      Can we have a contest for the best youtube cover of that? I’ll throw in a copy of my book, the next AGR and the last AGR to start off the prize package. Also, that shih tzu deserves a best supporting actress oscar for that ponytail. You win this round, internet.

      jokes are jokes, and this one may crack a lot of you up, but i’d say it’s racist and sexist to attempt to ridicule your comment haters by comparing them to an embarrassing video of a black woman butchering a dreamgirls empowerment anthem. just my 2 cents.

      someone more entrenched in either of the causes mentioned would say, “that’s exactly the point, you wouldn’t even think of that.”

  15. Blake Butler

      of course they would

      they wouldn’t recognize sarcasm either, most likely.

      nor would they recognize that you are often one of the anons, and only switch into ‘stephen’ when you are saying something you feel ok with representing in your own name.

      ok i’m done

      I think the emphasis is more on the butchering of the song than on the singer’s race or gender. It’s a little odd that you interpreted it in the way that you did.

      That said, I have no idea what any of this is about, so who knows.

      get a grip, stephen. or stop gripping so hard, i think you’re cutting off the circulation to your brain or something. see what happens? what is going to happen? i just can’t take the suspense, just can’t wait to see what happens.

      oh lord, now see, look at the “headline” like post title, the ecstatic, self-enraptured tendency toward internet self-representation that the video connotes, the song itself which is all about the histrionics of hatin’ hilariously counterpoised with her fondly petting the dog, this isn’t about her being an african-american, it’s about the self-presentation of shit talk and pride. haha, i actually wish she was the new HTMLG contributor.

      I overreacted ‘big-time’ and was ’embarrassingly melodramatic.’ I’ve been feeling frustrated and depressed.

      Peace, Blake. I’m sorry. Congratulations on your nomination for the Believer award.

      I wonder how many people outside of the Bay Area, or California, maybe, know who Oscar Grant is. His name crossed my mind after the recent Berkeley “riot” post by Alexis (because the Oscar Grant situation got people to the street).
