So - Paris is not working and contributes nothing No person has a job because of her, her series, or her clothing line - all of which are silly IMO but they make money I think these people with these jobs would accept that reality even though you are being silly and not doing so Again, all I am saying is Paris Hilton (ridiculous as she is) chose to take her celebrity and make money off of it - for that she is a contributing member of society. The truth hurts and it obviously hurts you Mr. ostrich head in the sand

That's reaching. She's not doing anything. Those people could have other, more worthwile jobs. That's cool if you want to defend rich, dumb people who get to be on TV even though they already have plenty of money and are total morons. Oh, make that a moron who makes fun of people and seemingly doesn't know how to be polite, respectful, or WORK.

No - she gets up and gets on the set and acts - even if it is acting like an ass Again, those people would not have a job if she did not do that - her popularity is helping sell that show - no two ways about that. I am unsure how you can argue against that - but you have said sillier things

AND - I think you should tell all of those people that they "could have other, more worthwile jobs" Better yet - why don't you find them those jobs

You know, I had never thought of that, but that is a perfect analogy! And that dog she carries around is pretty damn ugly, too. (Or does she have more than one?)

I sometimes think that if she dressed in a way that was more...wholesome, and didn't have that perpetual and pathetic "come-hither" look, she might look alright, but I don't know.

Dude, there would just be some other show they'd get a job on. You know, if that show was not on, there WOULD BE ANOTHER ONE. One that would also provide jobs for whoever worked on it. It's not like they'd have dead air if her show wasn't on. Those people would have a job if anyone else got up on the set and acted, too. . And as far as "you've said sillier things"? Well, go f*** yourself! You deserve it!

Again, go shut down production - which will cost the jobs of the people on the set, the pre and post production people, the ad people, the people in the towns they are in, the news people, etc. - and find ALL of these people alternate work Tell them they are all out of work until you find them better and more suitable work just because you do not like the popular show and hate Paris Hilton because she is rich

Again, assinine statement and an immature response. But, so be it

Yeah. I don't really care about how she dresses, but she has no real life in her eyes. She is pretty, it's just in that weird overbred way. And her eyes are strange, to me. Plus, i think she's incredibly rude, thoughtless, and moronic - so that doesn't really make her more attractive in my eyes.

Actually, I thought your statement in defense of Paris was pretty assinine. And you can call me immature, but it still doesn't make you right. And, in fact, you called my statement silly first. (ie, you started it)
But, you clearly have some kind of issue with me, (which you've demonstrated repeatedly) so I'll just wave and be on my way.
Have a good one.

I have no issue with you and I think you know that. But telling me to **&&^ myself is hardly mature

Again, I am just saying the facts, which are that Paris Hilton's stardom is one of the main reasons for the success of that show, which is ongoing. Many people have jobs because of that. Participating in something that is providing jobs is a way of being a contributing member of society. Therefore, Paris Hilton is a contributing member of society, which, as I originally stated, seemingly separates her from many people like her, who do no work. I may not like her, but I cannot take that away from her - she is working. You, on the other hand, are willing to overlook the fact that she works and just want to slam her. So, go right on ahead - be my guest and do so - even though you are just wrong for doing it.

Honestly, if she hadn't been on "The Simple Life," they could've had some other rich and famous chick on it in her place, no jobs lost to my knowledge. I know the discussion's old at this point, but I thought Amber had a point.

Perhaps - but she went back and did it again when she did not have to - she could have said I do not want to do that - thus, she is working and has been working - which is what I asserted I guess they could have substituted someone else, but it may not have been a hit, the network also could just as easily have dropped the project, Maybe it will if she does not do another season. But, that she did two makes her a contributing member of society. I am unsure how anyone can argue against that - but apparently people hate her so much they are willing to disregard the facts and spin it. So be it

Also, I cannot believe people are taking offense at me stating that Paris Hilton is working and has been working - so much drama over Paris Hilton

I see what you're saying. I think it's the way you've expressed it that has thrown us. When people think of someone contributing to society, they tend to imagine teachers and social workers, right? I know you didn't intend to compare her looking sexy and acting like an ass to those jobs, but I was associating them with the whole concept. It just seems like such a small contribution to society, and one that is based on something completely shallow, so it's not much to speak of. But it is a contribution, yes. I'm sure we all regret to have to acknowledge that.

Dude, I think a person like her being in the public eye is detrimental. It's better if she doesn't work. She is contributing disgustingness, rudeness, and worse (ie, the danger of dropping 50-100 iq points while watching her show) to society when she "works" And i still submit that people could work on a different show if hers wasn't on. And, if there ARE other people like her who don't work? Thank god, they made the right choice. Cause i don't want to see other people like her, it's bad enough that she is being viewed by millions of people.
And this? === > "I have no issue with you and I think you know that. But telling me to "
The history of what you've written to me says different. 'sokay, though, i'm a big girl.
Have a great day
