I have never seen an industry celebrate itself so often as the “Hollywood Ego Masterbation” festivals like the Emmy Awards, The Oscars, The MTV Music Awards and on…and on. Why do these people-who are already well paid for their work-deserve all these awards?
What about our fighting boys and girls serving our country in exchange for sand in their mouths and MAYBE some free health care- but only given if they can prove that they were injured during the course of their service(Did you see the piece about our Marines with Breast Cancer-who are NOT getting healthcare-because the military won’t admit they gave the men toxic water!)
In my opinon our military’s boys and girls deserve a lot more awards and acknowledgement that they currently are getting. Where is their magical red carpet award ceremony complete with complimentary gowns, tuxedos, jewelry, SWAG (aka goody bags) and FAB after parties? Our boys and girls put their lives on the line every day for our country-for us. What do they get in return? Crappy wages, crummy food and, if they are lucky, to come back home alive.
I don’t hate Hollywood. I think there is a need to escape from it all with a good movie or TV program from time to time. What I do hate is the “Hollywood Ego Masterbation” with its constant omage to THEMSELVES-(sic).
Fuck Hollywood. I’m so sick of hearing about which gown looked the best on “WHO CARES??” did those shoes match “WHO CARES??” purse (sic). How about we celebrate someone else for a change…like our boys and girls in the military?
If we are all going to be stuck with another “Hollywood Ego Masterbation Festival” aka The Oscars, could the celebrities, at least, all agree to donate ALL their SWAG to our fighting boys and girls in the military?
