Four hours left and I’m off for NINE DAYS!
smiles for miles, baby.
Oh, yeah – i’m super jazzed not only because I’ll get cute butts because of pride, we’re also going tonight to watch cute butts on screen!
and on a side note.
While he was on SNL, I found Dennis Miller funny. When he was off SNL (and I went to college, grew up, etc) I have progressively found him to be dumb. Others would listen to his humour and say “he’s so smart.” Yeah, maybe to dumb people he seems smart, but he really isn’t, he just uses large words quickly enough for you not to realize he doesn’t really understand them.
This bothered me a bit, because I thought I was just being a snob.
However I am vindicated. I can now dislike him completely. Being unfunny and annoying is one thing, but being FUCKING EVIL is another. Dennis Miller, I hope you shake hands with Strom Thurmond really soon. Ok, so I don’t hope he dies, that would be wrong. I do hope, however that he is later compelled to eat the fruit of his evil. Vindicated.
I’m glad to read that some people are asking Bush where the weapons are. (We keep seeing polls that say a fairly decent percentage of Americans actually think said weapons have been found.) Over here, Blair and his ministers are being grilled about the ‘dodgy dossier’, and they’re trying to make the BBC apologise for accusing them of ‘sexing it up’ — you know, the dossier that was plagiarised from an 11-year-old Ph.d dissertation…
Knowing you read my journal makes me cringe due to my spurious grammar. Then I remember it is a journal written quickly while at work. This does not appease my guilt. 😀
Oh, don’t. My entries are written quickly without much editing… Life is short. 🙂
A couple of weeks ago, someone posted a link to a site with the Dennis Miller of 1986 interviewing (and berating) the Dennis Miller of 2003. It was quite funny and accurate. Wish I could find the link.
But yeah, no arguments from me.
That would be cool because it my help me answer the question, “Did DM become un-funny, or did I become un-dumb?”
He became un-funny. Stupid, nasty man that he is.
Oh, btw, full frontal male nudity in 28 Days Later. Just fyi.
it’s been awhile since I’ve caught his act but I’ve always found Dennis Miller amusing. His rant on civility is great. I guess I look at him as a comedian first, political satirist second.
If you hate everyone who backs Bush do you just automatically hate everyone in the military and everyone over sixty?
I can’t imagine that the president-un-elect will un-win again. He sucks and the lack of evidence in Iraq is a big, rotten-egg in his face.
I hate GW. hatehatehate.
But I like DM. 🙂
well, I found DM boring and banal before I found him a pile of worthless shit because he is involved in raising money for our current criminal in office (who along with his advisors and cronies should be in a federal pound me in the ass prison.)
So It was just the “ah!” I now can have a reason to find him a worthless bastard as well as a worn out hack. It was first his work, then the man. I’d still piss on him if he were on fire though – I am a humanitarian after all! 😀 heehee
And I don’t hate everyone who backs bush. I pity the ignorant, I disagree with the regular joe, I hate those in power who _should_ know better who use their influence to support him (DM, Ben Stein, David Horowiz, etc.)
And certainly I don’t have any different opinion of those who do like DM’s humour. I just think you they bad (relative) taste in jokes. 🙂 Me disliking DM as a person now is separate from his humour. If he were funny, I’d call him a funny worthless fuck.
I guess my impression is that his increasingly conservative stance has soured you on someone you had some grudging respect for at some point. Now he’s is a pariah to the liberal community.
I’ve always thought his comedy is hit-and-miss and I’m disappointed that someone who’s always been the voice of independence seems to have polarized his views. But I don’t seem to be able to relate to the vitriolic assessment you’ve made of him.
(I still think he’s a pretty funny guy, in spite of whatever tragic fascist-christian-rightitudes he’s now displaying)
My level of drama and vitriol (when addressed in this way) usually go up in level to how insignigcant the events are.
I gues I could say that better by “I’m over-reacting on purpose because it’s fun and it’s not really important, so I can be silly and hyberbolic.”
I mean he’s just a commedian, so it’s fun to be all virtiolic. I think I may just be a drama queen, but when the argument is serious, I get serious so I’m taken seriously?
