Delusions of Blandeur: Chapter 8

Thursday, January 7th, 2010

I spend way too much time pumping the NPR. I mean that shit just clangs in my place. I’ve even got a loopt podcast of Doualy Xaykaothao reports that I let spin all night. That shit even keeps the ASIMOs awake. Think about that–They’re robots, they’re plugged in, and they still can’t get any recharge time.

But that isn’t what’s important. This is what is: I was stoked to hear them call out James Cameron and his new movie.

Basically you’ve got Neda Ulaby just killing it on the vocals here, busting up Avatar and some new “Tik Tok” song. Previous to this broadcast I had never even heard of the song, but it sounded like pop schlock. Then last night I had the pleasure of catching Ke$ha on Conan.

Fuck me.

I knew, as soon as people started hyping Avatar, I wanted nothing to do with it. Over blown, ego-stroking, poor excuse to of a movie. I’ve been pretty opposed to James Cameron for a while now. Sure I saw Abyss, but that was only because I heard there were some boobs in it. Aliens was a good flick, but seemed to be way to similar to a movie I had already seen. It was called Alien and Ridley Scott had already kicked some ass. And I’m proud to say I’ve never seen Titanic. Nevermind the fact that I think LDC and Kate Winslet are great actors, I knew the movie was bound to be 100% trash.

So you’re going to tell me Avatar was a good movie. I’m sure you’re still sleeping on that Captain EO joint. Avatar fans are typically the same poeple who are pumping KISS-FM or whatever you pop radio station is. And you love this Ke$ha track. Seriously, had I known in my younger days that all it took to get girls excited was a string of hyperboles, I wouldn’t have spent so much time skateboarding. It crap music, your personality on Conan’s show was crap, and your name is spelled with a dollar sign.Not even three of them. It basically means you’re shallow and broke.

Plus you cannot, really spell your name like that. I learned this when the state of Vermont wouldn’t let me legally change my name to 4700, because I refused to budge on the use of Arabic numerals.
