And the horse she rode in on.................

There is this older drunken bleached blond nasty woman who is the subject of hundreds of comments each day on the internet. She is a horrible person who has nasty feuds and bitter disputes and just can’t get along with anyone. Her family are basically enablers who allow her to act out this way. It is a function of her alcohol abuse or maybe just her nasty disposition. She polarizes. Some people are her partisans and other people despise her. Her name:

Kim Richards.

She is one of the Housewives on the “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” that just wrapped up their season. One of the main themes was the fact that she was an addict who was acting out and some of the women thought she needed help. Maybe rehab or an intervention. Kim went off the rails fighting this. She attacked everyone else. Her sister. Her other cast members. She pointed her boney finger and claimed the problem was everyone talking about her. That she had only one “slip” where she took her dying ex-husbands pill because she was in 100% pain because of bronchitis, pneumonia or a hernia. Pick one because she offered all them up as excuses at one time or another.

So she would deflect and attack and insist that everyone else was wrong and that she was sober and they all wanted to hurt her. That they didn't understand what she was saying. That they had their own secrets that she could reveal that would make them look a lot worse than she ever did.

It all finally blew up this season. Her dog bit her niece’s hand and sent her to the hospital for a week-long stay. After the dog had savaged a family friend who is suing her and the television production company. Kim deflected and never apologized. She blamed her niece and said she could tell the whole story but didn't want to put it out there for everyone to know. Which was bullshit. She had a dog that had bitten several other people and it savaged her niece. That was the turning point for most of her fans (It happened on a Sunday by the way. Bad shit happens on Sundays when you drink).

Originally I was a big fan of Kim Richards. I was banned from “Television Without Pity” because I posted too many comments defending her in a previous season. I thought she was getting a bad deal and that too many people were going after her when she didn’t deserve it. Not anymore. She showed me what she was all about in the way she treated people this season. Her narcissism and sense of entitlement were off the charts. And her. A Child Star.

I am generally an all or nothing guy. Good or evil. Right or Wrong. Nuance is for pussies. Once you lose me you don’t get me back. You are either for us or against us. So I am on the hate Kim Richards train. Metaphorical  hate of course. You know internet hate. Where you mock her and say nasty shit and laugh at her pretensions and troubles. Because she deserves it.

So I was noodling along on the “Previously TV” boards in the discussion about the last reunion episode and somebody mentioned that Kim was bad but she wasn't Hitler. I went “wait a minute she is definitely worse than Hitler.” I proceeded to my patented method of beating a horse to death by making comment after comment with joke after joke. It helps to be familiar with the show to understand the jokes but I liked them. For example:

“Hitler once borrowed one of Goering's pain pills because he was in 100% pain because of bronchitis, pneumonia and a hernia.

The next thing you know he invaded Poland.

And he still isn't as bad as Kim Richards.”

So these stupid jokes got a huge bunch of “likes” and people were enjoying them until the moderator posted a comment to ask that we stop with the Hitler jokes. Now why would he do that? Probably because some weak sisters complained. Lots of people liked it. Some did not. But they want to squash it. I had some good natured back and forth with him in the private message function and decided to drop it. I don’t need to get banned from another site.

Now that thread is non-stop life affirmation stories about addiction and mother problems. Boring Oprah shit to the max. I would like to protest that noise but it will not fly. I guess that is the kind of crap that they want to see over there. As rh would say it is the soap opera woman and who am I to say nay? It is really a woman's show after all.

Now the way the moderator handle it is the way to handle a dispute. You talk to the person. You don’t go into the comments on attack mode and not expect to get attacked right back. You should expect to get as good as you give. Or worse if you are not witty or funny or interesting.  As I said before you lose me then that’s that. I believe in vendetta and going to mattresses. I might forget about you and move on to other things but once we are the outs there ain't no way back. That's just the way I am and I am too old to change my evil ways.

Kim Richards has lost me. I will attack her with nasty but hopefully funny comments. I have no patience for people who want to defend her and say that it is not fair to dump on her. Sometimes it is the only thing to do.

Kim Richards got arrested this weekend for causing a commotion at the Polo Lounge where she was drunk and harassing other patrons. When she was arrested she kicked a cop. And there are still people who want to protect and enable her. Later for that shit.

Some drunken blond dumb shits deserve all the crap they get. And then some.
