sell out

I don't think I agree with this general definition here. When I think "sell out", I don't think of someone who blew up out of popularity. Most of the time, they have no choice over that, so its not fair to them and it makes the labeler look like a hater. Plus, what if that was their goal right from the beginning? You're basically chastising them for having hopes and dreams.

When I think of a sell out, I think of someone who vehemently spoke out against something or people who did something but later turns around and does the same thing. That is also a hypocrite.

There's nothing wrong with wanting do really well for yourselves. Like I said before some of these people had no choice and if you care for the actor, band, etc. you would be glad their talent got them where they are. I mean, we all have dreams, and we all gotta eat and fend for ourselves. If you have a talent, by all means flaunt it.

And trust me, I know how bad it feels when stupid people get a hold of your favorite band, but again that's not the band's fault and there will ALWAYS be a stupid bunch a group, period. No other way around it.

But when people actually talk about how stupid someone is, or how wrong one profession is, then later decides that they want to be in that profession or be that person's friend, that's when I have a problem. That's not attractive, at all. That's trifling, wishy washy, and fake.
Sally: What is that what Jack is wearing?

Jan: Oh, those are his new Prada loafers, don't they look nice?

Sally: That fucking sell out, he was just telling me a few months ago how he hated designer labels because the methods they used to make their products.

Sally: Wow, what a dick.

Sellersville

A small town in Pennsylvania right next to Perkasie. Can be thought of as Perkasie's ugly little brother. Is even worse, however, because Perkasie at least has some interesting shit in it. Everyone in Sellersville goes to bed at 8 PM.

smellyg

a fat-wide, short, dumpy, mean, angry person shaking her fat giant gross boobs to gain constant attention; insatible ego; low self-esteem; only child syndrome, overconfident (with no real cause to be), envious, hungry all the time; the (fat) girl with the most cake; big wide round face with tense smile, desperate to land a man and get married; any man will do; smellyg will pay.
I pulled a smellyg and had another "all about me" party for myself last night. I'm a lawyer. I collected all the gifts that I most certainly deserve from the friends who attended, some will no doubt be re-gifted. Oh, did I tell you I'm a lawyer? It's my claim to fame. I will pay the rent and buy you stuff if you marry me. Give me some attention, it's all about me.
