Jersey Woman Distracted On Cellphone Falls Through Sidewalk Hatch

According to KTLA — A woman was seriously injured when she fell through a New Jersey sidewalk access door while looking at her phone in Plainfield Thursday.

The incident occurred around noon as the 67-year-old woman was walking on Somerset Street in Plainfield, according to KTLA sister station WPIX in New York City.

Surveillance video showed the woman was using her cellphone when she flipped over the access door in front of Acme Windows, falling several feet into a utility room below where several people were working.

She was extracted by emergency crews and rushed to the hospital.

The woman, who has not been identified, is listed in serious condition.

Authorities say the doors were open for the repair of gas lines.

I smell a lawsuit, especially if there was not proper *WARNING* signage. In addition to it being a 67 year old lady, this could have easily been someone’s child. I know cell phones are distracting, but why would repair crews leave a gaping hole unattended in the middle of a sidewalk?

Atlanta Auntie Shirleen Prays For Women To Stop Being So Desperate For Love

Some of you may remember “Aunt Shirleen” from her pleas to stop women from wearing waist shapers after her neice “fell out at the Red Lobster on Candler Road.” Hysterical. See the video here. 

Aunt Shirleen’s cries to “stop training your waist-ess” sent the internet into hysterics and branded her skits (in my opinion) alongside Tyler Perry’s “Madea” and Rickey Smiley’s “Sister Bernice Jenkins” as one of the funniest southern women impersonations of today’s time. I can’t get enough! If you’re from the south, you know a Aunt Shirleen or you HAVE a Aunt Shirleen.

Well Aunt Shirleen is back! This time she is calling an emergency church meeting to pray for her friend Bernice’s neice “Proserity” who “took a whole church van” down to the jail to date some prisoners. 

I laugh, but I was actually approached a couple years back by a casting agency to participate in a show about prison wives. After a few casting meetings, I respectfully declined, mainly because I wondered what the outside world would think. According to Aunt Shirleen I would’ve been “desprut” for love. Soon after, me and my “prisoner” went on to split. Thank God I dodged a bullet with that one! Literally.
