I'll probably still appreciate her work but now it's tainted! but I'm sure to get over it.

But how?? It's not like she's a murderess like Brandi! She's a mouthy drunk!

A funny piece by Cole Escola:

I still like her as an actress.

That's hysterical, Reg!

I've always loved Reese and still do. I'm a mouthy drunk too.

Best do-you-know-who-i-am story...
I worked a box office once with a bitter jaded old crone, the kind that expected customers to be a pain even before they opened their mouth.
A woman came up insisting on aisle seats when there were none. The woman finally announced, in a pretty snotty tone, "my husband is a doctor!" My coworker, without hesitation replied, "yeah well my father's God. Now pick from the available seats."

This Tennessee girl isn't surprised in the least. Just sayin'.

I agree about Reggie's link being funny.

SonofRobbieJ, I still like Reese! This isn't going to turn me off being a fan. Dang, though, she and hubby need to learn about designated drivers or take a cab! Fortunately no one was hurt, and she did the right thing in apologizing, which is what I would expect any well-bred southern gal to do upon sobbering up and realizing that she showed her butt the night before.

Here's a detailed report:

I like this cop. He does a great report!

This just kind of confirmed that I don't like her, but I get that it's what her husband did that was criminal, not her. If the cop is to be believed, Reese's biggest crime is being a big douchebag, which I kind of always figured she was.

I hate to drive and avoid it as much as I can, so if I had the money, I'd just pay drivers and cabs all the time.

This thing will blow over for both of them, even the husband. Unless someone was killed or there was major damage, a DUI for a person with money is really nothing more than an inconvenience. It's only a life ruiner if you don't have the money for the insurance and legal fees and all that.

At any rate, it seems like an honest and heartfelt apology.

PRS, your douchebaggery assumption is spot-on.

I knew JerseyGirl was one of the cast of Friends!

These humorous links are making my day. Loved the tweet one.

Those text messages ha me ROLLING.

[tazber]

Posted: 4/22/13 at 3:54pm

I meant text message, not tweet.

It's forty minutes til five over here.

My time on Friends never coincided with Reese's, but we're the same age, from the same area and were both into speech and theatre.

I know she calls her company Type A Productions and when she was little she was referred to as "Little Type A" or something. It's always been my experience that people who actually refer to themselves as "Type A" are more or less admitting they are a-holes but think that the "Type A" moniker excuses it.

I love her but don't like her right now.

"An unidentified passenger in the back seat caught a cab, it said."

Are we sure Amanda wasn't with her?

Prolly! LOL!

My favorite "do you know who I am?" story was from my friend who worked at Barnes & Noble Bookstore in NYC in the early '80s.

He was at the register when his coworker (a rather ditzy gal) turned to a woman standing in line and said, "There's a ten dollar minimum on all credit card charges."

Yes, back in the ancient days, credit card fees were fixed and very high for merchants, so most of them had $10 minimums on all charges.

The woman standing in line rolled her eyes, and said very loudly, "Do you know who I am?"

The salesgirl picked up her credit card and read it back to her (also rather loudly):

"Churrr?" (She pronounced "Cher" phonetically.)

And this was mid-comeback Cher, after her variety show and '70s disco phase, before Turn Back Time and Moonstruck. A career lull, as much as she ever had.

Cher grabbed some book on the counter and stacked it on top of the one she actually wanted.

"HERE!" she said, feathers ruffled and pride obliterated.

Then she made her purchase and walked out the door without another word.

I still sometimes refer to her as "Churrr."

My favorite is Ernest Hemingway complaining to Alice B. Toklas that he had just tried to get into Maxim's ". . . and they didn't know who I was!"

To which Alice replied "And who were you?"

Oh puh-lease. She was three sheets to the wind, made a stupid comment, and apologized. Shall we cut her a little slack? I doubt this minor incident will follow her to the grave or be the lead in her obit.

[Phyllis Rogers Stone]

Posted: 4/22/13 at 7:50pm

Dammit! And all we were talking about was how this incident would follow her to the grave or be the lead in her obit!

I'm with you, Phyllis! I always got a humorless a*hole vibe off her, and I'm glad that's kind of confirmed (yeah yeah, we all make mistakes and at least she apologized, but let me have this).

"It's always been my experience that people who actually refer to themselves as "Type A" are more or less admitting they are a-holes but think that the "Type A" moniker excuses it."

LOL. Very true.
