THE END.

IMPEACH KANYE!

Let me first just say that I am not the greatest fan of our treatment of African-Americans in the early years of our country.  But after last night’s in-shockingly-poor-taste rant from Kanye “I Haven’t Seen A Speech I Won’t Interrupt” West, I think it may be time to reassess that - at least for ONE man.

If you weren’t watching, Kanye had the TEMERITY to jump on stage at the VMAs (more commonly known as the “Video MTV Awards”) and say that this one singer should have won the VMA’ey (more commonly known as the “Astronaut Award”) instead of the one who ACTUALLY WON IT!

Now I don’t know about you, but in America we have a longstanding tradition that, if a person goes to all the trouble to win one of the many awards that we give out to people, we must sit there and listen to them thank a list of people.  No matter WHO it is.

Yes, Taylor Swift decided to use her moment in the sun (one of many, I hope!) to thank Myspace and Twitter.  But when you were twelve, who else would YOU have thanked?

And this isn’t the first time Mr. West has engaged in such SHOCKING BEHAVIOR.  He had the GALL to interrupt Mike Myers’ beautiful speech during the Hurricane Katrina benefit just to remind us that George W. Bush hates black people.  Yeah— we KNOW, Kanye!  That’s why he ran for President!

And now THIS?  If we don’t stop him now, WHEN?  When he jumps on stage during a People’s Choice Award to tell US, the AMERICAN PEOPLE, that our choice was WRONG?  When he jumps on stage at a KIDS’ CHOICE AWARD to tell us our CHILDREN ARE WRONG???   THIS MUST END!

Can we forgive him?  I’m not sure.  I suppose if we can forgive a man for building a theme-park and video arcade in his house just to lure children, and for insisting they drink enough alcohol to get them drunk, and molesting perhaps thousands of them, including some of the stars of our favorite childrens’ movies, then perhaps we can forgive Kanye.  His jams are good enough that I can see that happening.

You know what? FUCK NO.  I will NEVER FORGIVE KANYE.  Even if he dies and Janet Jackson takes to the stage to beautifully replicate all his famous dance moves (such as “The Kanye Shuffle”), I will sit there and scowl at my television.  And my TV will KNOW that I am scowling at it.

Until then, PLEASE take to the very same social networking sites that Taylor Swift mentioned in her (thanks to the classy Ms. B!) finally-aired speech to let the world KNOW what kind of person Kanye is!

MORE IMPORTANTLY, I think we ALL know this means we must boycott the Jay Leno show tonight.  Kanye is one of Jay’s first guests.  We must let him know that, if this is the kind of booking atrocity he plans on making, we will NOT watch his show even ONCE.  No matter HOW MUCH WE WANT TO SEE THE NEW SET, OR SEE CELEBRITIES RACE AGAINST EACH OTHERS’ TIMES ON THE NEW RACETRACK IN SPECIALLY-BUILT ELECTRIC FORD FUSIONS.

This is one “HEARTLESS” singer that should not “DRIVE SLOW,” but should drive FAST - away from my record player!  He “CAN’T TELL ME NOTHING” about his “NEW WORKOUT PLAN,” because this is one “AMERICAN BOY” (Kanye did the rap verse) that is no “CHAMPION” in my house!!!!

SPREAD THE WORD!!!!!!!!!

My new single - a parody of U2’s “Vertigo!”

“Comedy Death-Ray… has become one of the most prestigious nights of stand up in the country.”

Interesting LA Times Sunday Calendar piece on alternative comedy. They came to Comedy Death-Ray a lot and interviewed Scott Aukerman.

“And when [the audience laughs], the agents in the audience hear money.”

Okay, that’s gruesome, but the rest of the article is interesting.
