What Is The Most Unfair Advantage A Person Can Have?
~1.0 mins read
A great example of this unfair advantage is the Kardashians. Let’s look at Kylie Jenner. Initially a plain looking girl, that got poor grades, and needed an extension to graduate homeschool highschool. She never has anything intelligent to say, and when I met her, and spoke to her awhile, she simply is a slow girl. But having the momager of the world Kris Jenner, she is almost a billionaire from her make up brand, and is gorgeous. Her mother financed several plastic surgeries, to help her image that she sold. Without the parent that this girl was gifted with, she’d be unexceptional.
That is a lot of work. A LOT. And all before she turned 18
she initially told the public that she hadn’t gotten surgery, and that her lips were the result of make up tricks with her new line of make up. A lot of girls actually injured themselves, trying to get the same results as Kylie. Because of these injuries, she finally had to admit to misleading the public and in fact having several cosmetic procedures done.
This answer was not meant to critique what she look like or her beauty or cosmetic surgery. This answer was to illustrate the limitless possibilities that can be presented to you if your mother is a expert at making people relevant. Whether they deserve it or don’t is not my point, my point is, having a parents like that is an advantage

Which Celebrity Had The Most Horrifying Secret Life? First Person That Came To Mind: Tiffany Haddish.
~2.8 mins read
Lots of people don’t like her because of her language and sexual jokes, but just bear with me.
Tiffany Haddish lived a normal childhood with the exception of the absence of her father, up until she was 8 years old. Her mother was married to a man who she loved very dearly, although he was violent and cheated on her, along with other things.
When Tiffany was 8, she was learning how to babysit for her younger siblings, and she begged her mother to let her stay home and watch them instead of taking them to her grandmother’s house. Her mother agreed, and left Tiffany and her siblings home alone. Well, her mother’s husband (her stepfather) cut her mother’s brakes, thinking that everyone would be in the car with the intention to kill them all.
Fortunately, Tiffany’s mother did live, but ended up with severe mental issues including schizophrenia, and no one told Tiffany what happened to her mother until quite a few days after the accident, leaving her all alone with the babies. After leaving the hospital, her mother would beat Tiffany and emotionally abuse her as well. Her mother ended up losing custody of her, and she went through a number of foster homes where things that weren’t pleasant for a child occurred. When she was 17 years old, she was sexually assaulted by a police officer.
Tiffany’s social worker eventually told her to sign up for comedy camp at the Laugh Factory, which is where her career started. But alas, that is not where her story ends.
She went on a cruise with her then-boyfriend, who was controlling and often cheated on her, where she was followed by a man, who also happened to be a police officer. He followed and filmed her the entire cruise in order to try and get her number, which he eventually got. They fell off after a while, and Tiffany changed her number.
3 years later, he found her while watching Bill Bellamy’s Who’s Got Jokes, and they began to speak again, he asked her if he could find her father, since he’s a police officer. He agreed to do so, under the condition that if he found him, she would have to marry him. So when he found her father, she did.
~Before I continue- please DO NOT say that what happened to her was her fault because she chose to marry him. I have heard this before, and it pisses it me off. No one deserves to be abused.~
So, after they got married, he tried to suppress her dreams of being a comedian by telling her she couldn’t take calls after or before a certain time, and telling her that he can provide for her and there was no need for her to take shows. He also placed a tracking device on the car he bought her because he seemed to think that being controlling and obsessive was the same thing as “protecting herâ€.
Eventually, he began to beat her and be physically violent, even causing her to miscarry twice (my apologies if I’m incorrect; it’s been a while since I read the book.) I’m kind of going off on a tangent here, but if he wanted her to be his wife so bad, and pursued her for years, why would he treat her so poorly? Anyway…
Even if you aren’t the biggest Tiffany Haddish fan, I definitely recommend reading her book, The Last Black Unicorn. It was an entertaining book, while also touching on some deep issues. I’ll include a link to the Amazon page, or if you’re cheap like me, the free online PDF.
Also, if you read this all the way through, thank you very much. Hope you enjoyed my TED Talk. ;)
