Survey Says…Steve Fucked Up. But It Is and Isn't His Fault. (It's His Fault.)
Being live is a bitch. Just ask Steve Harvey who managed to fuck up the most important part of the Miss Universe pageant that I’m fairly certain the vast majority of us had no clue was happening. Actually, that’s not true. After every move on Words With Friends, an ad for the show would pop…

John Boyega's Response To White Tears Is The Blackest Thing I've Ever Heard This Week
Earlier this week, while discussing Star Wars: The Force Awakens with my dad, I halfheartedly mentioned that I never was a huge fan of the Star Wars series. I didn’t dislike them or anything.

While I was in Target a couple weeks ago, getting Diaper Genie bags and seeing if the latest issue of EBONY Magazine was there yet, The Wife Person texted me, asking me to pick up some bananas. I usually don’t buy produce at Target; preferring to buy my fruits and meats and veggies at Giant Eagle…

Zack Morris, Religion, and Me
Have you seen Truth Be Told? It’s the new Zack Morris sitcom on NBC in the doomed Friday night slot when all of the people that might watch this show are out doing way cooler shit. It’s not the best show, but it’s also not the worst show, either, but I like Mark-Paul Gosselaar (Zack Morris) and Tone…

Ask Agatha: "I Like Black Women But Hate Fake Hair. What Should I Do???"
Johnny from Atlanta, GA asks: I like black women but I hate the fake hair they wear, all of it, the wigs, the weaves, and the ponytails. It’s definitely a deal breaker for me. I’m a hair puller. So, I wanna know…is there a sure fire way to tell if it’s all hers? So that…

Six Reasons Why Serena's Sportsperson Of The Year Honor Is The Blackest Thing That Ever Happened This Week
1. Because Serena’s cover effectively turned Sports Illustrated into a late-90s King Magazine. My goodness. 2. Fortunately for men currently in relationships with women, Serena Williams also happens to be one of the few women it’s acceptable to, well, openly “appreciate.” (Basically, if you get caught liking an Instagram “model’s” picture, you might catch a sideeye.
