Thumbs down Contradiction

Sorry to disappoint you but I don't follow people around-and you wouldn't be an option. I've just been an acute, silent observer for a while.

You say one thing then turn around and state the opposite. You like to call others out for their "hypocrisy" while doing the same thing.

However in a topic titled "Favorite Brand of Clothing",

So were you lying and really got your Ferragamo shoes from Target?

Are you talking with the white/black employees and discussing how blacks are so tacky and embarrassing?

Don't lie just to make a point valid. You should take tabs on your own posts so that you don't say one thing in one thread and then contradict yourself in another.

I don't understand how you can say in one breathe we need to have better social graces to accommodate to white people and in the same breathe say these people don't want us shopping in their stores anyways. again.

Maybe if you hadn't come off like, "I got my stuff together but the rest of you black folks don't", you wouldn't have gotten the reaction you did.

And to keep with the topic at hand , I use cash (if I physically have it) depending on where I am or what I'm buying. However, since the invention of the debit card, I will swipe, swipe in a heartbeat.
