Today's show is pre recorded. Y'all know what time y'all don't know. Y'all all suit the don giving them more like the milking bu bus things and its good Steve listening together for ste Please, I don't join by. You gotta use that turn you burn. You gotta turn to turn out, turn got to turn out to turn the water the water. Come come on your baby now, h huh. I shall will a good morning everybody. You're listening to the voice, come off, Come on, y'all dig me now, one and only Steve Harvey got a radio show man. Is God good to me? Unbelievable? Yeah? He is? And and I can only attribute it to one thing. It's just been a turnaround in my life. It's it's been me finally making a decision to see what all God has from me, but at the same time trying to be more God wants me to be instead of more of what I want to be. That's the trade off. You know, you gotta do something now. You know, you know you want God's blessings, you gotta be willing to do something on his behalf. Now. I'm not saying I got it right right now, because I'm just being real with you. I don't. I don't have it all together by any stretch of imagination of I'm trying to get better in several areas. I'm praying about it, I'm working on it. But you know, it's a process, and I've I've grown to accept the process. But I'm improving in a lot of areas from day to day. But I'll tell you what, man, my success all is going on with me I can only attribute to this turnaround. And the turnaround was simple. I turned around and started looking at God. That was a simple move. Man. I just turned around and started looking at him, and I was going, Okay, I get it. Now, you created me. You're the creator. You have a purpose for me. I understand that. Now. Now let me just walk in that purpose and let me get to doing that purpose. Now, my purpose and your purpose, and their purpose and anybody's perfect purpose could be different, and the way you go about the purpose can be different. And that's the part that I've really grown up to. I've opened up my mind to understanding that everybody's different, nobody's quite the same, and that is not my right or position to judge, but to be of a forgiving spirit and understand and forgive those as I ask God to forgive me. See that's the key. That's the key, y'all. So when you out here and you stuck on this unforgiveness, understand in the large prayer as a segment that says, forgive us our trust passes, as we forgive those who trust pass against us. There's another version says forgive us our debts as we forgive our debt us. It's two different versions, but either one it means the exact same thing. It means simply this, that you are asking God to forgive yours like you forgive others. Forgive us our trust passes as we forgive those who trust pass against us when I crossed the line with you, God handle me the way I handle people when they cross the line with me. You feel what I'm saying to you, See you understand that. That's the break down of it. Best way I can give it to you. Forgive us our trust passes as we forgive those who trust pass against us. Forgive me God for stepping over the line, like I forgive those that step over the line on me. That's the hard part, man, that's the part man. I've really been working on. I've been really trying to get that together, and so I've learned forgiveness a lot better over the past five years than I have before, and it's paid off. I can't tell you how I was paid off, because now God's mercy and grace is all over me, because I've learned to become more graceful. Now I ain't graceful like him, I ain't merciful like him, but I've learned to become more more graceful, more merciful, because man, I can't live my life like that. I just got sick of me. Man, you're mad at me, now I'm mad at you. You hate on me, Now I'm gonna hate on you. I ain't got time for that, man, I've got you. Look here, you got somewhere to go. Hate take up time. It's time consuming, and hating trying to seek revenge it's time consuming. It take up way too much of your time to seek revenge when vengeance ain't really yours. That's another one. Vengeance is mine, say if the Lord it ain't yours. So now when you go to seek it to take it out, guess what you're doing. You're doing something now, man, Now you off in the area that you got no business being in. And instead of steady climbing your ladder like you're supposed to, you didn't take out time for vengeance to hate. I'm a hater. I'm gonna be a blogger. I'm a blog about so and so. When you're blogging about somebody, and most of these people you don't even know when you're blogging about somebody, what you're doing, what you're hating. It takes time to hate. Man. I just decided, Man, I gotta take all my time and instead of have doing time and being active, I got to be proactive. See some people get that confused being active and being proactive. Pro is positive. Pro means to move forward. You know, if you put pro in front of most words, it's a positive influence. You know, does the pros and the cons. The pros is the good side, the cons is what can go wrong the bad side. You know, if you're active, that's one thing, But if you're pro active, you're going forward in a positive direction. When you become a pro that means you the best of the best at whatever it is you chosen to be. I'm a pro so somehow, and I know English teacher a grammatical god. The word pro a lot of times when you put it in front of something, means positiveness. So now a lot of people think that if you just active something all to happen. Well, I'm doing something, and that's what happens. Man, We just find ourselves doing a lot of busy work that really ain't bout nothing. It ain't going the way. It ain't got no direction or no purpose because we haven't tried to find out the direction of a purpose. So you wake up and you and your wheels are spinning. You a hamster on a tread meal. You're running real fast, but you're just going in the same spot. You understand that's because you're just out here being active instead of proactive. Why don't you get God in your life. Why don't you turn and face your creative and find out how to become more proactive so you can do things to move yourself forward. How you can get your life off the ground and get off the tread meal and really get it rolling in the direction that it need to be going. Man, I'm telling you, God can make that change for you if he see you making the change for him. See the whole key, man, the whole kids. You got to be willing to do something. You got to give God something to bless bless me God, and then you go sit on your couch and you ain't trying. Okay, bless me God with what? What? What? What are working with? He can't have the people hire you if you ain't put the app in. Come on, man, the blessing comes when you make a proactive step, when you try to do something on the positive side. Look, man, I'm gonna quit messing around with all these people. I'm gonna start going home. I'm gonna leave these women loan out here. You got to say, all right, man, I ain't going over that at night. I just ain't gonna get Then God can work with you. God help me stop seeing all these women. But you steady going over there calling them setting up stuff. We can't nobody help you because once you get over there, you already know. See, you gotta get proactive. You gotta do something yourself. You make one step, he'll make two. That that's the key, man. So come on, y'all. You're listening, ladies, gentlemen, everybody listening. I need your attention for this simple, very simple, but factual announcement Today is the day that the Lord has made. Let us rejoice and be glad in it. It's a very simple scripture. It means so much to me. I would invite you to just do the same. It is a deal. Today is all we really have. The past belongs to history, the future belongs to God. We have today. You should rejoice and be glad in it because this is yours. That's why they call it the present, because it's an unwrapped gift. It's the present, It's yours. This is ours. Let's get in. Welcome to the Steve Harper Martins Show. Charley Strawberry caller Forever Mississippi Monica Junior Better noticed his face at the legend of Nephew Tommy yours truly, Junior, What boy? I tell you?

I got paid in Arkansas one night and we were performing at this comedy club that was upstairs on the second floor had a bar in it. I kind of stayed till the show was over, talking to some of the bartenders and waitresses. And I put my little cash in a bag, which was seven hundred and fifty dollars, and I'm walking because I could walk across the street to the condo that they let the comedian stay in. And I come downstairs and I'm walking across the parking lot and this dude runs up behind me and grabbed me from behind. And I kind of turned that I could see the waitresses upstairs on the balcony what I had just left, and they was talking and laughing. So I thought it was one of the little bartenders playing, you know how they play. I don't really play like that, you know how how he I go along with it. But a pickup truck he grabs me from behind. It was kind of tight, but I said, okay, that's how he's trying to play. He wasn't strong enough to toss me, but he was holding me. A pickup truck pulls up right in front of me, and the dude jumps out of the truck and it's charging at me. Now right then the hood in me goes off. Yeah. I don't know if they still playing, but it don't look like playing to me, So I'm gonna act like it ain't no play game no more.

He makes more money than I do, and he's more established than I am because he used to play a pro sport. Now my parents think all athletes are flawed and that I can do a lot better. He wants to meet them. But I'm skeptical. What do I do well? All athletes are flawed, all entertainers of flawed, all ministers of flawed. Welcome to humanity. So I don't know who you're mama thing. What she's doing is she's grouping them in the group with everybody else, but everybody the banker is flawed. Everybody's flawed. If the man is treating you well and living up to your expectations and exceeding them, let me let me tell you something, ladies, be very careful in the beginning of a relationship when a man meets your expectations and is not exceeding them, Because what that's because in the beginning he's running that max capacity. So if he's doing just enough to meet your expectation and not over exceeding them, that when the drop off come, it may not be enough for you. So just be conscious of that. So, if this man you're dating is meeting your expectations and exceeding a few of them, you may have something. If you just getting to the tape in a minute, he ain't gonna get to the tape. To drop off is real. To drop off is real? All right, fellow starting off with a bang here Joe Anne and Arizona says, I have eight grandchildren by my only son, and I want him to stop populating the planet and grow up. I hate to do my own grandchildren dirty, but I'm not keeping any of them when it's his weekend to be a parent. How do I get this man to live up to his responsibilities before his children grow up resenting him? Wow? Well, just do like that. Don't help him on his weekend. It's eight of them. Did he get all eight of them on the same dayn weekend? He just got kids every weekend? Seemed like me, Are you to work it out with eight baby mamas? Get him on the same week so every weekend his baby weekend for him? Yeah, she says, I'm not keeping any of them. Well you're not keeping them then fine, then don't you made your decision? Man? That's it. Don't keep the grandkids. But also keep in mind, it ain't the grandkids fault that they don't know their grandmama. Because you're trying to teach him a lesson. You may inadvertently be teaching them a lesson. Grandparents ain't worth for damn. Oh wow. This then turned on heart. Wow. Yeah, well, but you're right, it's not the baby's fault. It's not the baby's faults. I understand her trying to teach him a lesson. At the same time, the grandchildren don't get to meet their grandparents yet. I mean, what kind of deal is that? Yeah? All right? Moving on to Stephanie in Pensacola. Stephanie writes, I'm a forty seven year old married woman and I had a crush on our lawn guy.

Coming up at the top of the hour, we'll have some entertainment news for you right after this. You're listening well. J Pickett Smith has finally addressed the horrific Oscar slap, but rather than apologizing, Jada said Chris Rock and her husband Will Smith both have to set aside their differences. She opened up the latest episode of The Red Table talk with this about Oscar night. A deepest hope is that these two intelligent, capable men have an opportunity to heal, talk this out, and reconcile. The state of the world today we need them both and we all actually need one another more than ever. Until then, Well and I are continuing to do what we have done for the last twenty eight years, and let's keep figuring out this thing called life together. What you've been doing the last year, a few years, getting on our damn there there? Yeah, she was there, the reason why I jumped out. Now you want a reason with it? Yeah, now you got a solution the next years? What do you say? Nothing about her? Nothing? I'm I'm, I'm I'm. I'm completely confused because this miss Smith was not just between these two men. The cause and effect was sitting there in a green dress. See, you can't what they need a chance to heal, talk and reconcile. Okay, what's stopping from will for going over the apologizing to the man. See, if you want to heal, start with an apply, If you want to talk, call the man up. If you want to Recordcide going over there. This this move is on Will. Will initiated the whole thing. We all got about his seat and went up there and slap that man. What you want Chris Rock to do? And it wasn't just between those two men. We need them both, Damn. I got news for you. We need we need them two men, but we need more powerful, strong women. We need people to own up face the end of whatever it is that's dealing with going on out there. You need to understand your contribution. This isn't just between Will and Chris. There's a cause and effect behind this. I just think the statement is full of air. I don't see. I don't see does nothing. I don't need no more table talk. I don't need a table talk with dresser, nice man couch talk. I don't need nothing. I don't dinner table. I don't need number chef talk. I don't need no more talk. I don't, I don't. I don't care whatever furniture you pick. I don't want to talk there with you. I don't well whatever furniture your dresser condemns would die man, I don't want to talk with you, Okay, talk with you. I don't you know what would help? I think if Jada would start with, I want to apologize for any role I played in this, because if I misunderstood the joke as it was intended, maybe I was at fault for thinking you would referring to my alopecia when you had nothing to do with that. So it would it would go a long way if she would go you know what, I'm partly to blame for this because I misunderstood where you were coming from. Chris. That would start, because that's that's the core of it. And then the next thing would be he would up there and apologize to the Academy. You didn't slap the Academy. You slapped Chris. Yeah, Black America. Yeah, I mean her whole take, you know, just like it is to us. It was a shocker to her fans who still feel that. Will really owe Chris a face to face apology or at least a personal conversation where he apologizes for it slapping him. Period. He hasn't done that face to face, you know, he just hasn't done it. He did a blanket statement abroad apology, but um, no face. Your wife laughed being changed her mind. You laughed, Will and then changed your mind. And then after you changed your mind. You went up there and slapped the man. All of the apologies got to come from the smith's side. What did Chris do his job? Yeah? Right, it's all I mean, you know, that's all it is, man, this little master only while she still so what she bring it up? Well, but I guess people want her to address it maybe, Okay, okay, new season of talk. I got, y'all. What did she say though? What did did she say that had any Did you let me ask you all this money? Because maybe I'm missing something? What was the takeaway from what she said? The takeaway that she addressed it in a public setting on her show, on her Turns and then she also had guests, um uh talking about alopecia. Alopecia. Yeah, yeah, so it was it's a new season of Red Table Talk, yes time takeaway Yeah huh yes, yeah, that part was in there about alopecia. She did a show because I guess she was trying to bring awareness for alopecia as well, because a lot of people didn't know what it was until it came up about her. But yeah, um, the takeaway was that she didn't even have to say that, she just do your regular show. She didn't even have to say anything addressed her rid of this table, damn table man? Why as we talking that? It's our ways? Some drama at this table? Stop? We're talking in where is Will? By the way, where is he is? He's still an Indian somewhere. We're having vision steals and trying to get his life together. So there you have it. Uh, you know, do we have time for music news, Carla? No, we don't. The bet Award nominations are out. We'll talk about it later on and if we can. Okay, all right, thank you. Coming up at twenty minutes after the hour, Tommy has a question for you, Uncle Steve. We'll get to that right after this. You're listening, all right, So Temmy, you have something on your mind you wanted to deal with this morning? What's go? I want to deal with it because I'm having some nightmare's Uncle Steve. It's it's hard out here in these comedy streets. You understand them saying it's hard out here. I got a show coming up Columbia side Carolina. Last night I had a dream that my opening act went on stage talked about me for thirty minutes. I mean, just when out then just talked about me so bad, me, my family and everybody. And then when I come out on stage, I don't know why, but TI I tell who I love as a rapper. He then started heckling me. So this is just a nightmare from hell as a comedian. And then towards the end of my set, somebody run up on my stage and try to slap the hell out of me. I'm just trying to ask you, as a comedian, what am I opposed to do? Man, I don't know what to do. It's hard. I hear comedy streets. Well, the clinical answer that I'm about to get you is that I'm about to give you is you should seek some form of therapy, because mental illness is real. Also, keep in mind that everyone has the rights of freedom of speech and those three things I want to throw to you therapy. I want you to keep in mind freedom of speech and what we're going when I told you, and mental illness is real. Now that being said, that's what I want you to handle it. Now. As your uncle, here we go. When you see his punk ass that was on stage talking about you, put your foot dead square off in the dark side of his real hand. Okay, that little center point that retain that starts getting when it get hot outside of getting moist. That's that's for him, and said, don't where about me, Shirley and Carl. Let's stop all the looks off your face. I'm talking to my nephew. The second one you said was these hecklers. Yeah, hang the ass to the wall. Oh you want to be in the show, Here we go. And then thirdly to the person that walks up on stage and slap you. From now on as a comedian, start all your performances with your weight on your back leg. Put your right leg behind you and put your weight on it. Lean back with that weight on your right leg. Tell all your jokes with your weight back on that right leg. Case anybody run up, you already in the cock position. Top knock they smooth rats, right on out, right down. We told you coming up, coming up. Thirty four minutes after the hour, we'll have more of the Steve Harvey Morning Show right after this. You're listening to the sty Show. Today is National Gun Violence Awareness Day. It is observed on the first Friday in June and kicks off where Orange Weekend? Why where Orange? You? Ask? Well? On January twenty first of twenty thirteen, a teenage black girl named Hadaiah Pendleton marched in President Obama's second inaugural parade. One week later, Hadaiah was shot and killed on a playground in Chicago. Well soon after her death, Hadiah's friends commemorated her life by wearing orange, the color hunters were in the woods. This is a color that they wear in the woods, hunters to protect themselves from being shot. Where orange again on June second, twenty fifteen, on what would have been Hadaiah's eighteenth birthday. We should not have to live in fear. I mean, we all know this. We should not have to live in fear that gunfire can ring out at any moment. But unfortunately, that is the world in which we live right now. Whether it's at an elementary school and you've all day Texas, at a supermarket in Buffalo, at a party in San Bernardino, at graduations across the country, are most recently, at a hospital in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Wow, Yeah, I mean, you know this is this is this is tough, you know it is. I mean gun violence though, how come we can't get some kind of gun law or form for national gun laws. I just don't understand that this is a normal behavior. All of this gun violence, Carl. What you're saying is the absolute need and the requests of most every American, almost every one of them, especially those who have suffered because of gun violence. The problem is two things. The fifty one senators who refuse to even discuss this because they are controlled by the NRA and their contributions to the party, their position and their power. We got to bring them down, dog got to go down. Good luck, good luck. Well, a lot of people are trying, Tommy. The problem is it's what this country is based on power and money, and whoever has the power in the money, they all back down, and degree that's who's in charge. Because the crux of this country is built on power and money, and they don't care how they do it. You get power by going to get yourself some slaves, so that gives you power because you have dominion over them because they're slaves. Well, guess what that produces a lot more money. So now this country was built right there, right there on that look man, when the pilgrims got off that boat and they were over that dying, that first winner and the Native Americans saved them, and I know they got to look back on that saving go maybe we should just put them back on the boat, gave them a couple of blankets and put them back on the boat. But they allowed them to come here, and they came here and they took everything from them. So you're dealing with a system that's that's broken. We have a broken system, and it's really it's horrible, man. And no, no, only people that the voters could fix it. The voters could fix this by saying, I don't care how much the NIA gives you, I don't care how much they pay you to say this. What you're saying is wrong, and we're gonna vote the other way. The vote could fix this. It really could, man. But but the super slickness of it is they blend this in with the other things, like you heard that pastor they got his license took or whatever that you can't be a Christian and not be Republican or conservative. You can be a Democrat and be a Christian Christian. It's just that's that type of stuff they blended in with that. They blended in with immigration, they blended in with gay rights, they blended in try to make themselves. See they bended in with abortion, they blended in with welfare, all the stuff they do and participate in. Yeah, day at all this man, Yeah, all right, all right, we're gonna move on here and swift gear, change gears, shift gears coming up next to prank call. Phone call with the nephew. Right after this, you're listening to morning show. Coming up at about four minutes after the hour. It's my strawberry letter for today and the subject is my boyfriend puts his friends first. Mkay.

We got it for you here. It is, Thank you, nephew. Subject that my boyfriend puts his friends first. Dear Stephen Shirley, I've been dating a man for almost two years and he has a lot of female friends. I hung out with all of them, and at first I tried to act like a team player, but I see he has no respect for boundaries in this relationship. He has a lot of house parties, or his friends will come over and do impromptu cookouts no matter what we have planned. He drops everything to entertain them. He calls and invites females over to his house whenever he's having a get together. I've told him that his single friends are going to cause him to be a single man too. Fast forward to last weekend and he and I went out Friday night and we didn't make plans for Saturday, so I got up and went to the mall. As I left out, he told me that he wanted to have a cookout, something small. I went to the mall, then home to take a nap, and then to my boyfriend's house. There were new girls there that I had never met, and one of them greeted me as if I as if she was a lady of the house. My boyfriend ran over to intervene because he knows me. Three females were in his kitchen, cooking and making drinks and very comfortable in his home. The cutest one yelled when her song came on, and she ran out to the patio to dance with my man. She told him that was their song from college, and he told her that he played the song just for her. Of course, he said, I was blowing things out of proportion. After I quietly cursed him out in the laundry room, he tried to assure me that they all went to college together and it's innocent. He asked if two of the girls could crash at his house. I said no, and he said he had already told them they could, and he didn't want to be rude. Is this all just innocent fun? Or is he playing me for in my face? Wow, this guy is not your boyfriend. You called him your man and everything, But guess what, he's everybody's man. He's everybody's boyfriend all his college girlfriends. You're not number one in his life. You're not a priority in his life. These women are way too familiar to be considered just his college friends. He had a past with a few of them. You can believe that they're saying things like oh, that's our song and then dancing with him, running out to dance with him on the patio sleeping over and stuff and acting like they're the ladies of the house. They're all in the kitchen when you his supposed girlfriend comes in. They don't even know you, let alone respect you. I mean, you know, yeah, you said you hung out with them, but they don't seem to have a clue who you really are in its life because guess what, he hasn't told him about you. He didn't claim you in front of them when he had a perfect opportunity. Okay, this is not looking good for you and him and this relationship going forward, and you need to let him know that. But of course he will dismiss your feelings and tell you you're blowing things out of proportion. Again, you may as well be one of the random chicks at the barbecue for all it matters, because he's done nothing to show you or them otherwise. After two years, this is what it is. I mean, you're just one of the girls to him. So I suggest to you that you don't waste another second of your time with him and move on. Let him have his female friends. He's not worth it. You deserve to be special to someone, just not him. Steve. I'm amazed. I'm just simply amazed. Hill. I don't know how many times I said on this show, but y'all right, he's led us to this show. You already know what I've said on this topic before. I've said it over and over. I'm assuming that people right into the show because they're fans of the show, and they watch and they listen to the show. And I assume that people write into the Straw Bay Letter because they know that we give out our different takes and advice on these letters. It's not always advice. Sometimes it's just my take. Now, Shelley does between the two of us, try to offer the most advice. I sometimes just give you my take because sometimes I don't think you need advice. I just think you just need to hear your stupid ass letter read back to you. That's how I feel about it. Sometimes. To me, sometimes I just can't be you typed it. You set that way and just took the time out. This letter right here's coming from a person who's obviously listened to the show before. And so now I gotta tell you we've gone over this, So here we go again. My boyfriend puts his friends first. This Stephen Sherley. I've been dating a man for almost two years and he has a lot of female friends. Stop right there, Just go over this line right here. I'm dating a man that has a lot of female friends. I have told you every opportunity I get on this show that men are incapable of having female friends that they have been attracted to or are currently attracted to. We are incapable of that. I ain't gonna tell you no, damn mo. But it looks like I have to tell you again because this is what this ignorant asslet about right here. You don't believe fat meat, greasy, Well, let me put the grease out the pan for you. I hang out with all of them, and at first I try to act like a team player, but I see he has no respect for boundaries in this relationship. You out, ma'am. You know why he don't have no respect for the boundaries in the relationship because you don't have any boundaries. See you, you went along with all of this. You condonted you hang out with all of them. See, you can't put the velvet rope up and then don't expect nobody to step over it. You gotta have barb wire offense if you're serious. But you got a little velvet rope with the clip on it. Anybody take that off. He don't respect the boundaries because you don't have any. When we come back, this is more the same, all right, Steve. We'll have part two of your response coming up at twenty three minutes after the hour Strawberry letter subject my boyfriend puts his friends first. We'll get back into it right after this. You're listening, all right, Come on, Steve, let's recap today's Strawberry letter. My boyfriend puts his friend first. Here's another letter about a woman with a man that has female friends, and it then created a problem. I told Joe over and over and over on this show. See, I don't care if you agree with Uncle Steve. Agree with what I'm saying. Jesus, facts and the proof keep coming in into all these letters. This man has female friends. That ain't what we capable of doing. But okay, let's try. And he has a lot of female friends. I hang out with all of them, So once again, you condone this. At first, I tried to act like a team player, but I see he has no respect for boundaries in this relationship. Once again, he has no boundaries for the relationship because you don't have any boundaries in the relationship. See you remember you said you hang out with all of them. You've been going along with this all right. He has a lot of house parties, and his friends come over and do impromptu cookouts. Okay, So now you got a man that's got some women that can pop by and just start cooking at his house that you're hoping one day becomes y'all's house yellow and they do impromptu cookouts no matter what we have planned. That's interesting. He drops everything to entertain them. Oh you mean he's prioritized these fine female friends over you. Okay, I'm sorry. Maybe I didn't make myself clear about it. He calls and invites females over to his house whenever he's having to get together. I've told him that his single friends are gonna cause him to be a single man too, but it ain't because you still with him. So nice bluff, lady. But he keeps calling your bluff. You know why, because he keeps calling these women and you ain't gonna do a damn thing about it. Fast forward to last weekend, and he and I went out Friday night and we didn't make plans for Saturday. So I got up and went to the mall. As I left out I went, I was told that he wanted to have a cookout, something small. So I went to the mall, then home to take a nap, and then I went over to my boyfriend's house. There were new girls there. Surprised, Why not having some new girls there? You ain't having problem with the old ones. You give me an inch, I take a yard, You give me a little rope. I'm gonna start pulling a lot of boats in with the rope. So now some new girls at the house. Oh, I never met, and one of them greeted me as if she was the lady at the house. She didn't greet you as the lady at the house as she was. She was in her mind at that particular moment, lady in the house. She didn't even know who you was. Hey girl, how are you doing? Welcome? Come on in. We all set up in the back. You look as stupid you at the house taking naps. My boyfriend ran over the intervene because he knows me, know what. No. All he got to do is smooth it over with you, and he gonna make you lick this up and like it too. That's what he know about you. Let me run over here and make her lick this and like this too. And that's just what he did too. Three females were in the kitchen, cooking and making drinks, and very comfortable in his home. That's because they've been there before. The cutest one, yea. When her song came on and she ran to the pattio on the dance with my man, she told him that was the song from college. He told he played that song just for her. How many times I got to tell you we can't be friends with no fine ass women. I told you that now after dancing on the damn patio today, damn song, he played it just for that's our song. Who did you say, ran out there, the cutest one? I told you that ain't what we do. Of course, he said, I was blowing things out of proportion. After I quietly cursed him out in the laund room. See do you do all your business behind closed doors? He in your face, all up front? You do all the cousins in the laund room quietly if you want to. He out on the patio dancing with the music turn up. You see the difference between y'all two, you try to respect him. He ain't got none for you. He tried to show me that they all went to college together, and it was in innocent. They did all go to college together, all up, even the one they had the favorite song they wore screwing. It's not innocent, okay. He asked if two of the girls could crack. He go to Google. He asked two the girls could crash at his house. I said no, He said he already told them they couldn't. He didn't want to be rude. Wait a minute, hold up, what so you don't understand how stupid are you? Lady? Let me ask you just how stupid you are? You are always and after thought, Yeah, y'all can stay over here. Hey, babies, it okay if they stay over here. No, well, I'm already told they could. But because this is his house, it's not y'all's house, he'd have told them they can stay. So now all y'all gonna be in there sleeping together. Wait a minute, you went over, You didn't went along with the cookouts. Let me see if I can press this button a liver. You didn't mind the girls come over, So guess what I got some new girls coming over. You see what I'm saying. I'm gonna keep pressing this button because I'm gonna make you lick it and like it what I'm capable of doing, and you're gonna go along with it. Now here's the question. It's just just all innocent funnels. He played me for a fool in my face. Here's what I want you to do, young lady. I want you to go over to a mirror in your house. I want you to look in that mirror, and I want you to realize something that the face you see is the fool. Might Thank you, Thank you, Tell Marge some girls.

Any Howard Johnson memories and you can share with us all very much. Do have Howard Johnson memories? None that I can put on the radio that on the day I stole the Howard Johnson room before, how did you do that? Well? I saw a maid cleaning the room, and then when she was in that cleaning room, I took a piece of tape and put it on dope to do the dough latch. And so when she came out the room and shut the dough, I stayed in the hallway like I was doing something else talking, and I just went in there and pushed the door open. Stayed in there for about folda before they called me, how did you get a key? What were you doing? I didn't know. Everyone, I'll put tape locks. What were you doing? Tows? And I just be still. She had just cleaned the room, so I just kept I was homeless, so I just need to play stape folded. I was watching TV and the thing. Every time they knocked on the door for room service, I said no, thank you. Then finally the management came up that day for and excuse me, sir, I said no, thank you. No, that won't work. I need you to come to the door, sir, who are you? I said no, thank you, and they left. Now he he stayed. Yeah. While they was talking, I was just packing because you knew shows out on this door. I need to just say, started hitting towards this car Usa Johnson story. Next. Okay, what yeah got planning for this weekend? Oh man, my frat brothers is coming to town to dirty dozen out of side.
