Wow. It's Been a Good Minute, Hasn't It?

So, it's been five months since I've posted an entry in this blog, but today, one of my subscribers (MissNayNay) reminded me of why I created this blog in the first place: to rant on certain things that piss me the fuck off.

So, without further ado, I give you: Why Black People Piss Me Off Sometimes (even though I'm black my damn self).

I came across this article on MediaTakeOut.com yesterday that featured Jay-Z and Kanye West's new single "Otis." Apparently the morons who run the site thought, "Well, gee, what can we do to make this story more interesting to our dumb-as-fuck masses? Oh, let's bitch and moan about how there aren't any BLACK women in this video! Yeah, that'll get 'em all riled up!!!"

I'm sorry, but where in the Constitution does it say that every celebrity has to only feature people of their own race in whatever project they're doing?

Where is the law that mandates the prohibition of mingling with people of other ethnicities and skin tones?

And why is it that people who do bitch about trivialities such as this have to bring up the whole "think about the young fans who look up to you" argument? As if that's supposed to just magically make people believe in what the fuck the former is saying?

All I'm saying is this: If you're that weak of an individual that you need to rely on a celeb for the validation of your self-worth, then you need to just turn in your humanity card.

The Following Post Contains Tiger Blood, Adonis DNA, and a Healthy Dose of Winning. Duh.

In the past few days, I have been sifting through many a news site (mostly gossip sites) because I'm totally lame and need something to prove that I am just as cool as the next brainless sheep-zombie.

While I was sifting through said news sites, I came across one thing (or person, I should say) each site had in common.

You know that guy who recently set a new record for gaining the most Twitter followers in 24 hours? That same guy who claims he's got tiger blood and Adonis DNA? That very same overpaid actor who recently referred to himself as the 'Malibu Messiah?'

Yep, I am, of course, talking about Charlie Sheen!

I just wish that he could refrain from making any more crazy-ass rant videos and making up some more phrases for normies like you and me and all the other celebs who are not as well-paid to abuse the living crap out of.

I wish these so-called 'friends' of his would put aside their attention whorish antics and get off their lazy fucking asses and help him.

But I guess that's just too much to ask of people who have the resources but don't want the responsibility that goes along with said resources.

MTV Is Srsly Severing The Arteries That Strengthened Them. Raise Your Hand If You're Shocked.

If there's one thing I love, it's snark. And the following post I'm about to write is chock full of it. So you might as well sit back, relax, and smoke a joint (or two), because I am about to bring it.

For the past five or so years, MTV has become so consumed with ratings and publicity that it's become normal for them to just churn out a reality show about just any damn thing. And the sad part? People will watch said reality show mainly for three reasons:

1) Because they've been conditioned to fall in love with anything that flickers across their little TV boxes

2) They don't really seem to realize that most of the things on their little TV boxes is not real, and

3) See numbers 1 and 2.

Like many people born in the 80's and 90's, I long for the days when MTV churned out programs that appealed to all music-lovers. Whether you were a hip-hop head (Yo! MTV Raps) or a metal-head (Headbanger's Ball), MTV had an artist that appealed to you.

And for those who loved a little comedy with a few musical references tossed in, Beavis and Butt-Head were there to do it all (with those contagious laughs of theirs) along with the cynical high-schooler we all know and love, Daria Morgendorffer.

And believe it or not, but The Real World wasn't always about random hot-tub hookups, overly dramatic screaming and crying every 4.6 seconds, and the abundant exchanges of bodily fluids and maybe an STD or two. And it sure as hell wasn't a starting point for the castmates to further whore themselves out on that gawd-awful show, Real World/Road Rules Challenge, with TJ "I seriously need to get a new career" Lavin as its host.

Which brings me to the point I'm trying to make: If people that likened themselves to Daria, Kurt Cobain, and Tabitha Soren were trying to get their foot in the door at MTV's corporate headquarters, chances are they would not get that far. Heaven forbid someone with the slightest modicum of rawness and individuality decide to fuck up the bubble-gum pop and manufactured immorality that MTV queefs out on a daily basis.

But let some even cheaper knockoff of Heidi Potato-Head or Parasite Hilton or even worse, one of those Jersey Whores (dear God, why have they not keeled over from cirrhosis or melanoma?) go up to a cameraman and be all "WHOO!!! I WANNA BE FAMOUS LYK SOOO FRIKKIN BAD, I'LL DO ANYTHING 4 REALZ!!!" Blammo, you got yourself a show.

Since when has it become cool for MTV to totally sever the arteries that strengthened them?
