Why I don't date celebrities

Posted by airheadgenius

 

I spent a good deal of time in the airport a couple days ago and consequently wandered past a bunch of magazine covers. I don't watch TV and am not much interested in celebrity, so various bits of media gossip had passed me by.

Apparently we are feeling sorry for poor Jen this week.

Poor poor Jennifer Aniston dumped again. Boo hoo hoo.

Yeah, it must really suck having sex repeatedly with Brad Pitt and Vince Vaughn and the other couple of pretty boys whose names escape me. That must've been a real chore. And it must be really stressful to have all that money too. No wonder we're all feeling so bad for her.

One magazine claimed she's just desperate to start a family. But if that were true, why would she pick a nob-end like John Mayer to get involved with? (Disclaimer--he may not be a nob end. I just needed an excuse to use the expression) Surely she could take a leaf out of her rivals book and go pick up a child from a third world country. If it's good enough for Angelina and Madonna, it ought to be good enough for her.

Who said she's desperate to get married and have children anyway? Is she just "supposed" to do that because that's what chicks do? Especially chicks of a certain age. Maybe she has no desire to get married and have children at all. But maybe she's very aware of her audience of boys in cardigans and girls with flicked hair and she knows that they would ditch her if she announced that actually she's a total slapper and would like nothing better than to be gangbanged by as many celebs as possible. (My apologies--I got somewhat carried away with the "Jennifer Aniston is a slut" premise)

And why does no one ever mention that she has one eye substantially larger than the other? The tabloids are so mean usually. That is the biggest mystery of all. Although maybe if she admitted that her true passion was getting laid by A list actors rather than having a family, she'd lose her good girl image and the media would tease her about her squiffy eye. Yeah, that's it.

See that is why I don't date A listers. I already have a family, so don't have the procreation excuse. The press would destroy me.

My guess is that Jennifer is really a slapper.  It's pretty easy to start a family, but it's a lot easier to carry on.

I certainly agree that if she was actually "desparate" to have a family the difficulties are purely in her head.  If she feels that she needs a man in the picture, ( and D lister Gail O'Grady, for example, just proceeded without ) she would have an effectively unlimited selection of candidates for the role no matter if she wanted it played as mack, or Suitcase Pimp, or Casper Milquetoast, or whatever.

Well, sort of the Queen, but more like Helen Mirren. An article in The Guardian a few days back explained why she gave up snorting coke. She was quoted as saying: "And I read that in the paper, and all the cards fell into place and I saw how my little

I am a fish out of water - an opinionated cheeky smiling English chick in a land of larger than life Americans. I don't understand the culture. I don't understand asking if we're exclusive. I don't understand this weird practice of decapitating penises. Some days I am definitely MILF material. Other days I feel more like the material on the inside of yer grannys' handbag.

I'm a smart ass writer who'll argue your ear off, hold your hand close, and tell you the truth whenever. I'm a fool and a hero, a confessional soul, and lover of life in every conceivably absurd way that it can come. I also paint my toenails.
