As I already said, she’s walking into Barney’s in those free slippers and she won’t be getting free stuff there. A lot of celebrity freebies are fallacies anyhow—they still come to you by way of a certain caliber of manager/publicist/stylist, those people are definitely getting paid.

Here’s a list of stuff she didn’t get for free:

That’s not even a fair comparison since there’sly no non-pejorative usage of “retarded.” GTFO here with that mess.

nouveau riche

Even if she got the stuff she wore into Barney’s for free, she didn’t get the stuff she walked out of Barney’s with for free.

I don’t care about nouveau richness in terms of class gatekeeping so much as just fiduciary stupidity. There’s a lot of self-made, first generation rich people who don’t act like fools with their money. It’s about, to paraphrase old Kanye, not going to Jacob with 25 thou before you have a house, metaphorically…

Cardi B became famous only two days ago and she always seems to be spending money like the gravy train’s never gonna stop. Not only is it nouveau riche AF, it’s reckless. Just ask Johnny Depp.

Why would any firm in the world want to take on the shitstorm that would come from hiring not just Brett Kavanaugh, but a disbarred Brett Kavanaugh?

There’s a ton of available science to suggest you’re grossly mistaken.

Thank you for sharing this. It’s a really important point that a lot people don’t consider when they start blaming Kim for allowing Kanye to flap in the wind. It takes a lot of false starts to find an effective treatment regimen, and people in manic states are frequently in denial about their condition and resistant…

No, Irish, like I commented. Although I made some edits that may have shown up after your reply.

I knew an alcoholic (who once told me his parents met at an AA meeting) who would indeed blackout and become sloppy and belligerent after just three beers. He’d also wake the next day with no sense that he’d even blacked out in the first place. People act like beer is a lightweight indulgence, but that’s only true if…

He doesn’t need some cushy law firm gig. He already has a lifetime appointment to the US Court of Appeals. That’s what’s so fucked up about this. He could walk away from this tomorrow and still be assured of a prestigious position for the rest of his life. But that’s just not good enough for him.

Oh, hells yeah, I’d rather die a spinster than ever have to put up with that kind of needy tantrum from a grown man. But just the fact that Kim married Kanye is enough to suggest that her tolerance for bullshit is way higher than ours.

I dunno, the way Kim described that argument didn’t sound too different from the way my plebeian mom friends describe their manbaby husbands.

Back in the 80s, there was a flagship location in midtown Manhattan which, at age 7, was my favorite place in the city. It was just as pictured at the link —preemies in incubators, real human nurses tending to dolls in cribs and maternity ward-style bassinets, and an animatronic cabbage patch garden from which the…

Kanye’s the kind of sophomoric dunce who believes that clinging to a minority opinion makes you a free thinking revolutionary as opposed to overwhelmingly wrong. He thinks he’s friggin’ Copernicus, but Copernicus didn’t think he was too smart to need books.

He even leans into alliteration in a distinctly adolescent way.

I was going to expend a futile amount of emotional labor laying bare the sheer hypocrisy and projection of that reply, but I’m opting instead to just let your words speak for themselves. You’re a piece of work.

I’m having a tough time trying to figure out why you’re being such an ass.
