Sunday night I got caught in the web of reality TV. It was like watching a couple argue in the car next to you or watching someone’s child have a temper tantrum in the mall. Those are all things you’re embarrassed to see happening in front of you, but can’t look away. That’s what reality TV is for me. I felt like both my eyes and brain were held hostage, and a perverse part of me enjoyed it. The conscious part knows a majority of these shows, if not all of them are staged for maximum messiness, but again, I couldn’t turn away. Any minute I was going to turn into a pillar of salt as I looked on.
The night started with me watching about 5 minutes of “Keeping up with the Kardashians.” I tuned in to Kim calling some stranger a slut and a whore and bragging to her cronies and Kanye that she went ghetto on her. First thing, I want to know is how she can “fix her mouth” to call someone a slut/whore, but got rich and famous off a porn?
