fun read but i gotta say, maybe you just have to be ur own version of corny. maybe all these dreams are teachers, not ghosts, guiding you to the version of corny that might align best with you. good luck 🥹

is there a female equivalent? i’m sure we can dream one up but NO because a woman would NEVER have such freedom and carelessness lmao this was so so good

Saheim Patrick's avatar

Oh no, y'all aren't safe, either! The female equivalent of this would probably talk about women who don't play about 'Heart of a Woman' by Summer Walker and other selections in the Lash Tech Music genre

Saheim Patrick's avatar

I say that with love, though ❤️.

Lash Tech Music Genre is crazy 😭

The female equivalent is Solange Knowles and her ilk. Lmao

HIERO's avatar

ill take NO solange slander or lash tech music lashings 🙂‍↔️🙂‍↔️🙂‍↔️ those niches are no where near the shameless on-the-cob levels as the male archetype described in this piece!

bri hyve's avatar

Lolol! The lash techs are far from corny. They’re ghetto! And ghetto is cool. Solange is definitely corny. She’d be the gf of one of those “on-the-cob” black dudes described in the piece.

Jane Cajuste's avatar

Keep Solange’s name out your mouth 🤣

HIERO's avatar

maybe the committed hoteptresses tho …

kadi's avatar

It's not that Malcom is corny, it's that fake deep people love to name check without actually practicing what's in the books.

😭😭 I was dyingg... "You know the type. They were what made André 3000 comfortable enough to drop New Blue Sun. He knew there was a market of tea-sipping Negroes with small beanies." Just one of the many gems.

I cackled reading that

Love your writing style, immediately felt like my people and had me yelling at my phone. Subbed. 🙌🏽

This piece was funny and insightful! I really liked how you were honest I about being envious of their confidence. I think sometime as black people we feel like we need to perform a certain kind of confidence, to be accepted and “corny niggas” love them or hate them, break that mold. It’s something i never thought about but, im glad you did! Such a good read.

I am cracking up, not the lil mama at the end; something here is also very vulnerable—— the embrace, the freedom—- the spectrum of thought and thinking—-
