First of all, sorry about the title, i bet you were so shocked to read it you knocked over a cup of coffee on your keyboard, i can't be held liable. The reason for this title is purely sarcastic. Let me explain.

One of the first things i do each morning is surf to this site, read my mail, start my messenger....and then read the news in my RSS reader. Although i prefer the old fashioned newspaper you can hold, an have dogs pee on, a subscription on one is really expensive. So i get my news of the world electronically, with an RSS reader.

On the top of my list is a, what i thought to be, a serious news feed. Followed by formula one news, some other news feeds, outpostnine feed, cockeyed.com feed etc. etc. So i select the serious news feed, and this headline hits me: Marriage Paris Hilton canceled. So ofcourse i called the national gaurd, took off all my clothes, poured chocolate milk all over my body and ran around outside screaming to people about the inevitable end of the world.... NOT!!!

I can not begin to explain the incredible indifference i feel towards Paris Hilton's lovelife. And don't get me wrong, this is not a rant about Ms. Hilton in particular, it's about non-news seeping through serious news media. If i want to read about the troubles that hit celebrity's i'll go out and buy some tabloid or a gossip magazine. If i subscribe to a serious news feed i want to read about the important stuff that's happening in the world, like the war in Iraqistan or about the forest fires in Portugal that seem to be uncontrollable.

Why do the writers of the news feed, and other news media, automatically assume i have a sucky life myself and i have to leech of the misery that happens to celebritys to make myself feel better? What's so special about celebrity's anyway? sure some of them have a special gift that i don't have, like a good singing voice or the ability to act. But i have the special gift of learning how to use electronical equipment, like computer's or VCR's faster than most people. Hell, i get rid of that annoying blinking 12:00 faster then you can say: manual. But you don't see an article devoted to me everytime i fart in public!

*pant*

While i was ranting, Lady Irony decided to make a news headline pop-up in the lower right corner of my screen, stating that Courtney Love says she's pregnant... Ok! time to get the chocolate milk! :(

TV, pop culture, and celebrities are stupid. I hate all of it. Why should I care about these people's lives? There are only a few shows I watch & those get recorded so I can skip the commercials.

& yes, I have spent my night

1) Learning Korean
2) Surfing net
3) playing Jade Empire

So far I think the only thing pop culture, TV, and celebrities have helped anyone do is just getting some geeks laid. For instance, learn what the general Goth scene is like, go to a club play the evening by ear and you might walk out with some wierd/psychotic chick that's willing to fuck your brains out. From there make sure you guys definitely do not go to your home...very, very fucking bad idea.

As for Paris Hilton...well it's been proven before that she's a damned dumbass.

Lets see what else...oh yeah, the news can be really depressing, like hearing that Paris Hilton is alive really has ruined my day a little, it's reminded me as to why people seriously need to find better role models and do better things with their lives (not that actors/actresses aren't needed, but lets get some that are retarded when they speak off camera; as for on camera the only things I've heard that retarded winch say were on her godawful sex tape which if anything is too damned hilarious to really be a sex tape...more a spoof of a sex tape).

non-news seeping through serious news media.
Very, very, very irritating. This is why I don't read printed news; there's too much junk to sift through. An example? WEIGHTLOSS. GOD. In any case, online media is more effective in the respect that you can find a good site/rss feed that won't kill your budget. But every once in a while, cases like that pop up (Hilton, who I think is made of plastic).

She's so fucking vain her fiances name is also Paris. I think that one episode South Park was the best portrayal of her, ever. I'm sick of hearing about her. Why anyone gives a flying fuck is beyond me. She's a spoiled rich piece of shit and, sorry to say, but I wouldn't be upset at all if someone happened to mix bleach into her Evian.

Depending on who you are, this will mean more or less based on your views of Paris Hilton, haha. I've dated many women much hotter than Paris Hilton, but then I do not find her attractive, at all, and I agree with the lack of concern for celebrity news hype.

EVERY SINGLE PERSON I've ever even hit on in my life has been more attractive than Paris Hilton.

Hehe, hence my point. :)

Note I said PERSON. A lot of those girls haven't been girls at all, but dogs (don't blame me, I was totally blotto). And they're still better looking than Ms Hilton.

Actually, I don't think he would. He may be a flirt, but he has standards.

Sorry to say that I saw this coming. Poor Paris, everyone's picking on her. Muahahahaha! And now I will join in the fun! I'm with Annie on this. I can't stand rich, spoiled girls (or boys for that matter). Not to mention the fact that she gives blondes a bad name.
I am so much hotter than her! :p That's pretty sad, when I can say I'm hotter than someone! Hell, I bet half the people on this forum are hotter than her! ;)
As for all the crap in the media, I don't even read half of it anymore. I don't give a rats ass about most celebrities lives, other than the occasional "oh, that's nice, so and so had a baby", or "oh that's too bad, that person died."

Praise the sanctity of marriage. Or not. I don't know anymore. I just hate celebrity gossip and PMS. Probably why I'll never get married. Moreso the PMS than anything else.

I hate it when people get obsessed with celebrities. I think I'm one of the only people who really doesn't give a rat's ass about who is in a movie. I'm not going to go pay to watch a rich, spoiled person who's intelligence valiantly competes with a rock, but fails. Even if a movie is crappy, they get payed more money than most hard working people make in a life time. Then they act like they are so great by giving $1,000 to charity. I hate to quote a bump from Adult Swim, but it holds true: People with low intelligence talk about people, people with medium intelligence talk about events, and people with high intellgence talk about ideas, which is what seems to be talked about most often on these boards.

I don't really care much about the news media as most of their stories are fiction based on a very small ammount of truth. Not worth my time. Hopefully dumbass celerbrities like Paris Hilton will drop dead so we can stop hearing about them.

Bwa ha ha. I didn't know she was getting married. The last thing I remember about her is the amazing comercial she made for some burger joint. I forget. She was washing a car while eating a burger.

But y'know some people love to follow celebrity lives. They love the "drama", so to speak. I've followed SOME people's lives due to the hilarity, but that's about it. That and it's hard for me not to get updated since I watch Jay Leno occasionally.

I'd rather live my own life rather than worry about someone else's.

Man, you just want a sugar mama. That's not love. Don't ruin the name of marriage more than it already has been. :D

I wouldn't touch either of them. They both seem to ditzy for me, and that alone would turn me off forever.
