Politics!
I do not believe in blogging about politics. Virtually 50% of readers are going to agree with what you have to say (Oh, you are so right!) and 50% are going to disagree with you (What kind of moron are you?)…And, this is regardless of what you say! Politics have a much lower approval rate than, say, disc dogs…So, my feeling has always been, why bother, don’t go out of your way to encourage people to dislike you, and it’s not going to do any good anyway…until now!
I just finished reading an article that reported that Jerry Seinfeld pulled out of a St Jude Children’s Research Hospital benefit because of a political disagreement with Donald Trump.
Now, I don’t give a rat’s you know what about this little political infighting between those two, what really has me upset is the reported agreement rider that Seinfeld had insisted upon to appear, “Hershey’s Almond Kisses, original Fig Newtons, and cold vegetable trays. It was further reported that Seinfeld also insisted on “NO CUSHIONED STOOLS!”
Don’t get me wrong, there is nothing particularly displeasing with Seinfeld’s requests (Well, maybe to 10% of you)…just that he had such a request.
With his long running popular television series (Seinfeld) where he was paid, I don’t know, like a billion dollars per episode, and probably makes a million dollars per episode in syndication, you’d think he could afford to get his wife, girlfriend, agent, or friend of a friend, to pick up those items for him on the way over…
I’ve probably upset 50% of you by finally blogging this opinion, but there are times when a man just has to do what he feels is right, regardless of the repercussions.
And, just for the record, if you voice your displeasure of my opinion, and then request a disc dog clinic for your club or organization, just you WAIT for my agreement rider. It’s going to make Seinfeld’s look like a whiney little boy’s in comparison. I’m really going to stick it to you or, “No soup clinic for you!!!” Now, get out of my shop…
