quite frankly, I don't give a rats ass one way or the other. A bunch of overdressed Holywood sycophants with too much money on their hands excites me about as much as a bucket of warm gorilla piss.

2. *raises hand*
I could give a shit about a bunch of silly, overpaid cultural commissars awarding themselves.

I'm still gonna watch Jon Stewart, though.

13. The guns to our heads made us do it
That and it's all anybody wants to talk about tonight. And no Simpsons, either. And nothing good on Court TV. Which means I have to either 1) use my overactive imagination to entertain myself or 2) start inane threads about the Oscars.

Eh, I got nothin'. :P

15. Since punk died, we have only one avenue for expressing our disaffection,
and this is it.

Do not poo-poo it.

Next you'll try to tell us that Snoopy died.

22. it seems like the last one wasn't even that long ago
i don't have a problem with them or anything. but i'm not all that interested in it. i do want to watch Jon Stewart, but i don't want to sit through the speeches and all that.

i do enjoy looking at the fashion though.

39. No interest.
Once upon a time, maybe, but twig women, stuffed suit men and self-congratulations don't do it for me anymore.

I'll try and pick a paint color for my living room instead. (Anything but tan.)

42. I just don't care
I don't have much interest in popular media except in a very superficial way. Oddly, I enjoy some celebrity gossip because people and relationships interest me in general. Hi everybody.:hi:

44. Oh, good
A thread for the rest of us, where we can find acceptance among our own kind.

Others will follow — and perhaps someday we can walk in daylight with our heads held high, without fear of what others might say or do.

Weeeee shaaaaaallll oooooveeeerrrrrrrcoooooooommme...
