So every year in high school, we'd have this state student congress thing where students from all over the state would all write bills and resolutions and form commitees and debate them and use parlimentary procedure and all that shit. And to get ready for it, our debate team would have our own student congress beforehand, like a practice student congress (A practice fake congress, I guess) and before we started the serious shit where we take ourselves seriously, we would have a silly session for a few days (So I guess a warm-up practice fake congress). The bottom line is, it was an excuse for us to right very formally worded bills and resolutions about absurd shit.
And one year, I wrote a bill mandating that all men's rooms either have an odd number of urinals or have partitions dividing them. That was pretty great.
I think that anecdote may have been better if it hadn't required three times as much backstory as there was story.
Don't you hate that?
Sometimes I'll type up like a three-paragraph story and then be like "wait, the payoff for this isn't worth the setup" and then not post it. Abortions.
One day i was relating some anecdote to Jordyn and halfway through, I realized there was no payoff, so, mid-sentences, I just said "You know what, I just realized this story doesn't go anywhere," and stopped.
It wound up being pretty funny.
Mine just stops listening after the first ten words and then I have a good old time telling myself the story.

Man this one time me and a couple of my friends were walking through this neighborhood at about 1 am kind of lost and this group of black dudes came up to us and were like 'What're you white bitches doin around here?!' Why couldn't they just call us bitches?

Because they were trying to intimidate you into apologizing for all your opression.
I'm hoping for a career in music so I am weighing the options of selling my soul (and copyright!) to a big label or just self publishing or going with a small indie label but I dunno. It really depends on where I want to go.
My advice: create something people want to listen to first, worry about how you're going to cash in on it second.
If you never make it past step 1 then you won't have to trouble yourself with step 2.
Why the fuck would white people know what it is? The term itself isn't even remotely representative of what it apparently means.
That being said, I find high yellows more attractive. Jada Pinkett Smith and Halle Berry are hot. I can't think of many dark skinned black people I find as attractive. Not off the top of my head anyway.

High Yellows technically aren't the ones that are half-white. (Halle Berry)
EDIT: Allow me to clarify a bit, I mean like blacks that are just really light without significant white genes.

Man, this High Yellow business is pretty stupid.

you're = you are
your = belonging to you
their = belonging to them
there = not here
they're = they are
It is ridiculously stupid. That type of discrimination that is so prevalent with modern black youth really pisses me off. I can't count the number of times I've been called a "coconut" for wearing Express Mens clothes and naturally avoiding virtually all types of slang. (English major here)
That be when a brother try to claim he down even though one of he parents had blond hair and the other was half black, but he perpetrating like he the hardest, downest thug on the block.
Jawad going to set up there acting all down with the motherland when he high yellow trying to pass like Sinbad.

Homeland... Were they all NOT born in America? Maybe instead of being African Americans, they can just be americans... but then, I'm racist for saying that.

Wait...
White people don't know what that means?
Seriously?
I can't explain it very well but here's a link to urban dictionary.
