Make.It.Stop. PLEASE!!

Ya’ll thought the freaks only came out at night, huh? Well, Baby let me tell you, they also come out on PrimeTime TV (and for the record, they clock in around 8:30ish in a little hotspot I call “work” LOL)

Yes Boys and Girls, Gary Coleman is coming to primetime on May 1-2. Following in the recent footsteps of Prophetess Juanita Bynum, Coleman and his young wife will appear on “Divorce Court” with Judge Lynn Toler.

Dear God in Heaven, WHY??????

Seriously.

I understand that the marriage in “in trouble”. I can’t even feign surprise. I watched the “couple” conduct another interview not long after it was disclosed that they were married. Honestly, they didn’t appear even remotely ‘couple-like’. They never looked at each other. They never touched. And why the hell does Gary Coleman insist on talking with his frigging eyes closed?? Ugh! Ugh! Ugh!

Why is it people keep trying to live their relationships in reverse? Coleman and his missus surely could have benefited from counseling (INDIVIDUALLY AND AS A COUPLE) BEFORE anybody said “I Do”. That’s not to say that whatever they face can’t be worked through but they’ve definitely made it a bit more difficult for themselves. Personally, they don’t appear invested in or committed enough to each other to really put in the work. *shrug*

I could be wrong. What do I know? I am, as someone trivial recently reminded me, “part of that huge statistical number re: unmarried African-American woman”. And the person who gave me this not-so-gentle reminder?

Well, let’s just say that he remains someone for whom the memory of when I DIDN’T know him is still fresh in my mind.
