Reality?

Is anyone out there as fed up with the so-called "reality" shows as I am? I’m not just talking about shows like Big Brother and Survivor. I’m just as fed up with American Idol, Dancing with the Stars and all of the other "Crap TV" shows.

Let’s take a moment to define reality. According to Miriam-Webster’s on-line dictionary reality is "the quality or state of being real". Now I will admit that some TV shows like the police video shows can be classified as "real". But shows that are staged are not and I don’t care what anyone else says!

If anyone reading this watches them faithfully, I don’t mean to offend you but you must have fecal matter in your head. Who gives a shit if Cliff Clavin can dance or even Jerry Springer. They must really be hard up to keep their name in public, even more so than some of those half-assed actors doing commercials. Emmett Smith should have all of his football awards burned and the Dallas Cowboys should remove any reference to his being a player on the team and the same for Jerry Rice and the 49ers. Shame on both of you.

If you want reality, spend a little time walking around outside. Enjoy nature, do some people watching; you might see something interesting like the person NK and I saw in a local hardware store awhile back. It’s hard to describe her exactly but lets just say that she was wearing a double set of thong underwear (black lace and white lace) over her rather ratty/baggy blue jeans. Holding up the jeans was a large black silver studded belt. She belonged in San Francisco, not Iowa. Upstairs was nothing special, just a hot pink stretched out T-shirt under a tan cord jacket. With her hair dyed black the whiteness of her face was only offset by her dark blood red lips. Picture a overweight Marilyn Manson. Now that is about as real as a person can get

AGREED.
Except, Cami and I do (or did) watch one show, and it's a doozy: "America's Next Top Model".
That show is really funny! Don't hate me!
But that is the ONLY one I watched.
Swear.
Seriously I hate them all, except that one.
C'mon, Cami - back me up.
