Courtney Love
 
I thought she looked wasted during the Pam Anderson roast - turns out I was right.

LOS ANGELES - Courtney Love tearfully admitted using drugs in violation of her probation terms Friday. The rocker-actress was ordered into a 28-day drug treatment program by a judge who said he had wanted to put her in jail.

“I think that you need to hit rock bottom before you make a decision about what you’re going to do in the future,” Superior Court Judge Rand Rubin told the sobbing Love.

At a red carpet event this month, Love said: “I’m clean and sober for over a year and no one seems to care! They’re like, ’Oh, her dramatic weight gain.’ So, stop making fun of me!”

At least we know it's not coke.

They're still spending cash on advertising if they did. But I think they're still around (expanded to Dallas a couple of years ago and poached a lot of people there). http://www.fr.com/

I think the dividing line is if you ever have any sort of sex (broadly defined) while you are both physically present in the same room. And, just so we're clear (you know who you are!), both parties are aware of the sex.

You only thought she looked wasted, Sherlock? The part where she fell and tackled Pam didn't push it over to certainty for you? How about the way she slouched and rolled around on the couch and did that thing where she lifted one leg up practically over her head when she laughed?

Actually, I like the name Sebastian, and my wife even seemed to think that it would be a good name for a son. But I’ve ruined it. I can never use it. I’d have a child who reminded me of myself...

BTW, what’s a “stiffer?” I tip 15% for bad service, 20% for good.
Why do you do that? Don't wait staff at inexpensive restaurants who provide excellent service deserve a bigger tip than the surly waiter at Arroyo Chop House*?

I tip somewhere between $4-$15 for a two person meal, depending on a lot of things; the size of the check is one factor, but not the only one.

*I've never had a bad waiter at Arroyo; I was just trying to think of an expensive restaurant.

OMG this is so far from the truth as to be laughable. I dislike going to restaurants, mostly because of the exorbitant mark-up on everything and the time suck. And this was BEFORE I became a father.

I don't think the theme of my earlier post (tipping far less than most people do at pricier restaurants) is consistent with your interpretation of my supposed intended sub-text.

Furthermore the NYC crew here (probably the LA crew too) would laugh at the notion that Arroyo Chop House is a "fancy restaurant." In the world of places to which I've been more than once, it's at the pricier end. But many people here would probably call it "intermediate"

Finally, the fact that I like RT, and RT likes you, does not preclude me from thinking that you are a dumbass.

And how fucking stupid is she to go on a tv show wasted while on probation for drug stuff? This is beyond a Wyland. It's a fucking Daniel Baldwin move.

This was just my way of saying "2." - to Sebby's buddies (as far as I feel, and what my wife has expressed to me). Everyone else's mileage may vary.

And swipe or no swipe on this old school Flame Friday, I do not think that you are a dumbass. Your posts lately have been fantastique. I'm converting to fringeyism.

But she SAID she was CLEAN and SOBER.
And whoever made the comment about "if you're clean and sober honey, you have other really big problems" something like that.
Oh yeah, and flashing her crotch to the crowd and the slurred speech could have been a clue.

Remind me if we are ever going to eat out somewhere nice that we go someplace you have not eaten at before. The top end of your tip range barely approaches acceptable for a meal at a moderately high priced restaurant. Hell, I left a $15 tip on a bill just under 60 bucks last night and didn't think it was too much.

I give everyone 20% b/c it's easy to calculate (move the decimal point to the left and double) and I'm too lazy (and, usually, drunk) for math after a big meal. I'll give more if the service is exceptional.

Alas, they would only be big enough (and possibly not even quite big enough) in the belly area. Or are arms that look like sausages bursting out of the skin non-frumpy?
