Dammit, I was snubbed by the Academy again...
43 years in a row now, I wake up and read that I wasn't nominated for an Oscar. Cripes, who do I hafta blow to get some recognition?!

It's all political. I'm too controversial for them. Bastards.

3. I like it better when they say "shut out"
Sounds so nasty, doesn't it?

So & so was SHUT OUT of the best supporting actress category.

4. It's obvious your left-leaning ways
make you unpalatable to Hollywood.

Oh, wait. Aren't they "librul", too?

6. If it's Harvey Weinstein, maybe you're better off without an Oscar.
There are some people I would never, under ANY circumstance, blow. :-)
