Redd Rants: Trayvon Martin

Trayvon Martin. Now, as many of you may know, Trayvon Martin is the 17 year old boy who resided in Florida, who was shot to death by neighborhood watchmen George Zimmerman, for looking "suspicious". Zimmerman claimed to have done this in self defense, even though Trayvon was only carrying a bag of Skittles and Iced Tea. Now...

Trayvon Martin was probably looking suspicious for only two reasons: 1. Because he was wearing a hoodie, and 2. The most important reason, he was Black.

"But he bought me..." -When Guys use Gifts as Compensation.

Don't get me wrong, Reddlipstick Readers, every girl loves to be spoiled by their man every once in a while, I know I do. Whether it be by jewelry, flowers, clothes, purses, whatever that little guilty materialistic pleasure of yours is, it's always nice to receive them from your significant as a token of appreciation for his girl, right?
Of course, here comes the big butt. There are a lot of guys out their with great girlfriends that go out of their way to buy the mall out for their lady. And that is GREAT, FABULOUS, AMAZING. Unless... (and be careful with this one)
It could a cover up. Otherwise known as gifts for compensation. But, compensating for what? --Bitter females are going to have a field day with this post lol--

Why Twitter isn't as fun as it used to be.

Once upon a time, Twitter was just a cute little social network just like all the others, that was hard to figure out, not many people had, or wanted it, and you visited the site at the most, 3 times a day.

You Know, back when it was fun?

Over time, just as most social networks do, Twitter began to lose it's appeal. Well, maybe it's just me. But after I got into one too many Twitter arguments or got pissed off at too many subtweets or some girl boosting her own ego, I thought to myself  "Dang, I get upset myself on Twitter more than enjoy myself." But why? My argumenative nature? Partially. But what else?
