#104: Mondays With The Kardashians!

Yes, Mondays suck no matter what… That’s a given.

But when I get into an elevator with a hotel guest who insists on blathering on about the latest episode of Keeping Up With the Kardashians, I suddenly realize that Mondays are cursed…

“Kanye West gave Kim Kardashian a makeover by throwing out all the clothes from her ‘ghetto’ closet.” The best part? This statement came from the white bread mouth of the most homogenized twelve-year-old girl I’ve ever seen…

Her long-suffering parents just rolled their eyes as their progeny continued.

Kim was like “Kanye has definitely inspired me to wanna, like, be a little bit more of an individual. Life is about “evolving and changing.” she gushed, “And then Khloe freaked out that Kim was donating her clothes. And then Oprah interviewed everyone.”

The little girl then exploded from sensory overload. Okay, not really, but I can dream, right?

“Oprah interviewed the Kardashians? I liked her better when she was white.” was Dad’s response to all the drama. A classic Dad response, right?

As for this dad, I wanted to enlighten the little girl – by shaking her until her head popped off – but I’m hamstrung by professional ethics. And the law, of course. Her parents faces told the story: they gave up on setting their little darling straight long ago. She was another Kardashian zombie and nothing would change that.

I also wanted to charge her parents for my time. NO ONE should have to start their Monday with the Kardashians. NO ONE….

  1. You just can’t escape those Kardashian’s can you??

  2. Oh Geeze, I wonder how many children are lost to the Kardashians every minute!

  3. LOL. I have picture in my mind of a girl exploding from sensory overload along with her head popping off! Again, I’m so glad my tv is broken lest I accidentally surf on E or whatever channel they are on.

  4. My Monday started off with a quick gasp of shock. Did you know that yesterday morning was the season finale of HBO’s “The Newsroom”? That was so sad for me!!!

  5. Oh a Kardashian morning sounds l like talking to my sister! She’s always down with their stories… But can I say I’m more excited about your book! Congratulations… I must give it a try!

  6. I’m sorry your Monday was so terrible, but look on the bright side – instead of sharing the elevator with a girl talking about the Kardashians, you could have been sharing it with an actual Kardashian.
