Smart Celebrities

Filed under: General Rants — Bunker @ 7:28 am

There are some people in this country who take their political cues from people like Elton John and Billy Bob Thornton. Elton takes a cheap shot at Madonna, and Thornton thinks Shakespeare is stupid.

“It’s not that I don’t understand it. But people think if you speak with an English accent it somehow makes you smarter.”

Okay. I’m sure both are far more intelligent than I, and I should be hanging on their every word.

  2. I think if you speak with an Australian accent it makes you smarter.
    Also it allows you to be able to drink more beer!

    The downside is it makes you suck at golf….

  3. Would one sound more intelligent if he recited Shakespeare with a German accent like on Dexter’s lab?

    To quote Slingblade: Mmm Hmmm!
