I’m late, I’m blaming Colored People Time on account of the fact that it’s Black History Month (DRINK). I originally titled this  ”I hate that liberal ass white folks feel so much guilt that they feel the need to pander to the ”Darkies” with bunk ass commercials and advertisements every February to assuage their white guilt even though they [...]

Thumbnail image for Depression…. and why is the black community slower to come to grips with it?

It’s Hard to Be: Black, Female, Male, Homosexual, A Parent, A Single Parent, Chronically Ill, young, old, broke, bisexual, homeless, misunderstood, unemployed . . . It’s hard to be alive. It’s also hard to be Black with Mental Health Issues. My parents should have been genetically tested and never been allowed to procreate because they produced [...]

Now that we’re all comfortably ensconced in 2012 please allow me to remind you that …. We’re all gonna die! Don’t blame me, blame the Mayans and their surprisingly accurate system of calendars. On December 21, 2012 the Current Mayan Calendar ends, to the Mayans that just means the end to a “Cycle”, like America’s Next [...]

Chernanigans – Gremlin Stank.

Thumbnail image for Chernanigans – Gremlin Stank.

So I’ve been trying to write this post for weeks, first I was writing about babies, then keeping it real, then gold digging, then turning 30, then having a baby as a gold digger at 30 while keeping it real. None of it flowed forth from my mind, it was too pedestrian, too serious and [...]

I’m sad y’all it’s time for the CherBear to drag the Dating Chernanigans back into her dark cave for winter hibernation. I’m not just CherBear because it rhymes, I’m actually a bear-like creature. I’m highly territorial, fairly solitary and I hibernate in the winter. It’s just me, chocolate, tea and books once there’s snow on [...]

I was gonna tell y’all about the 6 men I’ve met in the last few weeks and about how I had a date last week, but y’all made me wonder about my decision to strictly date black men. I’m open to exploring all the shades of blackness (Jamaicans, Nigerians, Dominicans, Somalians, Cameroonians, Americans), to my [...]

Thumbnail image for My top 10 favorite lies that I’ve heard from men.

  Sadly these are all true and seriously pathetic. 10. I lost/broke my phone. My phone was turned off – The problem with this lie is that it is severely overused. If you’re that guy who might as well have your blackberry implanted in your paynus because those are your two favorite things to touch [...]

I’m about to put myself out there and I understand that there will be criticisms and comments and I hope that I’m prepared. The reason I’m writing this and my other Chernanigans is because no matter what people may admit to or what they say, there’s always someone in the world who can gain some [...]

Single woman Chernanigans- Did she mess up by letting Jerry go?

Thumbnail image for Single woman Chernanigans- Did she mess up by letting Jerry go?

I need the opinions of OHNawlians because I’m worried that I’ve become too picky in life. A while ago I was getting to know a guy (Jerry); I enjoyed our conversations, but I wasn’t really lusting after him. I’m a teeny, tiny bit of a control freak and because I know my area very well [...]

Thumbnail image for Chernanigans – week 2. Stories of a single woman.

People assume that because I’m an only child I’m high maintenance, spoiled and used to getting my way, some of that is true, but above all else I take care of myself. When I’m on a date I’m quick to take out my wallet, not as part of a test, but because I don’t want [...]

CherBear here: I’m on vacation, I’m bored, I’m alone. So I went to Slaus and I said “Hey, can I publicly humiliate myself on the Blog?” and Slaus was like “I would love for you to embarrass yourself for the amusement, delight and laughter of others”.  Now you’re all thinking that “CherBear embarrasses herself every [...]
