the way they're going around looking me in the eyes "Happy Independence Day!" ... I can tell they're gauging my reaction to see if Im one of the "the USA still had slaves on Independence day" Blacks. Theyre so fkn annoying just fkn gone about your business.
sometimes the gorls will give a "have a great long weekend guys!" mess when it comes to holidays like MLK Day
But the same gorls never fail to say "happy Memorial Day weekend!" Or "happy thanksgiving weekend!"
Im very intentional in not replying in the same way, or swiftly coming behind someone who announces "happy long weekend everyone !" with "happy MLK weekend everyone !" . And I really don't care if someone feels a way about it .
It's not a "long weekend". Let's be clear. It's MLK weekend.
There's no reason not to recognize that when it's a recognized fucking holiday .as in , the entire reason you have the day off.
Say his name. It's not hard.
There's even a super simple abbreviation for it
MLK Day .
