Worst AZN EVR! - Stephen Colbert

Worst AZN EVR! - Stephen Colbert

   I know this is waaay late, but I had to include Ching Chong Ding Dong on the Worst AZN EVR list.
   I've been a Colbertian since '06. He's the only comedy I watch, so I wasn't offended by Ching Chong bc I understood his intent.

   That said, I think he may have pushed it too far with the Ching Chong foundation.

Last Ching Chong appearance
   Imagine something similar done w/ a black character, making fun of the fact that the stereotype even existed w/ that very character some kind of Uncle Tom. I guess Uncle Ruckus on the Boondocks is this type of character.

   It can B done, but it's a very thin & high tightrope to walk, especially without a safety net. Tarantino managed this ever so skillfully w/ Django Unchained, which could have gone horribly wrong.

   The CancelColbert movement scared the shit out of him & I don't think we'll see Ching Chong evr again.

Haiku Art Review: Erik Jones by Yellowmenace

Defined by geometry
Color dominates

"..the forms are consuming the figure. Not in an aggressive or obtrusive way but more like wearing clothes that are alive. Clothes that revere you, they breathe with you.”

   I'm pretty sure Erik has been watching Kill la Kill in his spare time ;)
