Specifically, it’s time to talk about celebrities Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, sometimes referred to as #Brangelina, who are getting divorced. This is definitely our business, and it affects us all. Yet I can’t help feeling like some of us really didn’t need to weigh in on it.

For example…

1) Sen. Lindsey Graham

Aniston and Pitt split up in 2005, and she’s since married Justin Theroux, but yeah, she’s totally still hung up on this whole drama.
