Ali G Commencement Speach

Ali G was the commencement speaker for Harvard’s graduation this year. Funny stuff, and I’m really surprised he got away with all of it. Have fun reading it though, it’s literally written in the way he speaks.

Anyways I digest. It iz a well big honour to be arksed ere today. To fink dat so many great people has been educated ere like Lyndon Banes Johnson, or as he is better known - JFK, George Clinton was also ere I fink , and de one before him, and also…William Tell - is he one of your lot, probably, and dat bloke wiv de hat, but most importantly dat really fit honey from Star Wars - if u iz out dere, me’d love to - me iz stayin at de Best Western Hotel - me’s got a really nice room, altho since dis morning dem has put a parental lock on de tv.

Relationships should be brought into dis -de 20th centrury - u women out dere shouldn’t have to do de cookin and de cleanin when u come home from work - u should do it before u leave in de morning.
