She Said It


“I can’t say my 30s were the easiest time. And I had thought my 20s were hard! … You know, that’s the worst mistake a woman can make, to think, Oh, I’m 32 and I’ve had two kids and I’ve worked since I was 16 and now it’s going to get easier. Because as soon as you think that, you’re doomed!
You’re absolutely doomed!”
~ Uma Thurman when asked by W Magazine

Courtney Love talks trash about Edward Norton & Britney Spears

You know what just occurred to me? We don’t show enough love to Courtney Love’s insane rants. She’s even more crazy and cracked out than Lindsay Lohan, and she will literally say and write anything. Well, apparently Courtney left Twitter a while back, but she’s still posting on her Facebook page.

First up, Courtney goes off on Edward Norton, of all people. You see, Courtney and Edward used to be friends, back when they worked together in The People versus Larry Flint. Edward also became friends with some family members of Courtney’s late husband, Kurt Cobain. Now… Movieline suggests that Courtney is claiming Edward Norton mishandled the finances of Kim Cobain (Kurt’s sister).

IF something happens to me, NO my will is NOT at Greenberg Glusker, that will is FORGERY…i created a new one per lISA FERGUSONs attorney who cannot be FOUND but that needs altering as it has Edward in it and Norton doesn’t have a CLUE how evil his own BM is he wont f-ck a future Senator/Film Actor but hell purposfully refinance Kim Cobains Property i bought her cash outright, for the 12th time using a phony address due to some f-ck up on some Bogus “ART FORM OF THE CH 13” R TODD used, leavng KIM COBAINS PROPERTY REPOS…SESED< “you have an hour to get your things” wtf did Kim Cobain do to YOU… so its best to never tell let alone kiss and trell i m shcoked at myself i never kiss and tell unless im really mad at an ex for like LOSING 300,000$ of my kid hes supposed to be paternal abouts money, oh yeah Norton just LOST 300k

Next up - Britney Spears. Courtney claims Britney’s father molested her and now enslaves her. But then Courtney brings it back around to herself, of course. She says she relates to Britney in that way, because Britney didn’t “pull that card” (the molestation card, I imagine). This is all my interpretation, honestly. This could be her grocery list, for all I know:

britneys dad molested her , imagine the father that molested you owning you for slavery while your forced to sing songs picked for thier sexual content every night, insane right? i have it on First had authority, and fight as hard as she is and does she still didnt pull that card, its a pride thing i can relate to, However they want to play dirty, lets go, Im SO not affraid of the little trolls who hit this when i was f-cked up who are called lawyers. lets GO.

Just reading a few lines of Courtney’s rants makes me feel like I’ve spent the whole day strung out on something hard, and I’m coming down on wine in a box. Granted, Courtney is probably downing box wine too - it’s her chaser after shooting heroin into her lady parts. Gah! What else is there to say? Do I have to defend Britney from this stuff? I don’t think Britney’s dad molested her. I think he uses her for money, but I don’t think he was ever physically abusive or anything. There. Courtney got me to defend Britney. Is that what she wanted?

Donald Trump Gets Into MLM

Donald Trump is most well known for being rich and having a less than successful personal life.  He’s made his millions (or is it billions?) by slapping his name on luxury real estate all over the world.

Now he’s putting that same name on a multilevel marketing nutritional company.

Yes, really.

Trump has joined forces with Ideal Health, a 12-year-old nutritional products company, and renamed the company “The Trump Network.” The company uses a multilevel marketing model to move its products and will continue to do so under the new name.

MLM companies use a network of distributors to sell their products. Marketers receive commissions for the products they sell, along with a cut from products sold by other salespeople they’ve recruited. Critics believe most of the products are bought by distributors themselves, and that few of the salespeople actually make money.

Regardless, Trump is calling his new business venture a “rescue and recovery program” for people struggling in the economic crisis. He attended a launch party in Miami recently where 5,000 people packed in to hear Donald Trump himself speak.

I’m trying to imagine Donald Trump inviting his celebrity friends over for coffee and then pulling out a white board to explain “a fantastic opportunity” to them.  Do you think he’s signed his kids up yet?

British Sunday Times Writer Who Thinks New York City Pretty Much Sucks: A Formal Response

Oh, hello there, Stephanie Marsh of the Sunday Times. When you write an essay called "New York has lost its edge," and you live here, it's okay. When you're writing from London...

The question presents itself: What the shit do you think you're talking about, lady?

Her two big examples are the John Varvatos store at CBGBs, and the Whole Foods on the Bowery (which is the articles kicker). Great. She mentioned two places within three blocks from one another. Yeah, it sucks that CBGBs is dead, but that place sucked when it was dying and hey, at least Varvatos kept some of the original walls. It could be another Chase Bank, but, whatever.

Here's her thesis:

The problem for those who would like to see a return in New York to its edgy past is that Manhattan, as more than one New York-based blogger has claimed, is still "a gated community for the rich". The cultural critic Julian Brash has complained that under Bloomberg the citizens of New York have been turned into consumers - it is a place where everything is about what can be bought and what can be sold.

Okay, fine. Manhattan's really expensive, blah blah blah. Bankers run everything, blah blah blah. Everything in New York can be bought. And? This city was built by hyper-capitalists, it's why there's so much goddamn money here. Old hat. Certain things about New York absolutely suck and will always keep sucking worse and worse. And let's get one thing straight: people have been saying things about New York sucking for as long as New York's been around. If you read Monocle magazine, which this essay is basically ripped out of, this is like, every issue. This has long been the party line of travel press types—especially ones from abroad—for at least three years. I mean, if you really want to go back, I believe Rolling Stone called New York the Hot Dead Zone in their inaugural Hot List issue. In 1998. Saying New York is no longer edgy hasn't been edgy in forever.

The sequel to this piece is when she inevitably says that Berlin is starting to get really, really hip these days too. Pretty much anybody who went through Ellis Island and didn't stay probably had some sentiment along the lines of "this place sucks." According to the Daily News, one of our presidents basically told us to stick this city up our collective asses (look where he is, now: dead).

But—and I'm sure others have their reasons—I live here because, quite frankly (A) there's still nowhere else in America like it, and like many other people here, I have some sick/awesome compulsion that makes this grind of living here that much more attractive to me than anywhere else and (B) it's still got better stuff than everywhere else in America. Yeah, fuckin' stuff. Awesome stuff.

Now.

Can we quickly go over the reasons London—a nice city, sure—sucks compared to New York? Great:

  • Your food sucks. It all tastes like ass until American chefs take two months to do better what you've spent hundreds of years sucking at.
  • The service in your restaurants sucks, because you have to instruct people how to tip by putting a mandatory charge on their tab, like many other countries that do this. Which is the wrong way of doing this, which is why every server you will every have in London will probably be an asshole.
  • Your theater sucks. War Horse—no, really, War Horse—is the best thing you have up right now. Anything good you have on the West End came from us. And don't bring up fucking Billy Elliot.
  • Your nightlife is just stupid. Pubs close at 11, our bars don't close until four. Who goes to bed at 11? Are you serious? So you guys open up clubs that close at 2AM that have two kinds of people in them: the kind who get unceremoniously drunk and piss on everything, or the places Prince Harry goes. And who wants to go there? Also, you only play American music. You think Kings of Leon are the Second Coming of Christ. The Kings of Leon play our bar mitzvahs, goddamnit. By the way: most of those rappers you guys play on repeat (and not even the good ones...50 Cent?!) still live in New York. Our clubs and nightlife might have their issues, but they blow yours out of the water. You guys wouldn't know what to do with The Beatrice Inn if it crawled up your nose in a $100 bill.
  • Nobody knows where anything is in London. Seriously. It's like the worst parts of the West Village for an entire city. Everything is higgly-piggly or whatever dumb word you have for it. We live on a grid. A grid. You guys have the dumbest civic planning this side of kids eating Legos.
  • OH. Don't get me wrong. Our subways suck, for sure. But at least they're supposed to work after midnight, and don't cost half our income to ride. Also, an Oystercard? That just sounds stupid. Who's running your design schemes, Lewis Carroll? Stupid. Oh, and, you wanna talk about EDGY? How about our D-Trains getting stabby again, edgy? Exactly.
  • You guys have never had a nice day of weather in the history of the universe. Seriously. The only person Madonna has to compete with for causing a scene is the fucking sun. It's yellow, it's in the sky, sometimes, it...nevermind. Have you even been here in September? It's like Central Park is trying to get in your pants and get you off, the weather's so goddamned nice.
  • Oh, and the pound is stupid-expensive. Like everything else in your city.
  • Your tabloid newspapers make the New York Post look like The Paris Review.
  • And Whole Foods on the Bowery, sure, Whole Foods sucks. But it's in a pretty great location, and, fuck that, you know what sucks worse? Sainsbury's. Sainsbury's suuuuuuuucks. Which goes back to your food sucking.
  • Do you have Brooklyn? Do you even know what a Brooklyn is? No, not David Beckham's son. You're stupid, shut up. [Quiet Moment: The article didn't mention Brooklyn once, but didn't refer to Manhattan exclusively. Go figure.]
  • London's celebrities are all on Big Brother and fucking suck. They're mouthbreathing idiots. They make Tinsley Mortimer look like Jackie Kennedy.
  • You guys have soccer—yeah, I called it soccer, goddamnit—teams. Multiple ones. Great. We have two baseball teams (including the 2009 World Series Champions), football teams (Including the 2008 Super Bowl Champions), hockey teams (I'm sure they Won Something Great recently), and a basketball team. All of them except for the Knicks could smash every London soccer player. Nothing else, just "smash" them.
  • There is one—and only one—good song about Foggy London Town. There are as many songs about New York as there are New Yorkers, and most of them are awesome.

Anything else? Oh, yeah, did Samuel Motherfucking Jackson just buy an apartment next to your boss? No? Exactly.

Shut up. New York is awesome.
