VMA's?

Disclaimer: I am watching the replay of the VMA's at 1:30 in the AM after several hours spent at Crash Mansion on the Bowery with Free Beck's and ROCK AND ROLL.

Seriously, what the hell is going on with the MTV and the VMA's? I mean I have never been one to hold MTV to a hire standard other than a crap factory for music and steroidal exploitation, but at some point, recently. I must have stopped really paying attention to what the kids are in touch with because I have no idea what is going on right now. I mean I noticed The Beyonce doing some kind of angry songsy diatribe with loud megaphone type effects and Justin opening the show with his white boy seizure moves, but I have not recognized a single nominee or atleast I am choosing not to. (Pussy Cat Dolls are a gimic show on Sunset, how could they possibly win a VMA?) Moreover, I don't even recognize the categories anymore, I mean a DANCE? category? For what? Dancing? Jesus give me a couple of shots a jack, a bong hit, and a Mountain Dew and I will dance all night, excellently. Better than the Clit Cats atleast. I mean do they sign anything or are they super sweet strippers.

Sadly, I feel like I may finally be losing touch with MTV and the VMA's and as I think about it more, I am pretty okay with this part of growing up. (until of course, I have to raise a young girl of my own, and in that case, GAME OVER MAN.... GAME OVER!!!)
