Exploiting Celebrity Tragedy On Spec |
We're only two months in and this has already been a fantastic year for people who hate people who get more attention than them. What's her name lost a kid or two, I think. And that one dude who was alright died but that's okay because he hung out with that girl I heard wasn't cool. And that one lady--oh boy!--did she deserve that comeuppance she got! What a year! What a country!
