SHUT UP GEORGE CLOONEY I don't know why I bother with him. Why do I click on those links? Do I really care about George Clooney? I must. I am morbidly fascinated with his old "matinee idol" standing, and truth be told, I find him attractive...but this has taken a turn for the worse. Not only am I annoyed to find out (through like 16th person sources a/k/a blogs) that he has shirts that read "George Clooney 2008" but now, he's trying to outwit the paps.
First of all, does the paparazzi even care about him? I feel like he's not nearly as scandalous, or as young, as is required to adorn the covers of US Weekly or People (that magazine has been around for so, so long, its unreal). I do not read those magazines so for all I know, he's splashed all over it, on Lake Como in his Italian villa, reading like...the Atlantic Monthly...drinking wine...thinking about how smart he is...is that really something that people who read US Weekly and People really care about? I think not, and so I say, George, stop pretending people outside of the over 40 circle really care about your going ons. I don't, and I have a very select interest in Celeb Gossip (read: ...um, well I used to and let me tell you, that baby Suri is one cute kid) and George C is def not on that Must Read/Must See/Must Spend $4 To Look At Glossy Pics/list. Anyway, I read enough to know that he has a strategy (and btw, how amazingly indicative of how UNQUALIFIED HE IS to run for president with this half ass, not witty strategy) of how to out wit those nasty little snappers - just date everyone! One girl one day, some startlet another, some socialite the next...and then he made some lame ass comment about Leo DiCaprio. Whatever, you're NOT FUNNY. And f- you Associated Press for wasting time and a writer on THIS CRAP. I thought that there was some "real" issues going on (some pedophile in denial republican blaming a clergyman for his porno im's and texts to some 16 year old boy; North korea about to test some nukes; yet ANOTHER school shooting - 2/3 which focused on killing and molesting females only;...and you know, that pesky war in Iraq)...so to spend time on GEORGE CLOONEY'S THOUGHTS HAS REALLY PUT MY DISDAIN INTO THE STAGE OF PURE HATE FOR CELEBRITY ACTIVISTS. THEY GET NEEDLESS PRESS FOR DOING ABSOLUTELY NOTHING IN "REAL"NEWS SOURCES. This isn't the Superficial folks. Its the AP, its CNN. COME ON.
...phew. okay, tantrum done.
I am sort of hating everything lately though so whatever... Today some bus driver said something to me and I just stared him down. He backed off. He did, seriously. He said something to me I didn't hear, I took off the headphones and said "excuse me?" and he repeated it (wasn't.listening) and I just stared...and he said never mind. Honestly, this also stems from being really damn tired of being sexually harassed. So for not talking to me further, I say: THANK YOU.
To be honest, I wasn't proud be/c I realized just how mean I can be and thats not nice. I really tried to be nice to the barista's later, but overall, today's lesson was: I was just amazed that the tactic of when I don't respond and just "look" at someone, they'll shut up. Oh, if only it were that simple in all my annoyances. That'd be like magic. I don't like you. You bother me. Shut up. Put your hand down. Yes, i'm in a bitchy mood but SO WHAT. At least i'm not taking this out on someone who really matters to me. Maybe I really am a mean person. Or maybe I am just really tired of feeling like what matters in the world, what we need people to think about, gets completely shut down when someone who CLAIMS to care about global affairs surfaces as the truly selfish and egotistic ass that he is - and yes, George Clooney, I am directing this at you. If you really cared about the world, you'd shut up and not "boggle our minds" with that sad, pathetic, and incredibly over fed ego of yours.
