Idiot Box

I did something today that I rarely ever do.
I sat down in front of a T.V. and channel surfed.

First of all, I'd like to say: daytime programming sucks! Second of all, what is with all of the baby-mama-drama trying to find out who your babys-daddy is and endless parade of morons airing their disgusting and pathetic sex lives on national tv?! Then there's the supporter of legalizing marijuana and his psychic friend/guest-host (get me some hedge clippers for those fingernails) who is so blase about her answers. And how can we leave out the one show that was specifically tailor-made for all of the (cringe) trailer-park folks. Thirdly: why all of the court shows? Other than a Judge sitting behind his bench in a robe - I see no difference between baby-mama-drama, pot-head, or trailer park.

Oh man, then there are the soap-operas (why opera?) ...

everyone has slept with everybody - then they find out that they may be related somehow (eww), every other person has some sort of diabolical plot to rid themselves of a competitor and everyone who dies or are killed off, comes back from the dead (at least once). This is the standard plot-line to all soap-operas everywhere.

Anyway, to sum up this rant: Daytime T.V. sucks!
