Dear Street Carnage,
This is a video of a friend on ’shrooms chatting up Chomsky about American Idol, a show my friend has appeared on as an awesome asshole.
This is why he can talk about the show with some authority:

Dear Zamiang,
I like how Chomsky compares intellectuals in the past to prophets and proceeds to describe himself perfectly. He literally thinks he’s Jesus.
Love,
-SBTVC
P.S. Your friend rules.

SC ripping on professors and smart people is getting old, but you’re right about Chomsky being a crybaby pantload.

I thought the Idol audition was fairly brilliant.

The one main thing I actually agree with Chomsky in this interview is his views on authorship. Identification of something that is actual written provides some sort of legitimacy in alleging something.
That’s why everything written in the Rotten Library and NNDB is suspect. Even if they can be somewhat informative and funny, fucking Russ Meyer Disinfo books are still more legit.
Anyways, what balls shroom guy. What balls.

man thats like my dream shrooms buddy, noam.

I just can’t believe he just bullshitted a figure who he is an icon of the liberal establishment. Just bullshitting this guy to keep on talking while he’s tripping on shrooms. Just bullshitting. The only way to top this would be to interview an ex-President on acid.

This is beyond my threshold of conscious perception. I don’t know whether to shit or go blind.

More like Gnome Cheescake.

“He literally thinks he’s Jesus.”
Let’s not get crazy. He clearly thinks he’s Paul.
No Heeb, no matter how anti-Zionist or “self-hating” he may be, would ever think of himself as Jesus.
It’s just against the Heeb way.

your friend is a genius. the American Idol video proves his thesis from the Chomsky interview. That song he did was perfect. I think those chicks had the hots for him and were passive-aggressively taking their self-loathing from being on such a crap show out on him because he’s real and not some ass-kisser. that was awesome!
06.09.10 at 10:24 pm
Wow, have that guy write stuff for you. Fucking amazing. I feel like I just took a shower after rolling around in the shit that was Benjamin Leo’s last article.

How does Chomsky see himself as Jesus? By saying in the past the critical thinkers and intellectuals of the time were seen as prophets? Ummm, I don’t think he once says I’m a prophet, I’m jesus, its a simple historical fact/interpretation. And it makes sense when you think of what citizens were literate, educated, etc.
And even though some of the kids ideas are a little off, Chomsky reels him back in with the right ideas.
Finally, I suppose its funny that this kid goes and hassles everyone at American Idol, and maybe no-one would see he’s critique of American Idol without him going and making a scene on the show… but if he’s out to prove a point I’d rather see him sit down for a couple weeks write a strong paper/speech and then read it.

Yeah man those chicks were definitely into him, but I hate it when people say “poor boy” instead of “poor girl” in that song. It’s about a fucking female prostitute, not a gigolo. Glad to see that profs and students are having the same stupid convos at MIT that I had with my profs at state U. 15 years ago. Come up with some new material already.
06.10.10 at 10:04 am
I highly doubt that Chomsky would care that the kid’s on mushrooms, and I don’t think the kid is “getting away with something”. It seems to me that both individuals are taking one another as they are and having an exchange in good faith, even though the kid is clearly not very articulate or well read. Chomsky isn’t a snob, and engages people from wherever they’re at.
06.10.10 at 10:12 am
Yeah he would are you retarded? Chomsky would have immediately walked out on him.
Fuck, now I just remember Ali G.

I bit the inside of my mouth and it hurt.

boring boring boring….who would wanna talk to that old fart anyway?
06.28.10 at 12:24 am
Chomsky rules! I liked Andrew better on AI.. he sounded loaded when talking with Noam.
