So some teenage kid shouts a stupid obscenity that's become a 2014 version of bababooey, big deal.
Everyone reacts as if some horrible tragedy occurred; that a natural disaster struck the Bay Area and thousands of people got plunked.
I don't condone what took place; it's idiotic at best but it doesn't affect our lives one way or another, hell, I've seen and witnessed worse. The whole stupidity of it all kind of makes me laugh and will continue to make me laugh. We're talking about a kid who shouts some insignificant banter toward some obviously shaken reporter. She reacts as if her newborn suddenly was pelted by a meteor --sure, is it unsettling? Yeah, for about a nanosecond before calm is restored and everybody watching, including some of her comrades back at the station, laughs out loud. Like I said the whole thing is so ludicrous, so amateurishly dumb and non-neutered you have to bellow. I sure did.
It wasn't the first of these live-shot impromptu performances and it won't be the last. OMG, but Rich, he shouted, "F**ck her right in the pussy!" I love America. A place where expletive and obscenity is met with scorn, disgust and shock yet parents take their kids to the movies and see heads exploding, people getting murdered and maimed, over-the-top violence, yet some doofus on a bike yells pussy and the Bay Area is outraged and shocked. Come on people you're better than that, don't be Toledo.
You want real disgust and genuine outrage? My cable bill just arrived in the mail and it's over $300. Damn! You want outrage? I got your outrage. Chill folks, relax, worry about the big things in life. Forget about some kid that's probably eating some pizza right now and playing with his X-Box.

If this had occurred in the 70s, it would have with "Mr. Microphone" by Ronco. "Hey good lookin' we'll be back to f**k you right in the pussy later!"
ReplyDeleteUse Direct TV. Dish,is having serious problems and losing major channels. KPIX now says they will cut off Dish. CNN already did with every channel they have. ATT gets some good feedback from somebody I know- but the internet says otherwise.
ReplyDeleteI should be your manager..save ya bucks and I would have FORCED you to do "Check Please"..great publicity..and you said no??? Do you realize I've seen the Stanley Roberts episode at least FOUR times. It cracks me up when he calls people in Petaluma racist..
Those episodes last years. And you took a one shot on yahoo?.pishaaah.
It sounds like the kid would rather play with her X-Box...
ReplyDeletePart of the reason people feel disgust, Rich, is because they see their country going down the tubes. Our only hope is the next generation of young people. Seeing what that kid did does not really give us much hope. On the contrary, it further reinforces our fear that America is in its last days. I know that sounds very dramatic, but believe me, it's what a lot of people out there feel.
ReplyDeleteAre you finished yelling at that cloud (google that)?
DeleteAaron Rodgers said it best: "Relax"
Joachim Noah said it better: "Chill the fuck out!"
Excuse me Rich. Aren't you the one who posted the video on your blog? If you didn't think it was a big deal - which it isn't - why did you draw attention to it in the first place?
ReplyDeleteRich, you are spot on! These are the same reporters who shove a mic in the face of a grieving mother whose son was cut down by gang bangers or by some lunatic on the road. Suddenly when the tables are turned on them they act like their work is serious business. Please! You sensationalistic hypocritical turds. Look in the mirror before you act holier than thou!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI don't think anybody is crying over the reporter not being able to finish her story.
DeleteRather, I think most of us are a bit sad that this shit is what passes for comedy these days.
Excellent post at 10:35pm.
DeleteSome of the biggest phonies on planet earth are these "TV reporters" who act like they are curing cancer. With their voices lowered saying "sources tell us . . ."
When asking "Does anyone has a sense of humor?" when they do not find something amusing that you do is the same as saying "you don't get it" when someone does not agree on an issue. It is a weak response. I do not find it amusing, just annoying. "look at me" jumping on the latest bandwagon. For the record, I have a sense of humor and it tends to be on the sick side.
ReplyDeleteRich ,please stop the "Kars for kids ad "please I'll do anything
ReplyDeleteSounds like you have comcrap comcast for cable.
ReplyDeleteI just heard that Dish is bending CBS over the barrel
I thought the kid yelling the obscenity on TV was hilarious! Not because of what he said, but how he went about doing it. Look at the video... those shifting eyes, the nervous grin, shuffling back and forth, and then -- BAM! A hit and run! Gave me a good laugh!
ReplyDeleteFrom what I've seen, Michelle seems to be respectful of the people she interviews. That's why I felt bad for her having this encounter. As for that slimy Mexican kid on the skateboard, too bad he didn't fall off and break his neck!
