Rant time
I really, really, really, really hate reality shows.
There.
I said it.
The network Execs have created a nation of zombies; zombies who don't feed on brains per se, but on drama and backstabbing competition.
How in the living fuck can you call this Reality, of all things?
This isn't fucking reality, this is stuffing a shitload of people into a particular setting, and throwing an emotional hand grenade into said room.
This is a horde of people stuffed onto an exotic island and forcing them to cannibalize one another in the hopes of winning a shitload of money and losing enough weight to the point of resembling Swedish models.
This is a gaggle of unruly air heads who have little to no respect for themselves, and exponentially less for everyone else that comprises the world.
That there are really that many people in the world who honestly enjoy watching people turn into the dregs of society show the absolute worst side of humanity is depressing.
(Don't even get me started on 99% of the sit-com's on the air. I just drank some beer to get my blood pressure down.)
I simply cannot stand shows such as these, wherein I can hear myself getting dumber just by watching it.
Have we really come to this, that such drivel is really "entertainment" ?
Does anyone actually ummm......read, anymore?
Gah.
