People wonder why I enjoy reading or hearing the dude talk. This blog post of his is a perfect example. He calls it how he sees it, and I have nothing but respect for that. Follow the link, and read the blog entry with a nice warm cup of cocoa.

Barack OBAMA “Blinkinblogs? Never heard of them.”

“In this candy colored ode to eugenics, live action “Sporticus” matches wits with the malevolent “Robbie Rotten” among various puppets in a stylized village populated by a credulous and generally helpless populace of Untermenschen, all of whom look to their blimp-dwelling hero as their unelected leader. . “Sporticus” is played by millionaire areobic champion and owner of an Icelandic gym franchise–who also produces, directs, designs the puppets–according to the credits, there’s nothing he doesn’t do–and the message, constantly reinforced throughout every episode is that the answer to all life’s problems is relentless exercise, narcissistic exhibitionism–personified by muscle flexing, gratuitous displays of aerobics, and taking credit for everything. We are all helpless bivalves, waiting for a well-cut Uber Man to rescue us in Lazytown. It’s a textbook showcase for apparent pathological narcissism.”
LMFAO. In fact, I laughed so hard I accidentally snorted diet coke into my primary sinuses.
Oh… and Dora and Diego are very taboo-ish.
If you liked that you’d love his books. Kitchen Confidential was nothing short of genius.
I’m so glad I finished my coffee before reading this, or I would be in the same situation!
He pretty much sums up my feelings on most of those shows, especially Hannah Montana/whatsherface. My daughter is allowed to watch and listen to that shite at her “other house”. I’d rather take a hot poker to my eyes and ears than allow it here.
I’m curious what his feelings (or anyone else) are on the perpetually stoned sloth on It’s a Big Big World. I know he’s a sloth, but COME ON!!!
