irst things first: I blame a lot of slacking I do on Nintendo Wii. They just recently released Mario Strikers Charged, which is hilarious. It's sort of a bitch to learn. Once you get the hang of it, though, you'll be knocking jackass opponents into electrified fences in no time.

My personal favorite person to force upon the wall-of-zap is Princess Daisy, simply because I love listening to her scream.

Further, earlier this morning, I posted about wanting to work on an update today. That was all true and I really was on my way to the desktop computer! However, the Wii was glowing that I had a new message, and it's on the way to the desk. So, I had to boot it up, read my message, and holy shit, a Metroid update!

Unfortunately, the update ran quite slowly once I downloaded it to the Wii. I got bored of waiting, and -- well, you're staring at what happened next.

I think I'll eventually plug my Wii address up here. For now, though, I'll just touch on it and see how many of you actually have a Wii number to pass around.

On to the bitching segment of my update: Kanye West is an idiot.

Seriously! This jag nearly destroyed my interest of Daft Punk's song, "Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger." The song spawned a rather clever video, which shows far more creativity Idiot-Boy's poorly-conceived idea. He merely slowed the song down to half-speed and put some shitty lyrics over it.

Kanye, you're a douchebag.

What's worse is when good, worthwhile, innovative tunes lose out to this shit. Back in 2001,Christina Aguilera, Lil' Kim, Mya, and Pink dressed as skanks, sat their asses on a revolving stage, and sang a fucking cover song: Labelle's "Lady Marmalade." This video beat out the wonderful video for Fatboy Slim's "Weapon of Choice" at the 2001 MTV Video Music Awards.

Six years later, and my brain still hurts from that blow. Christopher Walken! And! He's fucking flying around a goddamn hotel lobby, for fuck's sake!

When your life consists of riding the coat tails of other popular artists' bad-ass songs ("Every Breath You Take," "Jack and Diane," the list goes on and on), you shouldn't be given a fucking award. You should be bitchslapped with a bowling pin -- onstage -- baited by the trophy you sold out to get.

"Here's your trophy. Just kidding!" (KLUMP!)
