  1. Troy I'm surprised. I knew you had an engineering degree and had a career in academia; I thought you were part of an academic fraternity. What about a professional fraternity? Most doctors, lawyers, and many engineers are. Again, I'm interested in the deeper explanation. I'm still waiting on Cynique to BEG me so I can answer your question. Which you probably wouldn't believe anyway....lol. When it comes to a lot of Fraternal Orders, Black people often like to COPY what White folks do...without understanding WHY White folks do what they do. Like I said, many Black societies whether they're fraternities or masonic lodges will COPY what they see White fraternities and lodges do without understanding WHY those White fraternities and lodges practice those rituals in the first place or where they came from. Outside of helping eachother get good jobs (which I actually do respect).... Niggaz just running around with rings on their fingers, throwing expensive parties and picnics, and keeping secrets over nothing....lol.

    A wise one can't talk to a fool. Otherwise they cease being wise. I am vacillating between be a Stoic and Nihilist. I have a hard time arguing with people because it is pointless. Most people don't question whether they may be mistaken. I am vacillating between be a Stoic and Nihilist. I have a hard time arguing with people because it is pointless.

    Well in today’s world wise men really need to speak more. Lunatics are getting all the attention.
  6. Shannon Sharpe is the latest celebrity Black man to be targeted by attorney Tony Buzbee who likes to file nuisance lawsuits against rich Black men. Buzbee is the same attorney who went after DeShaun Watson, Diddy and Jay-Z. Despite Sharpe having had an ongoing relationship with his accuser with text messages and video, the attorney is pursuing the case as if Sharpe violated her. Interestingly enough, Shannon Sharpe was set to get a $100 million bag for his broadcasting services. Remains to be seen how this lawsuit plays out and how it affects his money. Black men especially those who have money really need to 1) stop believing they have the same privileges as white men, 2) do a better job of protecting themselves from predators and 3) more importantly....learn how to fight back. 😎
  7. Thank you @aka Contrarian It seems that the decades of practicing Astrology has had an effect. I can feel people móod and I seem to be more magnetic. You are already free.
  8. Finally got around to reading the above BS, having previously exercised my will power to resist the temptation to get the last word in the dialog between me and what's-his- name. But, curiosity got the best of me. Which is more than I can say for Piognat's tantrum. Maneuvering through this turd exhibit did, however, bring about a realization. What I was beholding was the portrait of a desperate, ego-consumed, arrogant, hysterical fool doing one of the few things he does best;regurgitating specious arguments full of irrelevance and lies. In his pathetic, deranged attempt to do damage control, Piognat succeeded only in exposing how mentally unbalanced he is. I don't feel the need to respond to any of his befuddled cherry-picked claims and accusations, knowing that I will simply be providing a crutch for this crippled strawman.

    True I did not want to give her a response again.. because I know what type of query the next question would be....so I had to find another response - knowing full well it would not stop the downward spiral.. As I had no Answer...so I gave the best response I could The Purpose of Life.....is for you to Live And of Course her Answer was....Why?
