There are people in life that don’t have the wherewithal to just shut the fuck up. You know these people. They were the ones doing kegstands while everyone else was packing up the party. Every once in a great while one of these abrasive personalities slips through the cracks and makes it big, where they then have a forum to chime in with the power of the media behind them.

Well, here is enough to make me beg that The Price is Right doesn’t go Rosie.

At the Cyndi Lauper True Colors tour:

“I got to tell you, I’ve been hanging around with those heteros for a full year and it’s not fun,” she said. “Turn around one minute and they’ll stab you in the back with a high heel. They will.”

What the hell? If I said “I’ve been hanging around with these homos for a year and it’s sucked,” how would that go for me? It would go poorly, because it is very very stupid. Now, they may in fact be back stabbers (BwaBwa in particular would eat your children to get an interview) but categorizing them as “heteros” has nothing to do with anything. It’s brushing all “heteros” with the same broad stroke which is the one thing everyone who’s ever been discriminated against hates. Also, I’ve heard the Hasselbeck chick goes both ways.

Bob Barker, who recently filmed his last episode of the show, is supporting Rosie as an replacement.

“I believe they’re going to have a meeting with Rosie,” said Barker on Friday night. “She knows the show. There’s no doubt in my mind she could do the show. Now, whether they want a lady host, I don’t know. I’ve never heard that discussed. As far as I know, they’ve only auditioned men. She told me she loved ‘The Price Is Right’ and wanted to host it one day.”

I really don’t see how this could work. Instead of “Remember, get your pets spayed and neutered” we’d have “Remember, pull U.S. troops out of Iraq,” and I don’t think that would go over well with the large conservative portion of the show’s fanbase. I would, however, love to see Bob Barker do The View.
