A Comedy of Horrors

A Comedy of Horrors
The first talent I learned I had was drawing, which I discovered at about the age of seven. The next one I discovered in myself was songwriting, at about the age of thirteen. I was a songwriter long before I ever wrote a comedy script. That's why I would like to be able to sing and play my songs before I'm sixty-five. But NBC discovered my comedy writing skills first. They think I'm their comedy writer instead of a musician.

Do you recall how easy it was for me to catch up with those songs the Crystalids stole from me? Over seventy of them. No one accused me of stealing them. And that was when networks like NBC still had most of the scripts I've rewritten in the last four years. You trust me when the TV says I'm legitimate. But ever since I've been rewriting those scripts, I've been constantly assaulted by false accusations of fraud and of being a 'hack'. I'm just being myself in my own words, the same way I reproduced my songs, but no one believes me when the TV disagrees with me. Look how much those TV stars stole from me. Since I'm more interested in my music, I would have sold it all to them cheap and they still would have made a fortune. But they were too arrogant. They had to plagiarize it all. Thousands of posts. How can you support them without hurting me?

Do you need me to be friends with Dateline before you'll accept me? If you do, maybe you should go and party with Dateline. Bring a cute little hamster with you and a blowtorch. Have fun.
