    Now I get it.

    The Cop called him Westbrook!

    Totally justified, Martell. Totally justified!

    My son used to call his first grade teacher Mrs. Ketchup. That's kind of like a vegetable...

    Hahaha. That reminds me of when the Reagan administration wanted to classify ketchup as a vegetable for school lunch programs ;)

    My name is Damany.

    Phonetically pronounced: Duh-MAW-nee

    People fuck my name up all the time and it's a miracle when they pronounce it correctly.

    Now, I don't begrudge people for getting it wrong. It's a unique name. But because black folk wanna name their kids:

    LaMarcus, LaMichael (really WTF?), and fucking LeGarrette...

    No MF my name is not DaMonty.... That said I'm 100% sure his name hasn't been mispronounced more than mine.

    So what whites are more privileged because black folk choose some funny ass names??

    Get over it. It's not how white privilege works.

    Shit Courtney Cox named her kid Co Co. That's a strippers name...

    Co Co? Yikes. I had an acquaintance years ago who named her daughter Trixie. I thought at the time she had preordained the poor kid to be a stripper. I hope not.

    dviss, I apologize in advance I'm probably going to say your name wrong, haha. I'll cop to white phonetic ignorance ;)

    Amusingly enough, Ice-T and Coco named their daughter Chanel.

    Well, she's 2. Very common for toddlers. However, I don't approve of the pole in nursery. Over the top, IMO.

    Sounds risky. Are you the NEP Betelguese?

    Martell was probably on Ambien.

    Wait I'm confused.
    Not one single person no matter their pigmentation has ever pronounced my last name correctly without being told...
    I fail to see why Martell is so upset.


    Shit there was a white NFL kicker who had his last name mispronounced by his black head coach the entire rookie season.
    Give me a break.

    In seriousness, perhaps the cop was being sarcastic. That profession seems to have a tendency to enjoy needling people who can't talk back.

    Call it "Cop Privilege".

    Nude model, close enough.
