    Agreed- people are soooo much more than their profession. Well, usually anyways. Some dudes are boring as fuuuuuck lol

    I'll admit, yes this is true. But in ROC I think it's also hard to find. Seriously...show me these dudes who are really getting their shit together! I know a handful, but they're often in transition- either just graduating, just starting something, getting ready to move, concentrating on work or something else. And that's ok- that's how they got to where they are. But it sounds more like pizza shop dude just didn't have as much depth as you need or wanted. He was fun but intellectually didn't do it for you. I don't work in finance or business, but I can hold my own talking stocks...and other things for that matter. And others can too- it just depends on what they read and value.

    Realistically, based on the pool I'll be fishing out of, I suspect I'll end up with a Jared, and that's just fine.

    Exactly! If he works at a pizzeria, (as an associate/rep) why would he be expected to be in a room discussing stocks and bonds?! Go see him once u leave ANOTHER tired azz 'networking' event. He might be dope at other things.

    Like I said, if u have ur own, and aren't pressed abt being the first blk gay couple on the cover of Black Enterprise, I, personally, don't get the issue.

    That's a lie, because I know the issue for sooo many gay men is wanting to be a fab, gay, 'power' couple...smh

    Atlanta was one of the best shows this past year - unpredictable, a sly slow burn. Plus each of the show's principals got a chance to lead a story - something you don't often see.

    I decided to check out Chewing Gum since it showed up in my Netflix recommendations and shit was HILARIOUS! I was not expecting that. British comedy is something else. And I like how it's still mostly black.

    I don't get the whole power couple thing. Actually I do. People wanna be envied.

    Molly wants to be seen. She wants her relationship to look "right" from the outside. For people to roll their eyes and say, "of course she married a wildly-successful businessman/doctor/whatever...after all, she's a lawyer."

    I'm not into that. I don't need that. I need loyalty and support and someone who can put up with my many, many moods lol

    I'm not a particularly strong fan of Olisa, but I respect your admiration. It is interesting to have a show with more than one black gay character. Although, I'm not sure how much screen time the light-skinned one will have in the next season.

    I mostly admire the hyper religious antics of girl Tracy's sister as well as girl Tracy's comedic skills and mannerisms.

    Chewing Gum is definitely not my cup of tea, I couldn't get into at all.

    You were right. I'll be looking forward to Insecure Season 2.
