Homecoming

This was Morehouse & Spelman's Homecoming weekend! It was quite enjoyable. Dat Fuule came down and some other fellow alum attended the tailgatting, game, and alumni partiies. The Morehouse Marching band was quite unimpressive. The game against Albany State wasn't that much better. Both seemed like watching a High School game. But what do you expect. Who won game? Who knows... who cares.

The party that night was adventurous. You guys would be impressed, I was dressed very sharp! Since it was an alumni party, I fit in quite well as everyone else left their ghetto & hoochie gear in the closet. My smile was quickly erased when I felt something wet on back. I turned around quickly, and saw some girl accidently knock a full glass of wine out a guy's hand, onto the back of my clean shirt, down the back of my sharply pressed pants, splattered about my Italian shoes, then glass & wine splattering about the floor. I was wearing about $450 that night, so I think I had a very good reason to be upset. Don't worry, I didn't act a fool. I just tried to clean off as much as I can and tried to salvage the night. The culprits who blessed me with wine never apologized, just stared at me to see what I was going to do. It's OK. I forgave them. I got them back though. When i was staring at them, I mentally pimp slapped the girl for being a clutz, and I body slammed the dude for not being able to hold his liquor.

There was an episode of Living Single. Regine went out to a club and saw someone wearing the same dress as she had on. She then proceed to accidentally bump into that person and spill her drink on the girl.

Perhaps the guy was jealous of your fit. Even if he wasn't I can't stand drunk folks who can't hold their liquor glass. There oughta be a law.

I can see why you'd be offput by getting a glass of liquid spilt over you, and an apology would be the least one could expect. You did say it yourself though, it was an accident... so to call4arms unless you're able to pass a law against that, these things will continue to happen.

It's good to see bourgeois snobbery knows no boundaries :)

My view is that people get drunk on purpose, any act you commit after getting drunk on purpose is not an accident it is reckless. There are laws against reckless behavior. That's why drunk drivers can get reckless manslaughter charges even though they "accidentally" killed the person. There should be a law against drunk clubbers, kick their sorry drunk useless a.. out the club and take their car keys.

Wouldn't it depend on the type of folks you are trying to attract? If you want thugs & chicken headz, spilled drinks, fights... all expected, club will stay open. But I'm looking for that uppity, bougie spot where folks get G'd up, no ignorant shyt going on. I'm sure many will support that business.

Karen- perhaps you've confused some laws. Dimished capacity could be a defense to murder bringing it down to manslaughter, which is why I said drunk driving would yield a manslaughter charge. I do realize that murder requires intent, which is why I labeled the act as reckless.

I hope that at your lovely high class functions, individuals offer some words of apology after causing anothers clothing to be wet and stained.

Perhaps the girl was only clumsy and not drunk, if she was just clumsy, she should have kept her two left feet at home or remained still. If a person knows they possess balance issues they have a duty to do their best not to cause others harm or inconvience, they should learn the word sorry and use it when appropriate. What could be the guys excuse for not saying sorry? I can't fathom not expressing sorrow at something that is a genuine accident.

Are you implying that Pentheus was rational? or just the ancient Greeks? I've enjoyed Greek myths since I was a child, the stories made a lot of sense, but what makes the people so very rational?

It's unfortunate that you don't reason before you respond. You shouldn't make assumptions and then comment based upon those assumptions. (I noticed you did that in a previous Jez Chill comment) You assume I have not EVER committed a clumsy act. Where did that come from? I'll ignore that baseless statement and let you know I always express my regret if someone is harmed by my actions. I would certainly not look at them expectantly.
As far as my "ass" is concerned- that is a chicken head comment. Were you rolling your neck as you typed it?
Regarding your lengthy explanation on the rational Greeks, I've always found that a person who understands something can explain simply and briefly. Your verbosity leads me to believe that perhaps you exceeded your understanding of the subject.
In your reference to sitcoms, are you suggesting that this incident might have been done intentionally? Are you also suggesting it was deserved because JezChill used his outfit to show off?
If we travel down the slippery slope would your theory make it okay for someone to destroy your property because you spent too much on it? Who defines what is too much? Is it part of your rational western civilized thinking to determine that someone's "pretention" justifies an unkind or accidental act commited upon them or their property? Furthermore, as you seem to be keen on the law, wouldn't the contact with his clothing which was on his body merit more than just a property tort, it then becomes a physical tort.
And your last assumption was that JezChill detest chicken head type crowds. When you read these blogs and comments you seem to bring your own negative energy into what you've read and respond accordingly. Take a relax pill and stop being so serious and annoying.
