This is the modern version of “I was just following orders” watch out for people like this twat.
As bill hicks ver eloquently put it, I will turn my back while the struggling artist makes ends meet but it’s not as if jay Leno is exactly short on cash.
It’s rule of acquisition 109 and it refers to dignity. What are you, a hu-man?
(Dignity and an empty sack is worth the sack.)
Paraphrasing to avoid royalties is a well honored Ferengi past time my dude.
But reciting the rules incorrectly? That’ll be two strips. Obey the Grand Proxy!
A onlyfans account would be more dignified than shilling for a company responsible for climate change
That’s a comment on the video this is referencing to. And they ain’t wrong.
Shilling for the climate crisis is even worse than being a regular influencer fka blogger.

Context?
Gross, thanks.
Never meet your heroes.
I really feel that people really puts too much reverence into the words and actions of celebrities, and are disappointed when they are not the person who they appeared to be.
But, if you take a step back and actually think about it, you see these people on your screen every day, do you know who these people really are? Most of you have never met these people before in your life!
The person see on your screen in image and text form is not the actual person, but projections of the person behind the screen (a character, if you will). That’s what social media is, and that’s what all media are, you present your character to to the rest of the world and tries to sell the life of that character you made up. Of course, when the projection of the character in front of screen doesn’t match up with the person behind the character (Ellen, Cordon, Brand, now Kari Byron, etc.), of course you would feel cheated.
Maybe that’s why I’m here. I don’t want anything out of you other than to laugh at my shitty jokes, and I don’t really have anything to sell you other than some dumb movies. It’s rare to find that these days, and that’s really all there is to it.
After all, you are who you choose to be, so, I try to be someone better, someone you know that you can be proud of, and if you are still reading this, I do expect you to do your best, so I can be proud of you too.
I met Ben Heck at MRRF and he cooked me lunch. Nice humble guy that does a lot for the disabled gaming community. Now I know he’s not a huge celebrity but he’s been on TV and has had multiple shows.
Ben Heck seems cool as heck
He’s a friend of a friend of mine. He always seemed grumpy when I ran into him while the show was going. It was a grind. He’s much more chipper these days.
Yep. I think the term for it a parasocial interaction.
None of these people are our friends. They’re just people on our TV screens, or other devices. Many of them are actors and are simply acting in a way that makes them likeable. Some of them are good people, others aren’t. There’s no way of knowing based on what we see on our screens.
If something on a screen is entertaining, that’s good. You’ve been entertained, you got the product you wanted. But that in no way indicates anything about the people that created the product, good or bad.
Also if you find out that someone that makes that entertainment product is a shitty person and that negatively affects the entertainment value of the product, just find entertainment elsewhere. That is a normal and healthy way to handle it. People may characterize this to be “cancel culture” but those people are either weirdos or people in show business who have an incentive to continue this idea that the audience is somehow obligated to watch the things they put out.

LOL WHAT
Bad joke that didn’t came out quite right. Sorry.
Heh, no problem, it happens.
I do love that your username is a celebrity.
No, like all real celebrities on other social media platforms, I, actual Hollywood superstar Margot Robbie, also use my real name to promote my movies on this obscure technology forum.
After all, why would a celebrity ever lie to you about who they are?
Since I’m still definitely an idiot and love a few celebs out there still, I would be legitimately so happy if that were true and MR was a secret tech nerd.
Plot twist, it’s her mom’s account.
Hot neird mom I feel like that’s gonna be a porn category soon
Yikes. I really used to like her in Mythbusters.
Is it ok if i report this video for disinformation on youtube?
I mean you may as well
A girl has to eat, but fuck…
Her net worth is north of $1.5 million. She doesn’t need the work to eat.
$1.5M is a comically low net worth for someone in her position with the career she had. Imagine hosting the largest show on a network like Discovery for more than a decade and being worth less than a regional fast food chain owner. Your comment put this whole thing into a different perspective to me.
That seems really low for even a minor celebrity. But I imagine there’s some royalty from the show that will keep coming over the next few years.
I work in tech and between my wife & I, our networth is over $3MM. We’re in our 40s. A big chunk of that is in our house, which we paid much less for and it has appreciated over the last 5 years. This increase in networth due to the house we live in does nothing to improve our day-to-day life, it just makes property taxes higher. I absolutely still need to work to be able to put food on the table. I mean, I can probably afford to not work for a year or so, but if I live until 80+, I still have 40 years of expenses that I need to save up for. so I will need to keep working. There are also some nice things that I want to buy, like a solar panel system, which should help us lower our expenses over the longer term.
Can’t wait for her child to grow up and realize their mother shilled for Big Oil and they will suffer more than previous generations thanks to her.
Well that’s a shame
