“And now you’re a tiny bit desensitized. “

Praise God! that I have ~you~ to inform me of the status of my own mind, at any given time.


I'm not reading your mind, I'm analyzing what you wrote, which was:

I had no idea the particulars of such things and frankly, I’m a bit freaked that this is going on, all the time, somewhere.

a) you "had no idea"

b) "I'm a bit freaked out"

Well - if you see the same episode a second time - you won't be "freaked out" the same as you were the first time you saw that episode, right ?

That is the definition of "desensitized":

1. To render insensitive or less sensitive.
2. Immunology To make (an individual) nonreactive or insensitive to an antigen.
3. To make emotionally insensitive or unresponsive, as by long exposure or repeated shocks

Why would I watch the same episode twice?

I really do think you should get over yourself.

The only worse than BB is the judgmental, self-righteous lunacy of denouncing BB as a “cultural influence”.

It’s a TV show.

I’m sure I’m not the only person who has noticed that.
