Pretty Gritty

For all we strive towards the ideal of equality in this world that we live and work in, it is a generally accepted fact that people who look pretty in certain situations can have easier lives. The amount of times we’ve all seen women get out of trouble by using their looks against the man who has the power is countless, perhaps some of you reading this have even been that woman. So is it true that beautiful people have easier lives? Does this comedy workshop that is life treat the pretty better than the gritty?
Well I think that to a point it does. I generally care about my appearance anyway. I like looking good, and I make an effort to do so. I moisturise, use face peels and think about what I wear before I go out. People do treat me well, and my world is a very happy one. Enough so that I have considered taking it a step further. I did a cosmetic surgery london internet search the other day to look into having surgery done, and looked through the treatments. Whilst they did all really appeal to me, Read the rest of this entry »

So why is there all this haggling over the postal strike?  Is there any point?  Unless the government steps in and finds a way to stop the strike, we’re going to have to at least pay up some form of increase – despite it being more than most other employees on an average salary being offered.   All this nonsense is just allowing the post office workers to have time off, mail to be disrupted and at the end of the day, they’ll get some financial reward for interrupting our lives by holding our mail hostage – and who’ll have to pay for it?  Why the same people who have been punished by the strikers, the general public who buy stamps because you can guarantee that this is where the additional funds will come from.  Despite the ridiculous prices now being quoted for overseas mail, and the slowly but ever increasing postage rates for UK mail, this current strike is going to involve more increases in prices for the products and services the Post Office delivers. 

Perhaps it’s time that the Post Office monopoly was seriously looked at so that there’s an alternative the public can use – and then we the people get to say whether or not we think they’re worth more money than they’re currently being paid, because if we don’t, we’ll use the alternative provider!

For some reason miss Pinkett Smith is decalring that K Holmes wears the pants in the household and that T Cruise takes a backseat in the relationship. She says:

"It burns my soul - I see her in the house with Tom; he doesn't have that on her! It kills me. 'Tom's this crazy monster and he's got her caged up in the celler and he's forcing Sciencology on her. She's not this little wimp they make her out to be. Calm down everyone. Tom does next to nothing in the way of house work! It is Katie's domain. She's the boss!  Tom is devoted to his wife, and the lenghts he'll go to make her happy - including  spiritually, where tom will go as a husband for his wife."

I for one don't believe her she should've stuck to something more real, like that Katie doesn't get fed out a dog bowl. Suggesting she wears the trousers? She might as well have told us that Katie Holmes is actually a Power Ranger and spends her free time  riding around in giant robots.

In her interview with Nylon magazine, Lindsay Lohan claims she's more famous than Madonna and gets more attention than her from the paparazzi. She says:

"I said the other day, 'I feel like they hound me more than they hound Madonna and she's someone I've always aspired to be like.'"

She also adds that the paparazzi are what's preventing her from getting an Academy Award because they keep distracting her from her work. She says:

"The thing about the press and why they need to leave me the [bleep] alone for a little bit is because I don't want that distraction from my work. I want to get a nomination. I want to win an Oscar. I want to be known for more than, like, going out. For being 'the party girl.' I hate that. I bust my [bleep] when I'm filming, and when I gave time off, yeah, I like to go out and dance."

Lindsay Lohan could never get an ‘Academy award’! It’s just common sense that if you see Lindsay, next to a donkey that’s just sitting there, the Academy Award goes unanimously to the donkey!
