tegeltkavä + Madge, get a life

See, kuidas suhtleme nt. FBs ja Twitteris n.ö. vabal ajal on üks asi ja mulle isegi meeldib, kuidas mõni oskab leida eriti nutikaid lühendeid ja sõnavigureid ning suurtähtede ja kirjavahemärkide puudumine mind selles kontekstis pöördesse ei aja, aga ... kui ma saan tööasju puudutava e-kirja, mis on samas stiilis "valmis visatud", siis ma küll kortsutan kulmu natuke. Ja teen oma veidras peas ühte kasti linnukese.

On totally another note - Benedict Cumberbatch and his maybe-maybe-maybe pregnant fiancee have won the internet. On every gossip-site there are tons of comments under any random Cumby-post. How has that happened? He beats Brangelina and Kim Kardashian, comments-wise. And on these same sites we find poor Madonna wrapping dead celebrities into black rubber stripes claiming them to be her fellow Rebel Hearts. Whatever that means. Number of comments? Too small to notice. I feel sorry for Madge. The woman is old enough to be my mother, but does not seem to have a clue how to sell herself at that age. I get her desire to be controversial, edgy, relevant etc., but to be honest - without at least a half-descent album she does not stand a chance. And the songs that "leaked", well ... they caused probably as much fuss as U2's latest forced download on iTunes. If that. She already is a pop icon, no need to make people forget that with her present-day awful PR.
