They have no actual talent for anything but become famous by some random event and then manage to keep the ball rolling with interviews for these magazines, appearances on quiz shows etc. and the whole thing seems to feed off of itself.
It's a bit like the South Seas Bubble in microcosm. The whole thing feeding on itself with no means of support until one day their individual bubble bursts and the PR company moves on to the next wannabe and stops returning their calls.
What a very dull world it would be if we all enjoyed the same reading material.
I personally cant understand anyone salviating,hypothetically, at the thought of getting their Private Eye or Tatler but thankfully I have much more important things going on in my life to concern myself with what other people do.
Its just blatant snobbery - I could do snob if necessary but my feet are firmly planted on the ground and if I want to buy Hello.OK or whatever - its my business and no-one elses.
Ah ha! Perhaps I'm not alone after all.
Funy how 'the chattering classes' miss the obvious irony of there �I�m not a snob�, you hateful patronising �Tattler� reading gits. �I� m down to earth and would never dream of condemning someone for what they read�. If only they could see (or understand) the reverse snobbery and hypocrisy of it all.
Oh well, to be in denial is human, to forgive�.devine.
Bless you, you my �Heat� magazine (Sun) reading chimpets!
Couldn't miss this one, could I?
Us people who escape the irony/hypocrisy of statements we have made perhaps enjoy light reading material to counter the hard hitting,appalling news we take on board everyday whilst digesting BBC24 or ITV News channels.
Please (thats you birthday boy) dont make sweeping statements again about people through their reading material.
I still maintain that I could be a pompous git if I wanted and slate people but I have the tenacity to stand up for what I am and dont feel the need to impress anyone.O BTW my son is doing exceptionally well at HW Uni in his Honours year - not bad on a diet of Heat (which he introduced me to).He, like me enjoys a bit of light relief.Sorry my daughter who is at college also enjoys same.Mind you we can all hold our own in spite of that.We must have more brain cells to enable us to compartmentalise "Trivia" and "Important dont forget".
BTW Jamie Oliver rocks !!!
Good for and the family Buddy. I guess your never going to concede the point that there are people out there who don't get much option but to 'consume' anything other than 'popular culture'. As I've already said (read again, you must have missed it) "Like all things unhealthy there�s no harm in it, as long as you don�t live on that and nothing else".
Surely YOU'VE made that point yourself, that its important to be aware of 'other' things?
We are going to have to beg to differ on this.
I am NOT in anyway conceding but please dont be sarcastic about my two.I shouldnt have used them as an example but that was really in response to your Jamie Oliver thread.
Beg to differ my arse as long as it points downwards I will continue to put my point across (had you lulled into a false sense of security there didnt I?.
I am not a hypocrite.Irony does not escape me but the difference between you and I is that you care what people read and I just let people get on with their lives and credit everyone with a semblance of intelligence.That is, digest enough information you are comfortable with and can articulate comfortably with, if in company.
