I guess I should warn everyone before hand, that what I\'m about to say is a long drawn out rant. If you don\'t want to be brought down by it, you might want to leave. Sorry for wasting what little time it took to load and read this far.
I have to tell -someone- about this loathsome thing. No matter who I talk to in \"RL\", they don\'t seem to comprehend the vile stranglehold their in. I watch EmptyV, and all I see is the twisted filth of collectively foul minds. If you haven\'t figured it out thus far, I will break it down.
I hate television.
God, it disgusts me how someone like Britney Spears and Madonna can suck face at an award show and become more popular. I cannot. Cannot . Understand, why you would have someone randomly enter your room. For what? So they can judge by your living conditions if they would date you?! Queer Eye For the Straight Guy; doesn\'t it strike anyone else as rude, or even disgusting, how people (A) Assume that homosexuals are good dressers, and (B) Dictate what they should, or shouldn\'t wear? This is America, you have a right to dress like a slob. Exercise it.
Jesus, how long has Howard Stern been on the air? He\'s married and he lives like any single pervert I know. Eminem. Slim Dorky. A tongue as venomous as that just about deserves to be removed. And his stupidity dwarves that even further. Comments by him about how \"joking\" about rape, murder, and gang-bangs are okay -if joking-. It doesn\'t end.
The Band, Hell on Earth, were going to publicize a suicide. Then, claimed it to be in a secluded place. Anyone sick enough to watch another person throw their life away, and find entertainment from it deserves to be cast off to a much more horrific death for being so unforgivably sick. Christ, it almost makes Maralyn Manson look decent (I won\'t even get started on that one.)
Even commercials. Axe Body Spray. Depicting \"man\" as a so-called gentlemen with a sick horn-dog sex-freak waiting to jump out. True. Humans as animals are not above dirty pleasures of the flesh, but with that kind of crap being forced into everyone\'s mind, is it any wonder AIDS is such a killer? It\'s the same thing with another cologne, whose name I forget, showing a cowboy and girl about to, ahem, ride a bull. I am aware that these \"commercials\" air on channels and programs not meant for children. I find it irrelavant. Why bother NOT having cigarette commercials when your just going to promote sex?! Victoria\'s Secret. Again, depicting only the desirable, trying to lull minds into an accepting state that you can be carnally desirable (Though I like those commercials...Stop looking at me like that.)
Why is it, that some skank like Madonna, who let us not forget, wrote a book about her sexual ways, is now writing a children\'s book. Yeah, here little Suzy, read this story about Little Red Riding Hood who show\'s the Wolf and Grandma how to have fun...at the same time. I realize now that my gripes seem to revolve around sex on television. Yes, I suppose so. But it seems like that\'s what they promote the most.
I would LOVE to see America if it went without T.V for a month. Hell, a week would be interesting enough. Let\'s see what they could accomplish when their minds aren\'t distracted by soap opera\'s, or Spring Break Wet T-Shirt Contests. Just think about how many potentially great minds were laid to waste by something so aptly called \"The Stupid Tube\". When television was introduced, children stopped reading so they could see that brain-washed squeeky clean family like \"The Cleavers\" live their lives, neglecting their own. Brainwashing, even then.
Even people I admired, turned to sludge. The Osbournes. I liked Ozzy\'s music. For a while, I even liked the show. Then I got to think about how sad it was to watch Ozzy and his misbehaving children. It finallly dawned on me. Yes, I know that as a star, he has to make a living, and someone of his reknowned state would make for a dare-I-say perfect Reality Show. But I find myself liking it less. Even finding out about Pete Townsend with his child porno problem, ruined another star I considered good. Maybe I just put too mcuh faith in people. They do make mistakes after all.
I think I bantered myself enough to where I got my point across. Yes, that should suffice. I suppose by now, most of you who read this thinking I\'m probably quite cronicly insane. No, I don\'t think so. The only reason I exploded like this was because I held it in for so long. My point seems like it was illustrated fluently. I don\'t expect to change any minds. I\'m not slamming anyone who stomached my anger this long. I\'m just expressing my personal views...on global level.
Then again, it\'s subjective. I mean, everyone has a right to their own conflicting opinions. So I guess, this was long, drawn-out, and somewhat pointless.
