I cleaned half of my room today

The side of the room my computer is on is clean. My bed and everything around it remains untidied.

So the Grammys were last night. They are kind of ridiculous. Green Day won another grammy for an album they put out in 2004 so did U2. I really don't understand the cutoff dates for these things. Kanye West didn't win a Grammy again, which is apparently some sort of travesty. Gwen Stefani was nominated for some of the worst music I've ever heard. I don't really know anything about the grammys. I do know that the bands I like are only allowed in the "Alternative" category. The White Stripes won best Alternative Album, beating out The Arcade Fire, Beck, Death Cab for Cutie and Franz Ferdinand. I wonder what makes Cold Play's newest album a rock album and Franz Ferdinand's new album alternative? Do the bands decide that they want to be a rock band or alternative? I haven't heard Cold Play's new album, but I'm pretty sure "You Could Have it So much Better" rocks the shit out of it. So here's my Grammy acceptance speech.

"I would like to thank everyone who made this award possible... but I'm not going to. No, right now I'm speaking to all of you that tried to stop me from getting this award. All the other nominees and everyone who voted for them, I know who you are. I can see most of you from where I'm standing right now. You motherfuckers better watch your backs. Now that I've got this *hoist up the Grammy* no one, I mean NO ONE can stop me. Your betrayals will not go unpunished. *throw down smoke bomb, escape in the confusion, say hi to Paul McCartney, maybe get his autograph*

Nice speech, but there's just something about it that makes me think it would sound even better if it was made by Ricky Gervais from BBC's The Office. That's exactly the sort of stunt he'd pull at an awards gig.
