"Maybe mango raisin' ain't your thing."--from Steve Harvey, his morning show

This morning a woman called into the show, concerned about her mango trees, which weren't growing. Harvey, of course, with his ghetto humor, blatantly told her that she should abandon mango trees and try growing tomatoes or collard greens or beans - things she likes to eat, and things that would be easier to manage. The woman had been told by other mango tree-growing lovers that she had to beat the tree, so she did. She also had nails in it. Upon hearing this, Harvey yelled, "Could you do your job with a nail in you and a beatin'?"

He’s got a point.
