Royston Posted May 8, 2006 Author Posted May 8, 2006 Lol no worries I was being half sarcastic anyway. Saying that though' date=' you can't beat him for bottom of the barrel entertainment values at a 9.30 on a monday morning .[/quote'] It seems bottom of the barrel entertainment is growing in the UK...for one good programme, there seems to be ten pointless crocks of 'goat dung.' Phi for All, all of the above when it comes to Trisha...wow, even after severely ripping the woman apart, she still makes my blood boil just at the thought of her. Perhaps if I knew that she'd stumbled across this thread...then my work would be done.

But don't really do it, because I would never advocate that sort of thing. Never. Don't do it. I really mean it. I'm serious, don't even think about it. No way. Please don't. Tell her "hi" from me if you do.

Imagine reading such a thing...I wouldn't know what to think if somebody hated me with such passion, and conviction. TBH, the rant really isn't that serious...although she makes me grind my teeth, I wouldn't wish harm on anybody. Rant over...back to science.
drochaid Posted May 9, 2006 Posted May 9, 2006 I despise celebrity. Not the people, it's easy enough to ignore them, but the thought process of celebrity itself. For those apparently useless people (Tara Palmer-Tomkinson for example) who are famous for being famous and nothing more, celebrity is giving the gullible and lazy something to fill their days .. not strictly speaking a problem in itself, anyone with half a brain and something better to do can easily ignore that type of celebrity. What about those people with real talent at music, acting, sports etc who really just want to do what they're good at and have a quiet life when they're not working? Those who are hounded by paparazzi wherever they go and unable to relax incase they inadvertantly make page 1 of The Sun and find their careers harmed by the imagination of some tabloid "journalist" whose sole interest is in making money regrdless what he has to do or how many lies he has to create to do so. Not many people who want celebrity manage to covet it for long before "the people" (which you can read as the media) get bored with them, and frankly I couldn't care less about those shallow pointless individuals. I've never personally understood the need for celebrity. I listen to music I love, but I don't feel the need to worship the musicians and read every little scrap I can about them ... I just want them to create more music! I simply believe people need to learn to seperate the product from the packaging, after all, celebrity is only a few decades old, or at least the way we view it now.

I listen to music I love, but I don't feel the need to worship the musicians and read every little scrap I can about them ... I just want them to create more music! I've been writing music since the age of 9, and I never understood artists being put on a pedestal and kids (and adults) being completely obsessed with one or a couple of acts...they write music, end of. So many acts (albeit pioneered a new sound) have had their whole persona just blown out of all proportion, to the point where everything they do, is some how a statement. All they are doing is just making good of a situation i.e enjoying themselves. Of course there are a lot of artists that exploit this media attention, and I have nothing to say to these people...you are a musician, not a demi-god.
GutZ Posted May 9, 2006 Posted May 9, 2006 well' date=' if you call this "Fun" then who am I to argue! but next you`ll be bitching about Mrs Smiths curtains down the road and how she`s put on weight and doesn`t Marges new hairdo So not match the new shoes she bought, and lets not even discuss the state of Mary`s back garden, what DOES she think she`s doing! Shock:eek: yeah, ok, carry on Zzzzz.....[/quote'] Her curtains are quite ugly though.
alice Posted May 9, 2006 Posted May 9, 2006 Paris Hilton and her sidekick. I hate them! They can't do anything right! And what's with the "That's hot." expression? She is so stupid! But I watch her show...just to see who's stupidest in an episode. Mariah Carey. It's not about her voice...it's her videos. Geez! Why does she have to be dressed that way? Almost naked! Why can't she just make a porn video? That way, she'll earn more than she does now! I don't see the point of her flaunting her big humps....and stupid face. She looks stupid. And all the other pathetic celebs out there. Pretty much 60%.
JohnB Posted May 9, 2006 Posted May 9, 2006 Sorry people, I can top them all. (Except Mrs. Smith, she should never have chosen that colour!) Recently at work we were discussing George Orwell's 1984 and of course the phrase "Big Brother is watching you" came up. A 19 year old twit asked "Did he get the idea from the TV show? That's so cool." We shot him. Seriously, how brain dead do you have to be to spend an evening sitting in your loungeroom watching other people sitting in their loungeroom in the vain hope that they'll say something interesting? Then these microcephalic morons actually pay the TV company to vote for who they would like to stay or go. Speaking of voting, the whole "Australian Idol" thing took a complete nosedive when it was released that the company responsible made $10 million from the voting lines. With a great cry of "Bugger that for a joke" the concept wimpered and died. Miracles do happen. There are ten thousand things more interesting than these shows. Classifying your belly button lint by colour, texture and taste would be more rewarding.
Phi for All Posted May 9, 2006 Posted May 9, 2006 Great minds discuss ideas; average minds discuss events; small minds discuss people. -Eleanor "YT" Roosevelt Mariah Carey. It's not about her voice...it's her videos. Geez! Why does she have to be dressed that way? Almost naked! Why can't she just make a porn video?I SOOO agree, it's disgusting, flagrantly terrible really. Were you just saying this or do you think there's a chance...?
Royston Posted May 9, 2006 Author Posted May 9, 2006 There are ten thousand things more interesting than these shows.

I overheard the countdown to the next Big Brother yestarday...ten days apparently, I really can't contain myself...no really (sarcasm.) I've managed to avoid watching any of this atrocity since it started...despite the odd glimpse while skipping through channels. Thankfully I hear it's losing popularity...finally the masses are starting to wake up, more David Attenborough !
YT2095 Posted May 9, 2006 Posted May 9, 2006 Look, I`m about sick of this thread already. the answer is THIS: we (Mankind) have discovered that there are MANY MANY frequencies we may occupy in the radio band (so just live with it!). We (Mankind) have nothing of any significance with which to FILL these MANY MANY radio bands with. again, Just live with it! according to the Drake Equasion, there is a More than probable chance that Aliens exist (some of which Might not be "Friendly") once again; Just live with it! and so, can you think of any BETTER WAY to deter these green bug eyed sons of Biatchs from landing here than show then the Best Side of Humanity via radio signals? it`s ALL part of our Defence network (something I can`t tell you about else I`de have to kill you!). I finish with... LIVE WITH IT!

I agree, practically everything that's been moaned about can be ignored and makes the people that don't watch tripe on tele, or read trashy magazines more admirable, because they are concerned with things that actually matter. But if really bothers you that much, that we're banging on like a load of old grannies, then it's probably best this thread is locked
YT2095 Posted May 9, 2006 Posted May 9, 2006 well well well, at last the little mollusc sees sense and aproaches some Truth. this thread`s now Locked oh yeah, and I wasn`t Kidding about the Aliens!
