to impress folks. Did that in my twenties when I thought it mattered.

Anyway, I feel sorry for the guy because he’s obviously not aware of how bad a cook he is. Wise, I hope you tell him about his cooking at some point.

By T-Mango

June 18, 2007 10:20 AM | Link to this

When it comes to impressing each other, we may think that we are scoring big points, but how do you know if what you are doing is really effective?

Well, in dating I don’t set out to try to impress anyone, but if I’m into you I will do nice things for you as a means to express myself and your enjoyment. But, I try to tailor it to the person.

I think where folks go wrong is by taking the “cookie cutter” approach. Everybody likes different things. Therefore, if it’s points you’re looking for you may fare better if you have taken the time to learn more about a person’s likes and dislikes before you go with your signature anything.

For example, cooking may be your strongpoint. People may rave about your steak dishes and chocolate deserts. Therefore, you are confident that preparing these dishes will be a win because it has never failed- So.., you prepare these specialties out of the kindness of your heart for a date. However, it may not go over well if you don’t know that your date is a vegetarian and allergic to chocolate…

I don’t know who made the quote “success is in knowing the details”, but he or she was right. I think this is applicable to finding the right way as it relates to the topic here as well. Just my .02-

And Wise hopefully you will tell the guy instead of letting him go on thinking that he pleased you with his meal when you know that is not true. I think it is always good to let a person know for better or for worse. Just remember to be careful how you say it or it could offend and hurt someone’s feelings. :(

Cassie There’s no need to feel sorry for yourself. Just chuck it up as another lesson learned. Sometimes it takes getting 2nd and 3rdh degree burns before we realize that getting burned doesn’t isn’t fun or healthy for us.

in my life I continue to pick such p poor men**

This reminds me of the Charmed School episode where the ladies received a lesson on the different types of men. The lesson was for them to talk with all the guys at the party and try to pick the Good Guy out of the typical players. Needless to say, none of them picked the Good guy. Not sure what point I was trying to make here since I got thrown off by a phone call

Cassie, you remind me of a friend of mine, she continues to choose lousy men because of her predilection for those that seem ‘fun’ rather than those that seem real, stable, reliable. You’ll get a good man when you seek one. Considering your description of that guy last week, you’re not very interested in looking for one yet.

Cassie It’s all good! Don’t even worry about the “p* poor men as you put it. They are just a stepping stone leading you in the direction of the “one”. I think of the bad dates as a lesson that I needed to learn to get where I going! Mission: Possible :)

I know I lurk more than comment but this blog is a good one to respond to.

Has someone ever done something to impress you but it turned you off instead? I have experienced this a couple of times with some girls I dated a while ago. One was older than I and was trying to show me that she wasn’t just looking for a husband by trying to out party me until she figured out I was just dating and not in the market. The other time was scary from the get go and I would rather not discuss it for fear of having violent flashbacks.

Did you tell them or did you keep it to yourself? I told the first one a day later and the second one got told within minutes of said disastrous attempt at showing off.

Do you think single people often have an inflated sense of self? Hell yes they do…especially singles from the A, they are the worst on the market. It boils down to Atlanta once being a mecca of nightlife.

Perhaps our egos make us too confident and we aren’t even aware of it. How do we get a reality check, through friends, or maybe ask for feedback? I get checked by the people that matter most in my life, from my friends to my family they all play a large part but I make my own decisions.

I really think it all comes down to sticking to what you know you are skilled at. I can cook really well, I was taught at a young age by my parents and I was just shy of becoming an executive chef when I was 20 but couldn’t deal with the lifestyle choices. I have bombed on several occasions and had to literally take everyone to McDonald’s for Big Macs but how you recover is the trick. Not to mention most people don’t eat with their mouths anyways, they eat with their eyes. If it doesn’t look good, it won’t taste good either. Diva:you were visually turned off by the bagged lettuce and croutons, as well as the main course not being your cup o’ tea.
I agree though, I am not one to take kindly to lack of creativity and originality in food. I even credit for effort but ish happens from time to time but your date over the weekend seemed to be plain old slacking.

As for cooking one problem is there are a lot of people, particularly chicks, who have no taste whatsoever so what a sophisticated diner might enjoy would be gagged on by a McDonalds fan.

Yes,most good looking women rarely bring anything else to the table, they are pampered and spoiled in this country and never feel the need to develop any life skills other than stripping or reading notes on TV. They develop a false sense of worth due to all the dudes fawning all over themselves to score and then go nuts when they get older and their looks are gone.

Good morning Everyone!

Diva I am cracking up at your story, especially about feeding that slop to Fido! I guess the dog never came to the table because he knew better! LOL!

I choose not to impress, but rather just be me. Of course if I am in a relationship with someone, I want him to appreciate me and recognize my positive qualities. But, I will never try to force feed myself onto a man. It is his choice to either like me or not. I believe that it depends upon the intentions of both parties…If you are not on the same relationship page—in fact, in different books—it does not matter what.

I cannot think of one significant instance where a man’s attempt to impress me was a turnoff. If it were to happen, I would have to diplomatically tell him the truth. Otherwise, he will do it again.

Speaking of cooking I took my sweetie to the Real Men Cook event yesterday. Some of the food was not that delectable, but we still had a wonderful time.

Have a Powerful, Productive, Prosperous and Positive Day!!!

Mocha Monique telling Brooke how much of a ho she acted like is a prime example of telling someone the truth. She didn’t like what was said, got defensive and totally missed out on what Monique was trying to tell her. Personally, her mouth needs a makeover.

I have met guys who lied about their singledom, one even lied saying he was a widower but I guess his wife resurrected because I got one of those phone calls from her.

Cassie You’re not alone, I’ve made som terrible mistakes since I’ve come back to the dating scene. Dating is so different from what I remember. I’m in my mid thirties and last time I dated I was in my early twenties and boy has time changed. I have met guys who lied about their singledom, one even lied saying he was a widower but I guess his wife resurrected because I got one of those phone calls from her. My last misadventure was a guy I was dating invited me to a benefit function which I found out that he not only had a fiancee’ but she was 7 months pregnant with his child.

Purple Ok, now that hurts! How the h e double hockey sticks are you supposed to be able to figure that out before hand? What a sleaze bucket!

Slim I want someone who does not say the following things to me “You have baggage” or “I think you are frigid” (I am NOT) or “You are too weird”. I am tired of being with men who want to try and change me. Why can’t people accept people for who they are…? And just for once I’d like someone who can pay their own way.

For that matter, why do women (or men) look at potential mates and think they’d be great if not for x or y? Or worse, marry someone with the intent of fixing the bad behavior in question? What’s up with that?

That’s like saying, “My husband/wife is really a child but will have to grow up once we have a baby”…

Diva - I’ve been in a situation just like yours! Funny! I handled it the same way you did. Fortunately, things improved in that area because I am a pretty decent cook, love to cook, so when we were not going out, I did the cooking. I praised him over and over for his effort, and he did do pretty well later on with smaller dishes and BBQ!

Blog Family - I would like your opinion on something. Last Tuesday, after work I went into this rather high-end home decor/furniture store in Alpharetta to purchase a gift certificate for a dear friend’s birthday. I took notice to a rather attractive gentleman that worked there and we exchanged greetings, though another employee waited on me. Well, I make my purchase and leave. As I am about to pull off, the gentleman comes out of the store and comes up to my car. He apologized that he never does this sort of thing, but he found me attractive and just could not let me leave without speaking to me. He told me he was single and he was a systems engineer fulltime, but he really liked the store was decorating his house with a lot of their products, so why not work part-time there? We chatted for about 5 minutes and discovered we had a lot in common. We exchanged numbers and he told me he would definitely be calling me, but also I could call him any time. That was Tuesday, this is the following Monday. I have not heard squat from him. Against my better judgement, I called him and left a nice, brief message on Saturday afternoon. Still, nothing! I am definitely not calling him back, but I am disappointed because I thought we had a connection and was looking forward to getting to know him. Why would he go through the trouble of running out to my car, only to not call? I’ve been out of the dating game a little while, so of course I did not expect him to call me that night or even the next day, but a WEEK later - NOTHING? What do you guys think?

Blog Family, many women show interest and give out their numbers to men they really have no interest in seeing again. It is possible this guy thought you might be doing the same. On the other hand, like he said he “never does this sort of thing”, so maybe he is still shy. Maybe he just has some other issues. Many possibilities.

And,some guys collect numbers just to see if they can. I don’t give out my number to every guy that asks, so if you get it, hold on to it!

I know he likes biscuits from Hardee’s, so I figured I would get him one on his special day. We sat at the table in silence, enjoying the moment as he used his good hand to feed himself. Hardee’s biscuits are kind of oily, so I also got him a napkin from Hardee’s.

Scientist MusingLee that’s true…but, what about the: The only thing you have going for yourself is your dyck’, comments?

I use to get that a lot…Can I talk about, “how they ain’t got no bitties”, if they have none?

Slim I am not in the market of disrespecting women…I simply told her I will not be calling again, because of such and such incident.

Yep, if the pics are factual, they will be in Jet. The setup on that one was REALLY different (Never seen a person laid to rest on a small couch as if they were sleeping before)… But, maybe a coffin was not used because they burn the coffin along with the body during cremation? I may be wrong for saying it, but I am not convinced that those pictures are of her. If they are…I stand respectfully corrected.

Musing suddenly the wang’s past performances are flagged as terrible or “Your D ain’t ishh, M/f!”…

LMAO Mayne, that’s because a chick will say and do whatever she thinks will hurt that brother the most. In scratching rides, slashing tires, and bad-mouthing Dyck Johnson, they hope to do as much damage as possible to a man’s financial state while simultaneously attempting to derail and sabotage his sex life.

And why? Because hopefully in his supposedly injured state he won’t be attracting any new “broads”… and this same female knows that she wants to get back with this dude next month, good dyck and all!

Musing You ain’t got NO sense! LMAO!

Mochalatte/Slim (sounds like a new drink at Starbucks) Don’t even get started on Biscuitville! The worst part(best, if you’re my trainer) is that there isn’t one near my house or my office. Got a Bojangles, but it’s just not the same!

kimmie Had the same thing happen to me. Saw a guy at the gym one night, at a location I don’t normally go to…FINEFINE!!! But, I was working out, and I’m not one of those cutesy women when I work out. LOL! But, he was apparently impressed anyway. He was a new trainer at that location, and asked my trainer about me. Problem was that he didn’t stay at that gym, and I never saw him again. He saw my trainer about 4-5 times after that, and we found out we had a friend in common. But, by the time that happened, several weeks had gone by, and the feeling was gone. LOL! Oh well!

Jake I think I saw some portion of Hitch 3 times this weekend. It was definitely a slow tv weekend! LMAO!

Sean J Yeah I got that email too but I saw it way before she even died. I pity the fool who sent that email out saying it was Yolanda King. in my Mr T voice

As Musing tries to get away with Slim’s purse he slips on some BBBBQ sauce (Bunsen Burner Bar-B-Q) and breaks what’s left of the damage caused by his chronic WangillisOpticus

Mocha I have some family in NC, and my cousin turned me on to Biscuitville a few months ago. I’m hooked for life.

Jake Hitch was on all weekend it seemed like, Thanks TBS, all I had to do was wait it out It was the same as missing your bus, you just chill and wait until the next one comes by. I have to admit that they wore that thang out though. I wonder how much they paid to run it.

I went to Hardee’s this morning and ordered a ‘Chocolate Overload’ milk shake. The manager said the milk shake machine was not ready because people do not order milk shakes in the morning usually. I had no idea. I like to drink milk and I like chocolate.

He said he could pour some of the mix in a cup with ice and it would be like a chocolate milk. I have never ordered a chocolate milk at Hardee’s before so I said, “okay.” He charged me the same price as a milkshake, but it was not a milkshake. It was a cup of milkshake mix with ice.

I pushed my father’s wheel chair and gave him a cracker to munch on while I ate my loaded breakfast burrito and loaded biscuit n’ gravy bowl. It was too much food and Dad kept going on and on about being hungry. I said, “Dad you should have thought bout that before we left the house. You said something light, so I got you a cracker to eat at Hardee’s.”

My dad has got a bad hand and he cannot eat too big a meal with his other so he has to eat small things because he cannot move it so well. It takes him a long time to eat big things and I would not want to sit in the restaurant for very long because it is very cold in there and the windows are always foggy so you cannot see out of the windows.

I like the loaded biscuit n’ gravy bowl at Hardee’s. I have an idea that I want to mail to them to make. I want them to invent a big biscuit with gravy inside of it sort of like those soup in a bread bowls they sell at Applebee’s. I only get to go to Applebee’s on my special days, and I always get the soup in a bread bowls when I go there. I eat at Hardee’s a lot, so if they could make me a gravy in a big biscuit bowl it would be like every day is a special day for me. I do not know if Hardee’s would give me an award for such a great idea, but I am sure they will thank me when they see how many I eat! They will be rich!

I ate the loaded biscuit n’ gravy bowl first, then I thought I would try the ‘chocolate overload’ milkshake that was actually just mix in a cup with ice. It did not taste very good. It did not taste cold like a milkshake. It was sort of like butter milk with really dark brown chocolate sauce. I thought it may need the ice to be crushed somehow so the ice pieces would be smaller like in a milk shake. I poked the ice with my straw but they would run away from my straw and not let me crush them. I used dad’s key the crush them because he has one long one that goes in the Oldsmobile. It worked okay, but I accidentally poked a hole in the bottom of my cup and began to pour out of my cup. If it had been a milkshake I do not think it would have come out so fast.

Dad stuck his hand in it when the puddle moved to his side of the table. I said, “Don’t try to clean it up dad. I will get some towels from the bath room.” I think he was trying to eat the milkshake with his good hand. I could not tell, because since the table was not level the milkshake poured into his lap. I ran into the bath room, but could not find any paper towels as they had wind machines to dry your hands. I went outside and there was the manager standing at our table asking where I was. My dad was sticking hand back-and-forth from his mouth to inside his pants eating up the chocolate milkshake. Since it was not really a milk shake it was not light brown like a milk shake, but dark brown like a chocolate syrup. The manager thought my dad was doing something gross with himself. He asked me to leave with my father immediately. I did not get to eat my burrito until we got to the park. Dad said the ants were biting him because he had a lot of chocolate milkshake drink mix in his pants and ants like sweets.

After that we went home and the day was fairly uneventful after that. The loaded breakfast burritos are not very good when they get cold and the ‘chocolate overload’ milkshakes are not very good when they are not cold enough. It is kind of like the story about goldilock and the three bears when she ate the soups. Luckily the loaded biscuit n’ gravy bowl was just right. Wish me luck on my invention!

Slim now having flashback of a hot summer day wearing a tank top and a rude little good for nothing…okay back to the story…um said You’re so skinny your ipples touch

BK/Musing well the same way chicks try to say the Vitamin was merely skim milk, men use the same logic…That’s why yous a ho…that’s why you sucked my so-n-so! That’s why I teabagged you etc….But buddy wasn’t saying all that when it was all good now was he?

WangillisOpticus usually gives way to the second condition which demi spoke of briefly called “Wangusallugottis”…That’s when a Woman retracts her “Your D ain’t ishh” statement and replaces it with “You think you’re Mr. Big D…Well that’s the only thing your sorry’azz has”….Upon returning home and realizing she has offended the good wang, she later makes up for it by stating how good the wang actually is, but the person with the bomb wang isn’t fit to use it….Much like a 17 year old driving a Porshe 911.

One dude was like, that’s why her p-dussy smell like Pigs-n-a-blanket. I’m thinking to myself, well they must’ve been mighty tasty. lol

Sean J Childish isn’t even the word. I’ve never used the Your D ain’t ish line in an argument. Obviously someone like the acts that were performed if both parties still stuck around.

Folks if the D isn’t good or if the p-dussy smell like sardines or is weak, tell that person during the time you’re on good terms. Why wait till an argument ensues to start calling it out? It goes back to today’s topic….Sometimes folks don’t know or aren’t aware of certain things until someone is brave enough to let it be known.
