Lunatic cringe

Yikes. That was the most awkward TV I've seen since Bill O'Reilly shouted down the son of a 9/11 victim and cut his mic off. Why did he insist on saying "Afro-Americans" twice? Did he really think that was a good idea? What a creepy dude. Jerry Seinfeld chastising the audience ("Stop laughing. It's not funny") was pretty something, too.

The Racist Adventures of Old Cosmo

We've all seen this by now, right? "Hipster doofus," indeed. Apparently racism has replaced Kabbalah as the hot new thing in Hollywood. They're exchanging red bracelets for white hoods! Why can't they do normal things like adopt African babies? I like how it says "WARNING: WHAT YOU ARE ABOUT TO SEE IS PROFANE AND RACIAL." Racial? Did David Brent write that copy? Stupid TMZ. I know "Seinfeld" always did poorly ratings-wise with black audiences so I guess this was him lashing out after all these years. It's weird that people were still laughing at the beginning of all the racismness. Maybe they thought it was Sacha Baron Cohen's latest character, TV's Michael Richards. Honestly, though, this is probably the most interesting thing you could ever expect to happen at a Michael Richards comedy show. Will future crowds be disappointed when he DOESN'T yell racist epithets? I guess there's a chance this is just a weird way to promote "Seinfeld" season 7 on DVD. "Look to the cookie," Kramer.
