Snoop and Lee

I just saw the Chrysler ad in which Snoop Dogg golfs with Lee Iacocca. The ad seems to want to play on the humor of the geriatric Iacocca golfing with an iconic rapper, but there's a problem: it's not funny. Pink plaid is never funny. As they make their way around the course, Snoop brags to Iacocca (in his trademark MTV Snoop-speak) about his new Chrysler; Lee can't understand Snoop's English, but he ends the ad by telling his partner, "I don't know what you just said, but I guess now everyone gets a great deal at Chrysler." Translation: Chrysler is no longer just for white people? Blacks now welcome at Chrysler dealerships? Any molecule of humor is crushed under the weight of this odd bit of racism.

And didn't Snoop pronounce "fo' shizzle" dead months ago?

Cheers.
