Be honest. I'm curious.

 

[Will]

I think its a ridiculous media circus, and really not newsworthy.

 

[DavidH]

Finally getting rid of the very same condom he's been using for the last 20 years of course! It eventually filled up to the brim with semen.

 

[Louster]

It took me a while to work in the poll. So yeah, option 2 is basically what Will said. I am regularly astonished by the insanity of the whole cult of celebrity thing.
An amusing thought experiment: imagine this huge cavalcade following this chubby, bald guy down the street and through the city as he sweeps, while all around the city are hundreds of other chubby, bald guys doing exactly the same thing being utterly ignored.

Grmf.

 

[Samaroon|Terracotta]

One and Two, but voted one! ;x

 

[FuzzyLogic]

As much as people like seeing others make good, they also re-he-eally like to see them fail so much more. Watching a celebrity fall from their perches is, for some odd reason, desirable, and it sells :/

#2. I only have interest in this story because he was DJ'ing where I work a couple of weeks ago. When we had Frank Bruno DJ'ing in Plymouth he ended up in rehab a month later. Hmm...

 

[Trem]

Am I the only one who was turned on by the pictures?

I didn't see that option in the poll so I can't vote.

Boy George is so dreamy.

 

[Frizz]

My initial reaction was #1, but after consideration, I'm thinking is BBC News really tabloid news?

 

[cHodAX]

Just deserts, the fella is a total prat.

 

[Will]

I didn't see that option in the poll so I can't vote.

Have you considered the "other" option?

 

[Trem]

Yes I did consider it then thought fuck it.

Happy?

Whats the point in being aroused if you can't tell everyone about it?

 

[dysfunction]

Yes I did consider it then thought fuck it.

Happy?

Whats the point in being aroused if you can't tell everyone about it?

you just did!

Anyway...I really dont care if there is a gallery or not or the fact he is cleaning the streets or if its a media circus.

 

[Earl]

My immediate reaction? When did Gary Glitter escape..

 

[TdC]

what Will said tbh. I head about the whole media circus thing and thought "ffs":/

 

[Thadius]

boring

 

[mank!]

it made me decide never to shave my head again.

thanks lous

 

[Paradroid]

I think the US reaction was OTT, I couldn't see the same circus in the UK tbh.

What is your immediate reaction to this?

Another shit thread.

 

[MYstIC G]

Someone's trying to get some exposure before they fall into obscurity.

 

[Raven]

before?

 

[Aada]

I don't know why everyone cares so much.. hes not the first celebrity in the world to do community service.

Obviously they had nothing better to report on the day so they decided this would be breaking news.

 

[throdgrain]

Im a celebrity, and I did community service too!



(Im not gay though).

 

[Sharma]

My first reaction was actually "Where the fuck is his hair?"

 

[Aada]

Im a celebrity, and I did community service too!



(Im not gay though).

Is it true what they say Throd? once you go black you don't go back ?


Bet you're arse has been reamed too many times ;/

 

[throdgrain]

That doesnt make sense Aada, Im not sure if its meant to be a joke or an insult
Either way its fairly poor
I did do community service anyway, mostly it wernt a big deal, except when you have to work in gangs with the more regular types, i.e 17 years old, retarded morons. Then its really an eye-opener as to how people behave .

 

[Tom]

Great. Some ex-celebrity who dressed as a woman did some community service.

Really, who gives a fuck? Oh I know, the people who buy OK! and Hello magazine!

 

[gmloki]

My first reaction is that he has been a bit of a Salad dodger. What a fat nacker he is now.

Other than that another media sham dumbing us all down.

 

[Patrikoo]

ehm lol
