He's saying working class people don't moan about it, they try and get on with it. They don't whine to the papers about feeling disconnected, they don't call their publicist before they call the rehab centre. They don't even call the rehab centre. They get up, and get their kids to school, and get the fuck on with it, and do the best they can.


Ah, but many working class people do moan about it, just not to the media. And yes some do just get on with their lives but many don't. Some get help with therapy or anti-depressants (not just for the rich btw). Some also "get up and get their kids to school" and then go home and blow their brains out because life is too crushingly miserable to cope with anymore.>> ^dannym3141:
Gervais is slagging off these people who don't have depression, they have 'oh i feel a bit meh' or 'i'm a bit upset', or worst still "oh i need some publicity". And he's slagging off people who need to put a label on everything so that there's an excuse. No i'm not a bit of a whore, i'm addicted to sex. Oh please. I agree with him, i know what he means.


I don't really follow celebrities much so I don't know who he's referring to. If that is what he is saying then by all means, I agree with you. *If* he were to paint them all with the same brush however then I think he would be doing a disservice to the ones that are really suffering. And yes it is possible to have fame and money and still suffer, just ask Kurt Cobain or Marilyn Monroe.

And I agree with brycewi19 and 00Scud00 that the attitude of "just suck it up" or "just get over it" is a pretty ignorant view of something as serious as depression. If only it were that simple.

Be careful. Motivation can be like heroine. Always seeking your next fix. Justifying your insecurities and fear of failure with needing more motivation before you get started or to keep on going. Just do. Nike says it best: Just Do It. I know it didn't work out for Tiger Woods, so much, but I think it applies in your case.

ok, so I just finished reading "Running With Scissors" on my new Kindle. I wasn't disturbed or shocked...I thought he handled everything pretty well, considering. Every time I read one of these things I'm more tempted to write my story...need more motivation, got any more recommendations?

I thought I was unshockable after I read that book too, then I followed Manson's book with "Running with Scissors" which disturbed me a lot more than Manson's book

In reply to this comment by laura:
Yeah, I was given it as a gift, lent it to someone, never got it back, bought another one...repeat three times. It's that engrossing. Plus, I learned from that book that I'm a lot naughtier than I thought...
I couldn't be shocked, I tell you.

I love that book. A friend loaned it to me one day and I just casually opened it up to check out how it was written. It sucked me in instantly and it just got better.

Read his book The Long Hard Road Out Of Hell.
I think Bill O'Reily should stick to interviewing people within the reality realm of his understanding.
MM handles these things soooooooo well. I am not such a huge fan of his music, but I am a huge fan of him.

It's obviously a hand-rolled or unfiltered cigarette. Not a joint. Also, you don't immediately exhale when smoking pot.


Vol, you've been out of practice for a while, eh my friend?

That's obviously a joint. Nobody smokes a freaking cigarette like that, savors it, and giggles about nothing in the process.

And when's the last time you saw somebody sharing a cigarette?

Marilyn loved her mary jane back when all was right with the world.

Yes, but what it looks like and what one "should" behave like when smoking pot does not prove or disprove anything.
I agree that it is not very clear wether this is indeed a joint or not. The photographer who sold this footage to collector Keya Morgan for $275,000 however claimed there was marihuana involved in this shot. Guess Marilyn smoking a cigarette would have only earned him 275$...

Here is more on the story

It's like Marilyn Manson had a little sister who's into Pop.

Excellent, mrs. Kitteh. I shall watch it pronto.

Sorry about the soppy theme. Yes its <3 and yes I do have other interests.
1. I convinced my 6 year old self that Sonic the Hedgehog was my boyfriend
2. I actually liked Knuckles more, but figured he was out of my league
3. I thought I was in loved with my parents' friends' son, who was much older than me. I was about 12.
4. Then at 14 I contacted him, because I thought it would be romantic to lose my virginity to him, my first "love"
5. We hung out, I realized it was all fake, and kicked him out of my house before we did anything serious. He was not happy.
6. I went through all of middle school hung up on wanting a boyfriend and liking boys. No I do not have an absent father figure.
7. I became confident and found my true personality in the second year of high school, from then on, I got anyone I perused and started doing extremely well in school.
8. I almost lost my virginity drunk at a party on the backyard lawn. We were interrupted.
9. I almost lost my virginity in a bathroom in Cuba, with a Cuban model. We were interrupted.
10. I lost my virginity on a forest floor, with a British man whom I dearly loved and who dearly loved me. We had a long wonderful relationship. I am very glad it happened that way, and I feel very stupid reflecting on how it could have happened.
11. In middle school I fell in love with a bat. He was a character in the "Silverwing" book series. I told my friend and she laughed at me and made me cry.
12. I was my best gay friend's straight love (every gay guy has a girl love). I rejected him, he guilt tripped me and we didn't speak for 2 years. We have been amazing friends since then for about 6 years now.
13.I have had my heart broken once. He later fixed it.
14. I have never been in a "bad" relationship.
15. I am exactly like my mother when it comes to love.
16. I was in love with my high school art teacher. He was an ugly British man. He knew I wanted to fuck him in the dark room. He was a very innocent guy and it made him feel somehow guilty. We are friends still, and we email each other and I visit him at school. He is proud of me artistically and that makes me happy.
17. I have had a sex dream about the guy from Extreme Makeover: Home Edition. Except he wasn't all overly concerned and happy, but was bad ass, to match his sexy exterior
18. I had a sex dream about House (Hugh Laurie)
19. I had a sex dream about Chase (the Aussie) from House
20. I had a sex dream about a young version of Marilyn Manson
21. I enjoyed all of the above
22. I watch porn at least once a week
23. Although I have used the word "love" loosely, I have only actually truly loved two men.
24. I feel like I am an extremely lucky person and that nothing horrible has every happened to me...especially after reading some of these.
25. The only things that matter to me in life is creative fulfillment and mutually loving the people who deserve it, hopefully that is your family, your current partner, your children, and probably only half your friends.

WTF are they color blind though?


I believe they are doing one of Warhol's Marilyn's.

Skinny Puppy? Been a while since I've heard that sample.

i suppose 'death by finger up the bum' is the only way for her to go that i can come up with

apparently a 37min cut of film from the surviving footage was made to companion the documentary Marilyn Monroe: The Final Days (2001)
