I have somehow managed to not to watch a single episode of the cultural
phenom known as Jersey Shore. But wanting to keep up with popular culture,
I set up the PVR to tape the season premiere to see what all the fuss is
about.
Well, I lasted about 15 minutes before hitting the erase button.
What the #$%@!!
Why are millions of people engrossed with this ... (desperately trying to
come up with the perfect adjective) ...pitiful excuse of a television show?
Why is The Situation worth millions? Why does Snookie exist? Why are the
lives of these uncharismatic losers worth the attention of a television
crew, let alone a network?
The mind reels.
