First of all i'd like to take this opportunity to give my boss' daughter, Carly, a heartfelt thank you for inadvertently supplying me with a worthy target for todays ire :) Now then, we all know my feelings on reality TV shows and the ilk who populate them (and if you don't then clicky here to catch up...and *do* try to pay attention in future...honestly!), but what could these hateful reprobaits possibly have in common with my boss' daughter? Well perhaps if I pass on the gist of the excitable text message she's just sent...it went along the lines of "Oh my god! I've just seen Stu & Michelle from Big Brother 5 walking down the street! I can't believe it! I've taken a picture...wow!"...now, my first reaction here was to think "Who?"...then I remembered 2 of the hateful characters from the last shameless parade of ego and idiocy that was Big Brother 5 (not that I watched it you understand...but you will unfortunately get subjected to some of this mindless pap if your housemates are both avid viewers...*sigh*), obviously the thought following this realisation was "yeah...and?"...as I simply can't understand why 2 normal people with no discernable talents whatsoever, aside from being intensely irritating of course, are deserving of any recognition or excitement? It's akin to me running out into the street right now, grabbing a complete stranger and going "Oh my god! You're a random nobody i've never met! I can't *believe* that i've run into you here, walking around on the street like other normal people and...OH MY GOD! look over there...it's someone else utterly insignificant! WOW!"...*ahem*...ok, perhaps I exaggerate slightly...but exaggeration is funny dammit and I think it's made my point admirably ;)
