Breaking: Chris Brown No Longer Most Hated Black Man in Pop Culture
NEW YORK (AP)--In what social scientists are calling an "unheard-of" turn of events, polling data taken overnight has found that Chris Brown is no longer the most reviled man of color walking the face of Earth.
In a nearly impossible upset, data shows that recording artist Kanye West managed to wrangle the title from Brown following his drunken, childish tirade in the opening minutes of Sunday evening's VMA program.
"I was completely taken aback," said University of Florida psychology professor Gerald Hanneford, when asked about the poll results. "I mean what kind of son of a b*tch would ruin Taylor Swift's moment like that? Huh? Oh, yeah. Yes, well, the polling data was surprising as well."
"I think you kind of have to look at the situations at hand," said Caroline Chisolm, a psychologist specializing in women's images in mainstream media. "I mean, yes, Chris Brown beat the sh*t out of Rihanna. I mean, just really f*ckin laid into her, you know? [Chisolm repeatedly punched her hand while saying "Pow! Pow! Pow!"]. But, pfft, she'll be alright! What people really want to know is, where does Kanye get off stealing that girl's moment like that? That ain't right, 'Ye. That aint right."
The poll, conducted radomly among households nationwide, revealed that Kanye's award show antics solidified him in a state of near-universal contempt, soaring several places in the "hated black man" rankings after only a few minutes' effort.
According to the numbers, Kanye is equally as despicable as three-and-a-half OJ Simpsons, or as disgusting as a combination of two R. Kelly's and a third of a Barack Obama. He is equal in hate-power to a mix of a half 50 Cent and a whole Terrell Owens, though on the positive side, he tested slightly less putrid than two Michael Vicks with a dash of Isaiah Washington.
Reached for comment early on Monday, West said that his awards show shenanigans were just his way of giving back.
"Man, it's like, how do you really turn the public against you full force? These days, we're desensitized; It takes a lot to summon up a true storm of popular fury. I mean Chris, he tried, but how long can you really be mad at a guy for destroying the face of a young female pop star in a fit of violence, you know? I mean Ike Turner revolutionized that decades ago, we're kind of used to it by now," said the rapper, taking a gulp of Hennessy. "So what can I do? There's giving people drugs, but then again, Bobby Brown pretty much force-fed Whitney crack. I can't top that. Kill dogs? Been Done. Murder folks? Been Done.
"So I figured, hey, why not destroy the cherished dreams of this innocent young white woman? Can't recall seeing that done, right? And you know what? I was right. Yahtzee."
Asked how they would like Kanye to be dealt with, 23% of those polled said they would like to see the rapper publicly apologize to Swift, while 11% said they would like his music banned from radio play. A full 66% said they would like him to be skull-f*cked by a wild Grizzly Bear with herpi-rabies.

It's Inglourious!
First post, and I figured instead of an intro, which would just bore the hell out of everyone (me), I'd get right to business.
