UPDATE -- Julia: When The Universe is Trying To Tell You Something

A Tweet from last night:

Just left BRAND NEW Canon camera I bought at Best Buy @ 9pm IN THE BACK OF THE GODDAMN CAB. There are no words. Just a sound: ARGHGHRHGHGHHH

I'm not a religious person, but I might take this as a sign that on the eve of SXSW, the world is tired of seeing pictures of you hamming it up with D-list celebrities and perfecting the Blue Steel and gangsta signs. Just a thought, Jackles.

UPDATE: Satan -- or a conscientious cab driver or a creepy stalker Twitter follower who knows where she lives -- moves in to elbow God out of the way:

This morning I woke up to a digital camera left w my doorman, the EXACT KIND I left behind in the cab. I have a guardian angel. Unreal ... from web

  2. I do not. Apparently she either got it back, or someone bought her a new one. Check out her latest tweet.

  3. Or maybe this is just some Sock Puppet Theatre LIU style?

    It is hard to know with this looney binner what is real and what is hallucination...

  4. Is anyone going to SXSW? Please punch her for me? Kthx

  5. Or did she lie about losing a camera and Tweet it hoping that one of her insanely creepy Twitter stalkers would do exactly what they did?

    Just a crazy conspiracy theory.

  6. I call BS on that one. Unless she's got a stalker who knows where she lives and can spare money to buy her a camera.

  7. this whole story so did not happen.

  8. I don't like to speculate on these things but I have to remind everyone I think this is at least the third time she lost her camera somewhere, tweeted about frantically, and then had it magically show up the following morning. A little strange, you have to admit.

    But then again she could just be absent minded and leave things behind a lot. And the cab driver might have noticed the camera left behind, had her address on reacord if he/she dropped her there eariler, and took the camera back.

    I could believe either scenario but I'll go with the second one this time. One more time though and I don't think I could swallow the story again.

  9. It's highly unlikely that someone would have correctly guessed which camera she lost. I'm going to assume the cabbie noticed it and was kind enough to drop it off.

  10. Plus, pretty much no stores are open late at night selling cameras. Such BS. This is why I come only to RBNS and never to NS itself. Why give liars pageviews? Giving RBNS pageviews is much more meaningful.

  11. Either way, she's a dumbass who supposedly has a tendency to lose expensive gadgets in the back of cabs. Oh, but she "doesn't drink"? So what's her excuse for this constant loss of pricey belongings then, just simple stupidity??

    ReplyDelete
  12. It's not really fate. If the cabbie saw it in the back after dropping her off at home, he turned around and gave it to her doorman, described her as "that clown-like woman with fake ass hair and personality," and there it is.

    ReplyDelete
  13. Exactly, 9:51. I have a best friend who is constantly losing cameras, umbrellas, coats, gloves, sunglasses, etc., always the brand new and nicest things she owns. This happens nearly every time she goes out drinking.

    ReplyDelete
  14. c'mon. this reaks of sponsorship (or her attempt at attaining sponsors). never. happened.

    ReplyDelete
  15. I think she may be desperately trying to "lose" some (staged) photos, but keeps getting foiled by good Samaritans. Remember the loss in DC of a device (allegedly) containing 14 Chad Hurley pics?

    Poor Juliu, no scandal to increase your notoriety/page views today. Keep trying, fameball; it amuses me.

  16. Julia Allison publicly endorses Canon. Canon stock price plummets.

    This must be the handiwork of a marketing genius at Kodak.

    ReplyDelete
  17. As people have pointed out above, this is at least the third or fourth time Julia has lost cameras, iPhones... remember leaving the hard drive on the subway? I think she's trying to pull a Paris Hilton and "accidentally" lose some embarrassing pictures of herself.

  19. How do you get back the exact "kind" of camera you lost rather than "the exact camera"? Are there just a bunch of clone Canon's floating around in NY taxis? Seems strange somehow.

    ReplyDelete
  20. Anony 11:20-My thoughts exactly.
    While I do think she probably did lose the camera, I'm completely flumoxed with the ending of her story. Either her exact camera was returned to her or someone, out of the kindess of their heart, purchased a random canon camera and it just happened to be the model she lost. That's a little hard to believe, no?

  21. Hey, I thought NS was an all Kodak shop!

    P.S. I am requesting that NS put up a leaderboard listing the NS girls and the amount of technology each girl has lost, left behind, or accidentally destroyed. My guess is that Jill from LIU is in the lead.

  22. Jules ..next stunt..

    Tatoo Kodak to your body..

    as a charity event lucky 20 get to have front seats seeing and hearing you in pain..

    I have a feeling we could round up 20 ex's to pay for tickets :)

  23. I don't really buy that the cabbie found it and returned it. When cab drivers in NYC drop you off, it's not like they wait to make sure you get into the building safely...she got out of the cab, he took off, end of story.

  24. um, duh.
    I am sorry to admit that I am a New Trier
    graduate. She's scary...
    I don't watch TMI or go to their pages, it's
    always IN-Studio BS, we are in NYC dumbass!
    There is so much to investigate! and see,
    and experience. It's always about ME and shopping, and parties. Boring. but strangely
    rubber-necking fascinating....

  25. Because Juliu loves adjectives that begin with "in" so very, very much, she inadvertently willed herself into becoming infamous, rather than famous. The Secret* works!

    *I liked it better when it was called The Dilbert Principle.

  26. Or ... it's a cover-up for the dumb ass just misplacing it in her purse or one of her pockets and finds it after twittering like an idiot so she makes up this b.s. story for the people at SXSW who say ... "oh great bunnie! you got your camera back!"

    ReplyDelete
  27. I noticed on Megan's page she is on her way to SXSW and is already experiencing technical difficulties. Wonder if they'll be in a technology black hole at SXSW just like the other conferences they've attended?

  28. 1:35 - But of course! Don't y'all know there's no Internet anywhere in the greater Austin area?

    /obviously total sarcasm

    ReplyDelete
  29. You guys have no idea how sad I am that she's currently in my city.

    ReplyDelete
  30. No sadder than those of us in NY, where she's planted her fat ass and won't leave.

    ReplyDelete
  31. Well they can't say they don't have internet in Austin. The downtown Hilton has in-room internet for a fee, and the coffee shop downstairs has free wireless. Plus, you know, it's Austin, there's free wireless just about everywhere downtown.

  32. i don't get it. she either had her camera returned or someone bought her the same camera? kinda weird.

    and yes, i second the motion that we keep a running tab of jill's lost items. why is she so careless with her electronics?
