Yes, by now you’ve noticed that there’s a new comment system ’round here. It’s called Livefyre and it IS fya. Now, you can follow comments in real time, “like” them, Tweet and Facebook them, see the people you talk to in cute little tiny boxes and if there’s a new comment while you’re scrolling through the ones, you get a little gray cloud that tells you, you click it and it swooches you to the new one.

You’re welcome.

This format is perfect for BB&W, because the comments are what make this blog rock hard like Chris. (Not me, the other Chris. The famous one).  We are a free-thinking group and share ideas with the occasional peppering of trolls. Yes; you might have to sign in or some such thing, but it TOTALLY worth it because you’ll be in with the cool people.

Shout out to Joe Bertino for working overtime to get the 34,000+ comments integrated into the new system. Go on, with your Swedish girlfriend-having self. ;-)

Wow, Chris, that dress could start a fire!!!!!! I've known for years that non-BM, especially WM were attracted to BW. But it 's was always khard to make some BW believe you don't just have a case of jungle fever. And all your friends thought that too. You had to really like the girl and be persistent. I guess a girl can't be too carefull. But it would help if you girls were more just a little more receptive to a non- BM

I put this reply to the wrong post. Sorry everybody. It should have been sent to. Post with Christelyn's white hot dress. If I were around you in that dress I'd have been a goner.

A Friend It's OK; the dress caused some temporary neural overload, which will be remediated with a proper sleep cycle over the next 24 hours, LOL. Chris' attire sometimes evokes that reaction.

joebertinoChristelyn dharait I'd be more than happy to help if y'all ever need anything. Plus, after reading a few other posts, it seems like the nerdy brothers get a lot of love around here, so I'm gonna keep totin' my pocket calculator with pride ;)

Christelyn 3210 pts moderator

You should! We LOOOOVe nerds! Tell your friends--this is nerd-loving central ;-) JMattHicks joebertino dharait

Christelyn joebertinodharait ha ha I don't know though Christelyn, word on the street is you were giving my main man Joe Bertino a hard time at BlogWorld! What was that all about?!

Christelyn 3210 pts moderator

LOL When I comes to my blog I'm big, serious boss-lady. I'd spent like an hour at the kiosk, and missed some other booths because the event closed, so I was peeved we couldn't get it working when I wanted it to. I'm a brat. I know. JMattHicks joebertino dharait

JMattHicks 1742 pts moderator

Christelyn joebertinodharait LOL Naw naw Chriselyn I wasn't talking about that, I was talking about his beautiful Italian-Swedish interracial relationship! You see my mom is white, dad is black and my wife's parents are as well, so we all gotta stick together you know! ;)

Christelyn 3210 pts moderator

Boo! Those are races, their nationalities! But the swirl of any flavor is a beautiful thing! JMattHicks joebertino dharait

Christelyn JMattHicksdharait Haha, this is too funny. I love it.

Christelyn 3210 pts moderator

Don't you go "liking" that comment! It was a typo! I meant to say, those "aren't" races, they are nationalities! JMattHicks joebertino dharait

JMattHicks 1742 pts moderator

Christelyn joebertinodharait LOL I was trying to be NICE 'cause I can dig that "swirl of any flavor" mantra.

But I gotta ask, how are they not races?!

Christelyn 3210 pts moderator

You like it here, don't you? lol Actually, "race" really doesn't exist--technically, there's only one race--the human race. When the Human Genome Project was concluded, essentially all humans are 99.9% the same. I guess we should address phenotypes instead of race. JMattHicks joebertino dharait

JMattHicks 1742 pts moderator

Christelyn joebertinodharait Maybe a little ;)

And I can dig. Kickin' some knowledge!

Dhara Mistry 200 pts moderator

Christelyn Race, nationalities, phenotypes? All this is going above my head! ;) And don't let these two ( JMattHicks joebertino ) trouble you Christelyn. They can be brats sometimes ;) Apologies for not dropping by earlier. I've been under the weather since 3 days. Glad to see Livefyre up and running smoothly here! We're very very excited to be a part of your community :)

Yay, it works! Unfortunately, it's blocked on my job computer, so I'll continue to lurk and chime in whenever I have a moment. Keep up the great work.
