So let me get this straight...raising your 8 week old twins in a closet was A-OK in your book, but having a major structural component (like a roof-supporting beam) running across the ceiling in your new place is NOT going to fly....

I don't recognize references like these, because I've not watched the programs in some time.

In fact, back when South Park did Honey Boo Boo, I had no idea the thing was real.


Stick to fiction, it's safer.

But scripts, sets and professional actors cost money!
Much more efficient to exploit the idiots of the world.

What blows my mind is that we now have scripted shows with professional actors that look like reality shows. We've come full circle.

No, I want to NOT know about these things. I care more about whether Seeley Booth is actually a vampire than I do about anything having to do with the existence of these people.
