Famous by proxy by proxy by proxy

Being Human Distractions

My best friend is in a fight with a well known celebrity blogger. We’ll call him PH.com.

PH.com haunts the coffee shops of West Hollywood for days at a time. This is a key to his success as the paparazzi can easily find him to sell their stories and photos. Further, he has access to tips, rumors and gossip.

My best friend frequents the same coffee houses while he studies for his Ph.D. exams.

One day, noticing the stench, my friend asked PH.com why he never bathed.

Whoops. A lot of drama ensued. I would tell about the screaming, yelling, name calling, but really (wrinkling my nose) he should bathe every once and a while.

My friend says that if he was famous, PH.com would plaster his blog with nasty comments and rude pictures. But he’s not famous, so all of this drama has stayed out of blog-o-rama (until now).

I figure it this way: PH.com is only famous by proxy. And my friend is not famous but knows PH.com’s bathing habits which makes him famous by proxy. And he’s been my best friend for thirty years. I’m famous by proxy by proxy by proxy, right?

Since you know me, you can tell your friends and family that you know someone who is FAMOUS! (by proxy by proxy by proxy). I bet you’re psyched.

  • The CEO - You'll get 1% of what I get - how's that??

    No Nonsense Girl - Fame can befuddle the mind. I'd recommend a long nap.

    Heart in SF - YEA! Play time for me! :)

    BottleBlonde - The thing is that he complains about being single. I mean - I wouldn't date him! Oh, I'm happy to give you an autograph but what are boobs??
  • Could you sign my boobs now that yer famous?

    I don't consider PH a true gay man. Gay men bathe and take great pains to freshen up. PH is just a straight man with a girly voice.

    Can Claudia come out and play?
  • Wow, I'm confused!!! LOL!!!!

    Visit me, I've got a surprise for you!!! :)
  • The CEO
    It's nice to be famous, when can I expect checks to come rolling in? And I agree with Hearts, he ought to bath, he's a public nuisance.
  • Jill - PHEW! I'm raising my right pinky and thumb and rocking out, man!

    Heart in SF - Sadly, I think he bathes by proxy.

    Los Angelista - I never thought of it - but yes, he would have venum through his pores.

    Nila - He is so negative and smelly - you are absolutely right. That negativity must come from a rotting soul.

    Betty - Yes, well.... People like that can take very little of what they put out into the world.

    Squirrelly - Ah shucks. I love you too Squirrelly!
  • I'm glad enough to know claudia.
  • I know who you are talking about as well and he looks BAD bad bad. he always looks dirty and unshaven.
    he is also a total bitch to everyone else, so he should be able to take some of it back.
  • Yeah, he looks pretty stinky. It figures that someone who spews so much negativity would smell bad.
  • This post is SO funny to me. I can imagine that homeboy would be a bit malodorous. The scent of his being mean about other folks' circumstances surely reeks from his pores.
  • heart in san francisco
    He should bathe. And not by proxy.
  • Jill
    Ha! Rock by proxy! *laugh*

    Harlekwin - What a great idea! I'll have to find some great talented person to create it for me. Know any?? ;)

    Jill - Yes he does. Um, so I smell by proxy or rock by proxy?? 'Cuz, I just showered....

    Odat - 7 million? lol! Feel free to blog about my fame. I'm going to be HUGE. (Oh right, I already am huge! ;)
  • So where's my autograph? Can I blog about you now? I'm excited! Wow by proxy. Pretty soon the whole blogosphere will know you by proxy....do you know how many proxies that is!!!...lol.
    Peace
  • Jill
