I'm beginning to loathe Neil Patrick Harris. He's overrated, overexposed, and if he wasn't as queer as Anderson Cooper's per gerbil, he never would have gotten away with the Barney character on "How I Met Your Mother."

Talk about a double standard. If a straight guy played that character, every woman's group in America would have boycotted that show for its misogyny, and it wouldn't have made it through the first season. But because Harris is so fashionably gay and revered out in Hollyweird, he has a lifetime gig as the host of his choice of awards shows.

And as an aside, the Oscars become a bigger joke every year.
