What Am I For?

Schadenfreude-filter: A judge has sentenced a 'shocked and tearful' Paris Hilton to 45 days in jail. She was convicted for driving her Bentley on a suspended license and speeding (all with no headlights on). Defending herself, she made this statement to the court: "I'm very sorry and from now on I'm going to pay complete attention to everything. I'm sorry and I did not do it on purpose at all..." I guess she must've completely forgotten about that little drunk driving violation she incurred a few months ago. Too bad the judge didn't forget the difference between days and years. Be prepared for a remake of 'Prison Girls'.

I feel neither joy nor pity. I just want her to go away.

now if they only busted Lindsay Lohan and she'd get sent to the same residential facility it'd be the ultimate women-in-prison fantasy -- where's Roger Corman when you need him?

"I'm very sorry and from now on I'm going to pay complete attention to everything."

Sounds exhausting.

I predict she will unleash a rap album post-release.

OK, I should've put this on MeTa.

Now there's a reality show I might watch.

Jesus, they're going to kill her.

It's not the ultimate women in prison fantasy setup (surely this is a reality TV show, right?) until Rosie shows up.

She's going to be even more famous for nothing for this. A perfect metaphor for American culture these days.

The judge's ruling excluded her from paying to serve time in a jail of her choice, as some are allowed.

Barbaric.

Yep, that's right...

Anyone who comments in this thread is a witless bloodsucker. Turn off the computer, go for a walk, and weep for your lives. This includes myself. Goodbye.

I stole a towel and couple of those itsy-bitsy soaps from a Hilton years ago.
She feels bitter, betrayed.
This is all my fault.

she'd better pray that they'll "be hospitable."

And not in the good way.

First Joe Francis, now Paris Hilton, if K-Fed goes to jail I'll really start wondering about that strange old lamp that I bought at the flea market a few months back...

and yes, in hindsight, I really should've asked for more wishes.
