Eddie Murphy was going to be shit on by Keith no matter what he did.

1) If he performed on the Oscars and killed, Keith would say "He is still a great as a stand up, yet he deprived people of all this good stand up in favor of doing shitty movies for 15 years? Fuck this guy."

2)If he did it and bombed, Keith would say: "Oh, just what I thought, he lost it a long time ago. Probably never had it."

But now that Eddie bowed out (obviously because Ratner was fired) now Keith and the KATG community says he's "scared". Uh, this is the same guy who first did stand up at 15 years old, from 19 years old through his early 20s he performed weekly in front of millions on Saturday Night Live (and for most of the audience, he was the only reason to watch the show at that point.)

Then at ages 21 through 26 he did an hour and a half of material for thousands every night on the tours around the country that would become the basis for "Raw" and "Delirious". Between that time and now, he's doing major motion pictures, usually dressing up in drag, fat suits, or made up to look like a little Jewish Man. But this seasoned performer of more than thirty years is "scared" to do the Oscars. Uh, Okay.

Admittedly, like many folks, I am not excited about Murphy's movies anymore. But the guy did his job and kicked ass thru the 80s. Keith, how much material did you and your comedian friends have at age 21? Did you have an hour and a half? Did you have 10 minutes?

BTW, Murphy recently said in a Rolling Stone interview that he is a semi-retired gentlemen of leisure who only does the projects that he really wants to do. He earned that. Clearly he didn't care to do the Oscars in the first place, only as a favor to Brett Ratner. Ratner's gone, so Eddie is out, too. That's the deal. And that is fine by me. I don't need to hear the critics breakdown every joke he was going to do that night on all the post Oscars shows..

Why don't you marry him?

Will this whole Penn State thing make it easier for me if I try to apply to their graduate program next year?

That's a good one Keith. Why don't you add that to your set for next year?

Ashton Kutcher in the first Butterfly Effect was way better than any of the shit Eddie Murphy has done in the last 15 years

But either his stupid or it was just a mistake. I mean thank god for Skim That, you see a headline and then the article just takes forever to get to the point maybe he just looked at a headline or a news promo, made an assumption, and tweeted it. Can't really hate on him since his owning up to his mistake and handing over control of the feed, he must feel like a dumbass, where Hiliary Swank on the other hand just found someone else to blame (her PR) and is moving on with her life not giving what she's done a second thought.

Clever retort as well, kudos
