eKrap – Roy Zornow

There is a whole crop of self-satisfied sell-out former genius baby-boomer actors, comedians and musicians who you must forcefully hate now because soon they will be too old to hate, it will be unseemly. Many are former comedians, which I attribute to the greater fall from grace by the “truth-teller”. The list includes:

• Steve Martin – “Shittier by the Dozen”
• Eddie Murphy – Fat suit fetish
• Robin Williams – More interesting when on drugs
• Robert DeNiro – The positive still outweighs the negative
• Peter Coyote – A former guerilla street mime, now shilling SUV’s
• Dennis Hopper – “It’s not where your dreams take you, it’s where you take your dreams” WTF does that even MEAN?
• Iggy Pop – Fresh Air interview: “What does Iggy Pop mean to Jimmy Osterberg?” (his real name)   …”It means getting the best table at a restauarant, ahahaa”
• Tim Allen – always a sellout, former cocaine dealer turned traditional values fascist
• Dennis Miller – now appearing on the “Vs.” network with sports commentary

Many many others, too numerous to name. Soon they will be ancient, like Bette Davis in white pancake make-up on the Tonight show, and you will be lucky they can evoke a time when you were younger so you must leave them alone. In the meantime, as was said in “Ben” (or was it “Willard”) “Tear Him Apart!!!!”
