It’s that time of year again. Nominate me for a Black Weblog Award. Go here to get all the instructions and ish. And tell a friend to nominate me too!
This week’s Any 10 on Tuesday features the infamous Obsidian. Since I like to beat the rush and hit VSB before 7am I always miss what he has to say, but I hear he’s a legend in the comments section. If you – like I – have been sleeping on him, get to know him here and check out his blog.
Ready? Let’s begin.
Describe yourself in three sentences or less.
Let’s see – I would describe myself as something of an urban dandy, an innercity pundit, a rabble rousing raconteur, an amatuer social scientist, a budding photographer, a stargazer of many years, a semi-professional pest, and on a good day, a pretty decent blogger.
1. Is there something about your life or lifestyle that makes your perspective on dating/relationships unique?
Yes. I’ve had the good fortune to have dated quite a few ladies, in quite a few ways, under a number of, shall we say, interesting circumstances lo these many years. Many stories to tell, I have.
2. To what extent are you willing to adapt this lifestyle to that of your partner?
I would say to quite an extent. I’m easy.
3. Thong or boyshorts?
*Cues the Thong Song*
4. Could you be in a relationship that is not monogamous? Why or why not?
Yes, been there and done that. Quite a few times.
(I think this is the first yes we’ve had since I answered these questions!)
5. True or false: it is rude for a man not to call the woman the day after he slams for the first time.
That all depends on the nature of the circumstances obtaining wrt the seduction.
6. If you were alone in your girlfriend’s house, would you snoop?
No. You either trust the one you’re with or you don’t.
7. What is your favorite sexual position?
Any that makes her call out for all of the Prophets.
8. Name the most interesting place you have had sex.
Hmm. I’d have to say a part of Fairmount Park, many years ago. Very au natural.
9. Picture your most memorable partner in your mind and share what made that person so memorable.
See, if I do that, the others reading along might be quite upset with me…
10. Blow job or hand job?
Good question! A highly skilled Woman makes it hard to settle on just one.
11. What is something you have always wanted to try, but haven’t yet?
To sit in on a Prime Minister’s Questions session in the House of Commons.
12. Best piece of relationship advice you’ve ever been given?
An oldhead mentor of mine many, many moons ago told me, “Son, a Woman can tell within a few minutes of meeting you whether she wants you to f*ck her or not. It’s your job not to mess it up”. Truer words could not have been spoken.
13. What is your favorite thing to do to your partner? What is your favorite thing to have done to you?
Full body massages. Both ways.
14. What is the most sensitive spot on your body?
I’m sorry, that information is restricted to authorized personnel.
16. What is your most embarrassing sexual experience?
Having two girlfriends nearly come to blows once – over lil ole me.
17. What’s your fatal flaw in relationships?
Being too nice.
18. If you had a super power what would it be? Why?
Well, let’s see…I’m already imbued with the Power of the Force, so, what else would it be…I suppose it would be having the Flames of Faltine at my disposal. Why? Because its really cool to have my head on fire.
19. What turns you on?
The same things that turn most Brothas with a pulse on: Sistas with pretty faces, rotund backsides, thick thighs, etc, et al.
20. Which habit of your most annoys the people you date?
They say that I’m a know-it-all – but I’m not. Really, I’m not!
21. What would the title of your autobiography be?
Obsidian: A Life (In Three Volumes)
22. What’s the first thing you notice in a woman?
The symmetry (or the lack thereof) of her face.
23. How often do you believe it is normal to want sex?
Hmm…I believe normality is determined by the hotness of the Woman in question; the hotter she is, the more normal for a Man to want to hit it.
24. If your friend was cheating, would you tell their partner?
No. I consider that an internal matter. Having said that, I would also be compelled to severe my association with him, on the grounds that he has indulged in what I consider to be Dark Game, and Obsidian don’t get down like that.
25. Name three famous women you’d put a hurting on if you had the chance.
Jill Scott
Toccara
Serena Williams
26. What qualities do the people you date tend to have in common?
They all tend to be bright, vibrant, cultured ladies.
27. Do you know what a dirty sanchez is?
Unfortunately, yes, I do.
28. Have you ever been caught masturbating?
What is that?
29. What are your must-have qualities in a partner?
She MUST have a pretty face, she MUST have thick thighs, she MUST have an ample behind, and she MUST pay rapt attention to my philosophical/sociopolitical/human social relations-based observations.
30. What are your dealbreakers?
Uncouth Women. Period.
You know what to do – weigh in and heckle and whatnot in the comments.
And don’t forget to nominate me for the Black Weblog Awards. Just check out the instructions right here.

couth needs to be used more.

oh and any thirty tuesday? i know im sleepy..i thought i mis-counted.
Everyone gets to choose 10 out of 30 questions; but only special people answer all 30.
*points to self*
I am just going to add myself into the 30 for 30 queue… #KThanks & #Bye
Oh Obie (nickname stolen from Tes)
first i was surprised that your answers were short and sweet… pleasantly surprised… i like it
second.. i find it hard to believe that you are too nice in a relationship.. how is that possible when you’re utilizing game tactics every which way??!?!?!?!
third and lastly… who says you think you’re a know-it-all?!?!?!
Yoles there are 30 questions here to make up for the succintness of his points. Lol.
Nice post Obi.
Flyy.. you are right… good catch
Thank you! That’ll be $500.
O.
@Yoles,
Ahh, I see Little Tes’ monkier for me is starting to catch on, eh? What can I say. It does have a kind of homey ring to it, don’t it?
O.
God, I like your avis…
I find it amazing that some women need to size up men better…
Brother O, whatever he says he is, BELIEVE HIM
Sa-weet and to the point!
I find it hard to believe this extremely nice guy gets folks panties in a bunch over on VSB,lol
He’s running game.
O.
Exactly! Please tell all these good folk that Obsidian is 100% utterly, totally and completely harmless…
O.
Nice post even if I don’t believe half of it. Pleasantly surprised with the exception of him being considered a “legend” at VSB. Well…if you consider how the devil is a legend on earth then so be it. Touche.
O.
Nice hearing from this ghost in the machine that I’ve heard so much about…this was succinct and pleasant, I enjo- *screeeeeeching tires* WAITADAMNMINUTE! #28?!? You trying to say you do not currently and have never masturbated?

“Ghost in the machine”, huh? Hmm – I like it!
The pic of that little girl is a hoot, too!
O.
Hilarious how you tripped us up with the succinct answers. Because when I heard you were being featured AND answered all 30 questions, I knew I was in for some “War and Peace”-esque ish.
And um… your answer to #28 HAS to be in jest, right? Folks who don’t spank monkeys are not to be trusted. It is law.
lol… If I didn’t love you, I’d say “eff you Cheekie..”
LOL. *hugs*
Hahaha if you said “eff you Cheekie” she’d say “No eff YOURSELF Nick”.
Because people who don’t eff themselves have issues.
unless it’s given up for lent purposes you mean?
LOL, well played, Maxie.
LOL
O.
I was scared to read this…didn’t want to be put to sleep…but he kept it short. Who knew?
You’re fired.
O.
Hi Max,
Much appreciated on the chance to participate in a bit of Q&A! I owe you a couple. Wait for my pingback(s). Thank you.
O.
I wouldn’t hang out with the guy for long because there are too many similarities…
Need to hang out with more thugs…
