Katie Price (Jordan) or Jodie Marsh. Who do you prefer?.

[fatshrimp]

I agree...neither...both a couple of old dogs with 1/2 brain cell between them

Hasn't la Marsh got a few A Levels? Don't she's stupid but plays up to the dumb Essex slapper imagne. Quite well, actually.

Means nothing though does it? You can have a shedful of degrees and still be as thick as two short planks.

Think so, IIRC she went to some posh school near Upminster.

 

[fatshrimp]

No I agree, but shows that she's not totally stupid. That was in the days when A levels were harder to get too.

(Controversial)

I admire Jordan for the way she has dealt with the Dwight Yorke scenario and also the condition of Harvey. I also admire the way she has manipulated the press fantastically to become a bloody rich woman using just her fake tits. I myust point out i do not find her particularly attractive, though much more so than Marsh, who i hate because she is a nothing.

Says Essex's Hunkiest Male Teacher of the Year 2007 :stunned:

And looking forward to defending that title in 2008 :D

Seriously, she is ruff in the flesh. If you take away the fact that she just parades around in her skimpies, you're not left with much. Least Jordan is vaguely pretty.

I thank you! My genius is recognised at last :dim:

You know, when I worked in banking, I used to dread the end of the uni year because you'd suddenly get all these idiots come in who were signing up for the bank's graduate accelerated programme and you'd have to train them from scratch over a 3 month period before they moved on to bigger and better things. As a chief cashier, it often fell to me to supervise them learning how to "cashier". God, the frustration! 9 times out of 10, they had not an ounce of common sense between them. I agree they have brains, but they invariably can't apply them to real life - and I apologise if that's offensive to any of those on here studying for or who have already completed degrees. Maybe it was just the ones that came into the bank.

No I agree with this. I worked in a very proper Merchant Bank in the early 90's and they prided themselves on taking the best graduates. For the most part, these people were complete fukking idiots that usually fell by the wayside and achieved nothing. The people that tended to get on were those that were not stupid, attained a (half) decent education and had some common sense. Trouble is, those people had to work that much harder to get on as they were generally overlooked as they didn't have the requisite education.

In the case of Jordan & Jodie Marsh, neither of them are overly educated, but they have attained public recognition and wealth that is beyond the majority of us. Wouldn't say either of them were stupid.

I'll put my teachers hat on for a moment here and disagree with that.

The A Levels were dumbed down a ridiculous amount long before she got within spitting distance of taking hers.

The ones I took in '96 were nowhere near as hard as some practice ones our teacher made us do for a laugh (mainly theirs) from '83.

Topics hadn't changed, just become much easier.

Topics also diversified hugely around that time meaning you were able to take A levels in some subjects which were by their nature, easier to get good grades in. I took mine early 80s, English, Art and an early Business Studies, and got two Cs and a D. I was very proud of that.

The A-Levels were still the hardest exams I've ever taken and that includes my MA and my IPD exam.

Admire? Are you sure? Maybe you're impressed with how she has dealt with things, but would you really go as far as to say you admire her?

And I bet you any money you like you wouldn't say that nowdays!

Add in the fact they're modular nowdays, so you can keep retaking things until you get a decent pass. Not a patch on what they were.

Yes i think i would. I think its remarkable how she has achieved that success and i admire her for that.

Fair enough.

I personally need someone to do something out of the ordinary, like climb Mount Everest for example, for me to admire them.

Not even anything that remarkable, there are many people I admire for a variety of reasons - the Queen (but none of the rest!), Sir Steve Redgrave, my parents.......I could go on, but I can't admire Jordan for dealing with a handicapped child given the amount of help, money and support she has.

 

[WestRoadShrimper]

(In response to londonblue, but OBL got in the way!)

Oh I don't know - I would admire someone who battled bravely against cancer etc... Disabled child isn't a million miles away.

I quite agree - in an ordinary household, not in a pampered, priviledged household.

 

[WestRoadShrimper]

Fair point there.
