Sacha Baron Cohen? Lew, I never heard the name until your blog, and I realized he is the dope who played that infantile Borat character. What was done to Ron Paul was creepy, skanky, and disgusting. What was the point? Shock and awe. Shock people with your depravity and awe them with your brazenness. This is cool stuff, according to people my own age. Oh, and funny, funny!
So, you approach a mild-mannered, conservative gentleman, in his 70s, who is minding his own business, and you gyrate and drop your pants for shock value, and that’s considered to be amusing? Why not just moon grandma or have your girlfriend do an MTV-type pelvic rub on grandpa? Where do I get the DVD?
I am so out of the loop concerning what passes as modern comedy and great humor/acting. I follow none of this stuff. I claim ignorance of Stupid Humor Trivia. People my age watch this crap when I can’t even bear to be a captive of the three-minute trailer. I saw the Borat trailer; I remember thinking, “How low can we go?”
