So. Back to normal. Since this reality TV show craze, which appeared to be just a fad, has dug it's hooks in, I guess I have to comment on it now. After all, the definitive voice of pop culture must be heard! Alas!

Anyhow, my "work buddy" Mike commented on the Real World this afternoon and I figure he's right. These TV Shows now remind me of when I was leaving High School. All the kids younger than I were all about drama. The girls and guys would have some issue to discuss or resolve every Friday night. Or one of the guys would get drunk and start trying to instigate fights, they'd rip their shirts off and start pounding their chests, spill beer on their heads and spray it out their mouths, then all the girls would run out yelling and screaming, "No. Don't hurt him. Don't hurt him!." Some would cry and then the cops would come.

I know what you are thinking. "Wow. You were at those parties! Loser!" Yes and no. I was usually the one super-glued to the beer pong table, stoned. These reality TV shows make everyone (not even the stars of said shows) think they are always on camera and important. Whatever. I am angry. Can you tell.

Earlier at work there was a debate as to whether or not Ben Stiller was actually funny. I think I was the only one under the NO persuasion. Ben Stiller is the most unfunny (I Hate that word but have to use it) bastard to be made by two comedians since Nick Cage. Due to nepotism and the Studio's inability to distinguish comedy from shilling, Stiller has been able to star opposite Robert Deniro and Drew Barrymore in truly awful films. He is what Jason Biggs will be in five years, if he's lucky. Stiller is the same guy in every film, kind of like Sean Connery, without anything interesting like an accent, or talent. He is a useless nincompoop who satisfied his only fantasies by marrying Marsha Brady and kissing Jennifer Anniston. Ben Stiller makes a "funny" face into the camera and waits for the cash to roll in. Every single copy of Zoolander and Duplex should be burned and Ben Stiller should be slashed from ear to ear.
