I read somewhere recently that the Ho-han is working up a memoir - perhaps because she can no longer seem to get work elsewhere. This irks, but Lindsay has actually done something to get to the top from which she fell to rock bottom. If her entire film legacy is just The Parent Trap and Mean Girls, I feel as though the world is a net winner for her having graced Hollywood's screens.
But while I find it a little sad, slightly irritating, Lindsay's is not the memoir I take issue with. No, my problem is when people like Nicole Richie, or Paris Hilton, or someone who appeared on a reality show for one season ages ago, and whose only talent was eating more bugs than the next guy, write memoirs.
I'll admit it - the driving factor is jealousy. These people haven't done anything, haven't worked for anything, and yet they're just handed a book deal, to be written "with the help of" someone who can actually write? I'd shave my head and walk naked through the streets beating a bongo for a book deal, but unfortunately I haven't managed to achieve the world-altering pinnacle of being "the bitchy one" on The Real World.
Sigh. Dignity is a real bitch sometimes.

The Truth About This Special Time In Your Life
According to what we remember from pamphlets geared towards 6th-grade girls, puberty is regarded as one of the most awkward and scary stages in a person’s life. It’s a time of horrifying physical transformations, scary new feelings, and growing interest in activities that you are still not old enough to engage in legally. Common symptoms of puberty include: braces, frizzy hair, baby fat, having a crush on 8th grader Steve Julius, blinding body odor and lame extracurricular interests like the violin or Bedazzling.
However, if personal experience has taught us anything, it's that there are experiences in life far more awkward, scary and pathetic than puberty. Here is a list of things that are:
WORSE THAN PUBERTY
