PETTY PERRY STRIKES AGAIN ...
Welcome to Another Episode of Petty Perry
Welcome to Petty Perry, where some folks just need a friendly reminder to mind the business that pays them. If you’ve ever watched somebody turn a Facebook post into a federal investigation or offer advice nobody ordered, you’ll feel right at home. Around here, we talk about everyday foolishness—the unsolicited opinions, the gossip dressed up as concern, and the people working overtime managing lives they weren’t hired to supervise. Pull up a chair and bring your sense of humor. You don’t have to agree with everything, but you might find something worth laughing about—and a little business worth leaving alone.
So, this is what happened. Note that I asked her to leave me be.
After a little research, I noticed that she was a business owner (like myself). I also noticed that she makes AMAZING HATS. For those church ladies like my grandmother, she would make a killing. I further realized that she didn't have a website. Nobody owned the domain. So I bought it.
Petty Perry strikes again.

MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS

LaTisha Jane Doe
Baby, I used to have commentary for everybody’s life like somebody put me on payroll. Then I started minding my own business and realized I was giving away energy I needed for myself. Now I’m less stressed, more focused, and finally handling things I kept putting off. Turns out, staying in my lane looks good on me.
James Doe, III.
Let me tell you something: I was so busy keeping up with everybody else, I had things in my own life sitting there waiting on me. Once I started minding my business, I learned to listen more, respect folks’ privacy, and make time for what brings me joy. These days, I don’t need to know everybody’s business. I’ve got enough of my own to keep me occupied.
Johnny Mae Doe
Honey, learning to say, “That’s their decision,” and keep it moving has done wonders for my peace. I still care about people, but caring doesn’t require me to open a case file or pull up a chair in every conversation. They can make their choices, and I can enjoy my day.
Top Ten "None of Your Business" Moments And What You Should Say
Your peace deserves more than a comment-section argument.
Don’t let somebody’s post ruin a day they weren’t even part of.
Disagreement doesn’t require a response.
You can scroll past an opinion without submitting a rebuttal. The internet will survive your silence.
A post rarely tells the whole story.
You saw thirty seconds of somebody’s life and suddenly you’re qualified to explain their entire situation?
Their relationship isn’t yours to investigate.
Missing photos, changed statuses, and unfollows don’t make you the lead detective.
Your curiosity doesn’t entitle you to private information.
“Why?” “Who?” and “What happened?” can all remain unanswered. You’ll recover.
Their appearance isn’t a request for your review.
A picture is not an application for permission to wear, weigh, or look a certain way.
Sharing gossip makes you part of the mess.
Adding “Is this true?” to a rumor doesn’t magically turn you into a journalist.
You have your own unfinished business.
That goal you keep postponing would appreciate some of the attention you give strangers’ profiles.
You don’t have to attend every argument you’re tagged in.
An invitation to foolishness is still an invitation you can decline.
Nobody hired you to supervise the internet.
Clock out. The comment section doesn’t offer a paycheck, benefits, or retirement.
