Sidney Poitier Can’t Fart
Thursday, October 4th, 2007I feel really sorry for the great leaders and role models in our society. Having to compose oneself with dignity and virtuosity 24/7 doesn’t sound like an easy or enjoyable way to live to me.
Being the scum of the Earth, I take a lot of things for granted. I can dress in torn clothing, not comb my hair and fart in the company of others, all without being knocked down a peg.
You can’t get much lower than scum.
Sidney Poitier, however, being a very important role model for black people, has way too much riding on his ass to be seen farting. If Sidney Poitier farts, it will be all over the news the next day, the civil rights movement will be knocked back 10 years and his illustrious career will be all but forgotten, just because of the the simple act of passing gass.
So, the next time you fart in your friend’s face or entrap your wife in a Dutch oven, remember to think of all those poor dignified folks that retained their farts so you wouldn’t have to.
