A Classic Phone Has its Gold Anniv—Oh no it’s just actually GOLD!

Forget being classy and respecting those with practically nothing in this recession. For some retarded reason Nokia is putting out a new version of the classic (used to be regular?) 6700 in gold. Not the color, more like the karat.

The gilded object of stupidity has been defended as Nokia as being not “just about the 18-carat gold finish”.

They’re right, I would pay ~$550 for

“… custom wallpapers to complete the gold look, alongside that carry case and monster memory card. The Nokia 6700 classic Gold Edition is a well specced device, boasting a five-megapixel camera wrapped inside that glorious metal shell and of course GPS and Nokia Maps to help you find your way to the next jewelery store.”

The plating’s just gravy.

So you know we girls like to treat ourselves with one great present each holiday season? Well Paris Hilton is like the ultimate girly-girl, so hers would be pink (awesome, of course) and even more great for this blog is its a big fantastic gadget – a car. Paris Hilton custom ordered herself an early Christmas present of a pink Bentley. Complete with pink/black interior, tricked out speakers in the trunk (I never understood that actually) and even oh-so glitterati-fab tinted/protective windows to prevent paparazzi snap flash-and-crash. (Oh well that’s actually necessary, right? Paris wants to drive well, now.)

Check out a video of Miss Hilton unabashedly gushing over her lavish and carefree expenditure – some girls just really do want to have fun, eh? C’est la trĂ©s rare vie!

Every girl has the pink Barbie Corvette, huh? (And Paris even upgraded to a Bentley.) I remember I had a pink Cadillac – so classic, but yep, I was the normal girl with Barbies who rode Fords. Le Sigh!

(OK OK I also had a little red speedster sports car, but I’m too girlie to remember what “brand” it was! Oh! and I had…….)
