Oliver Willis: Stuck On StupidThere's a Chris Rock riff about how you know white people wouldn't vote for Colin Powell for President because they say (according to this riff) "He speaks so wellllll." Which is supposedly a bit of racism, because, as Rock fumes, "He's an educated man! What the hell did you expect to come out of his mouth?" And I guess there's some truth in that. A bit. Like the old sportscaster "slur," where white athletes would be praised for their "smarts and teamwork" and blacks would be praised for their "natural athletic ability" and "finely honed predatory pack-hunting insticts." Okay, I made the last one up, but that whole complaint was sort of overblown anyway. Yes, occasionally that was said, but it's been damned more than it was ever orginally uttered. Anyway. Oliver Willis, having, as usual, very little to say about anything (and, unlike me, who shares the same limitation, also not having any interesting way to say that little bit) is back on his old reliable hobbyhorse, accusing political opponents in the blogosphere of invidious racism. The charge? Captain Ed showed the true colors of his sheets when he remarked that Maryland Lt. Governor Michael Steele was... Articulate, knowledgeable, passionate, and humorous, he [Steele] embodies the communication skills of a Ronald Reagan with a keen grasp of policy. You see? He accused Steele of being "articulate," thus demonstrating that he thinks all black people are Mush-mouth from Fat Albert (or Dumb Donald, take your pick). Filet-O-Fish fumes: Aw lawzy! That Michael Steele is sho nuff one of them “articulate” negroes. One of “the good ones”, you know? Jesus, he can't even be funny when he's swiping from Chris Rock. Okay, listen to me, Moron: "articulate" is a perfectly useful adjective and it is generally considered a compliment. Not everyone is articulate. I'm sure not when I'm doing my stupid internet webcast show. I wish I were, but I'm not. Steele is articulate. If you don't like that word, how about "fluid" or "smooth" or "verbally dextrous"? Take your pick, Big Fun. Look, idiot, if you don't have anything interesting to say, please try writing another one of your hi-larious fake news bits involving Britney Spears or Beyonce. You know, the, giggle, future Mrs. Oliver Willis. In, you know, the Bizarro dimension. Playing the race card just because you're tapped out and desperately flailing for attention is cheap, even for you. Slurring someone just for a quickie post is the mark of, how you say?, major asshole. It's this juvenile to call everyone you don't like a "racist" that has actually robbed that vicious word of its old (righteous) power. When everyone's a "racist," it just loses all sting, you know? You can stretch the word as far as the frayed and straining elastic waistband in your husky-plus sweatpants, but it loses all "snap," see what I'm sayin'?
No link for Grimmace. I've got better things to do than type in the link for a fat, talentless slime-merchant of a McDonald's mascot. Eric Cartman says you suck, too. More! We're All Racists! Well, Fat-Ass thinks we haven't met any black people, because, you know, he says "stuck on stupid" is an old black thang (hey, I speak Jive!) and we didn't hear it before so we don't know any black people and we hate them. Or something. Well, look here Old Man, it is true that blacks and whites don't socialize as much as we should in a perfect world, which is why some black slang -- "old" as Dave would say -- suddenly becomes the white flavor of the month when we finally hear it. Eh. It's all about race with some people. Wonder how many "homies" (I'm down!) Eric Altermann "chills" with on a regular basis. A lot of black slang originates in what some call "da hood." Now, not to cast aspersions on Grimmace's "street cred" or nothin', but something tells me he hears stuff about forty seconds before George Fucking Plimpton or Tucker Fucking Carlson does. Again, thanks to Allah. See how much better this is when you help me rather than viciously attack me?

Of course, then there is his post asking if Republican bloggers even KNEW any black people. What an ass he is. Posted by: carin on September 21, 2005 06:17 PM
I've got better things to do than type in the link for a fat, talentless slime-merchant of a McDonald's mascot. You forgot 'inarticulate.' Posted by: ken on September 21, 2005 06:18 PM
Seriously, I thought Cousin Ollie stopped blogging. Now I have to live knowing that the blogosphere is a notch dumber. Thanks Ace and Allah, I can always count on you two to ruin a perfectly good night. Posted by: Rusty Shackleford on September 21, 2005 06:25 PM
But this IS all about race. The liberals won't be able to stand an excellent, Black Republican senator like Michael Steele will be when he wins in '06. Posted by: Steve on September 21, 2005 06:26 PM
I thought Cousin Ollie stopped blogging... When did he start? I hesitate to call psychotic racist rants "blogging". Posted by: Tony on September 21, 2005 06:36 PM
Ace I'm SHOCKED SHOCKED that you would pick on a poor weight challenged individual. Don't you think its bad enough to have to look in the mirror and see...Oliver Willis! Imagine the horror of going through life with taunts like Posted by: Iblis on September 21, 2005 06:42 PM
So if a white person says something nice about a black person, it's an indication that the white person thinks that quality is unheard of in black people? It's automatically racist to compliment a person of color? This is going to be a tough standard to work with. Posted by: S. Weasel on September 21, 2005 06:46 PM
Cartman link aint working Posted by: Iblis on September 21, 2005 06:48 PM
I suppose white people should be more niggardly in how we pay compliments to black people. Posted by: tachyonshuggy on September 21, 2005 06:51 PM
Oliver who? Posted by: Christopher Cross on September 21, 2005 06:56 PM
Maryland Lt. Governor Michael Steele is articulate. President Bush is not. In OllieWorld, as I am a member of the caucasion race, I have assimulated the belief that all whites are naturally articulate. By calling Bush inarticulate, I'm racist against whites as well as blacks. See how clear it is? Posted by: Bill Peschel on September 21, 2005 07:03 PM
I've come across rare footage of O-Chub and Ace's early days in the hood. (Early because O-Chub hasn't put the weight on yet and Ace still had his license) Posted by: Iblis on September 21, 2005 07:05 PM
Actually, I've heard "stuck on stupid" from a lot of ex-military guys. Some were even white! And hispanic! Go figure. Posted by: Dave D on September 21, 2005 07:13 PM
Ace - To settle the question of "racism": Would you describe George W. Bush (or his father, come to that!) as "articulate"? Not just no, but hell no! I would describe Ann Coulter as articulate. Off her nut, now and again, but articulate. What does this have to do with race? Um....does this mean you need great legs to be articulate? Has anyone seen a politician in shorts, so we can check? Ooooh! If it does, then Hillary is not articulate, but downright speech impaired. I like this new definition of "articulate." Posted by: Dianna on September 21, 2005 07:15 PM
Ace - as much as it pains you could you link to O-Dub's site when you ref him? Otherwise we have to type it in the address bar and that history never goes away. On another note - I've found the best way to counter charges of racism is to point out how many porn sites you visit that feature "sweet black booty" Posted by: Allen on September 21, 2005 07:23 PM
"...but something tells me he hears stuff about forty seconds before George Fucking Plimpton or Tucker Fucking Carlson does." And how slow does that make him when you consider that George Plimpton isn't hearing anything these days 'cuz he's been dead for two years. (Not sure about Tucker Carlson ....) Posted by: Doug on September 21, 2005 07:54 PM
Hm. I just got 86,700 Google hits on "stuck on stupid." They cover the spectrum. For sure, there's a Ghostface Killah song from 1996 that includes the phrase. That's the oldest dated reference I see, and I spent a grueling 90 seconds on the exercise. A cursory glance shows most of the hits at the front of the pile are descriptions of the Linux desktop. I assume we can all agree that Linux is as white as Miracle Whip in February. Posted by: S. Weasel on September 21, 2005 07:58 PM
Oliver is a dirty fat smelly piece of cooz...is that racist or just over the top? Posted by: Steve of Norway on September 21, 2005 08:03 PM
I assume we can all agree that Linux is as white as Miracle Whip in February. Not anymore... Red Flag, Ubuntu, GoBoLinux, etc Posted by: Tony on September 21, 2005 08:08 PM
Ace - as much as it pains you could you link to O-Dub's site when you ref him? Otherwise we have to type it in the address bar and that history never goes away. Right click on the bar on the bottom of your screen to the right of Start. Click Properties. Click Advanced. Click Clear. Done.

Also, you can download a great spyware program called Ad-Aware from Lavasoft (this cool Swedish company). When you scan for spyware, you can instruct it to Search for Negligible Risks. It will then empty all the MRU files (most recently used files) for all the programs on your computer. I guess it's clear that I don't want Mrs. Michael to know what I've been doing on this computer. Posted by: Michael on September 21, 2005 08:24 PM
Ah, don't feel guilty. Mrs. Michael is doing the same sort of computer cleansing, removing things like: PoolBoysRUs It sucks to be the last one to know... Posted by: Lipstick on September 21, 2005 09:39 PM

Ace and Allah can't read these comments. They're both at a party That Can't Be Named tonight and neither of them invited us. Friggin' wild and crazy New York bloggers. I'm at home, drinking a beer and watching Alton Brown. Woo hoo. Posted by: Slublog on September 21, 2005 10:13 PM
Now we can OW "articulate" without fear of complimenting him. By his standards, the more we applaud his writing, the more insulting we become. It's comforting to know that, whether we say something negative or positive, we can't even accidentally give him a compliment. Posted by: geoff on September 21, 2005 10:15 PM
I'm not at the party. Posted by: Allah on September 21, 2005 10:20 PM
I'm not at the party. Dang. I figured we'd get a full report. Always wanted to know what goes on at them "big city" parties. Posted by: Slublog on September 21, 2005 10:25 PM
I'm not at the party. Why not? If it's b/c a couple of million islamofacists still want to kill you, go incognito. Better yet, go as Ace. Nobody knows what he looks like, either. Well, maybe Karol, but she'll be shitface soon. Posted by: on September 21, 2005 10:52 PM

Why not? If it's b/c a couple of million islamofacists still want to kill you, go incognito. Eh. Just not much of a mingler. Posted by: Allah on September 21, 2005 11:12 PM
Again, thanks to Allah. See how much better this is when you help me rather than viciously attack me? Actually, Ace, it's fun when Allah drops in to bust your 'tard balls. Posted by: on September 21, 2005 11:15 PM
"Big Fun"? I laughed for five minutes over that one. I love it when you get on a rant, Ace. Posted by: Lorie Byrd on September 21, 2005 11:17 PM
Eh. Just not much of a mingler. Are you hinting that you're shy? If true, not unusual. Posted by: on September 21, 2005 11:19 PM
Are you hinting that you're shy? If true, not unusual. You think? What are the odds that a guy who spends lots of time surfing the Net would be antisocial? Posted by: Allah on September 21, 2005 11:34 PM
You think? What are the odds that a guy who spends lots of time surfing the Net would be antisocial? Say it ain't so... Posted by: Slublog on September 21, 2005 11:39 PM
"antisocial" is garroting your neighbor then raping/killing his wife and daughter because their dog crapped on your lawn. Eco-friendly anti-social is disposing of the bodies in a nice dumpster fire so the rotting corpses won't attract vermin in the neighborhood. Posted by: Tony on September 21, 2005 11:49 PM
No, "antisocial" is using pseudonymes for your pseudonymes' pseudonyme online. Posted by: Jack Wilkie on September 21, 2005 11:55 PM
You think? What are the odds that a guy who spends lots of time surfing the Net would be antisocial? I don't consider shyness the same as antisocial. Since, it's not my place to argue what you are, or are not, antisocial it is. Posted by: on September 21, 2005 11:59 PM
I have a hard time believing that Oliver's blathering isn't anything but an effort to paper over the fact that Democratic Senate Committee has been nailed with possessing Lt. Governor Steele's credit record. You know, private information you and I get scared into protecting on a regular-high-diddly-damn basis. I mean, God forbid someone be articulate AND Republican - that just ruins the whole juvenile notion that Oliver and Co. have about Republicans. Oh no, they have to disguise this as an issue of race - that Steele is an "Uncle Tom" or an "Oreo", terms that are racist on their face. People like Oliver can't just disagree, they have to be asshats and liars about it too. Posted by: CollegePundit on September 22, 2005 12:14 AM
Has anyone seen a politician in shorts, so we can check? Please, God, do not let me see a politician in shorts. Any politician. (Well, unless the politician rides a bike regularly, come to think of it. But that's not most of 'em.) I don't want to have to scrub my brainpan with bleach. Posted by: jaed on September 22, 2005 12:42 AM
So let me get this straight....Oliver Willis is black? Posted by: T on September 22, 2005 09:48 AM
Hey, Oliver: 1) Chris Rock is thin. Posted by: J Mann on September 22, 2005 10:26 AM
Since it matters so much of O-Dub, I promise never to consider him articulate. Slim chance of that ever happening, anyway. But just to be polite, it's now policy. Cordially... Posted by: Rick on September 22, 2005 11:28 AM
Oliver has to be the only person in the country who watched the Roberts hearings and came away thinking it's remarkable to distinguish a Senate candidate by describing him as "articulate." Seriously, there are so many incoherent politicians out there . . . wait, I'm using logic again. No fair. Posted by: Crank on September 22, 2005 07:09 PM
Democratic Senate Committee has been nailed Comrade "sanctimonious pussnut judicial committee member" Chuck Schumer's staffers too. This makes it exceptionally sweet. Of course this was all a perfectly executed Rovian sting to neuter Schumer's credibility during the NEXT confirmation hearings. Posted by: Tony on September 22, 2005 09:48 PM
My comment here Posted by: Milhouse on September 23, 2005 12:16 PM
A little late, but I just remembered this post... The rerun of the last Seinfeld episode just aired. I had completely forgotten about the scene wherein Terri Hatcher's character is in bed with 'Jackie' the attorney. In the scene, they're sexing it up in bed when they roll over, and Terri's character says, "Oh Jackie! You're so articulate!" I LMAO! Posted by: jmflynny on September 27, 2005 07:52 PM

What is the UK Regime's plan for protecting the citizens from the savage criminals they've foisted on the populace? They offer NONE. They do, however, have a plan for protecting the savage criminals from the citizens: The citizens must STAY CALM and not get angry and not share videos of citizens being attacked by savage criminals. The public keeps saying "protect us from the foreign savages you have imported against our wishes and over our objections" and the UK branch of The Regime keeps proposing plans to protect the foreign savages from the public. Soclose to what the public is demanding, just, you know, the complete opposite. Just a thought: Maybe you wouldn't have to worry about the public attacking the savage criminals if you actually introduced a plan to protect the public from the savage criminals. Maybe they wouldn't feel as if it was necessary for them to protect the public through self-help.
