Is that Rat Tart?

Disgusting!

And so is this story!

Stewart to Marry 'Laguna Beach' Star

Not so much the marrying part, but WHY THE FUCK ARE KIDS ON A PSEUDO REALITY SHOW ABOUT OVER PRIVILEGED TEENS FAMOUS ENOUGH TO WARRANT COVERAGE LIKE THIS!?!?!?!?!?

At least cradle-robber Kim Stewart has done some modeling, so it is with a grimace and sigh that I acknowledge her "fame", but this Laguna Beach show has really flipped my lid. The degeneration of The Real World was bad enough, merely giving attractive college students a platform to make the TV audience feel bad about their image, drink too much, be promiscuous, and generally over-dramaticize EVERY FUCKING SITUATION IN THEIR LIVES. But now MTV has done the same thing with HIGH SCHOOL KIDS!! Makes me sick, and I haven't even watched the show.

I didn't start the day angry like this. I was wondering if I had anything to blog about today, stumbled across this story, and out came a rant. It's high time MTV got added to the Corporate Evil Empire.*
