“Egotism is nature’s compensation for mediocrity.”

As we all know, Kanye is a self-absorbed waterhead without a thought filter on his mouth. His stupid interruption of the WMA awards revealed his coarseness. Everything that could have been said about the incident has been said (though some more insightful than others) and, barring any more ridiculous outbursts from Kanye, this matter should die a quick death.
What is noteworthy, however, is the complete inability to find the actual video on YouTube. A simple search reveals pages and pages of what seem to be the actual video, but then turn out to be self-serving commentaries by anonymous people from across the blogosnet. Each and every one talks about how self-centered and rude the interruption was and how he/she is outraged by the actions. And yet, here we have thousands of people using Kanye’s transgression to further their own internet stardom. So much so that even the original video isn’t even readily available.
This is where modern culture is heading, folks.

And yet, here we have thousands of people using this very transgression to further their own internet stardom. So much so that even the original video isn’t even readily available on the most popular video sharing site.
