Funny Or Die Not Funny: Lindsay Lohan

Yet another example of a Funny or Die video that's not funny, at all. This one is about Lindsay Lohan supposedly seeking love on Eharmony.com. Let me discuss some of the problems with this video.

First, girls like Lindsay Lohan don't need Eharmony.com to find people to date. Lindsay could walk into a bar tomorrow (assuming she's not in jail) and have 10 guys hitting on her. It would be 60, except for the fact that she looks like she's 45 in the face (-20), probably has syphilis, chlamydia, and a couple of STD's previously only known in Malaysia (-15), is probably drunk and stoned enough to be vomiting on the floor (-10), and is only interested in hitting on girls (-5). Still, at least 10 guys in that bar would want to take Lindsay to bed, if only to score a crappy book deal worth 10K or so afterward.

Second, everything that she says in the video to supposedly be a "parody" of herself is basically true. Lindsay Lohan is "a crazy redhead", is an "alcoholic in the state of Califonia" (and every other state, for that matter), and probably would "crash your car". If Lindsay wasn't Hollywood's and Perez Hilton's little darling (likely meaning that she's slept with a lot of producers and has pictures to prove it), she would probably be in jail, homeless, or a fetish slave to some dyke (Lindsay, that is). Instead, Lindsay can make a Youtube video, laughing about how much of a loser she is.

Instead of coddling idiots like Lindsay Lohan, Americans need to take her, and the rest of Hollywood and their bull crap, to task for subjecting us to this level of stupidity.

Funny or Die not funny?

Is it just me, or are the "funny or die" Youtube videos not very funny? I found this one the other day with Natalie Portman and Rashida Jones (I have no idea who the latter one is) making a tribute to . . . chickens? It's one of these videos that reminds me of a sketch from a slow night on one of the late night shows, like Jimmy Kimmel, Dave Letterman, of Jimmy Kimmel. The Youtube video is supposed to be funny and you could force yourself to laugh over it, but it's not something that you would post on Facebook or Google search later.








In another note, Hollywood and the mainstream media do this all the time. They turn out sketches or satire articles that are supposed to be funny, but they're not. Take a recent article from Onion.com about gays in the military as another example. Cutting through all of the bull crap and Onion gay bias, the basic assumption of the article is that, if you oppose gay anything, you're basically a closet gay. By the same token, if you opposed Christian anything, are you a closet Christian? If you dislike rap music, are you a closet rapper? More importantly, when most people read it that aren't gay (and yes, most people aren't), then you run into a situation where they're not laughing at the jokes in the article. However, Hollywood doesn't care, and they keep printing crap that most Americans wouldn't find funny, wouldn't share with friends, and most likely feel like they've been gay raped for even having read or watched in the first place.

Natalie Portman: 




The saddest part about all this is that there are genuinely funny videos on Youtube, like this parody of a American Psycho with a Mexican that I found. People need to start sharing these types of articles, instead of just parroting out crap from Hollywood.
