This video is wrong on so many levels that it made me angry just watching it (poss NSFW for rude words?)

Some folks need a severe lesson in priorities and even just on a superficial level, good grace.

Ooh, I need a cup of tea.

PS Part of me hopes it's some sort of viral ad campaign and that I've been suckered in... Please tell me it is... [Angst]

O_O

The brother's a piece of work as well. And man, that father needs to grow a spine.

Fathers like that result in daughters like that. In a sense, the man brought it on himself.

It was a Domino's Pizza commerical, supposedly, though I don't see how it would make me want pizza.

C'mon, of course this was faked. It's no more real than that "bride cuts off her own hair" video making the rounds.

Mackenzieheartsu - Known at first as the Spoiled Rich Girl, she became famous in early January 2006 through a video purportedly taken by her brother in which she reacts to receiving a red Saab convertible for her birthday by whining and complaining that she had wanted a blue one. She then posted a series of responses in which she eventually gets a blue car and announces she's selling the red one on eBay for $9.99, at which point it was revealed the whole series was a staged promotion for a special Domino's Pizza offer.

That list of internet phenomena page is pretty cool.

If you REALLY want to see spoiled rich girls, just watch that 'My Super Sweet 16' show.

Posted by Tara (Member # 10030) on :

There was a commercial with this same situation in it, but it was totally different.

A friend's son was at the recent 'My Super Sweet 16' in Virginia Beach. I asked him if the girl (amberly) is really that ditzy etc - he said she was hamming it up...

...I point and laugh. And then continue to rejoice in my own mediocrity.

I join you in laughing.

However, the sad thing is that this very situation came up with an old classmate. On her birthday, her family bought her a brand new pink car - a $20,000 car, a really good brand I can't remember. Two months later, she was crying to her friends and ranting about how she hated it because she saw a much better, newer car at a local auto show and that she thoguht her father was being mean.

Oh, and she was upset when she got the car but no party or cake.

*sighs*

I mean, would you want a pink car?

Posted by SteveRogers (Member # 7130) on :

No. I'd rather have a car painted like the one in The Muppet Movie.

I like how the brother keeps saying the camera's off.

I would take a sledge hammer to the car and say "drive it now!"
