First of all, she's buying for two people. No one buys two brands for themselves.

She's got halls in her hand with the shaken up soda. At least it's not beer.

It's also a paparazzi pic. Fuck those people.

She was also a mess around that time. And rumor has it she did some entertainment work in the middle east for awhile after.

But i feel like pics like this and ben Affleck sighing might be them being annoyed as fuck at people taking their picture 24/7. I def don't want my picture taken when I'm coming out of a store at any time.

Also, I laughed and sent this to a friend so they could laugh too.

The paparazzai are among the scum of the earth.

Bottom feeding leeches

Yea, I can't count the number of days I would be embarrassed to be photographed in public. Some days are just rough, you don't want to get ready but can pretty much anonymously go out with messy hair and wearing the clothes you wore to bed.

While from their perspective I absolutely wouldn't want it, from my perspective this type of thing is the only thing that humanizes celebrities. I tend to assume all celebrities are huge pieces of shit because their wealth insultes them from consequence. Pictures like those two, and the video of Tobey Mcguire telling people to get out of the road are the only photos or videos ive seen of these people that makes me have any respect for them at all. It makes them seem real, as though they have problems too, and in these cases they're generally justified. Then you have videos or audio like tom cruise freaking the fuck out at that dude and you realise that you are 100% right about 95% of celebrities, they're a waste of fucking space.

Edit: evidently this has happened multiple times. Dunno about the covid situation, but screaming at people isn't how you handle things as an adult.

That audio of Tom Cruise yelling at the guy for ignoring COVID safety standards and refusing to mask on set for Mission Impossible right at the peak of the pandemic where any outbreak would shut down production?

He was kinda in the right for that one.

Bring up his scientology or Oprah interview.

Nah, im not finding it because google is only pulling up that(i guess that news mustve broke and i missed it? I don't follow celebrities) but it was audio of him screaming at an intern for walking on set. It was just a diva moment. But yeah, tom cruise has a bunch of issues but none hit me as viscerally as him screaming at people who dont deserve it. And even in the covid shit, thats no excuse for screaming. He's a professional, he needs to act like it. Tell the guy "either mask up, or you're fired. This isn't a discussion" and thats all you have to do. Screaming like you're a 2 year old who just figured out voice modulation is fucking childish no matter the situation.

Dudes like, what, 50?

Entertaiment? Like, uh, what does this mean

Three people. There's a third carton of what appears to be Marlboro Reds in the back.

[–] Pelicanen@sopuli.xyz 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

That's just the lid for the carton, it's red and white.

[–] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Fair enough, I thought the white part was a a carton of lights/ silvers because of the shadow.

[–] Pelicanen@sopuli.xyz 3 points 1 week ago

Had the same thought myself until I compared the thicknesses of the cartons, then I noticed the little ceiling on the Marlboro logo on the short side.

[–] someguy3@lemmy.world 11 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Fine except the heavy smoking?

[–] lowered_lifted@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 1 week ago (2 children)

God I wish I had a parliament right now lol marbs are mid but yeah the p is a great drunk cig. Haven't smoked for like 12 years but you never stop wanting them

[–] Rai@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

You can hide bumps of coke in the recessed filters!

[–] remotelove@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I usually just hide them in a nostril.

THAT’S for LATER

When I lost my job I switched from my $8-$9 pack beloved camel blue 99s to Marlboro Black 100s. $4 per pack at Sheetz with coupon. They are not nearly as good and stain my fingers like I haven't washed my hands in days. Gotta be worse for me. I haven't switched back even though I got an even better job because paying that much for smokes is just stupid.

And yeah I travel a lot and know I have some of the lowest prices around. I always stock up before a trip.

[–] jagungal@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

Wow. I'm not a smoker so I didn't realise how cheap it was overseas. Accorfing to numbeo a pack of 20 Marlborough Reds costs about $30 US (according to my smoker friends it's about $50 AU depending on where you go). It's created a very lucrative black market in tobacco.

[–] prettybunnys@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 week ago

Here in the USA there’s been a lucrative cigarette black market for years thanks to states taxing them differently.

Folks going to Virginia from DC / MD would often take orders from friends.

Thank god I don’t smoke anymore.
