Re: Gold Toilet
George Clooney - I grew up in Kentucky. I sold insurance door to door. I sold ladies’ shoes. I worked at an all-night liquor store. I would buy suits that were too big and too long and cut the bottom of the pants off to make ties so I’d have a tie to go on job interviews. The idea that I’m somehow the ‘Hollywood elite’ and this guy who takes a shit in a gold toilet is somehow the man of the people is laughable.

Re: Gold Toilet
It's hard to be elite when nobody has ever heard of you.

So, I guess you are now claiming to be Illuminati because nobody has heard of you.
