Bear with me for a few seconds while I get up on my little podium here.
I really do think that money makes the world go around, to a certain extent. At least money is what motivates most people. This is why I believe in the power of the BOYCOTT. Personally, I have a few of my own quiet little boycotts going on.
If you are a washed out 80's pop star who mutilated your own face in an attempt to erase all traces of your ethnic background- then I boycott you. Your message is frightening. I do not buy your music or watch you on tv. I also change the radio station when one of your songs comes on. When you are accused of child molestation I feel my boycott is doubly justified.
If you are an action film star who who dismisses the very serious medical condition that I myself suffered from after my own first pregnancy/delivery and many other women suffer from too, then I boycott you. Not only will I not see your films in the theater but I won't rent them or even read the book once I find out you are starring in the movie version. Your industry has to take a stand and the almighty dollar speaks. Mine says you are out.
If you are the Garden State's homosexual ex-governor and in some kind of delusional state you decide to write a book detailing your sexual promiscuity with both women and men while you search for your true sexual identity during your two marriages to two unsuspecting wives then I will boycott that book. And I will beg everyone I know to boycott it too. I do not boycott your book because of differing political views, although getting your unqualified lover a high security job was a really ballsy move, comma, but because once upon a time you were a lying cheating adulterous husband who betrayed your wife and children, and I will not support that kind of behavior. You have a lot of nerve, scumbag.
I am stepping off the podium now.
