It’s a Celebration on Awesomely Luvvie So Giveaway Time!
I’m always tardy for the party, even when it’s my own. August was insanely busy for me. So busy that I forgot a major special occasion here on AwesomelyLuvvie.com! On August 8, 2006, I launched this blog with a simple post, not thinking it would turn into anything but a …
Whose Face Tattoo is This?
Sometimes, I come across something that makes me realize that some people are born dumber than others. This tattoo is one. The weapon formed against him was “failure” and it already prospered when he got this permanently etched on his face. What makes someone wake up in the morning and …
Black Historical Figures Ride on Horses to Glory

Spades Question. Did They Renege?
So last year, I wrote a post talmbout how Spades is not a game. SPADES IS LIFE! That card game is serious business, and unless you’re ready to talk shit, get cussed out and possibly lose valued relationships over it, don’t sit down at that table. YOU AIN’T READY YET!!! …
Someone Come Get Juanita Bynum And Her Speaking in Tongues on Facebook
Some of you may have heard of Evangelist Juanita Bynum. She of the scandal where her husband beat her down in the church parking lot or something wretched and unacceptable like that. AOL Black Voices even wrote a story called “Beat Up From the Feet Up.” And please don’t judge …
Dear Vogue Italia, Slave Earrings? Here’s TWO Seats to Have
So sometimes, stuff is published on major outlets that is just sooo jarring and stupid that I am just convinced it was a mistake. Or written for The Onion. This is one of them. Vogue Italia published an article on their site featuring hoop earrings. And instead of calling them …
