FILM PITCH:

Lol, boss getting on your nerves lately?

Also Black and female, and love to read and watch horror. These people need to stop deciding that one or two negroes they’ve spoken with represent the whole fucking bunch.

I can’t understand the idea that all of an X group doesn’t (or does) Y as a useful business model. I know it’s all about targeted marketing and making the most of that budget, but to not even test audience a range of demographics makes no sense.

Guess I better throw away my script about a black woman who dies comes back to life and then hacks her white female boss to pieces and then eats her heart.

OK, maybe it’s just a moody Monday here on the pond but...Why do people (looking @ YOU, Unnamed Exec) tell me I don’t want to do things when I am standing in front of them saying that I do?

Black woman reporting here. I LOVE horror movies. I even passed my love of them on to my daughter. I guess actually asking us might be to much like right.

Umm... did these asshole execs ever ASK us if we watched horror movies?

What a weird culture. People’s brains are just wigging me out today. Who says “black women don’t watch horror movies” just because you don’t know of any (which also doesn’t make sense because Traccy is black, and she wants to make one)? How do you know? Have you met every black woman on the planet? Have you taken a

Firrst of all as a southern black person who regularly has to interact with the people who owned her family I know exactly what it fucking takes. Oprah is a God damned miracle. To say   that she is where she is a testament to her intelligence and tenacity is an understatement. Black women should run everything

The people who think Oprah isn’t qualified to be President completely misunderstand what it takes for a black woman, for any woman but especially a black woman, to create a media and business empire. The whole thing is fundamentally a political act, unless you were that one PA on set that Seth Meyers mentioned, Jeremy

Reading this made me tear up. I just got off the phone with my mom and she was getting emotional saying, ‘It must be nice. You have all the opportunities in the literal world (I’m working abroad right now).’

Him resigning in disgrace doesn’t change that he was a good politician.

My mom sat on the couch next to me, listening to Oprah, tearing up because she’s one of those unnamed single moms who worked her ass off to make sure I went to college and had every opportunity. Which made me tear up. So now I need to go out in that world and be the biggest badass I can be, so I can make Mom and

the whole black this is ridiculous. they should have only worn clothing and accessories by lady designers and gone big an bold.

So who WON’T wear black?

did you stop to think before you wrote this? because it reeks of entitlement and classism. heaven fucking forbid that people in lower tax brackets than you need somewhere to shop. check your privilege.

They are awful, but as someone reminded us above, Paris Hilton, the first generation of famous for nothing celebrity, is a vile racist and a misogynist (I added that bit myself, but remember her laughing at “Firecrotch”? So yeah). So however awful the Kardashians are, at least we can say they are not racists or

I’m laughing too hard at this.

The dulling power of a deep national malaise is a force. I haven’t uttered “happy new year” to single person, so far.
