HUMOR: 10 WAYS TO KNOW IF YOU'RE REALLY BLACK ENOUGH

1. You know you're black enough if you understand that Black Man's Dressing isn't Caesar, ranch, blue cheese or Italian. Black Man's Dressing is hot sauce. That's right. We put that s--- on everything.

2. You know you're black enough if you've ever been all up in the Kool-Aid and don't know the flavor.

3. You know you're black enough if your mom ever bought you $1.99 sneakers at the supermarket and the neighborhood kids sang the bobos song until you threw them up on the wire down the block.

4. You know you're black enough if you know one verse of the Negro National Anthem, and you routinely lip synch the rest.

5. You know you're black enough if Vaseline was the household lotion, penicillin, bike-chain lubricant, hair grease and gladiator armor for girls.

6. You know you're black enough if anyone in your family has pictures of King, Kennedy and Malcolm X hanging on the dining-room wall.

7. You know you're black enough if you've ever seen someone catch the Holy Ghost, but drop their wig.

8. You know you're black enough if you watched that same person's holy shout morph into the Stanky Leg.

9. You know you're black enough if you threatened to call the Department of Human Services on your mom, and she handed you the phone.

10. Finally, you know you're black enough if in spite of - indeed because of - all those things, you turned out just a little bit better.

(Women) You know you're black enough if your name ends in la, na, qua, wa, or sha.

You know you're black enough when you wear every earring you own in your ear...

Or every ring you own on your fingers. Too funny.
