Who Are These People Magazine

who-are%20these_banterist.jpg

This was born from from my own personal anguish. Every time I see the magazines at checkout I feel older and hopelessly out of touch. I never know who they're talking about, or more importantly, why. It makes me not want to buy overpriced jugs of water at the supermarket anymore.

In New York City any market with more than two aisles is super.

Umm, you forgot to plug "In The Event of My Untimely Demise". Shame on you. Don't you EVER listen to Glen?

PS - I read the book and enjoyed it. :)

I'm pretty sure the Asian fellow and Labeouf are just CGI renderings.

Kim was last year's winner of the reality show, "So You Think You Can Bang a Kadashian."

I think she works at a Sonic Burger now.

I feel the same way when I don't recognize the guest host of SNL.

Dude you nailed it on the Kardashian headline. I laughed all day about that.

Just stop by tmz.com every once in a while and you'll see a lot about these people. And I am in my late thirties. Perhaps with too much time on my hands?

"Someone From Gossip Girl Squats"

Priceless!

Ha! Very funny. People famous for being famous.

Not sure if it's fair to lump an actor from two major blockbusters ("Transformers", "Indiana Jones and the Crystal Skull") and an actor from a top rated prime time show ("Heroes") with someone is most famous for a sex tape.

Still making my way through Untimely Demise, though. Good stuff.
