Celebrity Whores

So I’m sitting in Property. My internet is going in and out. I’m tired of this. It’s Thursday. I get to go home soon. I'm sure that Tim Brown is looking over my shoulder as I type this. I KNOW YOU'RE READING THIS, TIM BROWN! I KNOW!!

Oh! I read a really great article in Newsweek about motherhood. It had great feminist undertones and the proposals she makes in the article are wonderful. I would post a link to it, but it costs money to get. Damn crap ass. I have a copy of it at my house. You'll have to come over to read it. Then we'll make out.

Ashlee Simpson & Paris Hilton. These two idiots are driving me crazy. Think about it for a moment – what have they honestly contributed to society? (aside from Ashlee’s amazingly creative debut album) I can’t figure out our culture’s obsession with them. Ashlee simply rode her sister’s coattails to fame. Her father is obviously calling all the shots. She’s completely lacking in real musical talent or creativity. Why is she still here? Why?! Why do I keep hearing these people’s names in the news? Paris Hilton is always everywhere all over the place on magazine covers yada yada… She’s rich. That’s it. She has accomplished nothing notable. She isn’t interesting or intelligent. She’s a typical asinine sorority girl, but she’s worth millions. Is she happy? Does her life seem meaningful to her?

Here's a list I just came across from the beginning of the year. I was keeping track of things I hate. It was a good exercise in eye rolling and angry typing...


THINGS I HATE

-when someone asks “does anyone have any questions,” and someone else asks a question just for the sake of asking a question

-when someone explains something they already know I am aware of.

-when people’s voices carry into quiet areas of the library

-when drunk people get loud in large groups at restaurants

-sorority girls on cell phones

-fuck it, anyone on cell phones

-Hi-Liter retractable highlighters that run out of ink in just a week’s time


Wasn't that a great exercise in public bitching? These really are the things that drive me crazy. Come to think of it - put Paris Hilton & Ashlee Simpson on that list. Fuck 'em.
