Terminalcoffee discussion

OK OK I skim gossip sites, they amuse me and anything that amuses me gets a pass. But I also honestly think these stories are a fantastic starting point for musing about modern society.

Anyway, Tony Romo broke up with Jessica Simpson. The night before her b-day. Now get this, she was going to have a Barbie theme party. Girl is 29 frakking years old! Did she expect a QB to show up as Ken?!?!

Hahahaha.

That's probably WHY he broke up with her, Lori. I never really cared for Barbie, much, although I liked her Malibu beach van.

Hell yeah, Jackie, the timing says it all.

Maybe Romo was pouting because Brandon Jacobs said he wasn't very good.

Jessica Simpson makes me sad. Maybe even sadder than Britney. No, not sadder than Britney. But sad.

Both Jessica and Britney have some growing up to do. They've been getting by on looks, instead of using their brains. Not good. :(

Sad thought, maybe they are using their brains.

I'm sorry, but I just want to smack Jessica Simpson. I don't find her all that attractive, and every time she speaks, I cringe. I think her desperate drive to remain relevant in some way shape or form smacks of pathetic.

Hahahahahaha!!! Abby Normal?

Poor dears.

I think Britney fried her brain with drugs. I don't know what Jessica's excuse is. I will always associate her with idiotic Chicken of the Sea comments. Which is sad.

I did see a drag queen do a great Britney-through-the-years, transforming from little girl to vamp, complete with a section in the middle where she stood around doing a frightened little junkie pose, scratching at her arms.

I think Jessica is probably extremely dumb by nature, but I wonder how much was nurture - still having a Barbie party at 29? I'm quite sure she was raised to be a dumb blonde, her father made quite sure of that.

Britney doesn't seem too bright either.

Yeah, I saw the Barbie party thing earlier and just shook my head. I, too, never found her attractive.

I did, however, play with Barbies all the way into 9th grade. And I still color.

Within the lines, or are you a rebel?

You know I have a rebellious streak, but it DOES NOT come out on the coloring book page! That's one of the first places where I experienced the JOY of anal-retentiveness! I not only stay in the lines, I outline the lines!

Heh. I outlined too, Mindy, in the proper color of course. First outlined, then colored in. And I always thought of myself as rebellious too. My parents certainly thought I was!

Jessica and Britney can have a combo-party and serve buffalo wings.

Yep, outline w/proper color, then color in, and make sure to keep all the crayon strokes in the same direction and of uniform thickness across the space to be filled in.

Haha, one of my former therapists suggested I color mandalas. I did for a while, but it didn't really help. (B/c I can't stop thinking all the ordering/controlling thoughts about the colors and the technique.)

I will, occasionally, write to my therapist while I'm journaling, and then I bring the journal w/me next time I see her so she can respond.

Wait, a HUNDRED PAGES, dayum! Something musta gone horribly wrong? I guess it's part of the process, and I've had some crappy ones, but that one sounds pretty awful!

THis is a good one. Kanye West tells us who is the best to inherit the crown of King of Pop, now that MJ is dead.

"There's nobody who can match me in sales and in respect so it only makes sense for me to take over Michael's crown and become the new King. First there was Elvis [Presley:], then there was Michael, now in the 21st century it's Kanye's time to rule. I have nothing but respect for Michael but someone needs to pick up where he left off and there's nobody better than me to do that. I am the new King of Pop."

Well, good, I'm glad that's settled. NOW I can sleep nights, knowing the Pop kingdom is in good hands. :\

Kanye is a gay fish

Wasn't there an order of succession in place? What kind of pop kingdom were they running here???

That sounds like something you'd have to take up with the royal family, Tadpole.

Melissa insulted gay fish in message 29.

Yeah, I would be pretty ticked off if I were a gay fish (...not that there's anything wrong with that...).

I think you're right, Logan, but i've just about had it with the whole mess. I'm gonna go see if the polka kingdom needs any more vassals.

While you're talking with the polka people, Tad, see if you can resolve this tragedy:

Ninja carp are go!

What the hell happens to these people, once they reach a certain level of notoriaty they just jump on the crazy train and head to cookoo-ville, I liked Kanye's music at one time, but now I just want to beat im

Don't shoot me! I was just reiterating South Park's point that Kanye is a gay fish because he likes fish sticks.

It's about time! Michael Jackson is just today getting buried, maybe MAYBE we'll finally stop getting daily news headlines about the Jackson family?

Not to mention his father's incessant bids for attention. I'm surprised he hasn't slapped someone on camera yet.

i have a friend who owns a convenience store and he specializes in fountain cokes with "the good ice". one day after MJ died he had on his sign:

THE NEW KING OF POP


which i thought was hilarious. on the other topic i have always found JessicaS to be hot and i have to admit it has been just my luck to have thought Britney was smokin' back when i wasn't supposed to think that about her and now she is of age she is sorta skanky

Hahaha that's a great sign Kevin!

No comment on your blonde bimbo attractions...

For some reason (and I think its my FYE discount card), I've been getting Us Weekly in the mail. I can't help but enjoy it. I got an issue today and LeAnn Rimes is on the cover. She's been in a headline-grabbing romance lately, though I don't really care. Nor do I care about Jon & Kate.

I DO love the fashion police section!!! Celebrities in bad outfits...is there anything better?

No, there is not! :)

Except maybe, this website:

http://gofugyourself.celebuzz.com/

What a great link!!! I enjoyed it!!!

Heehee! Their analysis is wonderful isn't it?

The problem with gossip these days is most of the people I only know because they appear in the gossip all the time so I don't really care, unless it's titillating stuff. Like people from The Hills, Gossip Girls, all those TV crapodramas?

MELROSE PLACE: coming Sept.8. Tuesdays are a bitch once again!!!!!

Susan Sarandon and Tim Robbins split? For some reason this is shocking - out of all of Hollywood I always pictured these 2 together forever.

They both bug me...very holier-than-thou, in my opinion, and open to commenting on issues about which they know next to nothing, from what I can tell, but whatever works for them...I don't wish them ill.

I never found her hot, honestly, Misha...I have standards, you know:)

I recently posted this pic on another forum, just because I love how she is so accepting of aging gracefully. I can't think of any other Hollywood actress doing this, except maybe Meryl and Helen Mirren. Practically no make up either. Damn. So even if you don't like her, big kudos for that.

Well, good genes do help!

I never thought she was hot, but sure, she's aged well. I agree. I'm not a big plastic surgery fan. Old people with plastic surgery look creepy.

I also don't see Sandra Bullock as hot. Yes, I know that's a non-sequiter (sp?), but I had to explain this to a friend yesterday, so it's on my mind.

Ah yes, them too! I love that.

so is charro and the girl who played ellie mae clampett

Susan Sarandon is hot, but I agree with RA that I don't see it for Sandra Bullock. Jamie Lee Curtis is aging gracefully except for the probiotic commercials.

And I also am sad to hear that Susan Sarandon and Tim Robbins broke up - I liked them together.

Have you heard that Madonna wants to conceive with her baby boytoy Jesus? Already the combination of names boggles, what would they call the kid?
