Barfly All-Stars: The Stuporstar

(stü-pər-stär) Living under the delusion that people care who they are, the Stuporstar (ST) selfishly believes that the world is poorer for not worshiping the ground they walk on and will do everything in his or her power to remind you of it.

STs are easy to spot: they're usually shoving their way to the front of the line while dressed like Brittany Spears on one of her worst crack benders. Projecting a palpable aura of misplaced entitlement felt from up to a mile away, the ST is out to ruin the world for not loving them enough while making a complete fool of him or herself. Too much lip gloss and designer knock-off everything together with a crowd of idiots equally as loud and vapid create a 'perfect storm' of regrettable human waste.

Common variations: Legend In His Own Mind, Local Celebrity, GayT&T, cast member of any reality TV show.

Behavior: Like a four year old holding his breath until they get what they want, only this four year old is twenty three, has a cheap weave and clothes two sizes too small for even the most anorexic teen beauty contestant.

CAUTION: The ST will rarely notice subtle hints that they are not welcome at your bar, so use language that is direct and to the point. For example: "Hey douche-tard, why don't you go die in a fire" works like a charm.

Quote: "Oh. eM. Gee. Do you know who I am!?!"
