Then I'm watching the commercials and it's advertisement for the "Real Housewives of who gives a fuck" some fake ass American idol type show more fashion shows and more shows about rich people. Then I'm looking at all the other Reality shows coming on T.V. like the Kardashians and all their ridiculous shows of people who seem to have no real value to the world and yet are insanely rich. Then there's the basketball wives who can you believe it are women who are NOT married to basketball players (I was flabbergasted when I found this out I know you were too) talk about false advertisement, some of these women have never been married to a basketball player (I'm looking at you Royce and your naps). Now don't get me wrong I don't have a problem with all the shows just the ones that's sole purpose it seems is to glorify decadence.
Listen I don't know if you guys are noticing or not but, America is fucked up, life is hard for a lot of people, and the idea that a show about buying furniture for a 20 million dollar house that the person will only stay in for 1 month out the year is good reality TV, really there is only one response to that.(a video there too)
Let me bore you with a few facts 1.4 million people have been unemployed for 99 weeks or longer, as of October 2010 4.04 million people are on emergency benefits, CEO's of the largest American companies make 531 times more than the average worker(for every dollar you make they make 531 of them, sounds like a good deal right?). Finally 16.6% eligible workers are either unemployed or underemployed (not working 40 hrs/wk). I haven't even touched the housing situation, but you are all smart people and I know you see my point.
I know the argument is people just like to get away from their problems blah blah blah, great, sweet, go to the movies where the shit is fictional not passed off as real life. But watching a bunch of lazy ass rich women and their half assed problems about throwing parties and arguing with each other over who said who's wig was real or what the fuck ever can't be considered good T.V or even entertainment. I do understand plenty of people watch that crap and they enjoy it but really??!! seriously dog??!!! REAAALLLY!!?? Most of the shows are about as real as nikki minaj's butt (or her fucking hair for that matter) I know you guys love watching these shows for the drama , and you barely think about them. It's kind of like old people's legs you know they have them you never think about them, then when you see them your still grossed out by them and hypnotized by the veiney trails and lost in the forest of wrinkling skin and the next thing you know you've been staring at those gross flabby things for 15 minutes and didn't even realize it.
It's the same way with these ridiculous shows you get sucked in by the stupidity of their silly ass argument and then your wondering if those boobs are real or how much did it cost to get her lips done, or even wow this guy is really gay and he just spent 150,000 dollars on a table that maybe 15 people will see and no one will use. Then the commercial break and you come out of the fog of ridiculousness, and your thinking WTF have I been doing with my life right now, then before you know it the show is back on, and your sucked right back in niiiiccceee, your watching "mob princesses" give up all the mob business and fight over who's man is a bigger asshole. Your watching 20 somethings with fake fashion jobs break up with fake boyfriends because they fucked their fake best friends, or your watching another super gay guy with really nice clothes (seriously is it like a law that gay people have great style and really nice jeans?) argue with an uber rich person about the type of sink in their 6th bathroom that no one will ever use.
Finally before you know it you've wasted 45 minutes of your life time that you could have been doing anything, you planned on using that time to clean your kitchen, or going to get some food, but you missed out and now you have to rush to get ready for your 2nd job just so you can pay your car note or rent. The really sad part is I'm just barely scratching the surface of the ridiculous "reality TV" shows there's about 30 of them on E. I just don't have the time, space, or energy to speak on them all.

While your watching these fake lives of real people, who in all honesty live much better than you simply because their parents, husbands or the TV show itself gave them money. The real reality is happening all around you and it's not nearly as glamorous or pretty and, really that's OK that it's not. All I'm saying is don't get lost in the fantasy of reality T.V.
