The cult of celebrity has been bothering me this morning. I guess I just don't get it.

"Beauty is the god of our times and celebrity is our most noble virtue;
the opiate that keeps the zombies blind and in line and hypnotized in worship of the pantheon of sex and shine ... But I refuse to suck at the tit of distraction,
and I refuse to worship the human face." - Ramallah, "Kill a Celebrity"

In other news, I should get back to work. Have a good day, everyone.

Stay Gold!
