Thisthisthis. I was bullied (verbally, except this one time when a girl threw a tomato at my head. Moderately ridiculousfunny looking back at it, but not so much at the time) in primary school and the first few years of high school, and I still worry about this one guy who I was horrible to. He came from a super poor family and had a few siblings- they all smelt bad, and had super unclean knotty hair and clothes in incredibly poor condition, and they got ripped to shreds each day. This was when I was about 10, and I had one friend who would still tell me to go away at lunchtime if she was hanging out with other friends, so I was super insecure. So this guy was getting hassled after school and I was walking past, and the bully yells out to me, 'Hey, you hate this guy, right?' and I just went paused and went 'Yeah, I hate him', and kept on walking. I mean, fuck that was cruel. Fuckfuckfuck.
I know that this generally doesn't work, but man, standing up to one of my high school bullies was a super awesome moment. Like, looking back on it, it was pretty shitty of me to say this to her, but 15 yr old me still thinks I'm awesome- I was walking through the common room after school, and the crazy-stereotypical popular girls starting yelling shit at me, so I just kept on walking until one of them goes 'You think you're so cool, don't you?' and I go 'Yeah. Actually, I am cool, and you're just a stupid slut.'
She invited me to her pre-ball party like 2 weeks after that.
Jesus, I know. As soon as I heard that piano I just started bawling and now I have mascara all over my face and hands and clothes. Also: this looks super sad and I want to give everyone a hug because man, life is ROUGH sometimes.
It kinda feels like James Franco started off making a Joaquin Phoenix mockumentary, got some more press and thought 'Fuck it, let's see how this goes.'
That, or he's just a douche.
A+ for finding the picture that perfectly sums up absolutely everything unbearable about Smugnyth Pooptrow (her kindergarten nickname (definitely doing that right)) and also- 'lifts your consciousness'?! I don't even know what that means. Seriously. I feel like that's something that 'artists' say, but DOESN'T ACTUALLY EXIST. But I probably just don't get it. Maybe if I only eat pureed lemons with just a hint of cilantro (also, I'm from New Zealand, I literally don't know what that is. Coriander?) for 6 years, I might find myself 'lifted' (gifted, higher than the ceiling. Ooh-ee what a beautiful feeling. Suga Suga- Baby Bash (I'm hip too))
Didn't she pick this day so she could talk about Country Strong? I assume that's what all the interviews are for, the singing thing etc. She's gone on this particularly aggravating run of "I CAN RELATE TO YOU" themed press recently, talking about "Oh my god, I ate so much fried chicken because I'M NORMAL LIKE YOU AND SO IS MY CHARACTER IN MY NEW MOVIE COUNTRY STRONG PLEASE SEE IT"
