Barefoot Contessa stubs her toe ...

Apropos of nothing having to do with this thread, but I don't like bare feet, so I've never wanted to watch the 1950s Barefoot Contessa movie or TV show. Fuck feet.

 

This, and is there anyone with a regular TV show that has less personality? If cardboard could cook, it would be the Barefoot Contessa. Give me Giada any day of the week, but I'm diving for the remote when this show comes on.

That said, while the PR approach seems ham-handed, I'm not judging the decision. It's her life.

 

Rex Ryan would agree.

 

And that's who I had in mind when I wrote that last post. He probably gets ten times as much requests as this fry cook does. And yet, he's accomodated hundreds of requests anyways.

 

That makes him admirable in that regard, but I don't think that means that not doing it has to be worthy of derision.

 

So it's OK to call her names because you don't like her show, but you wouldn't judge her for blowing off a dying child. Twice. OK.

 

I'll judge her for that, sure.

 

When did I say it was okay to call her names because I don't like her show?

 

I was responding to n_w's response to Double J, not you or him. Do I have to explain EVERYTHING to you guys?

 

I assume everything is about me as the default.

 

I have no earthly idea who this person is, and I'm cool with that.

 

Yeah. A a potential member of her viewing audience, I'm not fond of the quality of her work. Whether and how she chooses to contribute to charitable causes is none of my business. Maybe she has a legitimate reason to decline the request. It really is not my place to judge how she lives her life.
