  1. Troy I agree that SOME of them can be wrong, but how would you KNOW they were wrong? What standard or criteria is out there for us to measure each interpretation against to determine that one is right, one is wrong, and one is "way off the mark"? If I tell someone that this is wrong, that means I have to have the knowledge of what is right. If someone asks you for an address and you give them one, and I tell you the address you gave them was wrong....that means I have the RIGHT address. How else would I know it's wrong? Same with this. In order for me to determine that something is wrong, I must know it correctly.
  2. She should have waited on her Black Prince. It's not just their personal preferences that's the issue. It's the signal they're sending younger Black females; especially the girls. They're telling them....by their actions...that the ideal thing to do when you're successful and you want to
  3. also starring... DEMOND WILSON and Delano "Snake Hips" Jenkins (Dolemita's Enforcers) "Listen Honky! Ain't nobody come here to listen to you and yo' ugly ass wife playin' on no GOT damn piano and sang about the old days! We were sent here on a mission from Lady D, herself! Now take us to the muthafuckin' safe and open it up chump! I'm an expert in Astrology and can read minds too. So DON'T try to jive us, sucka!"
  4. Also starring...... You know him as Prince Hakeem from Coming To America "I love the flower bearers....trust me, I do. But just once father.... What would be wrong with ME washing my own penis, for a change?" And as Quick from Harlem Nights "Nah muthafucka, the last White man who slapped me and got away with it was the doctor who slapped me on the butt when I was born. And I'm STILL looking for his ass!" And now..... as Dolemite himself! EDDIE MURPHY "Slow down daddy.....you walkin' too fast! These jive ass muthasuckaz can't keep up with us! Look here daddy..... You outta take your pimp cane and CANE these jive niggaz like they stole something in Singapore!"
  5. And co-starring..... The man we all know and love since his early comedy days.... "But see now, the crazy thang about it is.... Anybody can get some p****sy now-a-days! Like when I was comin' up...you know.... a nicca had to SANG or DANCE or somethin' to get some p***sy!" RICHARD PRYOR as POP "Got damn boy.....da' hell you doin' back here? Shit! And who all them long legged gulz in the car wit'cha??? You owe some niggaz some money or something? Is we gotta pack up and move again???"
  6. ProfD Be careful saying what they "can't do" under THIS Administration. 1. Any part of the Constitution can be changed/amended or even eliminated if you get enough people in Congress and on the SCOTUS to support it. 2. Who...20 years ago...would have believed a man convicted of 34 felonies would have even won the Republican nomination let alone be elected AGAIN to the White house?
  7. Lol....but was it original? If I were to check elsewhere online, I wonder how many times will I find that same joke in circulation?
  8. Starring You know her as that crazy ass woman who used to whoop Gabby Sidibe's ass in the movie Precious! "Bitch you hear me callin' you! Git'cho ass up in here!" As well as her raunchy stand-up comedy routines! Yall, I took one look at that lil' ole thang he pulled out and said... Nicca is that yo D!*% or do you got 2 belly buttons???" MO'NIQUE As aka C Lady Dolemita
  9. Play this track every time you enter the thread to maximize your entertainment experience.....lol. Move over Dolemite! Make way for the Big Bad Ass Mamma herself! A Rudy Ray Productions in collaboration with Warn - A -Brutha Studios aka Contradiction Pictures and Saul Turtletaub Entertaiment presents: DOLEMITA 🤣
  10. Evidence of the title of the thread. That the world has known about the sexual potency of Black men since ancient times!
  11. He confessed to believing that the 2020 election was stolen, but did he confess to actually planting those B's??? And why would he put them under BOTH the Democrat AND Republican locations? That doesn't make a whole lot of sense, if it's true. Then again..... The more I look at and listen to some of these Trump supporting niggaz, the more I feel that movie "Get Out" is based in reality...lol.
  12. ProfD In this fellas case...I seriously doubt she's his soulmate. Most likely...she's a beard. Exactly. I don't think he's into the ladies anyway. You could look at how he was holding his hands while kissing Rosario Dawson to know SOMETHING ain't "jiving" right....lol From this angle..... Looks like his eyes and lips were shut so tight like he was trying to TOLERATE kissing the woman....lol. I'm not suggesting they cannot have fun together i.e. shopping, getting their nails done, girls night out, etc. ...especially when fellow senator Lindsay Graham is invited to come along. Dolemita aka Contrarian I'm surprised that 2 "female aficionados" like you and pioneer seem so intimidated about the age difference between Cory and Alexis. Talk about "making up scenarios" in your own head....lol. Nothing ProfD nor myself has said would give anyone who thinks rationally any remote idea of us being "intimidated" by their age gap. There's a difference between NOTING something and being INTIMIDATED by it. I may NOTE that a woman is wearing a tight miniskirt at her husband's funeral because it looks a bit out of place, but that doesn't mean I'm INTIMIDATED by it. Anyway, who cares what I think? Your psychiatrist. It may determine whether or not he needs to change your medication. Some times I don't even thlink Well that's obvious. You have to THINK in order to proof read, lol.
  13. See @ProfD this is what I mean...... Come on Uncle Phil....you want to "end" Birthright Citizenship? Which opens the gate to them removing YOUR citizenship next? The 14th Amendment was instituted specifically to ensure that ADOS and their offspring were able to not only get citizenship but KEEP our citizenship in this country and not have it be removed by racist politicians with the same tricks they would use to prevent our Ancestors from voting or owning property. How in the hell are you going to question the validity of the 14th Amendment or claim it "must go" just because you don't like how certain people today may TRY to use it to their benefit, when it's still FAR more beneficial to you? Reminds me of racists in rural America who are ON welfare but will vote for racist politicians AGAINST welfare just to keep Black folks from getting it.
  14. Take this video as an example of what I'm talking about: Why is this nigga even SPEAKING on this issue? How does this get our people Reparations or further the causes and interests of Black America? Just being a nigga and linking up with White racists to bush other Black folks......for gotdamn NOTHING.
  15. When Dolemita sees a White man, she says: "There goes the man of my dreams. I wonder does he want ME as I want him?"
  16. What's a trip is seeing Jack-In-The-Box joints down South...lol. I remember a time you ONLY found them out on the West Coast.
  17. Troy If that's my conclusion, find the quote of my claiming this please? If I ignored your replies, we wouldn't be going back and forth in this thread right now...lol. Why don't you just admit that you don't have an explanation or interpretation for this passage, outside of the one I just gave? No. I study very little of the actual WRITTEN text of these languages. Most of my biblical studies involve the TRANSLITERATIONS of these languages from their original texts.
  18. Sure about this? Remember a few months ago they WERE talking about deporting American criminals to El Salvador. Who makes up a disproportionate amount of the incarcerated in this nation???
  19. Like YOU'RE doing right now???
  20. ProfD The best thing for Black Americans to do is STAY OUT of it. But they aren't staying out of it when they come on their talk shows grinning and CHEERING ON Donald Trump and grinning and giggling talking about "it's about time" and "he's telling it like it is" and saying "that's right we need to get them freeloading Haitians and Somalis the fuck out". They're clearly TAKING HIS SIDE AND SUPPORTING HIM and his racist rhetoric. What kind of talk is that from Black folks? They're gonna be calling the man White-Jesus in a minute. These racist clowns don't want them out because they're committing crimes or freeloading. They want them out because THEY'RE BLACK and they're trying to whiten the country up! But you got these dumb ass niggas sitting up here grinning and giggling at Trump's words thinking it's cute or it's a dissing contest or something, not knowning that there are real consequences behind hateful rhetoric like this. I don't know what they're putting in that fake ass weed some of these niggaz are smoking to make them fall in love with racists all of a sudden. And like you said, it's not just against Black immigrants....they hate other BLACK AMERICANS not of their political persuasion. They hate Black Democrats and Pan Africanists too. In other words.....ANYBODY that's good for and trying to do something for Black America....these "New Black Media" niggas seem to find fault in it. But Trump and the Republicans....not a word of criticism over them.
  21. " And, by the way, ...did I mention that you are JIVE-ASSED, NIGGA?" Lol....this....coming from a jive ass turkey???
  22. Troy I’m not sure what difference they would make if people read the Bible. There are so many different interpretations It’s hard to believe it describes the same religion. That being the case, how can you condemn another person's interpretation or claim it's wrong or taken out of context? Pioneer, for example, believes, the Bible teaches us that Black men have the biggest penises and accepts this revelation as proof that it is true — and this is after reading the Bible in four different languages! Actually, I only read the ENTIRE Bible in one....English. I read PARTS of it in different languages but not the entire thing....although that's one of my distant goals when I have time to do so. I've gotten a MUCH better understanding of not only the Bible but of history in general by taking a closer and more detailed look at the time period and what the authors really were trying to convey in their original languages. The reality is that for the vast majority of time the Christianity has been in existence, most of its followers could not read the Bible. Which is why they remained Christian. Most Christians who took time to actually READ their so-called holy book would actually LEAVE their religion. Reading the Bible is one of the things that actually took my out of religion. Especially when you realize by reading the Old Testament that the Bible teaches that their are MANY Gods/Deities....not just One. ProfD Back in the day, I remember public service announcements encouraging young people that Reading is Fundamental (RIF). There was also Reading Rainbow. Oh man, you're bringing back memories! I think my man Levar Burton was on that show for a while...lol. Also Maya Angelou had a few cameos on it....if I'm not mistaken. Brotha @Pioneer1 is in a minority having read the entire bible several times and in different languages too. That's another level. As I told Troy, I've only read the entire Bible in English. I study sections and passages of it in it's original Hebrew, Greek, and Aramaic languages through TRANSLITERATION. It's a real eye opener. You realize that a lot of the words in English have been PURPOSELY mistranslated in order to confuse the readers.
