In case you didn't watch the Academy Awards....

The grand irony is that Kimmel and the Hollywood cohort no doubt think they are helping matters, ultra-virtuous warriors and deep thinkers, living monuments to the beatitudes of liberal progressivism – and that can only be good, because they are good, and they know they're good because they care.  
And the award for Most Insufferable Virtue-Signaling goes to...  . . . "So we are asked to engorge a banquet of self-aggrandizement from an endless conga line of over-lauded thespians, so deep into their method-acting role as, apparently, the wisest of the wise that they have actually come to believe it, utterly incapable of recognizing themselves for what they really are: politicized hacks whose happenstance has found them in the klieg lights, in front of a microphone, bent on convincing the world that people who disagree with them are, let's face it, no damn good." . . .

The best and worst moments of the Oscars  "Obviously, this year’s Academy Awards were never going to match last year’s utter disaster. But did the ceremony have to be so utterly boring? By the end of the nearly four-hour ordeal, it was a challenge to stay awake. Can’t wait to see how far the ratings plummeted from last year’s 32.9 million. Still, a few moments stood out." . . .
