RENT

As anyone who knows me will tell you, I really hate musicals. I hate them even more than musical comedy, and musical comedy really sucks.  I hate it.  Way too much build-up, not enough punchline.  It's a waste of everything.  And no matter how funny a joke is, if you decide to sing it instead of tell it like a normal person, it gets exactly 22.37 times less funny. Great. You have a guitar/piano and can sing.  You also like writing hokey songs with crappy jokes for lyrics.  It's still too much fucking build-up for a joke that's really not that funny. It's a joke on par with the Sunday comics.  Give it a rest and do stand up like a real comedian.  And be more funny.

Anyway, back to musicals.  I hate them.  Way too much singing and prancing, and they're all completely hokey and lame, lame, lame.  I just don't understand the fascination people have with them; especially this one.  People love it.  And I'm not talking about the people you'd expect to love it, I'm talking about people my age and younger.  Why?  So they live in an apartment complex and I'm pretty sure half of them have AIDS or some shit.  Who cares?  If that type of life appeals to you so much, you can find an apartment in a place just like that anywhere.  But when you move in, don't spontaneously start singing about your STD's when your new neighbors ask how your day is going, otherwise they're going to rightly assume you're crazy and put you in a box with a good lock on it.  Which is probably where you belong anyway if you like this crap.

I have never seen Rent.  I have no desire to see Rent.  I've seen other musicals and they've scarred me for life.  Whatever horrible thing I did in my past, sitting through all the musicals I've seen more than makes up for it.
