The "We're Laughing At You, Not With You" Awards.
Edited on Wed Jan-05-05 12:09 AM by elperromagico
There are always celebrities - usually minor, third-rate celebrities - who seem to think the world is laughing with them. But the world is usually laughing at them. I think they deserve some sort of award for their delusion.

My nominee for this award is William Hung. How about you?

10. Good one. Did you see his Daily Show performance?
It reminded me of Lenny Bruce's "White Collar Drunks" bit. "Isn't it about time the house bought a drink?"

:D

13. Unfortunately so.
Joan was so funny back in the day, especially when she filled in for Carson and talked about the invisible Edgar.

16. My choice as well
Does anyone believe he really gives a shit about Scott Peterson? He lost a lot of clout this year. Also had the bachellorette crap on all the time.
