It's time for American Idol, finally.
I finally got around to watching the American Idol auditions the other day… for the first time ever! Let me just say, wow. It utterly amazes me the vast quantities of people, the thousands upon thousands, who are so completely delusional with inflated senses of self importance and ability. “I know I can make it, I just need to be given a chance!” Uh… no you can’t. Not while you’re singing through your nose like that. Go back to karaoke please.
Do these people listen to themselves? They think they are it. I mean seriously, they really believe they are up there with Whitney Houston. I think the stupidest ones are the dolts who decided to pick a Paula Abdul song and then proceeded to shred it to pieces in front of her. Let’s think about this. If you perform it badly, you are offending her by insulting the song with your screeching. If you do really well, maybe even better than the original, you run the risk of her not liking the fact that you can sing her song better. Either way you lose. But that’s okay because it makes for some rollicking good laughs.
