Fuck you “Hali-famous” folk:
Just because your “known” around the majority of Haligonia doesn’t mean shit in the rest of the universe. Get a life and stop being such egotistical, narcissistic jerks.
There’s more to life then boasting about how popular you are through how many facebook friends you have and name dropping other “Hali” famous folk you schmooze with.
Nobody cares. —Happy to be Unknown in this Nowhere town
This article appears in Aug 12-18, 2010.
than leave….we’re happy here without ya 🙂 . fuck i love this town.
I went to highschool with Ellen Page! Didn’t like her much though, she was pretty weird. An older friend, yeah, he went to highschool with Sarah McLachlin. Said she was a realy weirdo.
Being weird myself, I’m still waiting for my fame and fortune to come around.
You’re just jealous.
Boasting about being “famous” in this town is somewhat akin to bragging about being the biggest log of fecal stool floating around the harbour.
With fame comes stalkers and paparazzi. Wait, A includes B doesn’t it?
Famous people here? Where? Ha. Do you mean that wannabee rapper?
Wannabe rapper? Who are you talking about?
Whiz Grigney? Ginger-bitch bust some dope moves and her free-stylin is wack, Yo.
Hey. If the fucktards on Jersey Shore can get a show on a major network and get 20k an episode…
Nothing really shocks me anymore after some douche who’s named himself “the situation” gets 20k a work shift for drinking and having a bad haircut. Though, the orange hue of snooki and her rotund ass’d fit in well in halitown 😉
Her racks too big though…
Hey, I would love to get 20,000 per episode for doing absolutely nothing (Snooki gets 30,000). I watch the show, it’s so bad (oh so bad) it’s entertaining.
they get that BECAUSE you Rtards watch that trainwreck….
change the fucking channel over to discovery and learn something…
I swear you’re going to see those freaks on MoPo some day soon.
Hey now, I watch Discovery also.
I watched an episode for the first time last week – what a fucking mess… This is why I don’t have TV.
I don’t understand how something being so terrible can be entertaining. I can’t watch those shows, they make me fear for the planet. I mean if this is the caliber of people we have in our ranks we’re kind of screwed. And if the people who may not be like that watch the shows can be distracted by such bullshit then they are enabling. No wonder the world is in such a mess, everyone is more concerned about jerks like these than anything with meaning. Unless of course the meaning is we’re all going to hell in a handbasket.
… I have a TV, but I only watch cartoons with the wee – and that’s bad enough with all the commercials. When I try to watch a show I used to like I can’t make it through the 5 minutes of advertising every commercial break… I bow at the alter of downloading and box sets.
….purely ‘legal’ downloading of course,
no shenanigans going on… nothing to see here.
though it hurts my case, I’d gladly watch Spongebob over jersey shit any day.
If it’s good enough for a Hoff cameo, it’s good enough for me.
I mean, it was no Anaconda’s 3… but still.
that reminds me, when is the Hasselhoff roast?
it should be coming up if I haven’t already missed it….
I’m the same way maude – I have a TV, but no cable, just my trusty rabbit ears to get the news once in a while, or something good on the ceeb. Movie rentals or purely “legal” downloads only. he he.
Yeah I don’t watch TV, that’s what the internet is for.
As far a your comments on such a terrible show and the caliber of people on the show … everything is editing, it’s made purposely salacious and I like it. I don’t complain about the salaray they’re making, because yes I realize that watching is enabling. Sometimes you have to watch some crap to know what’s good.
I’m not concerned with “these jerks”. I could care less what occurs in their lives, if the show were to be pulled, who cares! Whoever is watching the show is obviously not watching for meaning. Jeez Mod I’m sorry I’m distracted by such bullshit, sorry it took me away from my Tolstoy readings
-.-
Hey BD:
No offense meant, seriously. I don’t read Tolstoy either, at least not without an academic requirement. When I get the chance to watch things for pure enjoyment I usually pick things that are fluffy and light and require little engagement on my behalf – likely because I have enough heavy stuff in my own life. If I had more time I might get sucked in things that normally wouldn’t catch my attention, but I have so little time it’s not even a possibility anyway.
Editing or not JS is a terrible show about people I wouldn’t want to know. If you like it then that’s fine – I just hope you get enough discovery in your life to offset the glare from Snooki’s orange tan.
And whether JS or The Bachelorette I have just never been interested in reality TV – whether it be Survivor, Big Brother, Celebrity Rehab or anything remotely similar. I’ve seen interventions and hoarders a few times, and they are less flashy and much less of a ‘star maker’ vehicle but even so I just don’t care enough to watch.
Give me American Justice or 30 Rock any day – and the time to watch would be nice too.
Mod I’ll be the first to say that Jersey Shore is a terrible show.
Oh man believe me, I watch enough tv to offset any kind of anything. I have no kids or house to pay for. Life is full of free time at the moment. Lol.
Unplug the TV, and get an effin library card. It’s cheaper than the power you’re paying for to have that brain-sucker runnin :p
And I think this post is about normal everyday people that are known through the city, not famous assholes, jus people who everyone seems to know through one means or another
I can’t believe someone dropped Sarah McLaughlin’s name. She move away in 88/89? I saw her last show at Pub Flamingo, oh snap.
Waitaminute, qpmzwonxeibcruv went to high school with ellen page and you have a ‘friend’ that went to high school with sarah m?
umm
thinking you are popular because you have a lot of facebook friends is kinda like saying you are popular in high school because you have fucked everything that moved…
