The highlight of my day yesterday was this comment on my post from a Beckie Whittaker (if that’s your real name, sounds made up to me), commenting on the embarrassingly ridiculous subculture superstar Kirby Heyborne:
“How crass can a person get? This isn’t a proper review of talent or ability or personality. I don’t live in Utah and never have, so strike one there…
I’ve spent some time with Kirby Heyborne-and know people who work closely with him. There couldn’t be a nicer,more genuinely kind or any LESS self-absorbed person on this planet.
Some agencies or assistants don’t bother to respond, let alone send autographed cards out, so you’re pretty fortunate to have received a reply at all. Perhaps your time would be better served uplifting and contributing positively rather than posting rude “information” about people.”
Beckie, I hate to mode you in front of everyone (wait, strike that, I’d love to), but if you thought my post was crass, you obviously don’t know Kirby’s full body of work. At least I didn’t use the ‘f’ or reference the Olson Twins in a very degrading sexually explicit way as in Kirby’s “funny” music video that can be seen here:
So in response to what you said about how i should be ‘uplifting and contributing’ to society, should I cc Kirby on that? And also, I think you would be less of a burden on society if you didn’t make comments about things of which you are obviously clueless. Oh yeah and you probably shouldn’t use your full name to leave comments anymore; unless you want your name search engine optimized for something so embarrassing.
(thanks Jon)

Wow. Sadly I watched this entire video. Four minutes, forty three seconds of my life, gone. I didn’t think it was possible, but this poodle-bone of a “music video” makes me long for the high production value of a Kevin Federline offering. It also made me seriously consider killing a kindergartner. And a Canadian. And moving somewhere where modern media has not yet reached. Seriously - who the hell was this slop produced for? I have a lower opinion of myself for even entertaining the distant notion that I could gain anything remotely useful from whatever that was.
I think Kirby belongs on your wall for merely having the guts to send you an autographed headshot AFTER “making” (I use the term loosely) that video. I’m going home to hit my head against a wall until I deem myself sufficiently smart enough to recognize garden-variety feces when I see it in the future.

Actually, I was fully aware of the “Muncie” parody Kirby was involved with and the Sat. Night Live parody it was based on, in addition to the “West Coast Response”, but thank you for insinuating that I’m unintelligent simply because I don’t agree with your opinion.
It is tongue in cheek, for those of you who do not understand. It is obviously not the person–it is a character being portrayed. Having been raised in the Midwest, I did find it humorous.
One more thing–if you google my name, you’ll find that I am a voice-over actress or a member of Canada’s “Marijuana Party”–take your pick, boys.

Beckie, I must say you took our beating really well, and I give you a lot of credit for that. I must say that its true, you’re either a voice over actress, a member of the Canadian Marijuana Party, or someone who got moded hardcore-a-licious!

Being aware of where the “idea” for this little gem of a “parody” comes from as well as the fact that there’s a “West Coast Response” somehow managed (I’m not sure how) to make this video even worse. It’s safe to say this video ruined my day.
SNL stopped being funny over a decade ago. He needs to serve some kind of sentence, at least a small beating for subjecting us to his comic stylings. Wait, “comic stylings,” there.
