Paris Hilton made a public statement today saying that she’s been reflecting on her love life and realizes that she has always refused to date any man who was not physically attractive. She says she now realizes this was a mistake and vows to amend her ways in the future.

If some other person were saying this, we could all hope that it was a sign of growing maturity and a developing awareness that people can have inner qualities that are not reflected by their outer appearance. In Paris Hilton’s case, on the other hand, I think we can assume she’s now abandoned all standards and is willing to have sex with anyone.

This cannot be but good news for those of us who were looking at the humanzee thread in GD as a potential expansion of the dating pool.

[Here’s](http://www.webindia123.com/news/showdetails.asp?id=48697&cat=World) a link.

> It’s all about how nice they are. At this point, I want to find a guy who’s right for me. I want someone who’s going to treat me well and love me. […] I’d rather have someone with a good heart than some good-looking idiot with no brain, because looks fade and I know that.

Words fail me. :rolleyes:

And [here’s](http://au.i1.yimg.com/australianidol.aunz.yimg.com/contestants/robert_mills_bio.gif) the guy the news report says she’s “enjoying the company of.” If what she says is true, I think [this](http://www.muppetcentral.com/_images/sesame/cookie_monster.jpg) is closer to her ideal guy. Nice? Check! Good heart? Check!

Well then, where the hell do I sign up? Mature sometimes (30 years of age), stable (employed full time), current with the hotel industry, willing to move to New York or Beverly Hills or wherever :rolleyes: , not above hooking up for a green card 🙂

Also, not a humanzee, and I hope my heart is good for at least 20 more years.

Also note: Quite willing to sign a pre-nup that leaves me with only 1 million USD and 3k per month support [I think that’s good for my current lifestyle] 🆒

On preview, Animal is the coolest muppet ever.

Wait, wait, wait. She was already dating Rick Solomon. Now she’s going to date _ugly people_? :dubious: Who? Gary Shandling?

According to news reports, Gary Coleman heard of her feelings and approached her at an LA nightspot. His icebreaker was, “Hey Paris, what would you say to a little fuck?” She replied, “Hello, you little fuck.” 😛

For some wierd reason, I saw the title and assumed she was going to be less of a attention-hungry slut. I guess I’ll go back to waiting for the leopard to change it’s spots.

I’ve been pondering this (along with the mysteries of the universe) lately: Why is paris Hilton so cute?

I suggest she start with Woody Allen, Bud Selig, and Marv Albert.

Then we can up the pain until she goes back to her regularly scheduled shallowness already in progress.

Rick Solomon is far from ugly. While he’s not what I’d normally be interested in, he’s purty.

And in other news, the sun did _not_ set in the East! :rolleyes:

Look. You want to lower your standards regarding bedmates, fine. Heck, you want to sleep with half the frickin’ city, fine. It’s your life. But don’t make a goddam announcement about it, all right?

Jeeziz, WHAT is she famous for, now?? Sleeping around and releasing a bunch of smutty videos? What is this, 1981?

She wants us to take her seriously when, in a few months, she marries a 92 year old French billionare on life support. She doesn’t want to make the same mistake that Anna Nicole Smith did when she failed to announce that she’s in it for love alone, not wealth or physical attractiveness. We all recall how much less seriously we took her after she married that 80+ year old Texas billionaire without holding a press conference first. :rolleyes:

Why on earth would she marry a billionaire? She’s got the financial independance to whore it around with the five-o’clock-shadow crowd all day.

I suspect she’s just started dating ugly people because she ran out of sleazy attractive guys to sleep with and she dosen’t want to have to repeat any of them.
