Fave reader: Michella

Hello My name is Michella Minter. I read your blog from time to time and from what I can tell, recently you've been going through something. Whatever it is you're going through allowed to define the feelings I had  about my own situation. I'm a spoken word poet and I hadn't written in a while you helped me to understand my problem enough to write about it and release my anxe. Thank You! Here is the piece.

I wanna Be Supportive,I do

Be that gets super hard when you're really going through

.....I'm Trippin 

The situation we had, I interpreted it Different

I must be hard to listen

Even Harder to Care

Damn near impossible to pretend that you're aware

I-Dont-Even- Care that I'm verging on passive aggressive

It's not fair that you got everything you needed to get to where you wanted to be

And none of that, had anything to do wit me

I said you hurt my feelings

I lied

What really caught the beating was the depths of my pride

and it'd be different, if in this, I didn't feel so alone

If anyone agreed 

If I knew anyone who felt the same way as me

Instead you're perfect, everyone thinks your great

I'm the one who's crazy is the card you wanna play

No I'm the one you forgot

I'm the one you left

I'm the one who thought there was a meaning to this mess

Woke up found you leaning to the left 

Just about as liberal with my buisness as the day

That's a game I can't play

In the end I prolly did the most

I prolly hurt the feelings of somebody that was close

Tragic

I can't be only person excepting responsibility for my actions

I can't listen to you tell me, what I feeling is wrong

Refusing to admit fault

Instead of searching for reasons the you're right

You could probaly, Just, APOLOGIZE! 

Thank you Michella!!!

Missing the good ol (sex) days

Hey Neb!
I sooooo have a question! Okay, I am in a relationship things are goin well except in one aspect: the sex isn't what it used to be! Its just a wam bam thank you ma'am type thing. =( A girl has needs and I don't wanna step outside my relationship but what de hell do I do!? Cause there are plenty a guys I know that can take care of that glitch if he won't! (Wrong I know) Lol I tried to talk about it but he became defensive so I don't know! How should I go about this and improve our sex life?

Hi Miss J. Rabbit (lol)

Man oh man, i have been in a comparable state before, with my FIRST boyfriend, after being together for more than a year the sex became a routine and I just couldn't handle that, I never spoke about it tho, I just got turned off as time went on and we eventually broke up. Whoever said that sex is NOT significant is clearly buggin out cuz
Dreadful sex + Time= A breakup waiting to happen.
I am not telling you to break up with him because as I got older I would almost certainly have handled that connection a tad bit differently. What I would do if I was you is take charge, if you want things done differently sometimes you have to make it happen on your own. Switch it up on his ass, play dress up, cuff him, blindfold him, show him while telling him what you want ;)
OH! You know what helps and makes couples do kinky things?!?? WINE!!!! I’m not sure if you're a drinker but a few glass of wines.....and yea...
In conclusion, don't make it HIS responsibility to feel the need to change things up and keep YOU pleased because what if he is feeling the same way??? Take the lead and play boss for a change, you might bring out his freaky side.

DEAR SEGMENT FEMALES

As a fave reader I know you guys like to keep your nail game a 10. So I have to ask you guys one question. Would you rather go to a salon or have the salon come to you? So the business idea would be something like you book your appointment and instead of trekkin' to the salon, an esthetician comes to your crib. Something like a 'delivery' nail service. I been asking several girls and have been getting mixed responses. What do you guys think? Would you mess w/ somethin' like that?

Signed,
Nadine 'I read the segment more than daily news' Aires

My answer: Depends on the price/service if its 4 times more expensive to have them come to ME....i'm going to THEM. The idea is great for the girl that is too busy and on the go and needs everything to come to her. I would prob. mess with it once in a while.

:)

Fave Reader: Craig

Nebby/Kenza/Andy, what's the word? I just stumbled on onto your blog and you guys have some crazy stuff on there - and I also see that your style game is correct. With that in mind, I'm working on a swap meet called reFresh for Less - it's going down on Sunday Sept 13. (See attached flyers.)

Hope that you'll come out, maybe even as vendor! I'd also like to request that you post our event on your blog, if you feel that the vibe fits.

Hit me up sometime,

Craig Cal

Dear Craig,

I SO CO-SIGN AND I AM THERE!!!!!! i have sooo much to get rid of, maybe i should sell? who knows.

DAMN! AGREEDDDDDDDD

Fave Reader: Confused

Ok, this is on some I need your advice tip. My mother had a bad marriage with my pops and I was 9 when the divorce went down. Now Im 20 and my sister is going through MAJOR marriage problems... do you think that that is a reason to be turned off marriage or...

Signed...
CONFUSED.


Confused,

I was around a whole lot of divorce/getting back together/divorce/still living together/seperation from when i was 5 until i completely seperated my self from it at age 21. it can be a very unfortunate situation to go through and no one can understand it unless they themselves have gone through something similar. I went through a phase where; because of my father, HATED men and disrespected them and until this day I still have relationship/trust/love issues when it comes to men.
Even though the things that a person experienced show up again in their own life, I have been told to take it as a lesson, to try to do better and even switch up the cycle. it's so much easier said than done of course but it's def. worth a shot.
Your sister's marriage problems could be due to issues SHE hasn't completely dealt with/chapters that have never been closed, orrr.... it could be that it's just what it is...problems but she needs to realize that it is up to her and whether she wants to fix things and move on orr......blame it on the past, pointing fingers is always the easiest way out and to be completely honest this is def. something I, myself continue to work on, it's better to take experiences as lessons and to just keep it moving. Hope all works out.

Lol Nebby I was listening to Nicki Minaj's Beam Me Up Scotty Mixtape the other day and the song Shopaholic featuring Gucci Mane (Yeeeeaaaaahh) reminded me of you especially the first verse, he takes you to Morroco!

It just reminds me of you to a tee! (Expect I'm guessing you are more independent)

First verse:
I gotta shoppin' problem
She gotta shoppin' problem
I'm a compulsive shopper
So I'm a cop her prada
I'm a ice her outta
Make ya talk about her
She got this thang about her
Yea she a sexy walker

We shoppin' in Morroco
I took her to Dubai
Lil' mama stupid fly
So tell me watcha like
Because I like to buy
My money stupid fat
His money on a diet
Ten stacks to keep her quiet
I make her call me daddy
Yea there go daddy baby
And she loves daddy cause
Daddy gone keep dem hatin'
Yea they hatin baby
They wanna trade places
I call her sexy lady
She call me gucci baby


No offence intended
xxo

I LOVE IT THANKS NATALIE!!!

"Ok so hella random but this is fav reader lexx. I see that you lightnd your hurrr that was once upon a time black. How you get it to lightn up? I have been tryn for the longest at home on my own of course lol. Any ideas? Thanks hella! Xoxo lexx Sent from my Verizon Wireless BlackBerry" Hey Lexx! I have actually been asked this question a lot, I was coloring my hair with black (jet black) dye all the time and when i wanted to go light i stopped coloring my hair for about 3 months, i wanted to do it myself but with the horrible experiences i have had before i said no way I'm just going to ruin it. I went to the hair salon, sat for a consultation and the hair dresser said "NO WAY sorry your hair is dyed JET BLACK with the box color there is NO WAY we can lift it to light brown PLUS it's damaged" I told her i knew my hair and if she did not want to do it i would simply go to shoppers, grab bleach, bleach my hair and come back to beg her to fix it when its all orange and patched up, she actually believed me and agreed to try to lift it. She stripped the color, meaning she lifted it and the highest level she could lift it to was a brown, it wasn't a LIGHT brown but it was a chocolate brown, not black at least, then i asked her to put A LOT of highlights so that its brighter/lighter to show more, so basically my base is a chocolate brown and its full of blonde highlights and TADAAAA you get this. (Extensions not included lol) I spent about $150, i just went to a hair salon at the mall, but if you reaaaaaaaaally want to do it at home which i DO NOT suggest you do, you get someone to do it for you at home, buy bleach put it in your hair and have them WATCH it like a hawk to make sure the color lifts a lil (prob 5-7 min) wash then (wait about 48hrs) to highlight, it will damage the shit out of your hair so i really think it's best to go to the hairdresser. HOPE THAT HELPED!!! xoxo, Neb

"Hey Neb, Andy, & Kenza!
Okay so I been a faithful reader for like ever. And I read the segment like daily, more than my own blog! But look I checked the Segment last night before I went to bed and keep in mind im like almost 5 pregnant, and anyways I had went to sleep and had the craziest dream about the segment!! (They say pregnancy makes you have the most bizarre dreams, by the way). Like we, as in Kenza & Neb all lived in the same apartment complex right and for some reason y'all were talkin about how jacked up my eyebrows were (idk man, maybe I shouldn't of had pork before bed maybe dream crazy). *Disclaimer; my eyebrows aint jacked up* Anyways, we were in a gang but we didn't have a name but we wore red and we weren't bloods ::scratches head:: and we got to fighting at the park. We was jumping fences and shinkin folks and then I WOKE THE HELL UP! It was all a dream of course, but I expected to see y'all when I walked out my house the next morning!

You guys must know this blog is the SHiT when people go to bed dreaming bout it. Much Love!

LMAO this had me dying! but all jokes aside, i have CRAZY dreams more than normal ppl. so my mama got me a dream dictionary which i run to whenever i wake up after a crazy dream and look up the meaning to the things i have dreamt about. Ok Jae i did a lil research for you and looked up the main things you saw in your dream.

Eyebrows
To notice eyebrows in your dream, represents expressions of amazement, disbelief, surprise, or doubt. It may also indicate concern or disapproval.
Gang
To dream that you are a gang member, signifies your need to achieve and accomplish things through force and intimidation. The dream draws attention to the primitive, unruly aspect of yourself.

To dream that you are confronted or threatened by a gang (Clearly not us cuz we was doing the threatening), signifies circumstances or situations in your waking life that are becoming overwhelming. You feel that you are being ganged up on.

Thanks for being one of our Fave readers! Did i say i loved our readers already?! cuz i do! even the hating anonymous ones that stumble up on here once in a while ;)

"Hey Andy, Kenza and Neb

Hope you are all okay and that good stuff but I just have a quick question for Andy:

Seeing as you just got the Canon Powershot SD 880, how would you rate it? Like a review, I'm thinking of buying that or the Sony Cybershot T700 and I was wondering if I could get your input it would be greatly appreciated

Thanks for reading

Natalie

PS - Nebby you haven't been neglecting the blog, you're a person you got stuff to do! Still love The Segment and check it all the time, it's about quality not quantity

"How come, no more anonymous posting ? what if i have no blogspot, or any of those other live journal, AIM thingies? i have opinions to share! lol

sincerely,

anonymiss"

I say:

I took the anonymous feature off because i received a childish/rude/unnecessary comment from an anonymous person so i decided to take off the anonymous option, a couple of days ago i researched the IP address and i know exactly who it is, i wont share that info with anyone not even my close ones so instead of cussing and calling them out, i decided to keep the info on lock and keep it moving, but i did miss what Anonymiss (who i know the real name to now) had to say about different posts so i'm going to say I VOTED AND THE ANONYMOUS OPTION IS BACK!

xoxo,
Enjoy

We got this email from Dana:

Fave Reader: Nicki

Dear Nebby, Kenza and Andy,

Your blog keeps me going throughout the day! You guys all got jokes and I literally laugh out loud when you guys post something funny! I read it religiously...about 4-5 times a day...more if I'm just chillin at home. You guys are a creative bunch of individuals and I'm glad that I have The Segment in my life ;)
With that being said, I know Nebby loves sharing so I'm gonna share something with you guys. If you are ever feeling down, or life is just kicking you hard in the ass, always remember if could be worst. Check out this website http://www.fmylife.com/ and you'll see what I mean. Here's a couple examples:

-Today, I tasted the rainbow. By that, I mean a homeless man hit me in the face with a bag of Skittles for not giving him money. FML

-Today, my tampon string was hanging from my bathing suit. My boyfriend thought it was a thread hanging from my bikini bottom. He publicly pulled out my tampon. FML

Enjoy!! :)

-Nicki-

LMAO!!! thank you so much Nicki!!

Fave Reader- Lexx
