I have a question.
I've been following this Vanessa Hudgens incident on the internet, because its come up on the social news sites that I read on a regular basis. For those that don't know, she's one of the stars of the Disney series 'High School Musical'.
Apparently she let someone, presumably a boyfriend, take an innocent picture of her before she got dressed. So she was completely nude when the photo was taken. It was not posed, or staged, and is clearly not a photo designed to promote a sexual or salacious agenda.
So why is this such a big bloody deal? She's a pretty girl, over 18, and the image is clearly not intended for publication. No attempt was made to make it look 'pretty' even though as a pretty girl it ends up being that way anyway. But why the huge drama?
It should not be the assumption that any image of a woman with no clothes on is instantly scandalous. Why does a celebrity have to be held to a higher standard? This picture is not such a big deal and she shouldn't be scandalized about it.

I've really had enough of people getting picked up in front of the grocery store.
What is with the arrogance of that? You can't walk your narrow, ugly ass a few steps across a parking lot to your car? You have to plug up the whole damn aisleway in front of the mall.
This just drives me nuts. They're doing construction in the Safeway at my local mall. Thus there is a lot of construction signs around, fences up and general confusion and mayhem. Plus, its a perfectly acceptable night and while a little cool, nothing that would prevent a lazy nitwit from walking across the parking lot.
But here's the asshole, waiting with her half filled shopping cart, for a pick up. Why!?! And here they come, in a big ol' Buick. And what's this? Stopping to pick up the arrogant bastard are we? And look, it creates a six car log-jam behind this pair of assholes who have to screw over the whole world because of their laziness.
