EDIT - I've seen worse on the local channels here...they should just stick to death and destruction (only thing they really like talking about).

9. Oh, so you don't think this is a symptom of a disease pattern?
Easy crowd to please these days...just grab your breasts or your nuts and it's comically appropriate. And strangely enough, Stripes the film is not a metaphor for life.

11. No, I think it's a single example of people trying to have something called "fun."

15. that's nice...it was great when my 6 year old would see stuff like that
on broadcast TeeVee and ask what was going on...in addition to the inanity. Personally, if I want inanity, I'll come here and read some of the posts. I don't need to see it on the frigging 6 PM news programs...

10. What's the deal?
It's just people joking around. Did the clip get changed?

It's not like they're distorting the truth or trying to have some sort of false "balance."

Seriously, I fail to see the significance.

We just thought is was ridiculous.

TV is inane. It caters to a 4th grade education. But this was just joking around. I'm more offended by American idol, or any reality show, because it insults my intelligence. jersey shore, ugh.
