Well, That’s A Much Nicer Way to Put It
A newspaper reporter, who described himself as being “in an especially foul mood last night,” posted a picture of President Obama taking a selfie with the cutline —“A fool-proof way to make yourself look like a self-absorbed assclown.”
He apologized.
He changed it to read, “A fool-proof way to make yourself look like a self-absorbed celebrity.”
Yes, that is far more respectful.
However, it is nice to know that celebrity and assclown are interchangeable words.
