WHAT IS A CELEBUTARD?
 
Celebutards: The Hollywood Hacks, Limousine Liberals, And Pandering Politicians Who Are Destroying America

Quote:

FOREWORD: WHAT IS A CELEBUTARD?

ce - leb – u – tard (suh – LEB – yu – tard) noun:

1. A famous person with a grandiose notion of his own importance and contribution to the known universe.
2. A human being of sub-par intellect, oversized ego and colossal bank account, whose existence represents a drag on the food chain, waste of oxygen and severe annoyance.
3. An egregious moron. (Origin: from the Latin celebutardus Paris Hiltonus maximum Baldwinus

“Sacrificing American soldiers or innocent civilians in an unprecedented pre-emptive attack on a separate, sovereign nation may well prove itself a most temporary medicine.”
— Sean Penn ad in the Washington Post, October 18, 2002.

“I think life’s an irrational obsession.”
— Sean Penn in Entertainment Weekly, August 8, 1997.
Quote:

Celebutards. They walk among us but they are not of us. They eat, sleep and breed just like ordinary humans. But at some magic moment — between the time, say, a movie script wanders into the hands of a world-class celebutard such as George Clooney, and the words travel through lilting vocal chords to land on unsuspecting ears, something terrible occurs. They start to believe in their own ignorance.

A dull thinker such as Madonna becomes, in her mind and in the eyes of devoted fans, a self-appointed sage. Veritable moron Rosie O’Donnell transforms from a shrill, gay mom into a rocket scientist. Sean Penn boldly breaks bread with tyrants and enemies of his own country, vapid pop singer Sheryl Crow calls for rationing toilet paper to one sheet per sitting, and earth avenger Al Gore forgets he lost an election. Give a celebutard a microphone and a little encouragement, and suddenly, without warning, that talented performer says and does things that are really, incredibly, grotesquely dumb.

The term celebutard is believed to have first appeared in the New York Post’s Page Six gossip column, as a compound of celebrity, debutante, and retard. The word is not meant to denigrate those struggling either with youth or with genuine mental challenges. On the contrary, it is a term of art used to describe lazy and egotistical thinkers, stars equipped with abundant money, fame, idle hours and yes-men, who feel secure enough in their own influence and intelligence to create insane foreign or domestic policy in their spare time. It is a choice, rather than an affliction.

In an age in which fabulousness is too often mistaken for gravitas, we must be vigilant. Know the difference between philosophers and blowhards, between Soren Kierkegaard and Susan Sarandon. Know your celebutards.

In this book, you will find subjects familiar to readers of my column in the New York Post (Hillary, Paris), and also those who’ve lately leaped onto the national radar by demonstrating an allergic reaction to ordinary moral sense (Laurie David, the mansion-dwelling, SUV hating, ex-wife of Larry.)

Now, ladies and gentlemen, we have a winner! At no time since the creation of the celebustocracy has the condition been more evident, more frightening, or more psychically painful than in the case of that grandiose mental midget, the reigning King of the Celebutards, the actor Sean Penn.

Heh! :D

Shawnee123 01-31-2009 11:45 AM

So celebutards are just like Dwellars, only with more notoriety.

TheMercenary 01-31-2009 11:59 AM

Classic, they forgot Huffington too. :lol2:

TheMercenary 01-31-2009 06:33 PM

And then there was Jessica Alba.

Let's not forget Hassleback.

Urbane Guerrilla 02-01-2009 09:33 PM

Moneyed and vapid... like they said in The Green Mile, "That's a bad combination."

Poor Paris Hilton. She probably doesn't know to this day how revealing her, uh, book was. Nor how unflattering. It shows within any two pages selected at random that here is a person demonstrating in black and white that her intellectual development and her ability at self expression came grinding to a halt at about fifteen.

Aliantha 02-01-2009 09:36 PM

You read a book written by Paris Hilton???? :eek:

Urbane Guerrilla 02-01-2009 09:47 PM

Two consecutive pages of it, yeah. The rest would have been the same -- and where would I have gone to get that hour of my lifespan returned to me? Unlike dear Paris, I ain't that stupid. I never even found out if it went on the remainder tables.

Aliantha 02-01-2009 09:50 PM

But what were you doing with it? Did you go out and buy it or what? lol I can't think of anyone who'd do such a thing...unless it had pictures maybe, but even then, you can get cheaper and better porn elsewhere.

Urbane Guerrilla 02-01-2009 10:58 PM

Confessions of an Heiress, if I remember. Definitely not literature for the ages, and the title was maybe the most suggestive thing about it. Yeah, pictures, and big ones. Of course I didn't buy the thing, not when there's an entire Barnes & Noble surrounding me! There it was on the table; I opened a copy at random, and saw about what I expected to see. Even if P.H. had ghostwriter help -- I feel sorry for the ghostwriter trying to make something worth the time out of that material -- nothing could relieve the vapidity of P.H.'s writing.

Rule*34 does have a lot of good porn -- and all the Photoshopped images of Paris Hilton a strong stomach could take -- but Sturgeon's Law applies there as much as elsewhere, and all the more for the Ten-Percent Rule of Pornography: that for any given viewer, only a tenth of what's there will be hawwwwwt.

Aliantha 02-01-2009 11:04 PM

lol...well at least my impression of you is not totally shot now.

It took you two hours to read two pages by Paris Hilton? lol C'mon!

Urbane Guerrilla 02-08-2009 06:04 PM

No, dear Merc: it would have taken me maybe an hour to read the entire coffeetable book and admire the pictures. Maybe another hour or two to epoxy every page to its neighbors, urethane-finish the whole thing, and install legs to make an end-table.

Creative cabinetry might be cool; but failing that, I'd rather spend the time handmaking riveted chainmail. That at least would have been part of a much more rewarding hobby than reading vape-o-lit. There's a pretty high tedium factor in mailmaking. Tends to get me in the upper back too.

Let's not forget all the clowns like Mike Farrell who think Mumia should be set free. These guys are scary st00pid.

Urbane Guerrilla 02-18-2009 11:23 PM

Paris Hilton has recently been videorecorded rappin'... in front of Snoop Dog.

If Snoop let her do that where a bunch of people could see, maybe he doesn't like Paris Hilton very much.

Sounds an awful lot like a lot politicians and CEOs to me.

Shawnee123 02-20-2009 06:06 PM

Sounds like a couple dwellars as well. :D

Eh hem - see post #1

DanaC 02-21-2009 07:18 AM

I like Susan Sarandon...

sugarpop 02-22-2009 12:07 AM

Well, as someone who actually worked in the entertainment industry in Hollywood for 10 years, I happen to like most actors and industry people. They are fun to be around, most of them are wicked smart, and most of them are pretty enlightened. I miss LA. *sniff*

So is a celebuturd a celebrity whose public positions you disagree with?

capnhowdy 02-22-2009 01:07 PM

The missionary position is the easiest to conceal in public.

Or maybe her sitting in your lap with her back to you.... yeah... that's it.

Griff 02-22-2009 03:06 PM

Bravo!

Nope, not at all. There are plenty on both sides.
Feel free to add some of your nominations here - or not.

Not quite as subtle as one might hope.

Urbane Guerrilla 02-23-2009 07:44 PM

Aw come on, Rich. A celebuturd is really rich, thus making for really high profile, and as full of shit as a manure bag. That's a celebuturd.

But one might waive "really rich" for such high-profile examples of -tardliness as Helen Thomas' "so-called terrorists" fatuity. What a headshaker that was. And the poor biddy is still saying she's right?!

I have to admit that was a LOL moment. I think she is getting dementia. She certainly earned every name she has been called, I have to give her that. Including the Wicked Witch.
