Shortly after my Lost and Heroes Hate Black People video for Comedy.com hit the viral scene, major blogs have been picking it up. One of the most major is Deadline Hollywood, a very popular entertainment blog. Nikki Finke was gracious enough to share some of her blogospace for my nerdy rant. And Nikki, Miss Finke if you nasty, I thank you for that.
But of course, there’s already haters in the comments! I see a couple of comments calling me “pointless” and bashing the fact that I’m talking about black actors getting work. I’m all for black actors getting work! Also… IT’S A FRAKKIN’ JOKE PEOPLE! I’m a frequent Heroes follower (though I need to catch up on last volume and a half) and I’m a true Lostie if you ever saw one (What sickness does Claire and Sayid have? I wanna know!) So take a chill pill, haters. Man, it’s like my Charles Barkley rant all over again.
Note to self: Apparently, Black Nerd rants get people riled up. May have to continue these…
Also want to thank the following sites for also linking to my video. And again a special thanks to Comedy.com for appreciating my talents. I thank them for constantly thinking of me and embracing my black nerdiness.

LOVED it! Laughed all the way through. It’s great to have the perspective of a black nerd. I read the comments on the Deadline Hollywood post too and was quite frankly baffled that they didn’t get the humor. People took it WAY too personally. Thanks for the video! You have a new fan.

Latinageek, thank you so much. I really do appreciate your new fanship. I’ll have to check out your website as well. And no worries about the people who can’t get it. If a video starts out mentioning BlackNerdComedy.com AND Comedy.com and they still can’t get it’s tongue-in-cheek, then they have bigger problems LOL!
