Bloody Genius

I read in the newspaper yesterday (worlds collide) that there’s a guy who just quit American Idol. DON’T think of his name, or look it up. I don’t want to shoulder the guilt of making this dude more famous.

But I do want to congratulate him.

Because he’s really just asking the hand that feeds him to go screw itself.

Which I think is awesome and hilarious, because it’s not happening to me.

I don’t follow the show, so I don’t know if this guy’s among the two best left or whatever.

My informed, educated guess is that he’s not, and it’s totally, like, a PR deal.

Ultra-talented or not, he’s using this soulless, manufacturing enterprise only as a springboard for himself.

I owe this man a beer.

    This is just like the time I was doing that “America’s Top Model” show and just quit right in the middle of it.

    I had just had…. ENOUGH of their condescension and focus on perfect this perfect that you need to change this and you need to change that.

    Yup. Switched right to another channel.
