Stupidity and Celebrity

[Can I Help Your A$$?]

I'm kinda surprised that the King of Pop actually managed to lift the receiver to call you.

Did you know that June bugs hiss? I once had one of the things get caught up in my hair in the middle of the night. I woke to this weird hissing sound really close to my head and I totally flipped out.

Well, I sat up, pulling my hair out away from my head yelling, "Get it out! Get it out! It's in my hair! Get it out!" to my then-hubby. Yeah, I was a bit agitated.

^-.-^

Yeah, I found that out last summer. I leave the door onto the porch open in the evenings and sometimes the bumble on in. Well I'm sitting on the couch and I keep hearing this hissing sound. Since my hair is very short, it wasn't in that, nope. It had crawled into my t-shirt! You have never seen anyone pull a t-shirt off faster! The little bastard's feet scratched my back, too!

I also had one manage to get itself into one of the woofers on my stereo. Naturally, it being too stupid to get out, I tried to get it, but couldn't. That speaker was it's final resting place.

And here I thought this was going to be a thread on stupid celebrities......

Of course, if it were, I would have had two nominations.

Stupid as in no personality? Toby Keith. Dude's got the personality of a door knob.

Stupid as in a really bad, evil personality, and an entitlement whore thinking the world revolves around her? Vanessa Williams. Total diva bitch. Worst celebrity I have ever met, and one of the worst customers I have ever had on any level....and I have been in customer service on various levels for 21 years.

Most of the rest of the celebrities I have met/dealt with/served have been pretty cool.

When I was still in high school, I was sitting on the couch one summer, eating barbecue and listening to music. I had a June bug fly down into the back of my pants! Luckily I realized what had happened as soon as it happened, so I just reached back and pulled it out (there wasn't much of a gap), but I can't imagine where that thing thought it was going.

.... as for getting a t-shirt off faster, I once dumped an entire quart of scalding-hot egg drop soup into my lap. I was out of my chair with my shirt off before the container had time to hit the floor.

People laugh at me because I *will* run, screaming, if I see a cockroach.

When I first moved to Florida I stayed with my step-father and his co-worker until I found a place. Now, NO place in Florida is bug free, but this was just a shack right on the nursery grounds. So it was no surprise to see a cockroach on the wall of their living room. I was new, so when I commented on its size (HUGE!) they told me to kill it. I looked around and not seeing any shotguns or cinder blocks, decided that a shoe might do the trick. Pulled mine off and approached. (If Draggar and Jester are reading, I'm sure they see this coming.) I got about three feet away and it turned, jumped off the wall and FLEW at me. Right at my face. To say I screamed like a girl would be an insult to brave women everywhere. I was lucky to stay dry. The two old timers couldn't say the same. The tears of laughter streaming down their cheeks hopefully obscured the jumping and dancing I did to get that damn palmetto bug off my face.

So yeah. I'm a little leery of teh cocka-roaches.

What happened with me is kind of embarrassing. I was in grade school and was getting ready for school. Well, I was sitting on the toilet with not a stitch on a felt something tickling my upper thigh. I had long hair at the time and thought it was that....until I looked down. My mother thought I was being murdered from the screaming I did. So I think I'm justified in my phobia!
