As you've probably guessed based on the 47 people who've asked if you like fish sticks this morning, last night's South Park was an instant classic. Hilarity started ensuing in the first scene and kept ensuing until the credits rolled. Just an unprecedented amount of ensuing. But you really can't top the final scene. A pitch-perfect Kanye West parody paired with an embrace of homosexual bestiality is basically the stuff dreams are made of. Wait, you don't have those dreams too? Is that your new ringtone or what?You can see full episodes and more clips at South Park Studios. Meanwhile, a new episode of South Park airs next Wednesday at 10pm / 9c.
Isn't the internet amazing? Back in the cowboy days, it would sometimes take months for a rap mogul to publicly respond after being depicted as a gay fish on an animated TV show. But in the digital era, it's almost instantaneous. Here's what Kanye West posted on his website in the wake of Wednesday's South Park:
SOUTH PARK MURDERED ME LAST NIGHT AND IT'S PRETTY FUNNY. IT HURTS MY FEELINGS BUT WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT FROM SOUTH PARK! I ACTUALLY HAVE BEEN WORKING ON MY EGO THOUGH. HAVING THE CRAZY EGO IS PLAYED OUT AT THIS POINT IN MY LIFE AND CAREER. I USE TO USE IT TO BUILD UP MY ESTEEM WHEN NOBODY BELIEVED IN ME. NOW THAT PEOPLE DO BELIEVE AND SUPPORT MY MUSIC AND PRODUCTS THE BEST RESPONSE IS THANK YOU INSTEAD OF "I TOLD YOU SO!!!" IT'S COOL TO TALK SHIT WHEN YOU'RE RAPPING BUT NOT IN REAL LIFE. WHEN YOU MEET LITTLE WAYNE IN PERSON HE'S THE NICEST GUY FOR EXAMPLE. I JUST WANNA BE A DOPER PERSON WHICH STARTS WITH ME NOT ALWAYS TELLING PEOPLE HOW DOPE I THINK I AM.
Believe it or not, that is word-for-word identical to my marriage vows. Uncanny.
