It's time for Donkey of the Day. It's a read, but you're so good at it. You're trying to be a fake-ass Charlemagne. There's only one Charlemagne to go. Damn, Charlemagne, who you give a Donkey of the Day to now? Well, Sexy Red, Donkey of the Day for Thursday, September 5th, goes to a 28-year-old woman from Louisville named Ricky Smith. Okay, Ricky Smith was arrested after she claimed Kanye West told her to steal a car.

Let's go to WDRB for the report, please. Woman was arrested in Evansville after she claims Kanye West told her to steal a car. Let's go to WDRB for the report, please. A woman was arrested in Evansville after she claims Kanye West told her to steal a car that had a child inside. Evansville police responded to calls of a woman trying to get into random cars Friday morning. Officers arrested Ricky Smith after a woman, says Smith, tried to steal her car with her child in the backseat. When police asked Smith why she tried to take the car, she said that Kanye West spoke to her telegraphically and told her to steal it. Smith is charged with attempted kidnapping and attempted auto theft. Now, let me be the first to say, there are a lot of things we can blame Kanye West for.

There are a lot of things I would like to blame Kanye West for, but this isn't one of them. Okay, this young lady said Kanye West spoke to her telegraphically. Now, if you know anything about me, then you know I'm a huge comic book fan. Marvel is my favorite. I have a tattoo of Wolverine on my right arm. I am a massive X-Men fan. The leader of the X-Men is Charles Xavier, Professor X. Now, I'm not the highest grade of weed in the dispensary, but Professor X's power is telepathy. I believe the first time I even heard about telepathy was because of Charles Xavier. Telepathy allows him to read and control the minds of others. He is considered one of the most powerful telepaths in the world and can read minds within a 250-mile radius.

Telepathy. So I was confused when I heard Ricky Smith say Kanye West spoke to her telegraphically. That didn't sound like anything Charles Xavier could do. Now, I looked up telegraphically, and telegraphically means in a way that is short and does not use extra words. There is no way Kanye West would ever speak to someone telegraphically because he uses a lot of words. Okay, he talks a lot, and it wouldn't be short.

Let me use it in a sentence. As a headline writer, his job is to come up with a telegraphically brief description of what each article is about. What I'm trying to tell you is that telegraphically has nothing to do with telepathy. I did some research and by research, I mean, I asked chat GPT. I said, chat GPT, what's the difference between telegraphically and telepathy? And chat GPT told me like 30 to 40 grand game cock sucker beat it. Okay. That's Jay-Z imaginary player, Googler kids. Chat GPT actually told me that telegraphically and telepathy refer to two very different concepts okay telegraphically relates to the use of a telegraph which is the device used in the 19th and early 20th centuries to send messages over long distances using electric signals now Kanye West samples

a lot of old music but I didn't know he also sampled old technology okay there is a big difference between speaking through the wire and speaking through Morse code. If Kanye is resorting to Morse code, then wherever he is must have trash ass Wi-Fi. I mean, if he's doing Morse code, then his Wi-Fi is as unstable as he is. Okay, dot, dot, dash, Ricky, I'm gonna let you finish, but Grand Theft Auto has the greatest car thefts of all time. Now, telepathy refers to the ability to transmit thoughts or feelings between

individuals without using traditional communication methods the moral of the story is kanye west did not tell this woman to steal a car telegraphically or with telepathy okay ricky wrecked her car but told police her car broke down then she jumped into a woman's vehicle while the other woman walked into a store she was pulled out of vehicle, and since the child was inside the car during the incident, she was charged with attempted kidnapping and attempted auto theft. This has nothing to do with Kanye West, y'all. This has to do with poor choices

and clear mental health issues, okay? I believe there should be consequences for Ricky Smith's actions, but when we are considering the consequences, please consider that something is clearly not right with this young lady mentally. Okay, we can't just be sending folks to prison. If these are correctional facilities, then let them do some actual correcting by getting this woman the proper mental health resources she needs.

But in the meantime, we also have to give her the credit she deserves for making stupid choices. Please give Ricky Smith the sweet sounds of the Hamiltons, please. You are the donkey of the day. You are the donkey of the day. Yee-haw. Now, I just spoke about providing proper mental health resources to folks, right? And if you know anything about me, you know I'm a huge mental health advocate, okay? I encourage you to invest in your mental wealth. And if you don't have the resources to properly invest in your mental wealth, let me help you, okay?
