New Subject Matter

I'll admit that I am one to read gossip magazine. Heck, I even watched an episode of "Gossip Girl" because I thought it would be about gossip--well interesting gossip, not gossip about a bunch of spoiled teenagers who could order drinks like martinis without getting carded.

But these magazines need new subject matter. For a few years now, it's the same cover. Some celebrity who is too skinny, anorexic. And if they aren't anorexic, they've gained too much weight. Another one has drank way too much or popped too many pills and have landed themselves in a posh rehab center. One celebrity wore a dress 40 percent better than another one.

Now I see why most normal people are turned off by these "news" updates. It's the same thing. How have I failed to see that it really isn't all that important? Or is it time that I start buying better magazines to place by the toilet?
