Paris

I must be missing something because I just don’t seem to get it. Try as I may to partake in the globally shared revulsion for Paris, I’m just not feeling it. I stumbled on yet another blog where the author feels the world would a better place if she was ‘shot into space and left there to die a slow and painful death’. So this begs the question: Why does everyone rag on Paris Hilton?

- Could it be her sense of style?
No she didint! Is that… *gasp*… the same dress she wore to that thing at that place last month!?! Not only is it REPEATED but also hopelessly OUTDATED! Holy MotherofGod, this must be the end of the world as we know it.
So the fluorescent pink top does not go with the lime green mini skirt. Infact it couldn’t possibly go with any colour known to man. Boo-freaking-hoo. Let's line up the firing squad.

- Maybe because she’s rich?
Selfish bitch. Why didn’t she do the right thing and politely decline her inheritance: No thank you daddy. I would much rather spend my entire life in a tiny cubicle trying to figure out which spot to bang my head against next while I desperately try to regain feeling in my lips from kissing my boss’ ass all freaking day and trying very hard not to drive my pencil into the next fucker who calls me ‘the chick who sits by the water cooler’ my name is Paris goddammit, PARIS.

- Because she's no Angelina Jolie? So that’s why everybody hates her! because she's just Too Damn Ugly. Take a good look in the mirror people. Chances are you are NOT prettier than her. And if you are, well good for you. Now shut the fk up.

- Or perhaps because she’s a party animal and none too prim.
Oh man, here’s what happens when the moral fabric of society breaks down. Paris happens. When we are all in church singing Holy holy holy, Paris is recovering from a hangover…or still perpetuating one. We were in church weren’t we? Well, some of us right? Any of us? Anyone? I know I for one I was probably lying on my bed spent, cheeks still flushed in the aftermath, grinning with contentment and sucking on a cigarette.
So Paris, ROCK ON!

- She’s named after a Hotel.
Did you not get the memo? Woe betides she that is named after a hotel. Damned she shall be - forever cast out to fringes of society where she will be publicly ridiculed to serve as a lesson to all those who poignantly refuse to uphold the virtues of this great land we live in– those who fail to abide by the 1st Commandment: THOU SHALL NOT NAMETH THINE OFFSPRING AFTER THOU’S HOTEL lest you get cast into outer space and left there to wither and die.

Frankly I couldn’t care less if she was infact blasted into outer space. Paris means absolutely diddlysquat to me. But I can’t help but be fascinated by the outright global disdain for Miss Hilton. A young woman with lots of money lots of time lots of attention and lots of sex = lots of resentment I suppose.

Anyway, for argument sake and for my personal edification: why do YOU hate Paris?

I think I hate her because I could do so much better with her money. I would have had better plastic surgery to make me hotter, spent more money on drugs to make me more entertaining to my friends, made more homemade pornos and 'leaked' them to the press and been more famous for doing what every other twenty something is doing in every city in the world.

There's a fine line between love and hate, everyone who really hates her wants to be her a little bit.

I dislike her because she has totally wasted the gifts she was given. She was born with money AND looks, yet she is so utterly devoid of intelligence that she has no idea what to do with them. She serves no useful purpose in society, except maybe to provide jobs for paparazzi and tabloid editors (and provide easy material for blog writers such as myself). At least actors and other "celebrities" do SOMETHING that makes them rich and famous (bad reality TV shows don't count). Ms. Hilton is rich and famous just because she's rich and famous.

You compared her to Angelina Jolie. That's hardly a fair comparison. What does Ms. Jolie do in her spare time?: Adopt children, serve as the Goodwill Ambassador for the United Nations High Commission for Refugees, travel extensively to third-world countries (i.e. Pakistan after the earthquake), and the list goes on. What does Ms. Hilton do? Make bad porn videos and get engaged every three months or so.

Advantage, Ms. Jolie.

Once upon I time I actually considered Paris attractive. Then she opened her mouth and ruined it for me. She could be utterly unstoppable if she only had one ouce of brains inside that vapid skull of hers.

Kisses - Carrie

Only people who hate her are those whoe are envious about here. Bad sex videos, lack of intellect, no concern for third world nations,...So what, it's her life.
We have no right to preach or compare her with Jolie. Given an oppurtunity, everybody wants lots of money, great looks, lot of physical gratification (sex, drugs, food)..Perefctly normal behaviour for her circumstances.
What would be behaviour of all good samaritans if there were no poverty, AIDS,...They should disappear immediately, sine they have nothing else to do.
I wish Paris continues with her lifestyle and provide entertainment and thus doing her bit to making society better.
I for one had fun enjoying her homemade porn. So I refuse to hate her. :)

Disclaimer: I come from a third world nation with fair idea of all problems associated with such an environment. I know for sure Paris wasn't reason for any of these troubles. So PARIS, please continue with your lifestyle.

Paris doesn't bother me one iota. I've accepted that her sole purpose is to convert oxygen to carbon dioxide. And for the record, I don't think she's that good looking.

Carrie, I totally hear what you are saying but IMO she's just being regular and getting lots of attention for it. She's no role model but its entirely her perogative not to be. Therefore she should be ignored not despised.

Bent, I think I picked up that much in your Who Thinks Paris Is Hot? post:)

I think in a sense I identify with Paris that's why I personally don't hate her. Had i been in similar circumstances I would have probably equally pissed my life away. Much like what i'm doing now anyway. Hell, we only live once.

I have plenty of people to dislike right here, without having to extend my range to random celebrities. Until she becomes a colleague, employer or contractor, I'm not going to develop strong feelings one way or another.

i have fucking too much on my plate, to worry abt wat some rich, brainless fuck is doing with her money, let alone her pussy and all that shit!! she can get engaged everyday if it suits her, so what?? fuck her and all that money, AT this part of the world there are burning issues such as AIDS and Poverty i know we cant help every soul, but still we dont have to close our eyes to these things cos soon their going to affect everyone....even fucking ignorant Americans and the Idiot BUSH!!

postus interruptus

I’m going on vacation. It’s unreal. It’s going to be so weird to not wake up panic stricken, wondering exactly how late I’m going to be for work that morning. Tomorrow is my last day of work. I won’t be at my desk though because I need to make one last business trip to represent my company at a trade fair on the other side of the country. Then I have to fly back on Sat morning, pack and fly out to Joburg (SA) on Saturday evening. Sunday I’ll be flying to Cape Town in time to pick up my robe on Mon and graduate on Tues. Or is it Wed? Pft. Who cares. Sometime during the week. According to me I’m already a graduate. Been a graduate since I handed in my dissertation and left university in Jan. Only graduating now because they took so bloody long to examine my thesis I couldnt make the June ceremony. To me grad is just a big showdown where people feel special and accomplished, old men wear dresses, photographers hit the jackpot, parents burst with pride and graduants get wasted. Been there,...

Home sweet home

I was out of my office for a ciggie break and some air (mutually exclusive?) when this mailman who had come in to drop a parcel proceeded to lecture me on the hazards of smoking. Smoking is bad for your health??? No kidding! This is news to me. He just kept spinning that same old scratched CD about how it’s affecting my ability to procreate and who will want to marry me then… Dude. That’s rich coming from you. Pick your belly off the floor or at least buy a shirt big enough to cover it and wobble back to your undersized scooter. I will quit…one day. But let me worry about the kids I will never have. You are proud of your good health? I’m sorry to burst your bubble but those varicose veins aren’t going to get you past fifty either. Now lay off the beer, give your tiny scooter to your son and go save some other poor sod. In other news... Its been a long time coming but I'm FINALLY moving out from my Aunt's place this weekend (yay!!). I've been fixing up the apartment for the ...
