hating on ashton: not a sin, possibly a vice

We are not huge fans of Vice (the magazine, that is), although their never-failing ability to make mainstream media look stupid is admittedly amusing. Maybe we're just jealous of the amount of money they have made from exploiting the hipster phenom. Whatevs. This is not about Vice. This is about Ashton Kutcher.

Two-twenty avoided watching the VH1 "Big in '03" "awards" for obvious reasons. Then last night, with no Average Joe to placate us, we caved and watched the extravaganza's 3,008th showing. Ashton received some idiotic invention called the "Big Stylin'" award.

Now, Ashton was fine when he was just one little part of an ensemble cast on the entertainingly offbeat first season of That 70's Show. Ever since then he has grown more and more in need of a swift kick to the head. As Ashton made his acceptance speech for the cashmoneyhos or pimpdaddy or whatever award, he basically called himself the most original man in the world, in part because of his amazing accomplishment of single-handedly making the ugliest piece of American headgear a de rigeur fashion accessory.

Ashton, we want you to know that you are not original. THIS guy, from Vice's fashion "Dos" column, is original.
