never heard of him."
use of adjective:
"Don't look, but there's Ryan. Oh my God, he's so seacrest - he's still telling jokes even though no one is laughing, even as they walk away. And that impression of Austin Powers? Eh, so seacrest."
use of noun:
"That seacrest kept going on and on about what chitlins are as if NOBODY in America knows what that is except like, four people from the south. What's his white ass got against soul food? Generalizing then trying to marginalize African-Americans is NOT
entertaining."
