Sanmac - // Cor blimey...This aint 'alf fun. Will the general populace be allowed to take part in a public stoning prior to the crucifixion? I'm traveling from afar, so will me and the family be able to buy an assortment of stones, pebbles, and rocks at the venue or do we have to bring our own? Bringing our own would be a bit of a hassle, actually...Just askin', like. //
You can spend a few years relentlessly courting attention and popularity from the public, but either you simply fade away, or the public turn on you, those are the two options.
Just because some people like you doesn't mean everyone likes you, and funnily enough, when the dislike starts, people who were previously indifferent and didn't care, suddenly become interested in piling on the pressure when the attention bites back.
I have spoken to very many famous people - and I mean famous for something, not just being a moron on the internet - and I have quoted the same phrase time and time again -
Fame is a barbed wire treadmill - you need to know exactly how to run on it, or it will cut you to pieces.
Welcome to fame 'Tommy'.
