Grammy Meltdowns

It looks like that was a stroke. Aphasia, in any case. Just because this one is obsessing me, I transcribed what she said...

"Well, a beary, very heavayyy, uh heavy bertacion tonight. We had a very, very daress...Darrison by...Let's go 'head and...Terratization in a little bet. The hev the pet."

That look she gets as she realizes that she's gone incoherent is fucking terrifying. This, of course, was something I first saw on some WTF LOL bullshit website this morning, and was expecting it to be funny. Turns out it ain't.

Yes, lets mock the person having a traumatic brain injury.

Dear Portland Mercury editors: what is a "Fnarf?"

She didn't have a stroke, she's okay, lighten up people.

Jezus, that's uncomfortable.

Glossolalia? Maybe she's burnin' with the fire of Jeebus?

Graham, that wasn't me mocking her just for the record.

Have you ever gotten so tongue tied that most of the viewing nation assumed you were having a stroke?

I felt pretty bad for her until I found out that she was star-struck after meeting an agitatated Elton John wandering around the parking lot looking for someone with whom to play a duet...

Seriously, I doubt anything is wrong with her, but I'm sure there is a really awkward meeting scheduled for her today...

So, good luck on that one.

Neurological testing would be a good idea. Being "checked out by a paramedic (who does not have the training to access such matters)" is insufficient.
