LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL.
That was stoopid. Of the hook, yo.
That brought to mind the clip where Steele congratulates rappers like Chuck D for coming out of the "ghetto."
Chuck gets this funny look on his face: "Man, I'm from Long Island."
And ... nice use of the all-white House of Pain. Marky Mark probably would have been a bit too much.
The sad part is, that might not end up being a parody.
BWA HA HA HA
Where do you find this stuff?
Hilarious.
Holy crap that was hilarious.
"My homey Charlie Crist"? OMG.
Chuck D's response is identical to one by Eddie Murphy in an SNL skit when Louis Gosset Jr. was the host (back in the 80's). Set in the projects, Murphy played the gang-banging son, and Gossett was the struggling father, yelling at him that his mother would be so ashamed of him if she were still alive. Murphy yells back that with all the dad's drinking, Mama worked herself into an early grave.
Then both actors stop suddenly, and Murphy says, "You know what? This scene really sucks!" Gossett responds, "Yeah, it does! Why do they always think black people live like this? I didn't grow up like this. Did you?" Murphy responds, "Nope! I grew up on Long Island! And I love my father! Right, Pop?" And his father stands up in the audience and shouts, "I love you, too, son!"
Then Murphy and Gossett decide they're not going to finish the scene and walk off the stage arm in arm, stopping on the way to yell at the musicians playing the African drums in the background to shut up. I loved it!
(Eddie Murphy's career has seriously declined, but he was fantastic back on SNL).
I am toast forever. Mike, it is not easy to become a member of the party of horror of shamelessness. Have fun baby!
