Alright, I've been calling 'Ye an idiot for a long time. Shortly after his "Bush don't respect Black people" speech. I blogged about how stupid he was after he called out Radiohead.

But this time? I like it.
Doesn't make sense, right?
I hate it when people are minor assholes, and 'Ye was a minor asshole. But when you turn it up to 11 and take it to an extreme level--almost like a movie villain--then it becomes kinda rad. Example: Ivan Drago killing Apollo Creed and then saying "if he dies he dies" is AWESOME and made me like him . When he first killed Creed, I hated him, but then when he said that line and pushed the evil to another 6 levels, I loved him.
Another good example is Biff Tannen--when he was just a jerk and bullied George McFly in high school, everyone hated him. But in part 2 when he actually had like, two naked chicks in his hot tub and was pulling out guns and crap, suddenly he was pretty rad. I mean I didn't want Marty to die or what not, but then Biff Tannen from that point on became iconic.
Anyway 'Ye last night, with his what, fourth storm-the-stage-and-sound-like-an-ignorant-idiot moment, officially crossed that line. Now he's like a cartoon character. He's like that bad guy with the cat after Inspector Gadget. He's like that bully from the Max who tried to steal Kelly from Zack Morris!
Now, 'Ye is officially a villain, and now I'm a-okay with his antics.
Maybe it's cause I always do things differently. I was calling him an idiot when he was popular, now he's getting booed, suddenly I'm like "wow this guy is a crazy motherfucker. I like it"
This Obama remix is hilarious.
