Kool Keith: "Retarded people are more advanced than the normal people."

Extremly entertaining interview with Kool Keith from August on koolkeith.co.uk. Infinitely quotable. A few examples:
"I am just that retarded funk maker."

"I went out to Africa to see that they are banging on the bongos. You get on the train in New York , you see bongos. Everybody's banging bongos. We funky right now."

"You got your gun talking motherfuckers who just gun talk themselves to death. Then you got me. I am the piss man."
That's right, he's the piss man. He says his next project will be called "Pissy Pete the Bed Wetter".

I think digital rights management is a horrible practice and might even peacefully demonstrate against it if given the chance, but I doubt I'll ever be this upset about it.

Dude, you shoulda been there...

Don't worry if you missed the RFID tracking party @ San Francisco MOMA. Next year the State Department is throwing one, and we're all invited! Yeah, I know some people would rather stay home, but why not check it out? They're serving Chinese.

Retro 80's fad taking college kids by storm!

And speaking of 1984 here's SOS: Students for an Orwellian Society.

Remember what the leader says; if you're not happy, take happy pills.

I've never payed attention to the comedy short film site channel101.com. I love good sketch comedy, but the only thing I was exposed to really was House of Cosbys and it was way overrated IMHO. Utopia however, an ultra-campy take on 1984 and similar distopian sci-fi, is fucking awesome. If Equilibrium had been filmed for $12 it would look like this.
Also, The Most Extraordinary Space Investigations is really good. Sarah Silverman always amuses me. Jack Black plays the villian in Laser Fart #2 so that's worth a look too i spose, but watch Utopia first.

The President's pimp hand is strong.

Daily News Exclusive: Bushies feeling the boss' wrath
"'This is not some manager at McDonald's chewing out the help,' said a source with close ties to the White House when told about these outbursts. 'This is the President of the United States, and it's not a pleasant sight.'"
Yeah, I'd probobly be a bit testy too . It can't be easy to have people calling you "The Most Powerfull Man in the World!" Especialy when you know in your heart you couldn't competently manage a Pep Boys station.

I wonder if he's off the wagon yet.

The most intresting thing about this article is it's the first time I've read a report that cast's Bush as a "top". With bear's like Cheney and Rove up in there I always figured he'd play catcher.

First they divide, then they conquer, and later we all get to eat cake.

Saturday night race riot in Birmingham, England. So unbelivably stupid. A man had to die over this foolishness? Let me get this straight, black immigants and asian immigrants in pasty-white England (a country that still celebrates monarchy) are fighting each other?!!! Jesusfuckingchrist.

Come on people, won't you please help? Have you no heart?

Revolutionary Mathmatics

As the natural ideas of equality developed it was possible to conceive the sublime hope of establishing among us a free government exempt from kings and priests, and to free from this double yoke the long-usurped soil of Europe. I readily became enamoured of this cause, in my opinion the greatest and most beautiful which any nation has ever undertaken.

Yup, It's dumb. Real dumb. Looks like something White Zombie might have made 15 years ago, and they sound like a Judas Priest tribute band. No deathpunk™ here.

The Broadcast Flaggots

Speaking of fucked-up Hollywood politics:

20 congressjerks who want the Broadcast Flag -- give 'em a call and give 'em what for from Boing Boing.

This Cracker's Salute to Hollywood

For anyone with an IQ greater than their shoe size, it is completely obvious that 99.1% of Hollywood product is pure lama vomit. At least half of it borders on outright propaganda intended to pacify the will of the slave class. Is it any surprise that the subjects of race portrayed in American (and Americanized) film, television, and CD-ROM might not be reflected in a realistic manner? Huh, well is it?

Here some realities of race in Hollywood as seen through the eyes of one lame Midwestern white guy:

•Most small town / suburban whites never come in contact with minorities outside of work or Wal-Mart. Their ideas on different racial segments of our population are almost entirely based on media portrayals.

•Hollywood has invented a fictional “grey race” to portray minority characters in able to fit them comfortably within the entertainment universe. Network sitcoms are are especially guilty of this. The Cosby kids might as well have been able to fly and shoot lasers from there eyes.

• “Realistic” minority characters are usually broad characterizations that place zero emphasis on individuality. Of course everyone knows that.

•Everything on UPN is idiotic as fuck. Most TV and movies marketed to black or minority audiences are apparently written by the KKK.

Do these things even need to be said? Whites seeking more information on this subject are encouraged to visit the Steven Urkel Museum of Media History located in South Chicago.

Do I even have the balls to watch this?

American Eunuchs. I've been keeping an eye out for a torrent of this documentary for a while now. So far no sources have surfaced. Maybe that's for the best. Here's the trailer. Beware, not safe for work or anywhere else.

When the UPC Symbol Takes Over Completely.

Cover of the April, 1978 issue of MAD Magazine from Doug Gilford's Mad Cover Site. I thought it was pretty intresting, and not just because that was the month I was born.
