Happy Holidays
I’m off to BC for the holidays! Crispy’s Corner will be back in full effect in 2007.
Here’s some holiday “Life Lessons” courtesy of TLC.
Have a nice life
Bug A Boo – Destiny’s Child
I guess it’s about time I finished this story with my Throwback Thursdays because I know there is at least one person that wants to hear the end of it. I hope the long delay didn’t build up too much suspense …. I was just too lazy to write part 3 before. For those that haven’t read it or need a refresher, here’s part 1 and 2:
Part 1: Maybe SHE’S just not that into YOU
Part 2: She’s just not that into you
For those who don’t want to read the other 2 posts, this is where I left off:
“So I’m thinking he’s going to leave me alone now, after I cancelled TWO dates with him, told him I was uncomfortable and pulled the old ‘I’ll call you’ bit on him. But some people just don’t get the hint.”
A couple of days later, he calls me to help with my job search and suggests a website to check out. I told him thanks and kinda cut the conversation short because I didn’t fell like talking to him. He calls me back a couple days after that and leaves a message asking me if I checked out the website. I didn’t call him back, but then he ended up calling me AGAIN a couple days later to ask me to hang out with him. I said I had plans that night and he asked me what I was doing the next day. I told him I was busy and that I had to go and cut the conversation short again.
Nearly a week passes and I’m thinking he has finally gotten the hint and has given up. Until I felt my phone vibrating. I was shopping with a friend and didn’t feel like digging in my purse to get my phone so I figured I’d call whoever it was back, until I saw the missed call was from him with yet another message asking me to call him back.
*Sigh*
Let me reiterate: I cancelled 2 dates with him, told him I was uncomfortable with his behaviour. I brushed him off on two phone conversations and then didn’t return any of his messages. And guess what? He called me yet AGAIN. So I got tired of letting the phone ring since it clearly wasn’t working so I answered his call. I told him again that his offer to loan me money had made me uncomfortable and offended me and that’s why I cancelled our dates. I wanted some time to myself but his incessant calling and leaving messages was making me feel smothered.
So I just flat out told him, “I don’t think this is going to go anywhere.”
Mr. Moneybags: “Who said I wanted it to go anywhere? I just wanted to be friends.”
Uh huh. That’s why you bought me a pair of shoes on our first date, kept talking about relationships all night like I was on some wifey interview all the while trying to put your arm around me. Oh yeah, and called me for two weeks straight even though I never called you back once or rushed you off the phone when I did answer it. Yeah, just friends. If I was him, I wouldn’t want to talk to me!
Me: “I don’t think we can even be friends. We don’t have much to talk about.”
Mr. Moneybags: “Fine then. HAVE A NICE LIFE.” *click*
During our date, he told me this story about how some girl took him to the mall, picked up a bunch of clothes and said to him at the cash register, “Aren’t you going to pay for it?” He then claimed that he told her he was going to get some money from the ATM and then proceeded to leave the mall without telling her. Hmmmpf. He should have been happy that I turned down his offer.
I can just see him now, complaining to his next wife interviewee about some girl that he bought shoes for and offered rent money too and how ungrateful she was. ** rolling eyes*** Oh and by the way, the shoes hurt my feet and the heel was wobbly. I should have just told him to give me the money.
RiceCrispy’s dating advice:
1) If you don’t want to meet gold diggers, stop making it seem like all you got to offer is your money.
2) Call once and leave a message. If they don’t call you back, I’d say most times it’s best to leave it alone. However, I have accidently erased messages before so, if you really like the person and think it’s worth one more try, then go for it. But if you don’t get a call back after two messages…. well… SHE’S JUST NOT THAT INTO YOU.
3) Persistence is not cute, it suggests stalker tendencies.
And please please please, don’t end up like this guy or else you’ll never get a date again!

Real Love – Mary J. Blige
search terms
People from all over stumble upon this little blog of mine by way of search engines. Some of the phrases are understandable such as “crispys corner”, “dutty wine”(most popular), “cntm,” “multiculturalism is bullshit” or “ikea catalogue.” But every now and again I get some other search terms that make me think about what I wrote. Observe below:
“crispy boobs”
“meat packers male stripper footage”
“taking women to strip club vip room”
“sima chris canada fun 80s”
“black eyed peas cameraman video diary”
“women dinner whore -parkhurst -drink”

New layout
The font is a bit small (or maybe I’m a bit blind).
But I like that colour scheme and layout.
What do you guys think?
Still “Lil” Bow Wow
He’s been trying to act like he’s all grown up but from this interview (if it’s real), he still sounds like a kid to me. Here are some excerpts.
Ozone: So, we all know the story on you and Ciara. But with her new album and sexy video, are you having a little regret about the split?
Bow Wow: First, hell no. Second, y’all don’t know the story about Ciara. Let me tell you, the rumors are she’s a hermaphrodite. Well, she’s not. It’s something that’s worse to me, and a man of my status can’t deal with it. The girl can’t control her bladder. I’m going to just let you sit there and let it sink in and marinate.
Ozone: Bow Wow, I’ve heard some crazy **** before, but man, are you serious? Ciara?
Bow Wow: *****, I couldn’t believe it either. First time the **** happened, that I knew about anyway, was when me, Jay-Z, his broad, JD and Janet were all up in Club 112 in the VIP you know sipping on the high class ****, Cristal and all that. This was before the whole thing with the French guy saying we don’t need to be drinking it. Anyways, there’s a saying amongst us ballers, “Cris makes you piss.” Well, Ciara learned the hard way. Damn, I was just shocked man, you know? I’m a grown ass man and my gal done pissed on herself. And that ***** Jay had the nerve to laugh and ****. I was like hold on Jay, we can’t all retain our water like you and your camel brothers. That ***** was straight hush mouth, and to get the point across further, I kindly slipped a couple of tic tacs to Beyonce, you know?
Ozone: You wild man. This is crazy. *****s are going to be heated.
Bow Wow: Let them man. And I bet ‘ol CiCi is going to be pissed! But yeah, I had to let her loose after she peed on my mama good rug. I just bought that ****. $20,000 Oriental from the Orient you know? I ain’t mad at what happened. I’m on to bigger, better, and dryer things you feel me?

Anyway, there were some more gems but I’m not sure if this interview is even real. Anybody got a copy of Ozone magazine?
Throwback Thursday Videos
Who Do You Love – Deborah Cox
I remember when this video came out, I memorized the routine. Then my friend and I performed the dance routine at a pep rally in highschool. I know! How embarassing 
Back in the day, I had high hopes of being a “Fly Girl.”
Sending My Love – Zhane
Damn black cloud over my head…
So, last week has been an interesting one to say the least. Friday night I lost my damn wallet. Luckily there wasn’t any cash in it but ALL of my bank cards, credit cards and ID was in it. I think I lost it on the bus or subway because I had it with me when I got on (because how would I have paid the fare without it?) and by the time I got downtown, it was gone. 
So here I am stuck downtown, in the rain and cold, without a dime on me. I called my friend who lived in the area but she wasn’t home. God did not want me to be out that night. There have been two sexual assaults reported on my street in the last week and I went out despite that and then ended up losing my wallet.
On top of that I was supposed to meet up with some blogger buddies for dinner, arranged by my “homeslice” Solitaire. I had been looking forward to it all week but when I got to the restaurant at 7:30pm (half an hour late), the stupid hostess tells me the reservation is for 8pm. I asked her if she was sure because I could have sworn it was for 7pm and she said nope…it’s 8pm. So I asked her if by any chance anyone arrived yet and she said no and suggested I wait at the bar. That was when I discovered that I lost my wallet, so I figured I’d cut my losses and go home. (I later found out from Solitaire that the reservations were indeed for 7pm and everyone was there. STUPID STUPID hostess!! I even told her the name of the reservation twice!!! hmmpf)
While I was walking to the subway station, this bum asked me for some change. I was thinking, hey man, you got more money than me at the this point… I should be asking you for change! The guy at the subway was nice, he let me get on the train for free after I told him I lost my wallet and gave me the number to their Lost & Found.
BUT this is a new week and things are looking up. Someone returned my wallet to the lost and found and I picked it up today and everything was in it. Also…… drumroll please ….. I FINALLY got a job offer!!!! Yay me!!!!
Why are people so crazy?
So a short update, because I’m just tired of the whole thing but in reference to the “his girlfriend called me” post, the heffer called back and told me she lied about everything and that he’s not a bad guy and we can continue what we started (because I guess I need her permission). WTF? I was like, why would you lie and she brushed me off, said bye and hung up. I talked to dude and basically just said that I can’t believe anybody at this point. Tis a shame.
Anyway, this got me thinking… how am I supposed to have a healthy relationship when there are crazies running rampant. They should be branded so we can spot them from far away. I mean really, I never understood women who go through dudes phones and call random people. If you got a problem with him, then go to him, not me. This has basically been my motto….
but these silly women aren’t really helping the issue. I was going to write some long psychoanalysis on this issue but why bother? The people that need to read it probably won’t, so instead let’s just watch this youtube clip and shake our heads at the stupidity.
White couple, mixed baby…. is a paternity test necessary?
