In which Sarah proves herself to be utterly heartless in matters concerning 'celebrities'

This probably makes me a horrible person, but it looks like someone finally added chlorine to the gene pool. The only thing Anna Nicole Smith's death is provoking in me is a wish to see Paris Hilton and Britney Spears battle it out for the title of Blonde White Trash Bimbo Queen of Hollywood. My money's on Spears - she looks somewhat more human than Hilton, as Hilton is all bones and angles and camel toe, she's actually earned her own money instead of inheriting it all from daddy, and while she has no common sense, Hilton has no sense at all. Plus, she didn't start that stupid fad of carrying small dogs around in purses instead of making them *gasp, shock horror!* WALK.

First off, the return of Meg!demon made me happy. Hell, recurring characters in general make me happy. Now where's Missouri, damnit? I want my dose of sane, no-nonsense awesomeness! (And she's, like, the first out of three black characters on the show, the only woman out of the three, and the others were an insane hunter and a government agent, and they lack the awesomeness that Missouri brings to the show. I want her back! Missouri/Ellie OTP damnit!)

And am I the only person who preferred demon-possessed Sam to his normal self? There is altogether too much angsting and whining about how he's meant for some horrible destiny and he can't do anything to fight it, even though he's been trained to kill just about everything supernatural in existence and he's got his older brother watching his back and constantly telling him that he's not a killer and such. No, Sam must brood, and then he must turn and rag on Dean for not being emotionally open enough to brood along with him. I'm sorry, but Dean brooding would probably make him look constipated. Dean may be fucked up, but he's an emotionally flexible fucked up. He has no problem covering up what's bothering him, and he's damn good at it, and if he brooded all the time like Sam did nothing would get done at all except maybe a few thousand fangirl orgasms. Dean is not an angst muffin like Roxas Sam, damnit.

Wow, that went off on a tangent. Oops?

No you are not alone. I really like "evil Sam".

I was surprised to find out she'd died so young, but I can't say I was touched or sad. I read an article about it, in which I think they were really callous and flippant about the whole thing and I don't think that was very nice because someone probably loves her somewhere, but still... that kind of says something about her, and about our stupid media culture. They can't be generous to her even when she's dead. There always has to be a scapegoat.

I will make no judgement call on her. I don't think she was as bad as she was made out to be, but then again, her death is no "tragedy" either... the death of young people, who do what they do and get by in life, and make their decisions good and bad, and live with them, and are perhaps not very smart, and at any rate don't give anything greater to society at large (which is approximately my judgement of Anna Nicole Smith)... well, it's too bad, but it happens. Happens every damn day. It's a matter for the loved ones to mourn and get through, not for everyone to make fun of. But I'm not going to cry over her like I did for Steve Irwin, who was risking his life daily to fight an uphill battle for the planet and animals and yes, the human race, all of which he wasn't ashamed to blatantly adore even if he got constant criticism for it.

That said, I still don't think it was appropriate for the news to put a vaguely tongue-in-cheek, smarmy article about her on the internet, when her body's barely cold and they don't even know what killed her yet. But then again, when has mass media ever been anything but in poor taste?

Yay I love how I typo and then LJ doesn't let you edit... that first sentence in the second paragraph is supposed to be "I will make no damning judgement call on her." I didn't like her, if it comes to that, but then I knew very little about her, and I can't say I disliked her either. I'm not sorry she's dead... but I'm not going to gloat over it like the news.

Anyway, I basically (along with adding my ten cents) meant that yeah I hear you, people are boo-hooing and it's silly.

The only thing that fazes me about this whole Anna Nicole thing is that there are now three guys fighting for paternity rights to her 5-month-old daughter, and I'm almost willing to bet that none of them are in it because they want to be a good daddy.
