You can dress a pig up in flannel and give it a sitcom, but that does not make it a human.

On Behaving Like a Human:
[A woman wrote to Roseanne defending Brad and Angelina, citing the contributions they've made to charity, ($23 million just this year), and arguing that dubbing Angelina the "spawn of Satan" is, perhaps, unnecessarily harsh. The woman then politely requested that Roseanne apologize to Brad and Angelina. Roseanne reacted just like a totally not crazy human being, saying, (among other things):]On Denver, Colorado:
On Race, Religion and Poverty:
Okay, no.
Because, I mean, Roseanne, it seems like when you hear "poor," you immediately think of a very specific race. Which, I gotta say, isn't standard. Because when I think "poor," for example, the first thing that comes into my head isn't any one race. It's "pee pee." Because poor people very often smell like pee pee.
Moving on, though, this issue is similar. How is this war a 'holy' war? "Poor" isn't a religion either. Is someone trying to convert the poor? To what? Also, who is waging this war against the poor? And how is it paying such 'great dividends?' Is there a lot of money to be had in racist holy wars against the defenseless and economically crippled?
Roseanne, I don't think you're very bright at all.

There you have it. My final review on the blog? If you're one of those people who, when faced with a terribly complex problem, decides to come up with an overly simplistic yet shockingly misguided and uninformed solution, Roseanne's blog sounds right up your stupid fucking alley. If not, you can skip it and just go back to the way things used to be, (i.e., about a week ago when you either forgot Roseanne existed or assumed she'd politely and gracefully died of bacon-related complications years ago).
*UPDATE*: I made an account for and was subsequently banned from the Roseanne Barr forums. Neat!
