I went to see a movie with this guy. Let&#8217;s call him Mr. Slow. Honestly, he&#8217;s slow. I think he stays on slow motion. The way he talks, the things he says&#8230;goodness! So why did I subject myself to such cruelty? I don&#8217;t know. I wasn&#8217;t thinking anything could come out of our movie event. In fact, the only reason I decided to see the movie was because I wanted a situation with the least amount of talking.<\/p>\n<p>So off we went to see the movie. Everything was going great &#8211; not because of him, but because of the movie. I was enjoying the movie. We got to the end of the movie and some nice romantic song started playing. Can you believe that this dude started singing right along with the song? <strong><span style=\"font-size:180%;color:#6633ff;\">Oh! My! Goodness!<\/span><\/strong> To say that I was humiliated will be an understatement. Why did he have to sing?<\/p>\n<p>On a scale of 1 to 10 (10 being the worst), his voice was like 20. And he wasn&#8217;t even trying to sing under his breath. He was singing out loud confidently. Someone had to have told him that he sounded good. Where else could he have summoned the courage to belch the lyrics of that beautiful song, in spite of sounding like a toad?  Not only did he not know how to sing, he also didn&#8217;t even know the lyrics.  <strong><span style=\"font-size:180%;color:#ff0000;\">Whew!<\/span><\/strong>  Somebori, say it isn&#8217;t so, please.  I was pissed the heck off!<\/p>\n<p>My blood was boiling hot. It was so hot that it was about 10 degrees above hell. Yes, I was <em>that<\/em> pissed off. Pissed off and embarrassed. All I needed was for those White people to vex and start stoning me with their popcorn and fries. If that had happened ehn, Mr. Slow would have known a different side of me. I would have shown him what hot water does to garri.<\/p>\n<p>As if that is not funny enough, he actually thinks we&#8217;re in a relationship. LOL. Where did he get that idea, you ask? Who knows? He and I never had such a conversation. Which kin relationship by default be this one? I don&#8217;t even know how to start laughing anymore. If this is my enemies&#8217; way of getting to me, they have failed! I refuse to be tricked into homicide. Yes, my enemies are trying to make me date someone whom I will surely end up killing, but they have failed. LOL.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Why do I keep doing this 2 myself? I went to see a movie with this guy. Let&#8217;s call him Mr. Slow. Honestly, he&#8217;s slow.
