Idiot Parent

sjp_0331.jpgIdiot Parent: A very stupid person with kid(s) liable to further compound stupidity.

Sarah Jessica Parker told reporters this weekend that her son, James Wilkie Broderick, is a staunch Barack Obama supporter. Oh yeah, did I mention that her son is five?

"He's really, truly into this election," she says of her little guy's interests. "He's come to this conclusion on his own based specifically on Barack's gender. It's that deep. He's a fan and a true supporter of Barack Obama." (Source)

Sarah, I'm totally sure that your five year old son is not only conscious of the intricacies of the American political system, but able to form a nuanced opinion based on the current partisan landscape. But you know, you might want to keep that shit to yourself or else people might start thinking you're some kind of deluded Hollywood idiot parent who thinks her kid shits out gold doubloons. Which are Spanish in origin, but I probably don't need to tell little James Wilkie that.

I mean, she said he came to that conclusion based totally on Barack's gender....? As in because he's a boy and Barack's a boy too, as opposed to Hillary? It kind of sounds like she's having a laugh about it and making fun of her kid to me.

Hey Grace, maybe you should head over to US Weekly for some humorless, non-biased celebrity commentary. Sounds right up your alley.


Grace said:

Hey Stacey, considering all the unbelievably stupid things celebrities say every single day, there is plenty of fodder for making fun of them without pretending totally acceptable statements are somehow incredibly retarded. It'd be a lot funnier, too.

Amen, Grace.

Grace, why don't you go eat a dick and quit your bitching.

Im the proud Mom of a five year old who I think the sun rises and sets on. BUT I will be lucky if he can pass kindergarten. People need to realize your kids limitations. Its fine to boast but this is a little out of any five year old's leaugue. BTW Grace if you don't like it here then just go away.

You're a bunch of ninnies. Not you, Grace. The rest of you morons clearly don't understand sarcasm. SJP is making a JOKE. But she didn't use enough swear words, I guess, for you to pick up on it. Read the quote again. Apply brain function. Appreciate tone that isn't established by references to anatomy or scatology. Then go cry yourself to sleep.

It was soo fucking subtle I must have missed it. Now excuse me I have to go listen to some fart/poo jokes make fun of some boobies/penises and then cry myself to sleep on my tear stained pillow.

Grace is absolutely right, and I for one am impressed that SJP delivers that most subtle of humour, sarcasm.

It's just a pity it's lost on the writer of this entry.

Perhaps the next entry in 'webster's is my bitch' should be:

Irony: the use of words to express something other than and especially the opposite of the literal meaning

I think it's odd that Stacey sort of attacked Grace for a pretty innocuous (and correct)comment. I mean, it is startling that SJP was capable of such nuanced irony, but jeez Stacey...not sure that berating your readers is a good idea.


Anna said:

Yikes! SJP was clearly taking the piss, and Grace simply (and politely) stated the obvious. For her to have been attacked like that is inexcusable.

Stacey, you suck.
