What a fucking self-absorbed moron. Yes, I’m talking
about good ol’ Scott Stapp, the jesus figure/vocalist
from Creed. I saw him tonight on the Celebrity Poker
Challenge and my blood pressure is up a couple of
points.
First of all, he knows nothing about poker. That’s fine
and dandy although I probably wouldn’t agree to be in a
tournament. But he gets pissed off at the other players
when the only incompetent one at the table is him. For
Christ’s sake, you aren’t even a good singer but at
least you have a way to pay your bills, I suppose. Given
a job that required any sort of critical thinking, you
would be on the unemployment line so fast it would make
your head spin.
Whatever, smarts and poker skills aren’t that important
in the life of a millionare rock star. BUt at least have
the decency to not cop some pissy juvenile attitude just
because your fucking pair didn’t beat the person with
two pairs. There are too many other people on the show
who, even when they suck, are able to joke about
themselves. You wouldn’t even consider making fun of
yourself though. It must be tough to live in the world
with all those other people when you just know how
awesome you are.
There, I just had to get that out. Feelin much better
now.
NonononoNO! For drama with pokers, nothing beats the King Edward II-style. First, you heat the poker until red-hot. Then, have the intended victim face away from you and bend over. Then - well, you get the idea. :eek:
I only wish I could get in a no-limit game with Stapp. In a series that showcased terrible celebrity players he was the worst. A couple of decent players could set Stapp back so far he would have to play bars in Des Moines for his pocket money. Can’t say I would have a problem with that.
My favorite part was how shocked he seemed that his Ace and Jack lost to a pair of 3’s. He was either drunk, high, or just an all-around dumbass. My money’s on the latter.
