I shouldn't be so happy that a song titled "It's Hard Out Here for a Pimp" just got an Oscar, but I am.
Has it been performed yet? I'm curious as to how they tried to make it Oscar-friendly.
No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I didn't care for "Hustle & Flow" - although I found the movie unintentionally hilarious. I think it is hilarious that the song won.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
"I think it just got a little easier out here for a pimp!"

That is so awesome. I'm cracking up.
A-T-L is in the house! (Luda looks so...non-rapper-ish in his tux.)
I'm curious as to how they tried to make it Oscar-friendly.
They changed up some words and bleeped out some others.

Oh, I almost wish Jennifer had fallen down, that would've been very funny. Sad for her. But funny.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I must put in a "but so many things look better when you've got something to fill out the top of that dress with!"
All your dresses should are belong to me. Is all.
I love Jennifer Garner! So much, that she even makes Affleck more personable.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
Actually, if JG fell, got up, then said, "I do all my stunts," it would have been funnier.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
Jon was right - it was nice to see someone actually excited.
and the sound editing 'commercial' was actually funny.
