I love Paris Hilton. I know this is probably an unpopular opinion, but that’s okay.
NYLON magazine’s interview this month quoted her saying,
“I can laugh at myself. I’m in on the joke. I know what you guys think of me, and I’m going to play into it and make you laugh at the same time.”
Now the question is, is she really in on the joke? Or is she just the dumb blonde she claims producers tell her to be?
Watch out all you “baby genius kids.”
You just may be our future drunkards.
But to me there’s something “unfit” about this study that those with a high IQ are more likely to have alcohol related problems.
See, it looks like the assumption is if you’re intelligent, you must be carrying stress. And when you’re stressed, you turn to drinking for a reliever. So therefore, when you turn to popping that cap, you might as well just be grabbing the newspaper and staking out your rightful place on that curb. Because, clearly…alcohol does that to people…or should I say smart people?
My assumption was (and still is) the complete opposite. If you’ve got a high IQ, you would know right from wrong. Sure the statistics are there. I can see that. But seriously?? Isn’t that a little drastic to say? I know plenty of intelligent people and in no way can I see them becoming drunks in their lifetimes.
Then again, I’m running only my optimistic naivety here and I like to think that this doesn’t normally happen.
That when I say I’m going to go sit in my room and do some homework, I’m actually going to do my work. Oh but this awkwardly shaped bottle I have under my shirt?
It’s nothing. Nothing at all.
