This simple bit of poetry limerick sheds light on how performers without enough talent used to be received by their audiences.... and it sure wasn't politically correct! No American Idol lingo here - Kara couldn't say: "I'm sorry, sweetie", while Randy shakes his head and says: "I don't know, dude....you know, for you for me, it just wasn't that great, for me. Just keepin' it real, dude."
And Simon's comments about it being a horrible performance? His comments would seem to be as kind as Paula's tend to be!
I wonder what would happen if we brought back "So You Think You've Got Talent" a few decades ago, and let the audiences vote with their vegetables???
