I’m looking at you, dynamic duo of madthoughts and kittykittybangbang.Comic book guys and gals: Kevin Smith wants you for his new reality show. “He’s not looking for actors, he’s looking for real people who live and breathe the comic book lifestyle. Must be funny outgoing and have a knowledge and passion for comics, superheroes, movie memorabilia and everything that goes with it,” read the recruitment post on Facebook.
I have the knowledge, the passion, but I wouldn’t say I breathe it.

And speaking of the Globes—watch this CollegeHumor clip, which plays the weird laugh Natalie Portman made during her acceptance speech on a loop, if you dare. (Warning: It will get stuck in your head. Ah-ha-ha-ha-ha! Ah-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!)
Yes.

I also spent some time talking to a young couple at the bus stop outside. The guy was a charming nerd with an autistic-savant memory of the TRL chart: “I hated that Britney’s ‘You Drive Me Crazy’ couldn’t get to #1, because Backstreet’s ‘Show Me The Meaning Of Being Lonely’ was in the way.” His girlfriend was nine months pregnant and chain-smoking. I took some pictures with them, signed some stuff, said goodbye as they got on the bus. Nice kids. As they pulled away, the bouncer said: “Those two are here every day. That bus takes them to the methadone clinic.
Dave Holmes, probably one of the best TV personalities to ever come out of MTV. via My Year Of Everything: THE GREAT BIG YES.
The above quote is a footnote to the first part of his retelling of how he go that job on MTV, the “I Wanna Be a VJ Contest.”
When I think about it, that contest was probably the last time I would be an active MTV watcher. It was near the end (perhaps just after) high school for me and things had changed so much on the channel, it wasn’t recognizable anymore.
When I started high school, it was Dr. Dre, Snoop, Nirvana, STP, and R.E.M. By the time I finished, it was boy bands, pop darlings, and whatever that shit Fred Durst was peddling. I was growing up, but the channel stayed the same age.
It still took a few years after that for me to finally kick the channel out of my system permanently, but this contest (and Holmes’ getting so completely robbed) stands for a flash point in march to ejection MTV from my life. I tried watching the MTV Movie Awards the other day and I made it 15 minutes before I had enough. I used to swear that it times that changed MTV or some executive that decide they could make more, MORE, MORE money off teenage disposable income.
No, I changed. The music didn’t get shitty. I got too old to understand it.
Anyway. Jesse didn’t last, but Dave has and so have I.
