Paris Hilton gives me motion sickness. There is something horrible wrong with her entire physiology, like looking at a corner where one wall is askew by just a few barely noticeable degrees. I used to work in a bookstore when her “book” came out. I had to stock those with my glasses off just to keep from getting dizzy.
nudity seams to be a recurring theme in society. I mean, the internet, digital cameras, photography in general, cinema, the printing press and many other things progressed technologically relativity rapidly due to the porn industry. perhaps to get politics to work and speed up we need naked politicians. Then again, as was pointed out in Austin Powers, Margaret Thatcher would have been a bit unpalatable and do you dare to imagine Bush in a state of derobement? Oh well just a thought…. (all be it a rather bad one)
Read your books last night and thoroughly enjoyed them… I look forward to more, and maybe getting to meet you in person some where down the line… I plan on going to MoCCA next year. Keep up the great work… hope you are well.
it is indeed a cowboy spur lamp. It’s the ugliest/greatest lamp I’ve ever owned, bought for $1 at the ugliest/greatest garage sale ever.
greg- If you had to stock Paris Hilton’s book with your glasses off, did you have to gouge out your eyes when stocking Nicole Richie’s book?
Jewett- thanks and I’d be pleased to meet too. I’ll be the old, fat dude with some ham stuck in his beard, having a real fart party. God bless the internet, where else could I pretend to be a 24 y/o girl?
yeah, i’ve only ever been able to watch that show in small doses.
as for the organizing thing… i think people have given up on ever making a difference in the war. as long as w. is in power, we will be overseas. i think people just wanna get naked.
It’s already started. Appropriately enough, in Holland.
@ comic:
I believe I have the great fortune of not remembering which show “The Simple Life” was until I read the comments. Because I now remember that it *isn’t* along the lines of “My Name is Earl,” I hate all the commenters who reminded me.
I have to ask what your motivations were. My first reaction was “Why would anyone with any intelligence whatsoever even try to watch that show.†Then I calmed down and thought, “well maybe she just likes being the rubbernecker at the cultural train wreckâ€. But with the state of television today why rent something for that? You can turn on the TV any night of the week and find some kind of awful reality television program to satisfy that urge. Wasn’t there a presidential debate this weekend? I really have to ask you Julia, as one stranger to another: Just what did you hope to get out of The Simple Life?
Since this is my first time posting I’m required by convention to say what is clear from the fact that I’m posting at all: I think your comic is rad - keep it up.
hey, I think its good to be watching americas greatest role model in her formulative role. Will you be signing up for the covert prison coverage? We have something similar over here (Big Brother) - though with more vacuous inmates.
Not to be a bitch, but you can’t tell me you actually were surprised that Paris and Nicole suck. I think you should have seen that coming from a mile away. Your “horrible mistake” was so easily avoidable, I have no sympathy.
the main problem is that I dont have a TV and I haven’t had one in years, so I’d never seen Paris Hilton or Nicole Richie beyond tabloid photos. I knew damn well it was going to be stupid, but when you have Netflix, you can afford to make these mistakes. I was curious, okay? plus I like tons of shitty stuff. and you know what else? fuck you guys.
really? well, i’m glad paris hilton isn’t even anywhere near a mental list of things that make my life better. in fact I regret even posting this because just talking about her is a waste of words and air.
The mere fact that you turned it off for AD makes it perfectly fine that you were watching it in the first place, IMO.
Who among us hasn’t watched something they were horribly ashamed of?
I realize I’ve been commenting on super-old entries as though they were current, but someone’s gotta do it.

June 5th, 2007 at 4:11 am
That’s hot…
(Why does Paris have such a weird deep voice?)
June 5th, 2007 at 8:57 am
This probably wasn’t intentional, but I like that the wood panel nearest your beer says “No” on it.
June 5th, 2007 at 10:34 am
I would be aghast if my bike wanted to put metal in the microwave, too.
Or talked, for that matter.
June 5th, 2007 at 1:15 pm

Luckily AD gets better each time you watch it, with all the self references and whatnot.
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:16 pm
Does anyone else have any experience with this?
May 2nd, 2009 at 1:05 am
Anything with Paris Hilton is bound to suck.
