Positive Remarks About The Oscars

Expanding on my theme of LOVE, I want to share all the positive energy I absorbed during the Oscars last night.

1. A remarkable lack of political crap! There was a little bit, but much less than Oscar shows in recent years. I came off with positive vibes due to that fact alone!

Nasty woman!

2. We got to see Bernie Taupin! It's ALWAYS Elton John, Elton John, Elton John, but how often do we see Bernie Taupin? Hardly ever! That was cool!!

Bernie on right, "Benny" on left. 

3. Steve Martin and Chris Rock were funny non-hosts. Not as good as Johnny Carson or Billy Crystal, but a very positive addition to the extravaganza! 

Chris Rock on right, Steve Martin on left. Or vice versa.

4. At first, I thought the Korean, sub-titled movie, Parasite, won too many Oscars, but the way the audience went wild over Bong joon-ho, showed a very positive attitude toward our over seas brothers in Korea! Very magnanimous of  our American brothers and sisters in Hollyworm! 

Meet the parasites!

5. How can you not love Randy Newman, right? Although he looks like he's lived a couple of lifetimes, his music is still as heartwarming as ever! I was hoping he'd win, ask Martin Scorsese to come up on stage and sing Short People! Or even Joe Pesci would work! I guess that part is not positive, but I'm kinda short myself, and I love that song! 

6.  The dude that came out and did a recap/rap of the show, basically, off the top of his head! It was pretty remarkable! It also gave me a positive view of how our youth can actually remember stuff!

7. Billie Eilish, singing Yesterday, was really quiet, showed little range, and was kinda low energy. The positive part is she is only 18, folks! So there is time for vast improvement in the future, if she stays off the recreational drugs.

None of us recognized MOST of these deceased folks. No disrespect intended. 

8. The red carpet suppliers made a killing! There was lots of red carpet! I'm almost positive the Academy buys brand spankin' new red carpet every year, because the Hollyworm super stars are NOT gonna tread on USED carpet! That's pretty positive if you're a Hollyworm carpet seller, or even a carpet installer!!

9. So positive to see the veteran actresses come out and present an Oscar or two. Like Diane Keaton, all dressed like she's still playing her role in Annie Hall, and Sigourney Weaver. (Charlie Weaver's granddaughter) I THINK?

10. Finally...the most positive thing was Joachin Phoenix and his cow speech! I've always suspected that MILK is the secret scourge to humanity, and cows have been mentally and physically abused throughout our sadistic, cruel history! (although my grandpa's cows seemed pretty darned contented)

The positive results that will come from his impassioned speech will filter down through the annals of positive pontificating on plenty of periods of positive platitudinal planes!

Why not share your POSITIVE remarks about the Oscar show, hmmm?

At this point, ANY comments are welcome!!

The Answer Was ME!!

Yesterday I asked this question on my blog: "Who's gonna break the hate?"

I seriously thought I would receive the answer I was looking for, but no one commented at all! 

The answer was ME. "Who's gonna break the hate?" Me! I'm gonna break the hate! 

It's really not a big surprise that nobody commented, because very few of my ultra shy readers ever put in their two cents, except for a handful of super sweet friends!

Good representation of me and my sweet friends. Guess which one is me. 

However, I thought that with a profoundly important question like that, a bunch of folks would throw caution to the wind and take that leap of faith and type in ME!

Love this scene!!!

No, no...it's too late now! I already gave you the answer! 

Breaking the hate starts with YOU, and ME! Our nasty, hateful rhetoric on Facebook and elsewhere, is the seed of a giant tree of anger, mistrust, and even violence, down the road!

Hey! I think I used a metaphor! 

Let's not follow the example of politicians, biased "news" commentators, violent protesters, radical religious leaders, your cousin Wilbur (who gets angry about everything), the girls on "The View," the intolerant boys in the carpool...and follow the One who said..."

I know what you may be thinking. "Well, Danny boy, I've seen some of the things you've written about Obama, or Mike Lindell (the My Pillow guy), poor Bob Dylan, or Dave Ramsey (the save every penny guy), and they were NOT very loving at all!!"

Well, um, I mean..that was, kinda, all tongue in cheek, folks. 

The tongue-in-cheek figure of speech is used to imply that a statement or other production is humorously or otherwise not seriously intended, and it should not be taken at face value.

I never actually hated Obama, or Mike Lindell, Bob Dylan or Dave Ramsey. They are just easy targets for sarcastic jokesters like me. Is that being hateful? Uh, I don't think so. Or is it?

Anyway, we need to take the focus off ME and put it back on those of YOU who spew hate, vitriol, unkindness, mean spritedness, and anger across the internet universe...and across your kitchen table!!

So...next tom I ask you, "who's gonna break the hate," what do you say?!

"YOU?" NO! Not me! You! I mean, uh, ALL OF US! Yeah! That's the ticket! All of us gonna break the hate! Won't that be nice, folks?  No yelling and screaming. Peace abounding all over the place. It will be just like old Satchmo used to sing...

Break The Hate...It's Not Too Late

Whowee! A lot of hate goin' on out dare! Such a fuming, boiling over kind of hate, that it's kinda scary, but mostly disappointing. 

Will the politicians break the hate? Ha! Will the world's religious leaders break the hate? Not so far! Will rioters in the streets break the hate? Ha ha! Will poets and songwriters, comedians, movie makers, teachers or space aliens break the hate? No!

So who's gonna break the hate?

Okay. When we last witnessed our cosmic champions, they were standing right outside of the cavernous cave of the Monster Of Malevalentay, who recently roared a very ear splitting roar, in a fearsome way! Gary and Rosie have absolutely no weapons, are tiny in comparison to the humongous monster, and need to release the imprisoned Princess Of Pyrotussin before the gluttonous beast decides to have her for lunch!!

   Rosie - ""We need to act quickly, Gary! We have no weapons, however, we are masters of the ancient art of "kickyobutt!" In fact, our hands and feet are registered in the Azkick Astro Archives as lethal weapons!!"

Gary - "What yo talkin' 'bout, Rosie? 

"Don't you remember that I missed most of that "kickyobutt" training, due to my little toe injury? So I faked my "kickyobutt" test scores to graduate from the Academy?"

Rosie - "I forgot about that...but you are a master street fighter who knows all the dirty fighting tricks to confuse, disorient, and dismember the Monster Of Malevalentay before he knows what hit him!!"

Lethal street fighter, Gary?

Gary begins to grow in confidence after Rosie's encouraging words, and a slight smile appears on his little green, Glirkazoidian face.

Gary - "Let's roll!!!"

At Gary's words, our gallant, gazelle-like, Glirkazoid grapplers, swifty run into the cavernous cave of the Monster Of Malevalentay, and find something incredibly shocking!!!

The pretty Princess Of Pyrotussin is sitting on the monster's lap and tickling his belly, which makes him ROAR with laughter.

Rosie - "Gary! I thought you said you heard a "hangry" roar, Mr. Expert!"

Gary - "Well, umm, hangry and happy are very similar roars when it comes to vicious, ravenous beasts!"

Princess Of Pyrotussin - "Hey, guys! Nice to see ya! Whatcha doin' here?"

Rosie - "We heard that the Monster Of Malevalentay had kidnapped you, made you his slave, where you were doing nasty chores for him, like clipping his toenails, and he would eventually have you as a snack!"

Princess Of Pyrotussin - "All true! Except for the fact that we fell in love, and now we're married!!"

The princess flashes an enormous diamond ring!

Gary whispers to Rosie..."She married him for his money."

Rosie whispers back..."You're such a romantic...NOT!

Gary - "Well, Rosie, I guess our mission was kind of a non-mission this tom. We best leave these "lovebirds" alone."

Rosie - "Yeah. I'm glad it all turned out okay...and who's Tom?"

Gary - "It don't matter."

Rosie - "Yes it does!! You keep bringing up this Tom character, and I have NEVER met this guy!"

Gary - "We need to get going, Rosie! We don't have tom to discuss it!"

Rosie - "Why do we need Tom to discuss it? Why can't it be just you and me?"

Gary - "Ha ha! Rosie! You're the funniest Glirakazoid in the whole wide worm!"

Rosie - "That's ANOTHER thing, Gary! We do not live in a cockadoodie WORM! We are...."

So, as the two suns set on the purple planet of Pyrotussin, our giggle inducing Glirkazoids bicker like old married folks. That's the way it has always been, the way it is now, and the way it will always be!!

Personally, I like it that way.

See ya next Wednesday for all new episodes of....

WEDNESDAY!!!!!!!
