Self-centered bastards.
While watching Fox a few days ago, a news anchor cut in to advertise the stories they would be covering later in the day. At the top of her list was this ground-breaking headline: "Coming up next, find out what's on Usher and J.Lo's Christmas lists!" Oh good, because I was really approaching my wit's end. Thank you Fox, for covering the stories that really affect the human population and that truly capture the essence of the human condition. How could the world go on without the Christmas wish lists of two vapid, egomaniacal, and superficial celebrities, since these lists are so vital to the advancement of human kind? Good thing they aired that, I was really perplexed with what to get them for Christmas and WHY THEY DON'T TALK ABOUT THINGS THAT ACTUALLY MATTER. Do you care what Usher's and J.Lo's wish lists are? Do you think people in other countries with nothing to eat, who would appreciate ten dollars of their wealth really care about what people who have EVERYTHING could possibly want? Please, give me more material things so as to make the rest of the world notice how self-centered I am and how one-sided the flow of global wealth is. Oh no, my garage has extra space, instead of feeding an entire country and saving thousands of children from starvation and suffering, I think I'll buy a car that means absolutely nothing in the scheme of human solidarity. No wonder the rest of the world hates us, and with good reason too. Our news stations are plagued with details of lives who are doing nothing to change the state of the world, when the majority of the power and the nation's wealth is held within your hands, the same hands with which you cover your eyes to shield yourselves from the reality of your worthless personalities. So many of these celebrities say they came from nothing, miss "Jenny from the block," PLEASE that is the biggest lie this side of the Bronx. You want to see people who have come from nothing? People who still have nothing? Did you have enough food to eat, clothes to wear, a ROOF over your head? Did you have to work ten hours a day, just so you could promise dinner for one night? Yeah, I didn't think so.
