Eminem's mom just wants a relationship with her son...

December 14, 2000 8:01 AM

Eminem's mom just wants a relationship with her son... you know, so that she can sell more CD's. "An Open Letter To My Son" retails for about $6.95. Maybe she, and Nancy Aniston can start a little club - "Riding On The Coattails Of My Child's Fame."

wah-wah-wah.
Nice flash work though, like the spinning gradient-filled balls.

I liked the flash as well - it is a great look site, but the subject matter must have therapists around the world cheering, because as long as parents like this exist, there will be offspring in desperate need of therapy.

"main page" and "skip movie", although they're two different links, both go to the same page. sillyness.

I was being sarcastic, but maybe you were too. I really don't know how much theapy would be needed for Eminem. Aniston? Well, she's fucking Brad Bitt, what's with the whining? I mean, I'd take her place anyday.

err. Pitt.

Am I reading this correctly (i.e., as a declaration of love for Brad Pitt?). Not that there's anything wrong with that.

I'd take Brad Pitt's place anyday.

I saw Brad Pitt and Aniston a while back in San Francisco. Neither of them are as attractive as they appear on television - trust me, you don't really want to trade places with either of them.

Hmm.. well, nothing is really as nice is it is real, except for Jeremy Irons. Ahhhhh.... Jeremy, yes. And rcade, is there any other way to read that? And, no, there isn't anything wrong with that.

That link was vile. Putrid. A vapid strain of psychological warfare complete with drum loop. Blarg.

'Brad Bitt' sounds like a pornstar name.

So does 'Brad Pitt'.

Can't you see that she's just trying to make sense out of this situation? You all should be more respectful. Ixnay on the very suggestion that she would do this for the MONEY!

How the hell did Brad Pitt manage to win People's Sexiest Man Alive this year? He didn't do a damn thing worth seeing all year, did he?

I tell ya, it shoulda been Russell Crowe. (*swoon*. Damn, he's shorter than me, though. Gah! I hate that...)

But I guess this is the year for botched elections, eh?

Well, it seems obvious to me.

Tiaka and Kindall should hook up, and one can pretend the other's Aniston, and one can pretend the other's Pitt.

Whichever they prefer. :-)

Nah, I doubt that would work. I always pictured myself as a woman trapped inside a man's body. Only, I wouldn't become a cum-eating whore like ohh-so-many. I'd probobly want to be a lesbian. HAHAHA!

hooooookay tiaka.

uh..... was that a joke? I have a dry sense of humor, so I don't think that subtlety is lost on me, but this????

That was a pretty Savage remark, cC.

savage how?

And why is Savage capitalised? Am I missing something?

Sorry, I figured you were ripping off Dan Savage's "Savage Love" column from a couple of weeks ago.
posted by harmful at 1:47 PM on December 14, 2000

Isn't there something incredibly sexy about a woman who now only is your friend, but you know what?
posted by tiaka at 1:52 PM on December 14, 2000

Savage which-now? :-)

I don't read the column, I honestly don't even know where to find it (though the name does sound familiar, so I've probably encountered a "Dan Savage" at some point). At least, I don't think I do. Maybe he's figured out a way to transmit it to my bedroom at night for subliminal consumption, but I'm pretty sure the tinfoil blocks that out.

The Onion has his latest, but apparently no archives of his columns. Substitute Britney for Jennifer, and the "let's pretend" line was pretty close to some advice he gave a few weeks ago.

SF Weekly has some archives of Dan Savage's columns.
