It's been a busy few days of real life TCB that've interfered with the Pop!Clash universe and so the blog has slipped a little bit. Today was the icing on the cake: I spent the entire afternoon sitting in family court because my boyfriend's babymother is an unfit parent. Long story short, court was delayed because the file didn't get up to the judge on time and so we had to sit in the same corridor with Jabba the C*nt and her remedial boyfriend for 2 hours...I didn't know that a tank top, a sweater tied around the waist and spandex pants were court clothes. Silly me in my black pencil skirt and cropped avocado green suit jacket.
Good Grief. Anyway, here are some trivial morsels of diversion:
- Nickelback is the worst thing to come out of Canada since Men Without Hats and Mad Cow-tainted beef. I apologize to people everywhere on behalf of this triumvirate of pestilence and evil. Anyhoo, it seems that Nickelcrap's frontman Chad Kroeger is having some legal trouble again and currently being sued for punching some guy in the face two years ago. The complaintant is apparently hurt by Chad's lack of remorse over the incident. If Kroeger had any kind of human feelings at all, he would feel remorse for inflicting the Creedcophany that is Nickelback on the world. A silly little smack in the grill is minor in comparison.
- "The Linebaaacker in Reyeedd..." Here's Jessica Biel breaking a fundamental rule of photography and eyes by wearing red on the red carpet at the Metropolitan Museum of Arts Gala. She strikes me as a rube and now I just feel sad. Oh well, moving on...
- ...we have Madge at the same Gala. Here is a woman who despite all her money and fame, wouldn't know style, culture and grace if it bit her on the ass and will thus forever remain a rube. She's had enough time and money to figure it out so she has no excuse like poor old Jessica Biel. Is Madonna reading Goop? methinks not (or maybe she is...).
- Liberal Party Member of Parliament Ruby Dhalla is following the quaint, old-timey Indian tradition of abusing household staff and treating them like slaves. Among the accusations are: Dhalla's family not paying overtime for 16 hour days; farming them out to work at other locations like the family-owned chiropractic clinics and homes of extended family and; seizing and holding their passports and other vital documentation. By the way, Ruby Dhalla is an elitist fashion plate and I've no idea what the hell she's doing in my government, but it seems having good hair can get you places in the Canadian government:
Below is Rona Ambrose, Minister of the Environment from April 2006 - January 2007. She talked some smack about the Kyoto Accord not being do-able and was shuffled to a minor portfolio out West (where Nickelback is from...). She was also made President of the Privy Council, but since we got our own Constitution in 1982, and made the Queen come all the way over here to sign it, we don't need to kow-tow to the Privy Council to get anything governmental done anymore (emphasis on the 'mental').
Next is a real treat: Voila, Julie Couillard. Mlle. Couillard was an ex-ol' lady of a Quebec Hell's Angel who took up with some cabinet minister named Maxime Bernier. Messr. Bernier was so caught up in the lovin' that he'd leave sensitive government documents lying around on Mlle. Couillard's coffee table. Apparently the head was so good he forgot about her biker affiliations and what "breach of national security" means. They're not together anymore. Duh.
More Important Governmental Hair. There's no middle of the road with Canadian politicians and their hair...Stephen Harper isn't here because it's obvious he wears a piece. I'm only interested in authenticity. Baho keepin' it real up in this ma:
Rene Levesque - Leader of the Parti Quebecois and famous traitor, I mean separatist, I mean Canada's most famous comb-over.
I never have gotten what's so beautiful about Jessica Biel. But then I've never understood what's attractive about her boyfriend either.
ReplyDeleteMadonna just gets ridiculous-er and ridiculous-er. My first thought on seeing these pictures was "oh, it really was a hat!" because I'd seen another pic yesterday where that turquoise thing looked like it might be something in the background and I was thinking "that looks almost like she's wearing a pointed hat" and chuckling to myself, but now I see I was right and what the hell is that hat all about? And the blue-gray garment with the turquoise hat and overly storm-trooper boots...it's just a stupid looking outfit.
God, I'm so sorry about the court nonsense. From your descritption, the mom (and apparently that term should be used loosly) sounds like one of my own mother's siblings, and that's not a good thing. Hope is all works out for the best.
ReplyDeleteIn regards to the Gala thing, I was shocked at how many atrocious outfits these fools wore without any apparent sense of shame. That chick from Gossip Girl had on this poofy, floral monstrosity that left a permanent scar on my already fragile psyche.
Ps: Jessica Biehl's mouth (specifically her upper lip) has always looked a little off to me.
