It must have been somewhat amusing to have been in McKay Hatch’s “No Cussing Club” when he started it in his middle school about three years ago. It must have been hilarious when he continued it into high school. But somewhere between the self-help book deal, the appearance on Jay Leno, and the fact that, well, he’s spearheading the same closed-mindedness that I thought we’d just elected out of office… his whole schtick just isn’t funny anymore. Although I don’t think he intended it to be funny at all.
Like some real life version of Tracy Flick, McKay’s club has grown into a mini empire. He’s only about seventeen years old but seems to have turned the club into some sort of “Say No To Peer Pressure!” neo-Con thing where swearing, drinking, drugs, and basically everything fun is off bounds because doing any of those would be succumbing to peer pressure. Wait. Isn’t what he’s doing a form of peer pressure?
This is what happens when no-one gets you into either hip hop or punk rock in high school! There’s a reason you’re not supposed to listen to your parents from 13-18.
Proving once again that mediocrity rises to the middle he will be appearing on Jay Leno tonight to spew off his hate speak of equality via assimilation. For those of you into future train wrecks tune in, because once this kid hits 25 and wakes up with no friends and 600 copies of his self-help book it’s going to a full on Corey Haim meltdown.
