How clueless do you have to be to not recognize that soliciting an A-list celeb's photo or autograph at a restaurant is a signal to the entire dining room that he's available for requests for the next hour and a half?
This clueless.
According to the woman pictured:
She approached Alex Rodriguez for a photo at dinner
His wife and friends "huffed and puffed"
He reluctantly complied
Her friend asked if he was an asshole
She said yes, loud enough for A-Rod to hear
A-Rod flipped her friend the bird
And now she's pissed. Sending out an e-mail to a celeb gossip site to expose this indignity.
Know your role, lady. You're not the only one who wanted a photo or an autograph or to have him say hi to your niece on the cell. But you're the only one who thought he wasn't entitled to have dinner without doing those things. For everyone. Or are you just special?
Short of turning every meal into an impromptu autograph session, there's no way these guys can win. Just leave 'em the hell alone and let them be human.

Spur-M Sperm Pills Learned about this drug through spam mail, which can be wildly entertaining if you give it a shot. Anyway, these pills give you "up to 500% more volume" on your load. "Cover her in it if you want," the product says. Yeah, if you want. Might want to ask your lady how she feels about it first before dropping the XXXXXL tsunami.
The Budd Dwyer Show Lyrics and guitar chords to the song about the Pennsylvania state treasurer who killed himself with a .357 magnum on live TV in 1987. I'm a sure it's an uplifting diddy.
TIME's List of 100 All-Time Novels Again, they go the pussy route and don't rank 'em, but it's a cool package, with links to original reviews from the mag, like this 1925 write-up on The Great Gatsby. Who was, as Thornton Melon told us, great.
