My Weirdest Random Facebook Friend Request

Okay like everyone else after I wake up, talk to the Lord, contemplate my life and day, & get ready for the day, I check the net to find out what I missed while I was sleep. Lo & Behold did I got a random friend requests on Facebook, today.
Truth be told some of these
"Mutual Friends" also
Like most people the random Facebook friend requests I get are some random guys looking to date or screw me or kidnap me to sell me into sexual slavery (Sometime along with an inbox message. Oh those are really funny). I don't use Social Media as a dating site (It's for the people who know my biological name in offline land, that I want to be social with,) so all of them get denied. Crazy part is as bad as I dislike them, I always click on the profile to see what I can see before I deny them Facebook friendship. This one today had to be by far the weirdest one yet for me

I was expecting a face that more than likely belongs to someone of foreign descent or some geriatric sugar daddy (Yeah the "Bapti-Costal" look brings the deacons & trustees to the gate. LoL) for his profile picture. I'm a plus size woman there are some men I know I attract, whether I am attracted or not. This time I didn't get a face. I got this.
I'll protect the stupid.
(This Time)
What the heck? He has the unmitigated gall to make this is profile picture. I was so perplexed that he tried it. Does this actually work for him? Is there any woman this desperate & gullible to accept & meet this man. Do I want to know the chick that hits accept? No One can be this dumb. All I could do was screen shot this stuff. and get ready for the day. I had a client in an hour and my FB activity had nothing to do with them.
The person Facebook says
 I may know
(I don't)
will be protected.
They had nothing to do with this.
If you know Mr. Osaruyi, tell him to STOP!!!
That profile picture is not cute. He is Not fooling me. And I will pray for anyone that is fooled into being his Facebook friend. This is one of the reasons why I deny All random Facebook friend request. Too many dangerous weirdos in the world to let into mine. But I know I'm preaching to the choir. What was your weirdest social media friend request? Leave it in the comments below.

Nothing is Taboo on the Internet (I Blame Pop Culture)

We talk about Everything on the World Wide Web. I said We. So, I am included also. Pop Culture is to blame. Pop Culture makes us feel like we have an opinion about all that every is & was. Pop Culture encourages us to talk, share & post it all.

Earlier this week articles & blog post popped up about a teacher who posted to Facebook this picture

with the caption,

“One of my students came to school today with her hair full of knots, lent, and ridiculously tangled,” she wrote. “So my classroom became a salon. I refused to let her leave school today the same way she came.”

Articles also say When she finished, she says the little girl took a look at herself and said, “aww, so pretty” at the sight of her new ‘do.

*sigh* I'm not upset with the teacher for doing the child's hair. I don't know why the child came to school with unruly hair. Her parent may have arthritis. My mother does and that is why I wore my hair in one ponytail most days going to school until 5th grade. The child might be "tender headed" and the parent just could Not deal with it this morning. The child could have been in a fight before school. The teacher didn't give her a relaxer and change the texture, I'm okay. Unlike the popular reasons for talking about this classroom situation, that's what I am going to speak on.

I'm not okay with her posting her deed to social media. I said it on Twitter. As far as I am concerned, she is as bad as anyone who knew the child was walking around with uncombed, lint filled, did nothing, and talk bad about the child. My problem is she still had something to say, publicly. If she was going to do a good deed, do the deed, and Shut Up. What if it was a parent that was not physically able to comb the childs hair. See your child's hair combed, Thanked the teacher and find out she had all this to say. Now a whole huh bub could be started because of the posts tone.. If the teacher's intent was to make the child look nice, then just let it be so. Whether it was on a private page or not someone saw it and it's being talked about. The teacher, the child's hair and the parent(s) are being talked about. Should it have been.

Alright, on my way to talk about the Teacher and the hair deed, I came across this article, "Woman’s Instagram Post Proves Men Are Lying When They Claim to be “Too Big for Condoms”.
Yes, a popular Swedish singer Zara Larsson went on Instagram and proved to men and women that a condom will fit every man's penis.
This time last year y'all were doing it for the Vine, this lady is doing it for the 'Gram. LoL I get it. Maybe that will help someone tell a guy with lie that they won't be having sex with them. Safe Sex or No Sex. But she felt that needed to turn to social media to get the point across. WoW Is it me or did you think about latex knee highs when you saw this? LoL

I told y'all last year I learned that, Pettiness is subjective. With the invention of this big party called social media, no subject is off limits. Pop Culture mixes the punch bowls. It is up to us whether we are going to drink from them or not. It is up to us to decide how much we drink. I just want people to drink of the punch responsibly. Be mindful that just like you felt like you should talk about something in your way somebody else might feel they can talk about your way of talking about that same topic. Is it worth it?
