Friday Foolishness: Smellin fresh like baby Jesus Yall!

Very quick Friday foolishness..

This weekend I went to an annual festival in Memphis, Africa in April.
Supposedly, this festival celebrates a country in April each year with food, clothes and tributes to that nation’s culture.
Uh yeah. Well unless Nigeria is full of Asians cooking “soul food” I don’t know.
For real, I went to the jerk chicken stand and it was full of Asians rocking red, green and black crochet beanie.
And I am not sure that Nigerians are rocking spandex, tie dyed halter dresses either.

Anyway I bought some shea butter, some incense and some raw shea butter soap.
The soap had soymilk and extracts of Frankincense and Myrrh.

I spoke with one of my best male friends, BIG YO.
(yes I am married and have a male bestie and there has never been any s.e.x in the champagne room, and we have been friends for almost 20 years at this point).

His ignant a$$
What did you get from Africa in April.

Me: Shea butter, incense, Jesus soap

Him: Dayum, lol why you call it Jesus soap

Me: Because it has frankincense and Myrrh.
Him: What does that have to do with Jesus.
Me: fool, that’s what the wise men gifted to baby Jesus.
This ignant a$$: Shyt, I aint never read the bible.
Me. (after a vicious side eye) Dayum Yo. Why you have to go and do that
Him: what?
Me: The stereotypical ninja shyt of saying one stupid thing and then trying to cover it up with something even more ignorant.
Him: Oh
Me: *sigh* a mind is a terrible thing to waste….. NO mo 420 for you.
Anyway


I am not even Christian, but got dayum, who don’t know the story of Christmas. The north star, baby jesus, the manger, Mary and Joseph and the 3 wise men gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh.

Anyway, share your tales of negronian conversations… or should I say negronian conversates?
