Drinking Problem?

My homie Dobbygirl over at Spry On The Wall posted this and I am shamelessly swiping it because HOLY CRAP this is one of the funniest things I've seen in forever. I know what you're thinking I've seen cats drink from faucets big frickin deal. Uhhhh...you aint seen them drink like this.

It so funny I'm assigning it to you all as mandatory viewing. Trust me, you'll thank me later.

Shamefull

What Kayne did to Taylor Swift last night at the VMAs when she won her Best Female Video Award was unconscionable. How dare he stomp on her moment. After he hands the mic back to her she looks like she was punched in the gut. Listen, I'm no Taylor Swift fan but you need to be a decent human being and show this young girl, who worked VERY hard to get where she is, some respect.

Shame on you Kayne. You're a disgrace.


It should be noted that when Beyonce won the Video Of The Year Award, the last award given that night. She graciously called Taylor onstage, told her she deserved her moment and stepped aside so Taylor could finish her acceptance speech.



Now that's a class act. I hope Kayne took note of it but somehow I think it was probably lost on him. Even worse was the backhanded apology he issued after the fact.

“I’M SOOOOO SORRY TO TAYLOR SWIFT AND HER FANS AND HER MOM. I SPOKE TO HER MOTHER RIGHT AFTER AND SHE SAID THE SAME THING MY MOTHER WOULD’VE SAID. SHE IS VERY TALENTED! I LIKE THE LYRICS ABOUT BEING A CHEERLEADER AND SHE’S IN THE BLEACHERS! …………………… I’M IN THE WRONG FOR GOING ON STAGE AND TAKING AWAY FROM HER MOMENT!…………….. BEYONCE’S VIDEO WAS THE BEST OF THIS DECADE!!!! I’M SORRY TO MY FANS IF I LET YOU GUYS DOWN!!!! I’M SORRY TO MY FRIENDS AT MTV. I WILL APOLOGIZE TO TAYLOR 2MRW. WELCOME TO THE REAL WORLD!!!! EVERYBODY WANNA BOOOOO ME BUT I’M A FAN OF REAL POP CULTURE!!! NO DISRESPECT BUT WE WATCHIN’ THE SHOW AT THE CRIB RIGHT NOW CAUSE … WELL YOU KNOW!!!! I’M STILL HAPPY FOR TAYLOR!!!! BOOOYAAAWWWW!!!! YOU ARE VERY VERY TALENTED!!! I GAVE MY AWARDS TO OUTKAST WHEN THEY DESERVED IT OVER ME… THAT’S WHAT IT IS!!!!!!! I’M NOT CRAZY YALL, I’M JUST REAL. SORRY FOR THAT!!! I REALLY FEEL BAD FOR TAYLOR AND I’M SINCERELY SORRY!!! MUCH RESPECT!!!!!”

You're a vile excuse for a human and you'll never get another penny of my money.
