The Thing About “Bright Young Things”

Then there’s firecracker. You want to be called a firecracker, I think? If you’re a woman, it means that the speaker approves of you. He (it’s usually a he) finds you feisty, energetic, opinionated, and honest. You also may be on the petite side, like a compact paper cylinder packed with explosives. The point is, it’s cute when you yell! (Meanwhile, if you’re a man and someone calls you a firecracker, you are either the singer Miguel or John Fletcher, the Human Firecracker, who over years of performances has lit more than 600,000 fireworks off his body.) Likewise, while plenty of men have been described as “whip-smart”—including Andrew Sullivan, a “whip-smart voice of reason in the racket that is the blogosphere,” George Clooney, and the all-guy band OK Go—the word is more frequently attached to members of the second sex: Ellen Page, Gail Collins, Elizabeth Warren, Rachel Maddow, modern moms, a wise-cracking dominatrix, Lisbeth Salander. This gender imbalance may have something to do with Liz Phair’s 1994 album Whip-Smart, which gave the adjective a lasting feminine shine. But it may also relate to how the compliment, while not backhanded exactly, suggests a level of inexperience or unrealized potential that is absent from more masculine terms like wunderkind. Watch out for the wunderkind: He’s a genius, and he’ll eat your lunch. The whip-smart new hire seems a little less threatening—unproven and rough around the edges. If wunderkind implies you should bow down, then whip-smart says “don’t count her out just yet.” She may not look like much, but perhaps she’ll prove to be more than the latest bright young thing.

Kourtney Kardashian may be on social media gushing about how happy she is but sources say that behind the facade her life with Scott Disick is a real mess. He never made it a secret that he wasn’t exactly on board with having a third child, especially while he was knee deep in grief over losing both of his parents in a short period of time. Now that little Reign Aston Disick has arrived, Disick is simply unable to handle the mountain of pressure on him.

According to a report by Radar Online, the reality star attempted to clean up his act only to fall off of the wagon again. In fact, just four days after the birth of new son, Disick was spotted smashed at a Hollywood lingerie party. Sources say that his patience is shot and Disick is fighting with everyone, especially Kardashian, who may have gotten the children that she has wanted, but can’t seem to reel her man in.

Then there’s the fact that he just purchased a nearly $4 million house in Beverly Hills that has been dubbed a bachelor pad. While the official statement is that Disick intends to start “flipping” properties, the reality is that he is often put out of the home that he shares with Kardashian. Rather than running to hotels this now gives him a regular crash pad.

The reality star is clearly unable to deal with his grief and resorts to his addictive behavior to deal or maybe to help him ignore the realities of his life. A lot of people do the same, but what is wrong with Kardashian for choosing to stay on this merry-go-round with him? Her life with Disick is never stable, yet she not only stays with him, but has built a family with this guy that will likely never giver her what she needs.

Do you think that she well ever really kick him to the curb? Or will Disick simply choose to come home less often, especially now that he has another option? Tell us your thoughts in the comments below!
