So I was very bored the other night and ended up watching the VMA's again. Now, I don't actually know what's dumber, MTV for re-running the same four shows seven hundred million times or me watching the same four shows 600 million times and then complaining about it, but I can tell you this - if I had a candy bar for every time I've seen this year's show I wouldn't be a hungry man until 2011.

Anyway, has there ever been anything more embarassing than that Guns and Roses performance? I mean, Guns was once one of my favortie bands, but now Axl looks like he's been on a steady diet of lard and bacon grease. And his voice! Jesus, he sounded like a baby seal being beaten by a vicious hunter who is himself being devoured by a polar bear, all in an underground sewer tunnel.

So that was very disappointing, and the pain was really only eased by my knowledge that Lance Bass would soon safely be ensconced in the International Space Station as an American ambassador of hope and peace. But goddammitt, they had to take that away from us too.

Is there any justice left in the world?
