Christian Bale - You're a Dick
The big news in entertainment this week was Christian Bale and his blow-out on his movie set. Apparently, a lighting technician (or whatever) walked in the background of his scene for the 2nd time. Gosh, I know when I'm powdering my face nothing gets my goat like something distracting in the mirror, but really. Mr. Bale went off like a cheap cashier on a bad day in K-mart, and I love K-mart. He screamed for something like 6 minutes at the poor light guy, who tried to apologize. But Christian would have none of that, after all, surely he is perfect. Right.
I have always disliked movie stars, tv stars, any kind of public personality who puts their entire worth on the adoration of some idiot public. My God, we've all read about what they are like. You can't tell me that you don't stand in the supermarket line and sneak a peak at the headlines in the rags on the racks? I do, Hell, I read them outright and openly, in front of God and everyone. But, we all know, if you get adored for just having your smiley face on TV, it's going to go to your head. It just depends on what length you will let it control you.
And granted, there are certainly some 'literary' freedoms taken on these articles in those rag magazines. But there are too many stories like this for there not to be some truth in there.
The problem is that people like Christian Bale, or any 'movie' star for that matter, think that their presence on this earth is vitally important. News Flash! You people actually offer up nothing to the real people of the world when it comes right down to it. If I were in a plane that crashed on a deserted island, you'd be nothing more than competition for food. I think I could figure that Mr Bale would be flabby and weak and worthless when it comes to building a shelter and gathering food. He'd be too busy looking for a mirror, the press, anything other than actually surviving like 'real' people.
The adoration these people come to expect and need is sickening. The fact that anyone gives it to them is even worse. I won't say that they don't live the good life, they do. But I will say that I work a shitload harder at my job than they do. I can act, look at this business. Hell, I can act better than they ever could in the same circumstance. I've put up with dirty butts, stinky breath, farting pigs and greasy hair. If Christian Bale had been in my shoes, that pussy, girl-man would have run crying to his plush trailer, crying between sobs that he expected better, by God.
A young lady who is a friend of my daughter's worked at a posh hotel in Hollywood. Being young, she didn't know all the 'older' actresses in Hollywood. Meg Ryan stumbled in one day. If you haven't seen photos of these spoiled shits without the benefit of makeup artists, then you haven't seen anything. They look like any other middle aged American. I myself ran into Rod Stewart in 1987 in Tampa, Florida and thought he was a flaming weirdo in his frilly shirt and entourage. He had a pasty gray face, looked like shit and stiffed the bartender. Only after he left did I find out who he was. Until that point, I thought he was an idiot, dressed like a gay guy (no offense) and was horribly old for the shirt and pants he was wearing.
Anyway, this young lady was friendly to Meg, but had no clue who she was. After helping Meg settle into her suite, she made her exit without incident. But, Meg, who felt that she had been slighted, immediately called management and complained that the girl had not 'recognized' her. Puuuuh leeze. Meg, get a fucking life. Do you actually need someone to acknowledge your existence to feel okay? You stupid bitch.
The same young girl ran into Ozzie Osborn in the lobby and spoke with him for a few minutes about nothing; the weather, the town. He walked away and she overheard him say, "It's nice when someone pretends not to recognize you". The ego of these people. The girl had no clue who he was. She wasn't pretending at all. But these adoration hungry people will do anything, ANYTHING, to feel recognition and affirmation for who they are.
This is the life of these so-called actresses and actors. They consider what they do an 'art'. Fuck that shit. What they do is play around and memorize some lines. That is not art. Art might be considered a great painting, a work of literary genius, poetry that makes the masses cry. Or - art just might be going to a fucking boring job every day because you have no choice, mucking through the same old shit, and barely making ends meet, but somehow being needed and keeping your damn job. It might just be the art of living paycheck to paycheck and praying you can pay the utility bill and still afford to eat.
They (actors) cry that they worked so hard to get there. So what? You did what any of the rest of us do. You waited tables, you did carpentry work, you did a damn job. You did what you have to do to pay the bills. So what? Like I'm supposed to admire you because you stuck with it until someone noticed you? I have stuck with my job for 30 years and I don't scream like a fucking banshee when someone screws something up. Not one of these people can manage a relationship unless they are totally adored, or they choose some sorry dumbass that will suck toe jam off their feet because they are famous. And let's not even get into the 'models' who 'just love them so much!'. I will say this - if Hugh Hefner was not rich, do you think for one second that the 'girls next door' would just love him so much? If Hefner was just a guy next door with a 30,000 a year income, no way would those girls just 'love him', no matter how wonderful he was. No 21 year old chick is going to bump an 80 year old guy because he's just so nice. Ugh, it's just torture to even watch that show. And Hugh can't be that stupid, but what a sobering realization.
Guess what, Christian, Meg, Tom Cruise and others - you are just doing an easy job for a shitload of money and you aren't doing a thing to deserve anymore than the rest of us. I'm sorry that there are a bunch of insecure poor slobs out there that for whatever reason, worship your sorry asses. But it doesn't mean you can treat other people like your personal shoe crap. I love entertainment. I love "House", "Big Bang Theory", and "Grey's Anatomy". But would I forgive them for screeching like maniacs at 'normal' people? No fucking way.
I didn't even know who Christian Bale was until his screaming pussy fit came into the news. When I heard it, I must admit I hoped terrorists would take out all of the satellites that transmitted their sorry shit to the rest of the free world. Without your idiot fans, you'd be nothing but another whiskery faced guy walking around in baggy pants with his tighty whitey's hanging out, butt crack showing and looking like trash, looking like shit on you, as they do on everyone else. You'd be nothing but a spoiled dumbass without much thought about anything of any importance. In spite of the fact that you are interviewed like you actually have any coherent thoughts in your empty head.
I've never blown up at anyone, ever, over anything, regardless of how important it was to me. That (blowing up) just shows how little regard such people have for anyone else. Adoration from a few stupid people in society aggravates a situation in which someone thinks that they are far more important than they actually are.
But, at this point, I'm guessing that Christian pussy cry baby girly boy will come out on top. He apologized, saying he overreacted. No, he apologized because it became public and he saw what a total ass he was and he got caught. I'm betting he doesn't have a sorry bone in his scrawny, sad body. He is scrambling to retain that adoration factor, and he'll do anything to accomplish that.
The life of an actor is great. Little effort, big bucks. I acted in plenty of high school plays, it wasn't hard by any means. And I put plenty of effort into it. Mr. Bales whining about how intense he feels about his 'art', is no more than a whining pussy boy trying to fix his image as someone worthy of note. He's an ass, he'll always be an ass, and chances are he'll be a bigger ass as time passes.
Christian Bale, take a flying leap and pray you don't end up on a deserted island with me. You pussy.
An Interesting Trend
I have always thought that America would never decriminalize the escort business. Our country was built on a foundation of puritan values and strict religious followings. People fled England to escape the strict rulings of the church and to find a place where they could practice their faith without persecution.
But I've noticed an interesting trend over the past year. Prostitution is being brought into the mainstream via the world of the sitcom and other entertainment media. Several episodes of Two and a Half Men have used escorts as the story line. 20/20 has done a special on 'the working girls'. Boston Legal, one of my favorite shows, often features 'working girls' in the story. Spitzer might have lost his job over a pretty working girl, but she is doing pretty darn well for herself, after the story broke. And who can ignore HBO's little show, 'Cathouse' ?
Is America becoming more tolerant of the escort business? Or are they just more curious, and is the media simply responding to that curiosity?
In a recent episode of Boston Legal, a girl challenged the state of MA in regards to their laws on prostitution. She stated, "I chose to go into this business, and I was never ashamed of it". Jerry, the responding character, replied with his disdain of her 'sexual deviance', and pounded his briefcase with emphasis, which caused his blowup doll to pop up and inflate. Just who is judging who here?
It's well known that writers of sitcoms use their vehicles to voice their personal opinions of the politics of the day. Boston Legal is one of the more prominent shows that portrays the left more often, using the show to throw the proverbial pies at GW Bush. But I am always amused by Denny Crane, the character who plays a Republican, NRA loving man with mad cow disease, on Boston Legal. Whom, by the way, enjoys the affections of local working ladies and finds no shame in that at all.
Could it be that the liberal left is getting to a point of acknowledging this business, and admitting that it's not such a terrible thing after all?
We all know this business is known as 'the world's oldest profession'. It will continue, regardless of laws, demands, and social disdain. I am all for decriminalization. Not because I worry about being hauled off to cell block 9 (and I don't expect I'd do well there), but because it would make the business safer for all involved, net the government loads of money in tax dollars, and finally admit that no one can determine morality, or determine how a people must live.
Some rules are good. It is good that slavery is wrong, that child porn is bad, that murder should be punished. Rules do serve a purpose and prevent total chaos and anarchy. But some rules are simply an order that only benefits the bad guys.
While the GOP regards faith and religion as one of the foundations of the party, the truth is that my best clients are die hard republicans. Like Spitzer, it is a case of 'do as I say, not as I do'. Life does not work that way, at least, not below the surface.
I'm a republican. For the most part. I believe capitalism works, if you let it, and you cannot tax a country into prosperity. I believe that a person has the ability to better themselves and go from gutter to wealth. I believe hard work and producing is vital to our society. I don't believe that the welfare system is helpful, long term. I have no issue with helping those who need help to get going again, but it should not be a long term solution.
Anyway, sorry for the digression. But I've noted that the media seems to find prostitution of great interest lately. And, most of the shows present it as an interesting line of work. The actors that portray escorts are beautiful, intelligent and desirable. They aren't the poor foreigners paying off their illegal immigration debt, they aren't crack heads off the street, they aren't cheap, dollar "ho's", stumbling around in torn net stockings and 6 inch 'come do me' heels.
And I wonder, will we soon trod the path of the homosexual? Will groups of ladies soon be demanding recognition for this particular choice? Could some of us be 'born this way', rather than making a choice? Hmmm. I wonder. Silly thought, I know, but you never know where the media might lead us...
I am not about to even suggest that those who are driven to this work via abuse and human trafficking operations should not be helped or considered. There are plenty of pig men around who seek minors or foreigners forced into the work. But for women who make the choice willingly, and are of an age in which mutual consent is legally acceptable, they should be allowed to make that decision.
I can go to any bar, let a man buy me a drink, then take me home and do wild things to me. But, charge a fee for that, and suddenly, it's wrong? Sorry, he already paid for the drink.
Perhaps a new age is dawning. Seeing prostitution presented in tv dramas and news shows as acceptable by some, just might sway a few. Hard to say at this point. But I find it an interesting turn of events.
Who's ready to watch Cathouse, season 3??
TER sucks
I am retiring in July. I have sent numerous emails to TER to remove my ad and reviews, in light of this decision. To this date, they have not responded.
I hear numerous complaints about TER - The Erotic Review. They are by no means a premier site, but they are high-profile.
They archive posts made by clients and providers - so be aware of that - all who discuss on the boards.
They force fake reviews by refusing to post real reviews by clients who see nice providers who please them, but don't do outlandish acts or don't participate in greek or other unsafe practices.
Be aware, the owner of TER is a young, chubby, flatuent boy who is governed by his weenie and is not at a stage in his life where he can yet make intelligent and informed decisions. He threatens ladies on his board to give it up for free, or he will ruin them on his boards. He works willingly with LE to turn over clients via credit card information and board postings.
Getting rich and running a provider/client board does not make you a respected businessman.
Respect and privacy for clients and ladies on the board would be a start, but this young idiot does not have the patience nor the brains to do that. Ladies who are in danger from stalkers cannot get anything removed from his board - such is his defiant need to be in control - to the detriment of those who subscribed to his service.
I sincerely hope that clients and ladies alike refuse to join his boards and find other boards that respect their privacy and post reviews as clients write them. Feedback from ladies on reviews would be nice, but I'm not expecting to see that anytime soon.
The bottom line is that TER will willingly and gladly put their clients and ladies at risk. And right now - primaries, Spitzer, 20/20 report- you better hope this little asshole doesn't get questioned too hard by the DA. Because he'll cave like a 9 year old caught by mom with his hand in the cookie jar. He'll give you up so fast you will wonder what the hell just happened.
TER is the saddest excuse for a hobby board that I have seen. Fake reviews, non-existent customer service, a board that puts ladies at risk. Think about it before you put your credit card information on there to join. Ladies - you can't escape once you join, and gents - you are tracked and your posts are archived. TER is the worst thing that has happened to our world as we know it.
Ok! Be Nice Or The Stuffed Bunny Gets It !!!
So, my blog, which I had to delete, was about why you might not want to give grown women stuffed animals as a gift. Did I touch a nerve or what? I had a quick email that accused me of being basically greedy and narrow minded. Another was, well, downright nasty. One email assumed I threw the stuffed animals away when I could 'give them to our needy brothers and sisters'. That person probably figured I was snickering and sneering, waving the cuddly toys at needy children shouting, "See this! You can't have it!" Oh, all as I bite the head off the poor, innocent toy.
I don't throw such things away, or even sell them at the proverbial yard sale. I play music for various charity events, and I take the toys with me and hand them out to the kids. I also help needy college kids by building computers for them (at my expense), I've helped needy single mothers, and have been known to help out other women in the 'business' when they need help. I've given of my time, my income and my talents to help others. I tutor kids at the community college and I give pretty well to the Christmas Angel tree each year.
I am not an ungracious person. I am appreciative of my clients who are thoughtful and give gifts - even stuffed things. It is sweet that they think of me as a cuddle person.
I put a lot of thought into a gift when I get someone something. I'd like them to enjoy it and use it. I try to use common sense. Something tells me that if I buy a cute baby plastic hammer for a man, he is going to be puzzled by that gift. My point was not to appear unappreciative, but rather, if you want to give a gift, put some thought into what a woman might really enjoy or use.
Yeah, women do love cuddly things. But I live in a small house and don't have room for a lot of cuddly things. And after receiving dozens of stuffed toys, I'm just, well, puzzled. I'm not unappreciative, just wondering about all these cute little stuffed things.
So, my apologies to all who felt offended, lambasted, or horrified at my faux pas. And my apologies to all the cute stuffed critters too.
Really, I'm not a mean, nasty person. I just like perfume better.
