I don't feel sorry for that woman
[Read the article: Hit her, baby, one more time]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]I wasn't old enough to recall, but was there all this boo hooing for the two Coreys, when they shoved their careers down the toilet for blow? If yes, then it's not a girl thing it's that some people have empathy and want to blame everything on bad parenting.
If not, if people just left the Corey's alone called them dumb for doing what they did to themselves and moving on, well then Traister probably has some point about how we love to laugh and point at beautiful women who aren't so pretty anymore or exhibit moments of dumbassery.
But I'm not really sure if it's just a woman thing. I think it's really about how you promote yourself. Paris, Britney and Lindsey happen to be pretty and wealthy and lucky. They play off their sexuality, partying ways all the time. And yes, why wouldn't people who work their asses off all day, who are just as attractive but didn't get some lucky break or a parent who drove them to acting/singing to hope for riches later, not be slightly resentful to basically just see marginally talented, decent looking women, making lots of money for the ability to lip synch, dance in biknins or show up at the best parties or play pretend in pretty shitty movies? Americans can be or used to be a hardworking lot, of course they resent people who make millions of dollars with hardly any work or talent behind it.
She is 25, she has 2 children. The free passes are over, she is a spoiled brat. She treats people like shit but we're supposed to say, oh poor Britney, the media is so mean to women? Hold up my flight cause your seats aren't leather? Screw her. She knows the tabloids exist, she knows what they are saying and if K. Fed can smarten up, fly right to all outside appearances so can she.
She calls people fat, I bet she was just as snarkily evil about other people when she was at her pinnacle, welcome to karma bitch.

Huh?
[Read the article: Hit her, baby, one more time]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]"What makes me feel creepy and sad is the fact that this country sat back and watched the raising of brittney and linday lohan, and now tut tuts at what they have rather naturally become. I feel responsible."
I think that is absolute crap. Britney and Lindsey have not been the only people churned out of the Disney machine or had not the best parents, they weren't raping, drugging them or abusing them so who exactly was going to step in and correct their parental missteps? Also who had the magic crytal ball that said Britney would crash and burn and Lindsey would end up doing lines? They are screwing up as adults, not little kids. Should all movies, TV shows and pop careers be limited to those 18 and up, the kids can be CGI'd in! Why isn't Christina making a mockery of her life, why isn't she crashing cars and getting drunk all the time? Isn't she due for rehab by now? Why isn't Justin Timberlake?
Let's look at the Corey's again.
Feldman now has a wife, a home and is an animal activist. Haim, pretty much has nothing. No girl, no home, no manners and is desperately clinging onto his past fame. Different people make different choices and I will not take the blame becuase I watched Lost Boys or danced to I'm a Slave 4 You in a club.

I'll chime in
[Read the article: Caught dirty-handed]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Okay, here goes, ladies, many of you are paranoid freaks and then you make the bathroom a disgusting place because you are paranoid freaks. You cannot catch anything from a toilet seat! If you must squat because you are terrified of cooties touching your thighs and buttocks, then for the love of all that is holy at least turn around and wipe your own piss off the seat! This is what the sinks and soap are for! So if you do touch pee, you can, guess what, wash your damn hands!
My husband does tell me that at sports staduims for some reason if there is a line, then men just start pissing on the floor, I personally don't get that, can't you guys hold it for the 1 or 2 minutes it takes some other guy to pee? Urinal, wall hey what's the dif!
Are there really that many people who are so low class, so disgusting that you figure spreading your urine around is no big deal?
As for the washing your hands deal, since many of us aren't going to go find a sink every time we sneeze or cough, or after we've scratched our face, at least going the bathroom is a good time to wash up, the sink is right there dammit! So don't give me any of that well I didn't touch my penis or I only touched the toilet paper. Wash your fucking hands freaks!

If fashion is going to be a piece
[Read the article: If Crocs could kill]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Could it at least be about perhaps the states Georgia and Louisianna wanting to lock up, fine or at least arrest people for wearing low riding pants? Is it a racist thing against young black men or will they be rounding up the teeny bopper white girls with their low rise jeans and thongs poking out the back?
Could you imagine your child getting a 500 dollar fine for a fashion decision. No, instead we hear about the ugliest shoe to hit the market in a long time. Why the fuck do I care about Crocs? Why is this a woman's issue? I've seen men sporting those ugly ass shoes too.
Bring back the Fix or start a wacky but useless news column, but this is just pathetic.
