A night at the Emmystifying reason why people give a fuck about this shit

This subject has been the source of embittered rants time and again, and I'm not bringing anything new to the subject, but it frustrates me that so much attention is lavished UPON WHAT GODDAMN EUROTRASH PIECES OF CLOTH CELEBRITIES COVER THEIR OVERLY PLASTIC SURGIFIED BODIES WITH at every awards ceremony! It's not that people take a casual interest in it; that's fine. It's a harmful diversion from daily life. But some people, and namely some people in the media, take it too far, with an overabundance of coverage which wouldn't be a problem if there weren't 50 million other subjects more deserving of commentary (even empty-minded commentary!), including a whole litany of social and political problems in our country and the world of which people are either unaware or indifferent because the media barely gives them a sidelong glance before racing over to drool over George Clooney's shoes or whatever. And, to be perfectly blunt, it seems to be less educated, more lower-class people who care about red carpet fashion, which is a shame, because they of all people should repudiate the worship of ultrarich celebrities who, frankly, couldn't care less about them, and start demonstrating more pride and self-interest in their own class.

When I'm finally invited to the Emmys, I'm going to wear a fly-ass shirt that is ubersexy and has the power to kill Joan Rivers.
