Black people wrecking black people. A tale as old as time.

This bot always felt a bit racist.

I watched the video and read the post and thought this was going to be some one-sided non drama. But sho nuff at least half the comments are siding with the people twerking in a fucking restaurant including against large glass windows.

Good find OP πŸ‘Œ

It really is a lot of one side or the other bickering on all the different socials. I have been pleasantly surprised by the amount of black folks calling out the behavior and especially calling out cardi b and that stallion thing as "ratchet" and shouldn't be thought of as representative of black women in general.

I did learn something, though, that I could live without knowing. Apparently "twerk wind/air" is a thing. As in "I don't wanna smell your twerk wind while I'm eating".

The first time I read that, I thought "what"?, but I've read numerous references to twerk wind or air in the various commentary I've read this afternoon and it's a new one on me. Apparently it's a thing. Kinda a gross concept. Apparently fat nasty asses shaking all around might not smell so good.

"Twerk Wind" would be a great name for a prog rock band.

Wait we got a whole dj playing music but don't want ppl dancing???

There are really black women in these comments backing another black man policing black women and our bodies

I do not follow. The cultural divide is just too much for me to understand.

There’s the normal twitter critters in there that see black and woman and assume no wrong. But holy fuck some real based replies from other black women telling people to shut the fuck up these hood rats got what they deserved. It brings a tear of drama joy to my eye seeing some sanity and not mindless groupthink.

Yeah, it's all out war in all kinds of different places, I was just reading some youtube comments. Either it's perfectly fine, black women are perfect and just can't help busting out in twerk whenever and thats great, or it's the opposite and they are trash for doing and giving other decent black women a bad name.

I just read some black woman posting "Exactly. Ratchets are the Rednecks of Black people."

Lol. This shit is hilarious.

Damn the food looks bomb. And lol at the twitteratti saying the place isn't upscale because the very same group of trash is wearing uggs.

Two reviews mention twerking. Both gave the restaurant one star!

Not sure who's running this company's social-media outlets but what a hot mess. Aside from the owner chastising a room full of black grown adults (women) on some "respectability, that's why Black women are looked at negatively" for FOR DANCING (TWERKING) TO TWERK MUSIC while serving guests copious amounts of liquor, the handling of this controversy has been sad and laughable.

Black establishments want to be supported by the community but simultaneously talk down to black folks THEY NEED to keep their business afloat. If grown, sexy and chic was the atmosphere you wanted then why employ a DJ to play "Throw that ass in a circle," "Back That Ass Up?" Then to belittle your own clientele as you practice ZERO safety measures while we're still in a PANDEMIC w/ TEXAS BEING A MAJOR HUB OF CASES.

So many options: Talk to the group of women dancing on the couches and escort them out rather chastising the whole restaurant on why black women aren't respected. That whole recorded, Bill Cosby "Pound Cake" speech was unnecessary.

This place is clearly for the Jack and Jill, high saditty, wannabe Dallas socialites who cling to faulty notions of respectability.


your restaurant took 45 plus minutes for food but addressed an entire restaurant about twerking in your establishment.... told people who are spending money in a pandemic that they could get the fuck out and he didnt need the money. ... so why is the food not free ?? why did you post a brunch party flyer ? why do you say we wouldnt go to (names all the white owned establishments you named) and twerk? why are you putting a color on class ??? i understand you want to be upscale but theres a few things you need to do first before you can be upscale and twerking should be the least of your worries.

nothing upscale is made with hennessy

upscale restaurants have better furniture

cocktails with a k?? very upscale ...

dress code sign on door ?? very veryyyy upscale ... no seriously what upscale restaurant have you been too where they have a dress code list laminated and posted on the front door ??? not one . so the next time you get your pnties in a bunch you should think if cursing out an entire restaurant is the right thing to do. you shoulda been back there cursing out your cooks and seeing why food took 45 minutes and better ??

Two Yelp reviews mention twerking and they are stunners. Both gave the restaurant one star of course.

I particularly liked it when someone said: "If grown, sexy and chic was the atmosphere you wanted then why employ a DJ to play "Throw that ass in a circle," "Back That Ass Up?" ", and also how the staff member or manager lectured the restaurant on how black women shouldn't behave.

That's actually a good question, though probably with not the answer they'd like.

Someone please help the jannies learn regex,.

Yelp's deleted the reviews related to the case or recent. Twitter video is funny

Dude is unironically a fucking king πŸ‘‘πŸ‘‘πŸ‘‘

That's like Shlomo bitching about Joos smelling an anti-Semite every where they go.

People use what they can and if they use it really good, it's a culture.

When the dramatards obsess over something, they do not let it go until it's completely torn apart. You're the pitbulls of people, but with less to contribute to society.

Good shit op

Imagine being proud of supporting a businesses simply because of the race of the owner...

Imagine being proud of choosing to support businesses based on the race of the owner.

First three words and I'm already like:

🀯

What kind of barn-raised animal gets up on the chairs at a dining table and twerks and then gets mad when the owner asks them to stop? jfc go back to the hood, laqueetha.

Why they were twerking ?
