Levi Johnston is a punk

I try very hard to ignore Levi Johnston.

Sarah Palin's ex-son-in-law-to-be (how's that for a sideswipe with fame?) is such a disgusting, conscious-less individual, it makes me physically angry to think that anyone pays him any attention at all.

Can you imagine the horror his now-infant son will someday feel as he learns of how his father aired his family's dirty laundry, even to the point of his sexual history with his mother, in the name of money and fame?

But last night, in his latest desperate attempt to snatch some fleeting moments of fame from the underbelly of the discarded-remnants gutter, Johnston showed up with self-described D-lister Kathy Griffin -- who is disgusting in her own right -- at the Teen Choice Awards.

... as her date.

Eww.

I don't know for whom this is more embarrassing: Johnston, who clearly thinks of himself as some sort of manly "stud," or the washed-up Griffin, who was toting around a dude young enough to be her son. I know they say that the only bad publicity is no publicity, but I'm pretty sure those rules don't apply when you have a child -- which Johnston, obviously, does.

And then I realized it: Johnston and Griffin are both obnoxious blemishes on the complexion of humanity.

Even more than being perfect for each other, they deserve each other.

I wish them long lives of happiness ... in complete obscurity.
