Buppie Don’t: Fighting in the Club

We have all been there.  Drinking, having a good time, laughing, cuffing, and THEN this happens:

Someone comes pushes you too F&@!KING hard. Someone steps on your FooeyBoutins.OH HAYLE NAW! We got a problem!

I will be the first to admit. I got anger management issues. I pop off. What I am becoming more aware of, is although I may be the same size as Manny Pacquiao, I AINT.

I admit to having my own buppie don’t moments. About two weeks ago, I almost got my ass beat. I was tipsy, and I told a group of AMAZON bitches to move, so I could get to the bar. Them 3 bitches looked like they were going to strait jump me, school bus style.  I got my drink and I speed walked my black ass back to my girls. Shooot! Men lie, women lie, numbers don’t. 3 against 1? I ain’t dumb.

Now, back in my younger days I would have elbowed a BITCH too close,  swung my weave in your face, or STOMPED the shyt out of your hard bottoms. That was then, and this is now. Truly, there does come a point where we should WALK AWAY. All we going to do is LOSE.

HERE are a few reasons why you should avoid fighting in the club.

1 Well Obviously, you can lose it all. Yep! You are going to catch a case. You are going to go to jail! How are you going to explain to your boss, your momma, that you are in jail because someone stepped on your Via Spiga’s??! POOF! There goes your job! Your car, your apartment..shyt your entire life.

2 People out here are crazy including Buppies. Yes! You besta believe if I am swinging on your ass, risking my quality of life, I’m going to box the shyt out your ass. If it has gotten to this point, you should be scared.

3 People don’t forget shyt, even if you win. Picture this: It’s me and my homies chillen at a local bar joint. Getting it in on the behalf of my folks birthday. The spot uses this industrial grade fan, which was seriously messing up our hair. Here comes a group of drunk chicks by us, who move the fan BACK towards us, and dance with the fan. My Homegirl says, “Hey ladies, can you move the fan off us?” Drunk chicks roll their eyes.  Ignores Homegirl. Homegirl gets up, walks over and says “Excuse me, we moved the fan earlier to get it off of us, Would you mind moving the fan?” Yea, Homegirl said it with a attitude, some words exchanged. Drunk Bitch, slaps the shyt out of her. Just like THIS Homegirl is stunned. My JAW is on the floor! In fact, it is like the entire room just stops. Homegirl throws drink at drunk girl and commences to WHIP HER ASS. I MEAN she went IN!

But even though Homegirl whipped her ass, ALL we can ever remember is that she got the shyt slapped out of her. Was it worth it?

See, even if you win, you still lose. Don’t fight in the club.

 

Argh Nike Boots!!!

Friday night was a pretty interesting night. Myself and 3 other buppie women were trying to go out. Usually me and my homegirls are strait DC girls. We enjoy the city and the buppie crowds that it attracts. We do not do big Clubs i.e Love or a H2O often.We’ll I tend to not want to because the crowd is just not my scene and Lines suck! Plus I am not in the mood to be putting on my prom dress to make the dress code at some of these clubs. So we stay at special buppie events here and there in the city.. and we like to be versatile. I enjoy seeing many new spots throughout the city. So this night was no different. Wanted to go somewhere new.

One of the places we heard it was popping was the good old Ward 9 bka PG County. Now all of us grew up in the county, but for someone reason we are hate partying there! For one it seems like always a freaking high school reunion! The men wear these local designers hoodies and sneakers, and worst of all Nike Boots. Now this style may have been cool if I was in high school, but I am not. I wasn’t thinking it was going to be that bad, but were were also venturing to a part of town were 3 people were shot 3 weeks ago. (WARD 9) However, this night I was curious to see what this new bar had to offer.

So, as heterosexual buppie women we enjoy they shop at Express for Men or can put on a sweater nice shoes, slacks, ties, blazers (in season please). At the same time, we don’t want any homo thugs!

Of course we saw the nike boots but not in plentiful amounts as I expected. Nonetheless, the crowd was not to our taste.

What amazes me is this attitude we have. Bourgeoisie. Sometimes I find myself judging books by its cover, and I try to stop myself because we should not do that! but its hard. I tend to like pretty covers, well put together things. I watch how I come over and what I say and do, because I do not want to be seen as less than the buppie I am…

Fast Forward

Day two of the weekend my homegirl and I hit another DC spot. She never went there before, and although each time i go I have fun I knew the crowd was going to me more….PG County… and it was.
Previous to entering we were discussing our lifestyles in the people who have come and gone.. a key quote she said was “A girl with no college education who works at burger king, would not be hanging with us”

We percede to enter the Ward 9 club, men with nike boots, lil wayne look alikes, etc. etc.

Back to Burger King

Dayumn. Kinda of Harsh right? No Nike boots… no burger king workers?? But its real. This is how we think!

If you are not well together packaged, then eff you!.. This attitude that some bups have is craaazy!

I still think about this and some will say 20 somethings are ruthless but we really are! I find myself being cut throat to the people that are around me, the places I am seen at, and the type of men I am attracted to… with all these restrictions or standards… am I living life?

Sometimes I feel I am missing alot because my true circle of friends and network seems to have dwindled.

What am I missing because I can’t do Nike Boots and Burger Kings?
