Title: My 2 cents Worth.
Post by Qaster Qof Qeverything Q42 on May 8^th, 2008, 2:44pm

Hello Everybody. (Hello Doctor Nick)

I was just around a bit, and I realized something. Something big. It's hard to explain, but here is my idea. I'll be posting little bits along the ages. Talk. (wow, we never knew you new anything , Doctor Nick!)

Well, first I'd like to talk about the Paris Hilton Paradox . She's famous because, shes rich, and she can't do much. But she is still famous, because she is. and the more you see of her, the more famous she becomes. Even if you try to stop her, that gets on the mews, and she gets even more fame. So much for working to get respect.

Since when does being famous is equal to being respected ? To be famous ( or infamous ) is easy, it's much harder to earn respect. Even when we feel we deserve it, we still would have to earn it.

Because I know a flunkie, and he was pushing the 1 cent he was bought for. I dont think Paris is any better. I also compared her to the 2bits of string and a origami paper crane i traded for my friend.

This is very big factor but i don't think the way you said . It's something other than this which made her so famous. As my philosophy speaks.
