Couldn't believe it when I learned it was one of the most popular shows on TV.

Thanks a lot, skippy.
I never heard of it until you had to tell us how terrible it is; complete with images.
And I can no longer say that.

Unfortunately, I can't "unsee it" either.

Some realities are best left unsaid.

With 40% of teenagers and adults now (suddenly ?) being either criminals or insane (or both) I choose not to discuss or even mention more novel ways to kill or otherwise victimize the rest of us...

Almost 40 per cent of white males are arrested by age 23.
The figure for blacks is 50 per cent. The FBI considers 30 per cent of all Americans have a criminal record.

Shocking. But having one myself, from the 1960s, I can’t ride a high horse. The drug laws, for one thing, were and are a major cause of young people becoming scofflaws. When they try marijuana and find out its dangers are vastly overstated, they think more serious drugs are over-hyped, too.

It took a Constitutional amendment to ban alcohol (which created more scofflaws than the country had ever had before), yet marijuana needed only the stroke of a pin. I’m not so sure history is progress when it’s cultural progress that is being discussed.
