It's the intellectual equivalent of those tourist trap booths that, for a price, will stick your face on the cover of Time Magazine and let you keep a copy for yourself.
So is the internet. Your entire point is stuffy at best.

There should be a Twitter service that doesn't allow tweets with less than 140 words for that.

I am so sunburned and need help! I'm in Mexico and I was sunbathing when I fell asleep with my huge Prada butterfly sunglasses on and now look at me! I'm going to have to hide from cameras for days. I usually never get red, I always get dark. It hurts! Do u guys have any remedies I can try to help ease the pain and get rid of the redness?Everyone here is making fun of me! Look at Reggie's teammate and friend Bobby starting with the jokes. My whole body is burned but my face looks the worst because of the glasses. I will never wear sunglasses when sunbathing again!

James, dude, you gotta check out her blog in which she rants over the fact that Octomom has the same designer sunglasses which is HORRIBLE because Octomom should be spending the money on kids. Maybe Kimmy was able to buy those specs cause, well, she made another flipping sextape. I mean, jesus, is she for real? Twitter, blogging and whatnot really are eyeopeners into the world of celebs. Never realized there were such dumbasses. What did Ashton say about him winning from CNN? Like it was some big deal and shit. But I should stfu cause I follow way too many celebs (I don't even like).

Considering removing some ilxors with whom it's impossible to have a conversation (you are asleep when I'm awake and vice versa). PLEASE don't take it as an affront.
Also I've forgotten who ~50% of you are (I'm vzzzbx) which isn't helping. PLEASE don't take that as an affront either.
