Sesame Street understands where I'm coming from =):. How cool is that? Some undergrad with too much time on their hands should go ahead and mash this up with Willow Smith's " Whip My Hair.

Generalize This: 141. Black Girl Drama
http://generalizethis.blogspot.com/2010/10/141-black-girl-drama.html
A little bit of this, a little bit of that. Wednesday, October 6, 2010. 141 Black Girl Drama. If there's a more integral and stressful part of a little black girl's identity than her hair, I don't know what it is. Hair care should be added to the list of lessons black girls get when they hit puberty. By third grade I was wishing my mother would let me do my own hair. I was out of college before I actually figured out how. October 7, 2010 at 9:54 AM. I had to send that pic to my sister! Ta-Nehisi Coates :...

Generalize This: 143. The Basics: Flats
http://generalizethis.blogspot.com/2010/10/143-basics-flats.html
A little bit of this, a little bit of that. Saturday, October 9, 2010. 143 The Basics: Flats. I don't have all the details yet, but there's been some serious deal-making going on in the world of women's shoes. As best as I can tell, at some point in the last 2-3 years a meeting was held. A bunch of women got together with American shoemakers and they all agreed that women under 40 would wear boots, and only boots, from fall thru spring for the foreseeable future. Can I get some oxfords? Boooooo to you all.

Generalize This: April 2010
http://generalizethis.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
A little bit of this, a little bit of that. Friday, April 30, 2010. 13 Love and Pain. I have a history of abusive relationships. First with the City of Chicago. It brutalizes me for 5 months every year, and every year I say I'm going to leave. Then come July it smiles that smile at me, I forget I was ever mad. The latest thing I "have" to have is a $600 fish-eye lens. I mean how am I supposed to take super-cool pictures without it? Then there's this $350 portrait lens. 12 Gone With The Wind. When I made ...

Generalize This: June 2010
http://generalizethis.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
A little bit of this, a little bit of that. Wednesday, June 16, 2010. 78 Dippin and Dabblin on Oscar Grant. Nope, I'm not back. Still on a blogging vacay. But I came across a post. On the murder trial for the cop who shot Oscar Grant in California and I wanted to comment. Ever since news came that Johan Mehserle would be charged with murder, and not manslaughter, I've been really pessimistic about the outcome. Of the incident he immediately raises his hands to his head in full-on "What did I just do?

Generalize This: 142. Mix-n-Match
http://generalizethis.blogspot.com/2010/10/142-mix-n-match.html
A little bit of this, a little bit of that. Friday, October 8, 2010. This is another element of style I really struggle with. First of all, this chic is fabulous. You may disagree, and I wouldn't argue with you. But for yours truly, she is the epitome of casual, comfortable, I-Could-Get-Dressed-In-The-Dark-And-Somehow-I-Would-Still-Be-Fly style.

Generalize This: 144. Abort This.
http://generalizethis.blogspot.com/2010/10/144-abort-this.html
A little bit of this, a little bit of that. Monday, October 11, 2010. I was getting ready to do a post on my new veggie lifestyle when I decided to peruse my blogroll before I started writing. I was two-thirds of the way through when I came across a Slate post. On feminism. The teaser said "Nora Ephron Defines Feminism in a Single Sentence." How could I not click on that? And so I did. The piece actually includes short essays from five different women. I never got past the second one. From Ms. Ephron:.

Generalize This: July 2010
http://generalizethis.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
A little bit of this, a little bit of that. Friday, July 30, 2010. 87 " I'm not a smart man.". My first year of college, when I would call home, my mother had a habit of asking "So. do you have a boyfriend yet? Is to crave the beloved. All day, every day. To eat, sleep, and dream him. But I know what Love is.". Thursday, July 29, 2010. Am I the only one getting an endless stream of 50% off coupons in the (e-)mail? Banana Republic (where I've invested considerable amounts of disposable income) used to hav...
