I know “trainwreck TV” is a “thing” nowadays, but I seem to have an inability to enjoy it the way most people seem to be able to. It doesn’t make me feel better about myself, I don’t find it funny as I know these people aren’t reading from a script or trying to be BE funny…. and I feel bad laughing AT them. I know they volunteered for the show and all, so it’s not like they are being exploited against their will– I just get the feeling they aren’t intelligent enough to realize it. Or, it’s all fake and they’re doing it for the money, but that doesn’t make me want to watch it either.
Are you guys into any of these types of shows?
You better Red-neck-ognize! Weird kids gonna need a lot more padding in that outfit to pull off a proper Honey Boo-Boo. Who’s he gonna have go as the human thumb mother? Oh Fred, how would you like to accompany me on a trip, all you have to do is wear a dress, keep your head down so we can’t visibly see your neck and feed me butter…lots and lots of butter.
yeah, actually.. the mother is FAR scarier than the kid. I just didn’t have enough panel space to draw her. OH! fat joke. badda-bing.
Be afraid, be very afraid
One of my friends said he was going as Honey Boo Boo, and I told him he was not allowed to be seen talking to me.
Of course, the owner of my local bar is going as Hurricane Sandy. Gotta love Brooklyn…
