Whoops, Kanye West, You Made This

I've never wished that I was friends with Kanye before. I like his music. I think his silly boasting is funny. He seems like a perfectly nice person, especially for a fame. But I've been happy admiring him from afar. Until now. I really want to be friends with Kanye West now. We could just chill and do whatever. Come over, dude. I've got an XBOX! I'll make omelets! When he comes over, I'll be like "bring your laptop, we can make goof-around beats," but secretly when he is using the bathroom because of so many mimosas, I will log into his Vimeo account and I will delete this incredibly embarrassing and completely misguided video. BECAUSE THAT IS WHAT FRIENDS DO.

Speaking of friends, thanks for the tip, Megan.

if you listen to this with your eyes closed, Kanye's cadence and tone (and megalomania) are very very similar to Mr. Chi-City.

oh yea and - WTF was this?

This is so hilarious!!! I cant even be mad at Kanye! The tone of his voice sounds like a complete JOKE!!! Hahahahaha! These are the type of things that you get to share and joke about with your friends and family. It's kinda sad that he doesnt have anyone to share his success with but like they say, its lonely at the top...

crap like this makes me embarrassed to be a fan of his music. with that said, amy winehouse was absolutely right. she may be a deranged, belligerent crackhead with a terrible fashion sense but at least she's not a c*** like kanye. kudos amy!

I like that he personalized his hotel room by lining up his fresh kicks on the coffee tables.

What I love about Kanye is that he's a real super-flawed human being (I'm aware that by saying "real" and "super-flawed", I'm being redundant). I'm sure if I was in his place, I'd make stupid videos for others to regret!

I know right? Replace "stupid videos" with semi-coherent, quasi funny and comprehensive/observational "Oh my God you won't believe what I am getting into, right now" texts always sent to my closest of friends while inebriated, and you got me in a nutshell. (I actually let people know that we're on good terms once you start gettin said texts on a regular basis)
