Dick Clark


Can there be a more depressing way to ring in the New Year than watching Dick Clark? Seriously. He needs to retire forever and let that craptastic shitbag Ryan Seacrest takeover.

I have respect for Dick Clark. He is an icon and I have a lot of respect for him in general. It takes a lot of courage for somebody to go through something like that to appear on national t.v.

My problem with it is as the years go by I am not getting any younger. You start thinking things like "oh fuck, I'm gonna be 30 this year" or "I need to start getting prostate exams." This is not easy shit to think about. You want the new year to be a party and be excited about it.

Looking at Dick Clark is basically like watching Amy Winehouse do the countdown. You know you shouldn't laugh, but you can't help but let out a slight giggle. Also, he is still counting down 5 minutes into the New Year. Time to limp out of the business Dick. Happy New Year.
