Pssht. Kanye West is good for more entertainment value than Mike Meyers and Taylor Swift combined, in no small part because of his Tourettic ALL-CAPS outbursts. Anyone who's stopped liking him just now hasn't been paying attention, because this is what he's been doing, like, all along.

(Also, I'mma let myself finish, but Kanye rhymed "OMG" with "woe is me!" That is one of the best rhymes of all time.)

nonsense. Sometimes you encounter someone you're not sure about at first, but you give them a chance. I'm sure people did that with you and your writing, Mr. Grandy.

They didn't STOP paying attention, they STARTED paying attention because Kanye's douch-ridden antics can't be escaped. He's collective-mind cancer.

I love Kanye. The more assholey he gets, the more I love him. He trolls the world.

Yeah, like Puff Daddy I can't figure out whether he's dumb as sin or brilliant enough to build a career out of the sort of demographic that those acts appeal to.

It's my understanding that he's a gay fish.
