I've seen it. Though most of the 12 year olds that are shaped like that are faking themselves up to look older, so they can buy booze, or sell themselves on the streets. At least those are the ones I’ve seen. Then you see them at school the next day when you are doing a teen violence talk to the grade 6-7 classes, and you can just see that those kids are trying to hide from your gaze. In class they look like normal kids. It's just sad that some of them have to fall so far down the dark path, at such a young age. But I'm off topic.

As for the video, I know it's not really what she's like, but there will be children that see that, and they will not. I find it grotesque that she would openly go on screen and bash her own reputation like that. Her use of language and violence, and her condoning of drunk driving, drugs, free sex, hitting children, and cheating through school are nothing more than disgraceful!! I've just spent the last 4 weeks using my status as a police officer to go to the schools and provide education against all that stuff. None of that stuff is joking matters, and I'm ashamed that any sensible adult could possibly find that funny.

But other than that I don't have an oppion.

This skit is supposed to be funny, and it is. Come on, it's SNL. If this were the 50's I might see why it is you're complaining, but it's not. This is all in good fun, whether or not you see it that way.

lol, so other than your opinion, you don't have an opinion?

I got a kick out of it. Generally I find rap to be in poor taste, but the very paradox of a Harvard actress being gangsta was what made it funny for me.

I am not getting into any of the other parts of the debate. If you really want to discuss the merits of those thoughts with me, hit me up on AIM.

I was amused.


And, I have to admit, Natalie seems to become more attractive as she gets into her mid-20s.

Try some Aesop Rock. Try anything produced by Dan "the Automator" Nakamura.

If a kid is watching a program that is sandwiched between real life murders and crimes in the evening news, and the Apollo comedy hour, then I think that kid has a lot of other stuff to worry about warping their precious little minds.


So I quote a parable that I learned at the tender age of ten, from the warrior poet Ice Cube.

To all of the little kids looking up to me, life ain't nothing but bitches and money
