What the Girl Scouts did to me
Last year I bought a subscription to US Weekly from the Girl Scouts. Well, not directly from a real girl scout, but a girl scout's mom who happens to be a receptionist in one of the offices I frequent. I have to say that when it ceased to show up every week I missed it a little. Now I satisfy my need to read useless prose on numerous celebrity gossip blogs. However, one thing that I do not miss at all is the section called "Stars, They're just like US" where they have pictures of famous douche bags buying broccoli with stupid captions like "Even Paris Hilton needs a little green in her diet." Of course she does! Is this supposed to be breaking news to the American public that even celebrities may have the same nutritional requirements as us "common folk?" What about how easy it is to shock the public? For example, when Madonna and Britney Spears (and Christina, too, but no one really cared) made out at the Video Music Awards. The ENTIRE world stopped to process this display. Did people think that while they were performing they discovered their undying lust for each other and couldn't hold off any longer? STOP FALLING FOR THIS NONSENSE. It was PLANNED folks. It's just too easy. But I can't talk... I almost kicked someone's ass in a Duane Reade last week over a magazine with the scoop on the latest celebrity cellulite sighting.
