Hot Take: Alfonso Ribeiro should've gotten the same support that Michael B Jordan is getting right now over the "corny" discourse.

[Carlton Banks]

Classic

This shyt so cringe

 

[Taadow]

Alfonso wasn’t “corny” until he was Carlton. That’s the difference between he and MBJ on this.

 

[JamesJabdi]

Alfonso Ribeiro ain't really got no noticable roles outside of Carlton and Carlton was written as a straight up cornball.....that was he was intended to be just like Urkel.

 

[Lexington Steele]

No one named Alfonso can be trusted.

This shyt so cringe

'There's some hot white bytches in here tonight!' 'Yeah!'

I quote that shyt to myself all the time

 

[Sauce and Footwork]

People called him corny for different reasons. He married a white woman or dated them and acted like a white guy and literally played Carlton who was purposely portrayed as corny. That’s not how I feel about him, but he literally on stage saying “where the white women at”. He corny is the RG3 way. Black man who loves white women and hanging with white people. People calling Michael B that for no good reason at all

As much as I enjoy MBJ’s work from hardball to his cameos on the wire to now I can’t deny he can be viewed as corny. Corny is an overused word atp and is subjective. Some people find nerds corny some find hood nikkas corny but if he was actually walking around his high school w his head shots like they say, and that fukking rap video MBJ made was 200% .

I know it’s cool now to say black people care too much about this and it doesn’t matter in the grand scheme but it does no one wants to be around a socially inept weirdo and that’s what being corny essentially is. In order to move and succeed in society you need to have some level of cool about you. I say this as a nikka who don’t got a degree but I make more than the school nerd who had a 4.0 GPA they work at Trader Joe’s I’m not being sarcastic.

 

[Kiyoshi-Dono]

This conversation has become convoluted and bad faith arguments all around
The same nikkas you think are “corny”
Are all omnipresent on this very forum
Ain’t nan one of you nikkas(including myself)
Some suave, debonair muthafukka irl
If you were
You wouldn’t be having the same damn redundant thread topics
Day in and day out on a fukking INTERNET FORUM WITH A BUNCH OF GROUP THINK ASS nikkaS
Y’all stay telling on y’all selves
Donald Glover, MBJ, Alfonso are all a dichotomy of this society and forum
Until nikkas start being real on this forum and not playing mentally Ill characters
It’s all just

 

[MoshpitMazi]

I don’t understand why folks keep calling mbj corny he seems like a regular nikka. Not a street nikka, not a preppy nikka, not a c00n nikka, just a regular ass nikka

He’s corny.

 

[BobbyWojak]

What I don't understand is what makes him corny, Donald is a nerd, Carlton is white, is it because MBJ is a 'nice guy'?

He’s corny.

Alright this is funny but it's one video, Charlemagne made a whole music video with Lena Dunham for Hillary Clinton and people don't call him corny. Every actor is gonna have an embarrassing role, apparently this is a deleted scene from the show Parenthood, it's not like he recorded it himself.

 

[Justin Nitsuj]

Bro played Killmonger. I can never call MBJ corny.

Lets be real and not sugar coat shyt alot of these shear butter feminists and black men haters ''corny'' is having the audacity to date or like women of other races . Since MBJ started dating that white girl or left harvey thats when it started really pilling up. Its just another way to mate guard and get black men afraid to date who they want or like. Lets not pretend or act obtuse please

This shyt so layered sometimes I forget about the interracial aspect

Why not publicly clown the breh who likes white women ? Dating white women is corny
