When Reality Stars Compare Themselves to Jesus

If any of you have seen/heard of CMT's hit show, Party Down South, the South's answer to MTV's Jersey Shore.


If you have, then you know that the show is a drunk, hot mess.

The cast of the show are a clash of personalities, including Taylor "Lil' Bit" Wright, who I'm assuming is supposed to be Party Down South's Snooki.



Taylor is very much into her Bible and the Lord above, which is quite weird for her to be on the show that she is.

However, we DO NOT judge, because no one on this earth, including the religious and spiritual folk, is pure. And we do not throw stones in glass houses.

HOWEVER, we NEED to address one issue with this Taylor Wright.

A few weeks ago, Wright announced that she will not be returning to the show for its 3rd season.

Her reasoning: she is scared for her safety.

Living with a bunch of violent Southern drunks can be a little frightening so I don't blame her one bit.

Now, I used to write the recaps of episodes of the show for TVFishBowl.com, and have been following (majority of) the cast on Twitter.

When told by a fan that they're proud of Wright for choosing Jesus over fame and fortune (which is NOT the reasoning she gave for leaving the show), Taylor replied with "Jesus made the ultimate sacrifice.....so can I! Ily"



..............................................

Whether you yourself are religious or spiritual or not, you can ALL agree that if someone who believes in Jesus and what he did, HOW can they compare quitting a reality show to dying a horrible death for mankind?

She basically just compared herself to Jesus!

Maybe it IS best that she quit the show, because she apparently, she's LOSING HER MIND.

Po' thang.

 

Rick Perry Treated Others How He Wanted To Be Treated Apparently

Now we all know the old saying, "treat others how you want to be treated."



And that's exactly what our old friend, Rick Perry, Governor of Texas and aspiring nominee for the Republican party's 2016 Presidential election has done.

Except, he seems to not have wanted to do so!

If you haven't heard, Perry is being indicted for alleged abuse of power after he threatened to veto $2.7 million over 2 years for the public integrity unit, which is ran by Rosemary Lehmberg's office.



Lehmberg, a Democrat and the Travis County District Attorney, was arrested for a DUI in April 2013.

Perry asked the DA to resign due to this incident, and when she refused, he decided to veto the money!

It is said that Perry planned to replace Lehmberg with a Republican.

Now Mr. Perry is being indicted, and of course is UNHAPPY about such events.

He went on to say that this indictment is "politically motivated."

Well, gee, Mr. Perry, isn't that EXACTLY what your motivation was in trying to get Lehmberg to resign, and eventually replace her with a member of your OWN political party?

It's the same thing, and you're accusing others of doing EXACTLY what YOU planned to.

Treat others the way you want to be treated, Rick.

This drama may put a damper on Perry's shot as the Republican Presidential candidate, but honestly, who would want someone so blatantly dirty in office?

I'd take Chris Christie over him any day, and I cannot stand Chris Christie.

The Taxi Driver Was Drunk!

So, last weekend I went to an old lounge called, Melvyn's in the heart of Palm Springs, California.

Palm Springs is known for it's Old Hollywood flare due to all of the Old Hollywood stars hanging out there.

Melvyn's was a GREAT place. There was a live piano player who played anything from The Beatles, to Lionel Richie, to "Blurred Lines" by Robin Thicke. He even went around and introduced himself to the guests.

People from their 20s to their 80s got up and danced, very classy, to the music.

The waiters and waitresses were all dressed up.

Melvyn's is an old place where Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra would hang around for a drink. Those are just a few big names that used to frequent the joint. The place had so much history and so much life in it, I would go back every weekend if I could.

The best part were the napkins, which had Frank Sinatra's face all on them. (I'd show a picture, but I'm having technical difficulties).

Moving right along, we had a few too many drinks, and were ready to go.
We called a taxi cab to come and pick us up, and when the Prius taxi arrived, we hopped right in.

We made the normal small talk with the taxi driver, but SUDDENLY your boy is THROWN from the seat, face plants into the passenger seat, then onto the floor of the loud clanking Prius!!

This man almost RAN A STOP LIGHT! Cars honking and all!

My life was in DANGER!

I made an exaggerated "OOOMPH" sound as I hit the floor to make it known that I was thrown from my seat.

This crazy taxi driver played it off as smooth as whipped cream in hot coffee. He just continued the conversation like nothing happened.

When the light finally turned green I decided to pay more attention to this man since my life was in his hands, and that's when I noticed his slightly slurred speech.

OH HELL NO! We're slurring AND our taxi driver is too? I couldn't believe it. But we were almost home, so I just hopped right on out paid him his little tip (which he DID NOT deserve) and stumbled on inside.

Let this be a lesson for ALL of you out there:

HAVE YOUR TAXI OR UBER DRIVER PERFORM A SOBRIETY TEST IF YOU HAVE TO.

It's not safe out here anymore!

Anyway, I'm here writing this, so I made it out alive, y'all.

Take care, and call your next of kin if you have to. These taxi drivers are a joke.
