I've been thinking--I think a great deal, especially about the primitives on Skins's island--that there might, or might not, be a new category when nominations and voting for the top primitives of 2011 come up.
The nominating-and-voting procedure for the top primitives will be simpler this year than in the past, and here I go again, having greatly simplified something, turning around and expanding it again.
You know, there's some primitives who are just downright boring. Yawn-inspiring.
So when doing the Top Ten DUmmies of 2011, I'm thinking about adding "most boring primitive of 2011."
This idea was inspired when I read the latest whinings by Oscar Wilde, the large-proboscised primitive, the "Cyrano" primitive.
Man, that's a really really really boring primitive, the whining Oscar Wilde.
It's difficult to believe he's actually as old as he is, because he comes across as a whiny girl-child.
There's also the dorkio primitive, who's pretty boring.
However, unlike Oscar Wilde, the dorkio primitive still holds some residual fascination, and he's probably going to get better during the presidential campaign next year.
It's always been fascinating to me, how the "authenticator of blackness" on Skins's island so stalwartly defends a president who's only half-black, and who has no idea, no idea at all, of what it's liking, growing up and being black in America.
The dorkio primitive of course knows what it's like, and one respects him for that. As do Clarence Thomas, Condaleeza Rice, Alan West, Alan Keyes, J.C. Watts, &c., &c., &c.; they all know what it's like, growing up and being black in America.
But this guy, who the dorkio primitive insists is "black," in addition to being only 50% African derivation, is of an African derivation opposite the African derivation of most Americans of African derivation. The latter came from western Africa; the former from eastern Africa.
Anyone who knows the least smidgeon about African history and culture knows what that means.
And of course there's that little detail about having been born into, and raised by, an affluent family of European derivation. I don't think that's been a common denominator among most Americans of African derivation.
It is possible Barack Obama and franksolich have more similarities than the Big Zero and the dorkio primitive.
This seems the only thing that keeps the dorkio primitive from being as boring as Oscar Wilde; his constant defense of a president the dorkio primitive thinks is "black," when in fact other than just simple skin color, he shares nothing with the dorkio primitive.
At this stage of the year, who do you think is the most boring primitive?
