So I've been doing a lot of thinking... The black community (rightfully or wrongfully) can be super negative at times and since this forum is a by-product of that, sometimes it can be one of the most negative places on the net.

I'm at a point in my life where I want to embrace positivity so I figured I'd try an experiment. Who's down to commit to no negativity offline and online for the remainder of the work week?

RULES:
-No hating on anybody for anything. (i.e. "I'm happy and proud of Dr. Dre" vs. "Why that nikka aint donating nothing back to Compton!?!?")
-No generalizing an entire race, gender, or sexual orientation in a negative way
-Laughter is good medicine. You can laugh at things, but no negative insults or disses.
-Try to focus on the good side of news (i.e. "Congrats to them on a happy engagement." vs. "She's gonna cheat on him and take all his money. What a sucker!")

That's it. Plus it's ONLY three days. :aicmon:

I'm really interested to see if this (keeping a positive outlook) affects my general mood and disposition.

So is the Coli down or naw?

So you're really disputing that? There are some miserable people on this board who only seek to make others feel as miserable as they are.

you can quote all the webster dictionary ish you want bruh it still doesnt change that

folks are only going to change when they choose to change and choose to exercise they own free will, you honestly think folks are going to conform and go along to get along because of you. You and I both know the answer to that
