What A Complete Waste Of Energy
This article makes me sick. <--Click It! Can you believe the insanity? If you want to save 5 minutes of your life - I'll recap the article. Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have made an exclusive rights deal for between $5-$7 million dollars for pictures of their baby. They will give the money to charity. The fact that the stupid pictures are worth that much on the open market is the first obnoxious item. Getty Images is taking the pictures. One magazine has North American rights or something so stupid I refuse to even go back and read it again. While all of that is truly disturbing by itself - it gets even worse. Two websites somehow got ahold of the pictures and had them online yesterday. The quotes about the piracy from the magazine executive who had exclusive rights are hilarious! Her word selection attaches the same importance to this as 9/11 or worse. She goes on to condemn the internet for allowing things like this to spread unchecked. What? Are you telling me that this woman's life is so unimportant that all she can do is sit around and think about this? There are wars going on, genocide being committed, diseases that have no cures, corrupt politicians, hungry children, neglected children......and entire companies have their collective panties in a bunch because of this? So, when questioned as to why she is upset today, this woman can convey these facts: one idiot superstar divorced another idiot superstar so he could get with yet another idiot superstar. The two idiot superstars had a baby. (OH....MY....GAWD!). We paid roughly $6 million dollars for the pictures of baby Jesus...I mean Pitt. We paid that much so nobody else could take pictures of baby Jesus..I mean Pitt (darn!). Then, somebody on the inside sold those pictures to 2 websites (yes TWO!) out of about 2 billion. WAAAAAAH! I mean REALLY? Who gives a shit? When baby Jesus leaves the hut in Africa it was born in....if it sees it's shadow, does that mean summer will be longer this year?

Apparently lots of people give a shit. Maybe not you or me or others who visit here. But plenty of asshole Americans give a shit about celebrity babies.
That's why Terrorists can blow up our buildings. That's why we pay over $3 for a gallon of gas. Cause Americans, being among the dumbest humans on the planet, pay more attention to this kind of stupid shit and absolutely NONE to all the things you mentioned. I am sad to be an American. We are such idiots. The world laughs at us and our greed. And someday we will have to pay the piper. I just hope I'm not alive to see it.
