Clark: I Don’t Care Who You Are

I’m announcing my write-in candidacy for president today on a one-issue campaign guaranteed to win over all right-thinking Americans, be they Republicans, Democrats or members of parties Green and Tea. Put me in the White House. I won’t start a war. I won’t raise your taxes. But I WILL pass judgment on every jerk celebrity who dares utter “Do you know who I am?” during moments of drunken duress, ego excess or impending arrest. Same for all boorish variations, such as: “Don’t you (#^$%)-ing know who I am?” Or, “Don’t you recognize me? I’m Miley Cyrus.” Are you as sick of these self-inflated saps as I am? Shia LeBeouf. Tara Reid. Lindsay Lohan. Kanye West … I feel like my head will explode when one of these idiots plays the fame card/Doug Clark, SR. More here.

Question: Has someone ever played the fame card on you ("Don't you know who I am?")?
