Oh laziness...

It is easy to grab ahold of you and take you down to the depth of do-nothing-ness. In honor of one my greatest vices, here is a an old blog posted from that other 'space' that is mine. I am no longer posting on that blog as that site is way two months ago. It's all porn and pervs anyway (not that there's anything wrong with that...wait, actually there kind of is). Anyfart, here's the post from August 16, 2006. I thought of this when I came across "Pirate Master" on TV the other day. Just sad.



Everyone gets a show!

You know what is spectacular? No matter what you are in to these days, there's either a 'reality' show currently airing about it, has aired, or is in production, itching to air to your eyes. Fake superheroes? Preachers? Shit cleaners? Pornographers? Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses and I will find a way to make it into a series of half hour TV shows. I can't wait for "so you think you can farm" or "America's got Gynecologists". If you haven't heard, there is a stictly reality tv CHANNEL, brought to us by the ad wizards at Fox. What's sad is that no matter what felch pies they air on tv, half of america will watch it. Is it boredom? Apathy? Genuine interest? Doubtful. I feel like our media outlets have sensationalized every topic to point where given the right editing or presentation, even paint drying can be turned into entertainment, given that two of the painters are fighting for the love of a third painter, or one of the paints is a color of a confederate flag or a star of david; just for the controversy. I seriously doubt this trend of 'reality' television will end anytime soon, as the method has been perfected and there are plenty of oddball genres/contestant types/activities still waiting to be exploited/feature/itching to have that 15 seconds burned on DVD to add that ever growing home library.
I'll pass.
