They make us feel superior

These two beautiful and sexy ladies can remind you of why some equally beautiful and sexy women in revolutionary France had their heads cut off. They seem totally useless! However, we all make it possible for them to thrive. We watch them so we can feel better and more valuable to society. But, these ladies must have their uses, or else why would they be able to live such a high and pampered lifestyle? Why would we otherwise watch them? They've been "famous" for more than 15 minutes. In a recent episode, mother and daughter flew down to Miami in a large private jet to celebrate daughter Brittny's birthday. Who paid for the airplane? A whole group of Brittny's friend came down. So did the mother's personal makeup artist. Who paid for him? The two ladies had to make an appearance at some restaurant/club so that all of Brittny's friends could stay for free. Would the rest of us be charged extra to cover the costs to the hotel? They are very entertaining, but certainly not on purpose. The gorgeous daughter has the attention span of a flea Except for a strong desire to wiggle herself and show her terrific figure, and her insatiable desire for her boyfriend, she has absolutely no interest in anything but clothes, makeup and parties. The strongest feature of her otherwise bland personality is her strong sense of personal entitlement. She expects everything and wants to pay nothing. How can you not just love a person like that? And as for Mama, she keeps the people in the beauty business fully employed. Whoever pays for that stuff, it does keep the economy moving! No one ever says a kind word about them on camera. All their employees constantly slam them. No one has the slightest respect for them. Can they possibly be watching their own show? So, why do we?
