apart from everything else, what I don't understand is: if i were as rich as JT the number one first thing i would spend my money on is somebody to drive my ass around 24/7, drunk or not, like figuring out how to get places is the fuckin worst, this is just an incredible unforced error
I have a lot of experience as a cat box scooper. Different types of boxes, different types of litter. Not to brag, but my litter scooping resume is impressive as hell.
Yeah hiring tons of people - feels weirdly like one of the less gross things you can do with excess wealth in a way? Had a friend whose family had a pretty sudden massive windfall; they spent more on hiring people (gardener, housekeeper, tutors, personal trainer, maintenance) than on "stuff".
Dude got a warning for something I didn't think people typically got warnings for... and kept doing it... and his friends are calling the cop overzealous for "hassling" him?
A second chance not to get a DWI is like the golden unicorn of all white privilege and these entitled assholes feel put out
Falling asleep, or getting into a book, or whatever... and coming out of that somewhere else is basically magic. If you had the money, wouldn't you want magic?
I dislike driving and looking for parking in an unfamiliar place makes me very anxious. If I were to win big lottery money the very first thing I do wouldn't be to buy an expensive car, it would be to get rid of the car I do have.
I'd keep mine, and fix up the classic truck I have, but no--buying an expensive one isn't in my fantasies.
I won't hire someone to drive me to Safeway a mile and a half away, but other, longer trips around town? Sure.
this was my exact reaction when chris pine got his dui in new zealand, like how do these people not have hired drivers?! how is this happening!? it's so grossly irresponsible bc they have no excuse
'“Before cell phones and cameras were everywhere, bartenders in the village would call 911 and report a fire or an accident miles and miles away, just so their customers could drive home,” another local law enforcement source said.'
like I don't ever wanna cape for the cops but fuck those bartenders
That's why driving is so important to them. Because of that very reason. He has spent his entire life being escorted everywhere. Never alone nor allowed to do things for themselves. So when they get a chance to, they take it. I used to cook for a lot of musicians, and I heard that often.
Did I post it was a correct choice, or did I just post an answer to a question you posed?
Where did I make any judgments about it either way?
I posted nothing about him. I posted about why celebrities would want to drive themselves instead of taking an Uber.
Go back to Twitter.
I mean I do get it though I don't want somebody constantly chauffeuring me and being in my business, but that is no excuse for drinking and driving if that's what he was doing. Hell I'll even take an Uber, wait a minute nah probably if I was famous it wouldn't be to take an Uber...
