[faqu529]

[bktrinigurl]

Chicago!!!!

[LeslieMoniqueTV]

@bktrinigurl: You know it!

[BluBerriBabiKisses90]

Lmfao I don't even have dreads but this is hilarious.. Alot of this stuff ppl said to my cousin when she got dreads, when she had them and when she decided to take them out this year(10 years later).. Everyone was surprised she didn't have to go bald to take her dreads out.. But for real I didn't know it was a difference in dreads and locs.. Learn something new everyday ha..

[LeslieMoniqueTV]

@BluBerriBabiKisses90: Well there's no difference, but people think "locs" is a more respectful than "DREADS" because DREADS are "dreadful"

[DreadHeadQUiNN]

YESSS.. seems like im gay all of a sudden now because i have locs -___-

[xxLilJXxX]

ys everybody copying shit white girls say to black

[LeslieMoniqueTV]

@xxLilJXxX: That's untrue... Just so happens that people say the same exact stuff.

[chescaleigh]

lauren, you're too good at playing a guy. lol hilarious

[MissLaurenB18]

@chescaleigh Hahaha GIRL I was so embarrassed playing the guy part. -_- Leslie was so into it takin pictures and stuff LOL! Thanks :)

[purplerain7100]

lol! especially the singing part "u better caaaall tyyyrone"

[reef360]

how could u leave out 'how long have you been growing your hair??' ive been asked that every day for the last 10 years!

[jeralee23]

some ppl can be so ignorant

[applesandmustard]

sooo why did i think that "guy" was laurens brother? or something *standing ovation* great video. both of you. i think i've pretty much heard it all before. oh, and the typical "are you jamaican or rasta?"

[MissLaurenB18]

@applesandmustard lmao!! woooow XD. But We said all of that. I was trying to encourage Leslie to make a part 2. :-)

[LeslieMoniqueTV]

@TaioLuv: Shut the fuck up with that shit. Everyone's not DYKES. Are you a dyke?

[KnottyDreadTV]

@TaioLuv your hate is not welcome on our channel. blocked. -Tastic

[lilslayer1212]

You nailed it one thing people often say "Do you wanna be like lil wayne"

[JBGrimey]

I done heard all of that minus the female parts I don't go a week without hearin "how long you been growin um" they used to come down to my lower back but I trimmed them to bout shoulder length people act like it was they hair and mad that I cut them

[nolagurl86]

Lol!!

[that1taylor]

Lmao..so true cuz I always get asked do I smoke!

[chryschrys]

Wish you went more in depth with the wash question! That is the most annoying question ever!

[Jazzyodyssey]

OMGOSH!!! I LOVE THIS!!!! LOL!!!

!

[NINAYAMINI]

lol too funny

[LuBellaCoils]

I used to get this one "I couldn't wear dreads because I like to run a comb through my head". Funny how ppl used to approach me and OFFER their likes and dislikes like I really wanted to know.

[TheEntertainmentRing]

This video's funny... "You're too pretty to have dreads," "I do not wanna be seen with a bald headed b*tch" lol whaaaat hahaa SMH at the stuff people say sometimes. The Erykah Badu part did make me laugh the most cause I just heard that song on the radio.

[CaliforniaAfrican]

How could you leave out "Shake dem dreads"? E-40 is not happy!!! LOL!!!

[MasonFlyy]

lol i cant lie i i think some girls with dreads be gay too nice vid

[LeslieMoniqueTV]

@MasonFlyy: Not all of them.

[Mbeebeelove]

lmao @Waka FLockA! heheheh ahhh I enjoyed the vid guys!  (^_ ^)

[pavmx703]

Haha the weed one is the main one I get asked! Even though the answer may be yes its still annoying. Another one is “Are they locked?” I mean, if you know what “locked” is you should know what it looks like.

[Jewelzz2]

LOL!!! YOU ARE FUNNY!!! BUT THIS IS SO TRUE!!

[LeslieMoniqueTV]

@Jewelzz2: Thanks!

[WhoSpeaksShe21]

"...we all black." lol

[NB662]

Look At Waka Flocka, Can I Touch Your Dreads, Your Hair Is So Pretty

[sweetpagoda]

OMG! "you're too pretty to have dreads" my mom just said that to me this week!! smh

[LeslieMoniqueTV]

@sweetpagoda: My dad's told me that too.

[bmjm1974]

[LeslieMoniqueTV]

@bmjm1974: Thank you!!!

[MsIslandSpice]

[lockedinlove1]

What about are you a rasta? You know in certain countries you have to kill a lion before you get dreads???? Do you know what they represent? I just had to cut mines off to get a job.....im surprised your still working....like wtf lol ?

[LionsLetumHang]

[chyitaria]

@iCharmCity410: Exactly.

[adelinesweetheart]

How are you so attractive as a man aaaaaaaand a woman!? That is a good looking person right here haha.

[MissLaurenB18]

@adelinesweetheart thanks -_-

[adelinesweetheart]

@MissLaurenB18 it is a compliment!! haha

[MissLaurenB18]

@adelinesweetheart haha I know. A loooot of people said we look good. Some people had to look at the video twice to see if that was really us playing dudes :D When I look at myself as I guy I see a splitting image of my dad. -________-

[LeslieMoniqueTV]

[tbey82]

[MissLaurenB18]

@tbey82 lol thanks. I get the "Who did your dreads?" If I say the name they wouldn't even know who the person is! haha it's so funny!

[meroekhalia]

HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!! I love it!!!

[itsallj]

The hilarity and sarcasm of the meme comes from mocking what certain types of people say, not what's said to certain types of people. That said, I think this missed. Badly.

[LeslieMoniqueTV]

@itsallj: Note that this video is called "Shit PEOPLE Say..." not "Shit BLACK GIRLS SAY TO..." or "SHIT WHITE PEOPLE SAY..." It's a video about people [IN GENERAL] who are ignorant of the dreadlock culture, and what THEY SAY TO PEOPLE who wear dreadlocks. Look at the comments, funny how other people can relate, huh? And yes, we are mocking these people who ask these idiotic questions. Intentionally.

[itsallj]

@LeslieMoniqueTV The fact that it's people "in general" TO a certain type of person is what I think makes the video subpar. To me, it gives a sense that everyone looks at your hair with some bewilderment instead of relating to the person that it's attached to. I know there are tons of dummies who do say all of this, but to me, it's much more condescending that it is funny. And while I'm the only one who's written a negative comment, your reply doesn't make things seem any less condescending.

[LeslieMoniqueTV]

@itsallj: I never said EVERYONE or a TYPICAL person who approached us about our locs were negative. But if that's how you feel, so be it. All the "shit videos" are all out of sarcasm. If everyone made a video about "GOOD THINGS THAT PEOPLE SAY," it wouldn't be funny. All of these videos is made for comedy; To be laughed at. Live a little.

[itsallj]

@LeslieMoniqueTV I get it now; the fact that I don't like the video means I must not have a sense of humor, and no idea what sarcasm is. I don't see why you're trying to justify things to me, 'cause (as YOU said) everyone else seems to like this. But the fact that you're pointing out those who ask the idiotic questions doesn't show that you're above them, and doesn't put you in any better light, then you put the ones who ask all the questions.

[LeslieMoniqueTV]

@itsallj: Have you not seen the other "SHIT _____ SAY" videos? Like with "Shit That Black Girls Say," Not all Black girls say/do those phrases. Some may be stereotypes, and some of it may be true. EXAGGERATIONS. The FACT THAT WE WERE POKING FUN at the questions MADE IT FUNNY. Again, it's YOUR opinion. I know why I made this video, and I don't need to prove why. I don't see why you keep replying because whether you like it or not, we're doing this for fun and entertainment. Get over yourself.

[RainbowSoulPoet]

@LeslieMoniqueTV also just to add my two cents, Stereotypes do come from a certain element of truth... If it's offensive to anyone perhaps they should check their behavior - IJS #Don'tKillTheMessenger - just like ignorance - life goes on :)

[LeslieMoniqueTV]

@RainbowSoulPoet: Exactly. This video is based of some of those who asks us questions like this and can relate to their ignorance. And just seeing how we portayed these people made it funny. Just like the other videos.... It's kinda an eye opener to see that some of these people really act like this.

[RainbowSoulPoet]

@LeslieMoniqueTV ironicly I went to a RAVE for the first time a night ago after seeing Pariah and some white dude asked me if he could touch my hair... So, there my black folks --> Ya'll aint the only ones that can be ignant too LOL! I can now officially relate to it ALL SMH!

[LeslieMoniqueTV]

@RainbowSoulPoet: OH SNAP!!!! Yep! Not everybody who approach you are black! And OMG, Pariah was so good, that I'm going to watch it for a 2nd time!

[RainbowSoulPoet]

@LeslieMoniqueTV Mos def and Yesss PARIAH was so good I had to do a movie review on it which can be seen on my page -just uploaded it! You ladies did an awesome job with this video btw :) And for the record if you're offended by this video just take a gander to the right at all of the relating videos and be mad at those too LOL!

[itsallj]

@LeslieMoniqueTV I keep replying because YOU keep replying. If you're confident in what you did, the fact that I didn't like it shouldn't even matter, and you could have brushed off my first comment, and moved on. But you ain't moved on yet, have you?

[LeslieMoniqueTV]

@itsallj: Too bad I reply to everyone's comments. And look! They didn't reply back! How wonderful.

[iCharmCity410]

@itsallj stop bein a bitch

[KCpro15]

@itsallj Quit trolling, either you like the video, or you don't, smh.

[LeslieMoniqueTV]

@KCpro15: Thank you!

[lhillookalike]

"How do you wash it"  HAAAAAAAATE THAT SHIT!!!

[LeslieMoniqueTV]

@lhillookalike: ME too. It's like "HOW ELSE WOULD I WASH IT?"

[deraAZOify]

"Ohhhh...Eryka Bahdu!!"

[masterkizzle82]

misslaurenB18 is a trip!! lmao

[DecatursOwn6]

you cant get a real job with that on your head.

I hate dealing with misinformed people whether it be freind, family, or co worker, I swear im carry around a pamplet teaching the ignorant thje truth about locs, I hate callin em "dread"locks because I dont dread them at all.

[Napisha09]

Hey!! Do you listen to Bob Marley?....Is that all your hair?...I like them when you get them done. I don't like them when they're all over your head?...They feel..Haaard!!...You remind me of Medusa. HAHAHA!!...Why would you wanna do that to your hair??...I kinda like them now because girl when you first got them, you looked a mess!!!

[LeslieMoniqueTV]

@aynatal924: Thanks! But we did say it, but I just left it out... I felt like we've hit a lot of points.

[Zen0okami]

Oh man I couldnt stop laughing. "Yo dreads, yo dreads." My thought: (I know she just didnt draw a fake beard on her face...) xD

[ikkinnikk]

Is this like a tag or something on youtube why ppl keep doing these. But good video. I never got this was extra funny though.

[KnottyDreadTV]

@ikkinnikk: It's basically a trend that people are doing... like the stereotypes of what certain people say. So we are doing what a typical person would say or do when they approach a person with locs. And thank you!!!!
