omg i just looked up what a honey poo poo on youtube and i cant fucking believe my eyes. Is it just made up for tv or is it actually for real and people like that exist? And what ind of people watch that kind of show?!
Why did you have to look? WHY?
Sigh...
Ok, America edu-mication time. One man's opinion...
Yes, these are real people. But think about where any of us live... Let those without sin.
But there is more to it than that. Way more than I can bear sometimes. Shit, I went fishing up in WI last week and could find a honey boo boo in any Wal-Mart up there (google Walmart if you must... Or just the images.)
So despite the Great Society, Trickle Down, Great Leap Forward, etc. the dumbing of America continues unabated. So does the fattening. But just in case anybody else in Europe is reading this - that doesn't necessarily mean that we can't get our shit together when we need to and kick some ass when necessary. Uh, sorry. National pride to the extent....
We have always been stupid. But the digital age both exposes our stupidity and makes us stupider.
But cable tv is getting like the Internet here. There are a bazillion cable channels. Most are owned by a handful of companies that are segmenting the market. This makes for some strange shit. Like a HistoryChannel that shows no history and a discoveryless DiscoveryChannel. Both used to be old school channels with programming worthy of the BBC's best. But the times have changed. The station management is vested in finding freaks and fetishists now.
You cannot judge us by one show. This show probably has more hate/wonder watchers than 'fans'. I'll betcha you Brits didn't miss a Lord HawHaw broadcast - it didn't make you Nazis.
