Martin Luther King Jr

I have a dream that my face will one day scrub people's balls.

We're back! Tuesday on an ALL NEW episode of Tosh.0, we give this little dreamer a Web Redemption.

Tune in to Tosh Tuesdays at ten!

I have a dream, and in it a bunch of redneck kids try to dress up like Martin Luther King, Jr. It's a really funny dream.

Featuring some of the latest Twitter and Facebook comments about Tosh.0.

Oh, we're working.  #IsItRacist?

I have a dream that one day a white kid will attribute a quote to me in his senior yearbook. And the quote will be about tacos.

To paraphrase Martin Luther King, Jr., "If a man is called to be a silk bagger, he should bag silk even as Michelangelo painted, or Beethoven composed music, or Shakespeare wrote poetry. He should bag silk so well that all the hosts of heaven and earth will pause to say, here, look at this Indian guy on YouTube."

"Oh, I thought you were talking about Martin Luther King, Sr.  Why did he die?  You don't know, do you??  Who's stupid now, jerk!"

But in all seriousness, this was taken from an article in the Citrus County Chronicle and that girl is just 12 years old.

Way to publicly embarrass a sixth grader, Citrus Country Chronicle.  You're doing a bang up job over there.

Breaking news: 12-year-olds say dumb shit.  That's no reason to plaster their face all over the paper.  Maybe a second grader pissed his pants in class.  Make sure you get a reporter on the scene for that too.  Front page material.

Yesterday was Martin Luther King, Jr. Day and the Internet was buzzing over the latest creation by auto-tune icons, The Gregory Brothers.

As The Daily What stated: "The Gregory Brothers honor the great civil rights leader on his special day with an uplifting remix of his legendary 'I?ve Been to the Mountaintop' address."

Yes, what an honor: Chopping up a speech by one of the greatest orators in American history and bastardizing it with auto-tune.

Part of the MLK legacy is the power of his voice and the precision of his prosody.  Why would you want to mess with that?

This makes about as much sense as flying to England to celebrate the Fourth of July or showing your support for Earth Day by throwing a ticker-tape parade.
