Yall gettin people fired now? You'd turn the video in because you didn't like what they said?

Oh my gosh..I can't. When you don't like someone enough to the point where you don't want them to EAT?...and you've never met them and probably live on the other side of the damn country...

jada1111 where you been at? :lol: I see that really pissed you off.

jada1111: I agree with some of the points that you have articulated in regards to manipulating someones job situation. However, in regards to the comments relating to her "lack of class": this video isn't this chicks first ride at this rodeo. I think we can both agree that her videos include tirades in which she uses more than a "few" curse words. These tirades, combined with the fact that she can't/won't formulate a sentence without cursing, sucking her teeth, among other things, comes off as lacking some sort of normalcy, etiquette , and decorum i.e. class. I get that these youtube videos may be one of her schticks.....but I think they're too much. And yes, I know I don't have to watch her videos and believe me, I generally don't, but the thread piqued my interest.

I completely understand that. Himay10nence isn't for everyone, but you also didn't threaten to send her videos to her job in an attempt to get her fired either.

It's one thing not to like somebody's vids, it's another to threaten their livelihood just cause you find them "beneath" you (not referring to you justicefighter).

Sour puss drama queen crybabies bother me more than someone like Himay10nence ever could, but others may love that type of personality and it's cool. There's someone for everyone on youtube.

There's but so many b*tches and f**ks and sh*ts I can take so I had to turn that video off but did she say she got fired???

I got the gist that folks from here (if it aint drama it's not lhcf) sent her messages about this thread and she was talking about it at work and her boss asked her about it and she showed him her youtube videos.

I didn't hear anything about someone sending folks personal info or getting anyone fired.

Now like I said I couldn't watch the video till the end BUT...to end all of the speculation where does she say she got fired?

I know they aren't messing with Himay?! She speaks her mind and I can respect that. I find her refreshing in a world where most turn up their noses at others like their 'ish don't stank.

Hey Mizz Brown! I still lurk every and now then. I remember when LHCF first got started and it has grown into a really great board. There are some excellent forums here with info you can't find anywhere else. I make sure that my $6.50 is ALWAYS paid. lol

Yeah, the part about wanting to get Himay10nence fired because of being "devoid of class and vulgar" really bothered me cause the woman is doing HER. If you don't like her or what she has to say, then don't watch. The funny thing is, if you were to substitute a gay man in her place, then everyone would LOVE her to pieces!

It's only cause she's a woman talking and acting the way she does that there is a problem. The woman is super funny and like she said, her EMPLOYER already KNOWS what she does and doesn't have a problem with it.

It's messed up that she knows almost everything about the poster who wanted to get her fired all because of her "ghettoness". Says a lot about THAT person, doesn't it?

God don't like ugly, but he sure loves himself some Himay10nence! LMAO!!

she didnt get fired. she said her boss already knows about the channel and is cool w/ it (i didnt even know that ppl could get fired for stuff like this... i aint ready to live in the real world yet lol). she said that ppl were PMing her about the poster in this thread who said theyd send her info to her job, and some trick a$$, triflin a$$ punk gave himay10nence all of the posters personal info (in case she was fired).

i feel like the poster already said that she wouldnt actually do it (whether you believe her or not...), so leave the situation alone. wtf are you causing more drama and doing high school sh*t for?!

no one should be involving themselves in ppl's real lives over some internet drama. unles there's something illegal going on, it will NEVER be that serious.

The Gist:
Someone from lhcf (Girl A) said to Himay that her stereotypical behavior is not right. She threatened to send the video to her boss...I *think* she even said himay could end up unemployed after the boss gets a hold of her YT channel/videos.

Himay's Response?

1) Her boss and her coworkers already know what she does on youtube.

2) Someone else from lhcf (Girl B) ratted out the first girl (Girl A) to warn Himmay that someone wants to get her fired. Then Girl B gives Himay Girl A's information (where she lives etc). And Himay basically says "your lhcf homegirl ratted you out, stop trying to mess with me"

No one got fired.

LOL! Sorry about that Ms-GG, but I was in a rush when I was posting.

I really wanted to comment the first time I read her post about sending the links to her job, but I said nah, stay quiet. Not important. It's only when she denied saying it that I felt the need to respond.

See, I know what it's like to be unemployed and not knowing where your next dollar is coming from. Struggling to make things happen and trying to control your sanity until things improve. Having to choose between buying food and toiletries is not a pleasant experience. I'm sure there are plenty of members on LHCF that are either going through the same thing or know people that are and probably in much worse ways.

The only good thing that came out of that experience was being forced to find cheap hair products to use and it curbed my PJ ways.

So to read how this poster wanted to see this woman get fired over some internet comments that didn't even concern her was too much for me. Like seriously, how dare you?

Then some people are saying that Himay10nence is not "classy" or "deviod of all class" all because of a few cuss words and derogatory comments (that again does NOT concern YOU), but I guess trying to get another black woman fired from her job in this economy is the definition of "classy"?

If so, then you can keep your "classy" and consider me "devoid of all class" as well cause I consider that mess the ultimate in foul. Just plain evil.

The worst part about it is Himay10nence made a youtube video commenting on a drama queen's "not getting a pamphlet and goody bag" at a nappy hair event cause "allegedly" the other naturals (4s) were looking her and down and making her feel not a part of the "sisterhood". *rolls eyes* Homegirl didn't just make ONE video about it, she had to make THREE all detailing this so called "disrespect" she's had to deal with "all her life". *violins playin*

Himay10nence may not be YOUR cup of tea and "not your type of sista", but she's MINE and obviously many others as well since people are sending her info on the poster who wants to get her fired.

Threatening to mess with people's money for trivial crap will catch you a bunch of enemies and sideyes, especially if said person is BLACK (regardless of whose type of "sista" she is).


Okay, littlelux (who, I think is the one that brought up the whole thing about employment) did NOT do anything to try and get highmaintenence fired from her job. Damn, the rumor mill sure is at work, this is like a game of telephone. I can't find the post, but she said something like "i wonder where she works, I'd send this to her employer in a heartbeat". That was IT. Now, people on here are making it sound like she called up her job or some sh*t.

And yes, Highmaintanence is totally classless. Obviously, nobody knows where she works to even get to call her boss up or anything so that 10 minute tirade going off on a stranger on the internet who has no way of affecting your life whatsover is completely trashy. Her mouth is filthy and she ought to be embarressed about the tripe she is putting out on the internet for all to see.

ETA: Damn, I'm reading thru the last page and it's like...this story has spiraled out of control. The girl DID NOT threaten to send the videos to her job. She did not say she was going to do that. I don't remember what her exact words were, but people are making it sound like she was looking thru trying to find where highmay works and sh*t--that was NOT the case. And *I* am the one that said she is void of any class or couth. NOT the person who made the comment about the job. And I stand by it. She is. I mean, come on, how many times did she say 'cum swallowin *****' in that video. Ugh, that is just so vulgar and disgusting. She has no damn couth. She's like some kind of rabid animal foaming at the mouth.

I really do wonder where she works because I find it hard to believe that any employer would be okay with her saying all the things she does in her videos. Even when you're off the job, you're still a representative of whatever company you work at. Although, if she's workin at McD's or something, I suppose that would explain it...

All is well with me
How could this possibly be that serious that one of you needed to get the entrance lady FIRED????
Whoever did is a sad, lonely, pathetic individual. Get a grip. If she was as rude as described, why not let Nikkii handle her business? You weren't even there!!! We are only going on Nikkii's account of what happened....
I know hair means a lot to us....but DANG!! You (whoever you are) need more people.

cami88 Basically, lol. I know how things go done on LHCF so I'm not shocked by this thread or how some people went wild with 1 aspect. A single sentence where I, in anger, said I'd email her boss such a link (and even in the context of the paragraph it was in it's not really a threat) became some member's personal crusade to save High Maintenance.

I'm sure folks will break out the gif's and such regardless but I'm going to attempt to spoil some of the entertainment regardless. I don't like people insulting blacks based on asppects of our physical being. I don't like it when it's done by whites or other blacks. You can believe Nikki or not, disagree with her or not but High Maintenance made a video railing against people of her own race who just happen to be lighter than her.

The fact is both sides of what either YouTuber was complaining about are offenses created in the black community as a result of slavery. High Maintenance video was targeted at the wrong community because while there are some perks she views women lighter as her getting and Nikki's complaints being void light-skinned women didn't create that system. White people did. The email comment was because I saw another YouTuber entirely change her persona when her sponsors were contacted and I realized this is merely an act for most. A means of being a comedian or actress.

But when you're insulting a good chunk of your community to play up that act...that's just sad. Like i said earlier in the thread i didn't find it funny when i heard Don Imus publicly call a group of black girls, 'Nappy-Headed Hoes' but if i look at High Maintenance's video title and say 'thats acceptable' than for me internally I am saying to everyone out side of me "It's okay to call me this, call us this." I don't find High Maintenance word's funny, mostly because I know there's a long procession of whites and injustices that created both her and Nikki's comments. And that those whites are laughing because so many years later their work was so successful. Except in the end neither women is going after the system, in the end were still just railing against one another. Hurt because of one another. And we all know what those actions are doing to our statistics as a people.

Instead of running wild with misinformation and entertainment (my words are right there for anyone to read) could we please focus on the real reason these types of videos WORK to get us angry at one another? Or that might be asking too much if we simply prefer to laugh, brush it off, and never let the true issue sink any deeper.

I think it's safe to say that if you say something mean it, don't bite your tongue for anyone. If you aren't ready to take the heat for your comments don't font them. Himay is apparently in a position to ride this drama to the wheels fall off but you Luxe are not. Just let it go.

I swear Youtube and Twitter are the devil incarnate.

I know you're not talking about me cause I don't know you. Don't know what you look like or where you stay. Whomever sent your personal info to her is someone you know PERSONALLY and I guess with your threat of wanting to send her video links to her job to get her fired or disciplined ignited something in her just like it did for me to finally come out of lurk mode after all this time. There's something about threatening somebody's livelihood that doesn't sit well with most folks, especially with jobs being so scarce.

Also, just what did you expect her employer to do? Make her take down the videos or fire her? What did you want the outcome of that situation to be?

You can believe Nikki or not, disagree with her or not but High Maintenance made a video railing against people of her own race who just happen to be lighter than her.

So did Nikki. Who do you think she was targeting in that video of her being disrespected "all her life" for being lightskin with long "pretty" hair? Other lightskinned longhaired folks?

The fact is both sides of what either YouTuber was complaining about are offenses created in the black community as a result of slavery. High Maintenance video was targeted at the wrong community

What "community" is she targeting? She didn't say.

The email comment was because I saw another YouTuber entirely change her persona when her sponsors were contacted and I realized this is merely an act for most. A means of being a comedian or actress.

Sponsors and employers are completely different animals. You can always get new sponsors, but getting a job that pays the bills and entails benefits is VERY HARD to come by these days even for the most educated.

But when you're insulting a good chunk of your community to play up that act...that's just sad.

Nikki insulted all women darker than her with kinky hair, so now what?

Himay10nence is the Redd Foxx of youtube. Her "vulgarity" doesn't offend my delicate sensibilities. I like it. I'd be disappointed if she suddenly came out speaking like Michelle Obama and wonder why she's being so fake now. She'd lose fans, because don't nobody wanna see a "calmed down and proper" Himay10nence.

Instead of running wild with misinformation and entertainment (my words are right there for anyone to read) could we please focus on the real reason these types of videos WORK to get us angry at one another? Or that might be asking too much if we simply prefer to laugh, brush it off, and never let the true issue sink any deeper.

I wasn't angry with either her or Nikki. Nikki had me rollin' my eyes and HM had me rollin' on the floor. No "anger" for neither one of them.

Who was mad at these videos being displayed or are you just upset at HM's?
