I need to begin my new blog with something interesting to talk about. I couldn't come up with anything, so I'll talk about this. I live in the Northwest (don't judge me) and I have noticed an incredible phenomena. Apparently in the NW, if you hate television, you are compelled to go out and buy a Suburu. For some reason, you can't have one without the other. Not me. For the most part I actually like television and I don't own a suburu. Granted, television has hit an all time low. That low, of course, being, "Reality" tv. Let me be blunt, I don't like reality tv. Let me be more blunt, I HATE REALITY TV! If this were the only type of genre available, I would be kicking back in my brand new suburu.
First of all, it's not, "reality". Not by average standards. I know this, because I'm average. Let us take for example, "Jon and Kate Plus Eight", soon to be, "Jon and Kate Plus Eight Minus One" (you do the math). What we saw on televsion, was obviously not reality. OF COURSE NOT! They have eight kids! Six of which are toddlers! If it were my show, it would consist of me hiding under the bed, and/or screaming while running up and down the street. Now THAT'S reality!
But what's most disturbing about these reality shows, is that I honestly think people are buying it. It seems that everyone believes they can somehow make money off their boring and uninteresting lives. They end up doing these incredibly dumb things, like, oh I don't know, perhaps have eight babies at one time? That would definitely beat the hell out of the sextuplets we are so accustomed to now. "Jon and Kate Plus Eight Minus One". HA! That's nothing! Here's "OCTOMOM". Coming soon to TLC.
Maybe Alec Baldwin and Dennis Leary are on to something. Maybe our brains are turning to mush in order to appease a higher power. I'm not really scared of them trying to suck my brains out. Bring it on. There's a Suburu dealer just right around the corner.
