In The Mix/September 15

…beware the Ides Of September…

I must have seen about 25 mostly simular variations on this very joke since yesterday afternoon.  Y’all can stop telling it now.  Yeah, it was funny but between Facebook and Twitter, man, everybody’s done heard it within 10 minutes of the first time you said it.

Speaking of Kanye, that bastion of morals, ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY (yeah, I’m being sarcastic) ponders if Jay Leno went too far when he asked Kanye what would his late mother would have said about his act-a-drunken-fool moment at Taylor “Tay-Tay” Swift’s expense at the VMAs the other night.  If Kanye’s mom was anything like my moms (hell, practically anybody’s mom, including Tay-Tay’s) she would have ripped into him like it was Shark Week:

“Go sit your black ass down somewhere because I didn’t raise no damn disrespectful idiot.  You acting even worse than your cousins from Tampa when they stole those pork ribs right off the grill at the family reunion that time…yes, you acting ghetto as hell, boy!  And, while I’m here, when you getting married, huh?  And what’s the deal with that heffa you be hanging out with lately?

Stand down, Gladys, I got this…Is her mama still alive?  What’s wrong with her eyes?  She look like a stunt double from Salem’s Lot.

Everytime I see you two, you either going in or coming out of a department store.  That girl is like fixing an air conditioner in the penthouse suite in Trump Tower, high maintenance, boy.  You need all the money you can get to keep that bedussy on your arm and you gonna go messing that up by running up on a white teenager on national TV.  Is you crazy?  Fool, you had me sweating worse than the last hot link in Al Sharpton’s refrigerator.  We done over come but we ain’t over that much you can bum rush some teenaged country singer like that.  I don’t care how drunk you was, you ain’t never too drunk to get your ass hung.”

Okay, you get the point.

I guess now West is going to take time off to put his ish together. Whatever.

Kanye, dude, do us all a favor, stop blaming your moms dying for you acting a fool so much, you were doing some of that ish before she past away and until folks started booin’ dat ass, you were cool with running around doing stupid s*it and being a silly dick.

I recall when Prince was doing his trippin’ back in the day and doing dumb s*it like becoming THE ARTIST FORMALLY KNOWN AS PRINCE.

That lasted until THE CHECKING ACCOUNT FORMALLY KNOWN AS FULL.  It’s amazing how quick folks will get with the program once them wallets start taking hits.   All that booing and hissing at Kanye got his ass now wanting to chill for a sec.  Indeed.  That’ll do, pig, that’ll do.

Same dress, huh.  Who wore it better? Well…Hips Don’t Lie. All jokes aside, somebody’s stylist is going to die for not running a check to see who was wearing what.

Congress is debating whether Joe Wilson should be “scolded” for loud talking the President Of The United States last week.

*sidebar* When does “off the record” not mean “off the record”?  When you’re the President Of The United States, silly!

The President called the rapper (Kanye West) “a jackass” in an off-the-record comment during a CNBC interview yesterday, but the comment became public when it was tweeted by ABC’s Terry Moran on Twitter, Politico.com reported Monday night.

An ABC statement explains: “ABC News employees prematurely tweeted a portion of those remarks that turned out to be from an off-the-record portion of the interview.”

Back to Massa Joe Wilson; I don’t know what’s to debate, he needs more than a “stern” talking to.  I know some folks who could give a proper attitude adjustment:

Boo-yah.

Finally, the trailer of my favorite Patrick Swayze movie (no it isn’t TO WONG FOO, THANKS FOR EVERYTHING! JULIE NEWMAR not that there’s anything wrong with that…)
