Unlikely heroes. For real.

Contrary to popular prediction, reality television is not going to take over the world. Yes folks, the stupid stampede is finally getting corralled. And who do we have to thank for this not-so-small miracle? Advertisers who don't want their products associated with unholy ingestions and authentic idiots.


See? Advertising CAN be used for good! Thank God for commercials.

And here I got used to referring to my vocation as "plying a godless trade."

Too bad the networks didn't get the point in time to alter their upcoming line-ups. Have you seen those promos for Comedy Central that oh-so-gently mock the genre? I keep confusing them with the ones running on the Big 3, 5, whatever they are... "there's just one catch, one of them is a millionaire!"

Suddenly the sun is shining a little brighter and the birds are chirping a little louder...

But it's okay for good number of advertisers to portray their consumers as idiots. Hmmm.
Wonder if they are the same advertisers.

LOL. Good point. At least in the commercials, they can control and direct the idiocy ;-)

I think in the ads, they are revealing their own daily idiocy...
