Shorter TLC: “Dammit, Duggars, you owe us TV time, and we are going to get it one way or the other. Now show me on the doll where he touched you!”

A long long time ago, I still remember when…TLC was actually known as The Learning Channel. Really, it was. Back in the far distant yesteryear of the 1980s! I know, before some of you were born, but believe me, they had some fascinating programming and not a reality show in sight. Think about that. NO reality shows! How did we manage to get through the week without a constant barrage of mindless insulting shit?
Actually, very well if I remember correctly, and America collective IQ was likely 15 points higher.

Yep, that’s pretty much the lineup for the Truly Lousy Channel.

I am sure than the people of an El Salvadoran village are just clamoring for the victims of an incestuous child molester to show up and help them dig a well.
They won’t dowse for it, though. That’s the Devil’s Work.

I remember that as well. I also remember when the A&E in A&E Channel stood for Arts and Entertainment.

Oh, don’t remind me of the loss of A&E. —sigh—
I know, we’re being elitist. Real 'mericans watch NASCAR and…I don’t know…fisting maybe? That was suppose to be fishing, fishing damnit!

Don’t joke about “slipping”–Freudian or other–when fisting! Not a good thing, not a good thing. (Or at least so I’ve heard)

The “other” side cries constantly about gay marriage, Planned Parenthood and just all liberals in general as the cause of what they see as the downfall of America. From where I sit, if the downfall is coming (or is here), it is in large part due to the relentlessly voyeuristic pablum that the general public is fed and apparently can’t get enough of that will be our downfall.

And that translates into not giving a shit about the world around them, or as least not caring enough to take a few hours to learn a bit about the candidates and vote.
But…but…they say, I’VE got to answer this text NOW!!!
A few weeks ago I was at a dinner with friends, two couples and their kids. Their kids always have their noses in their smart phones–often during dinner–but this time most of the adults were doing it as well, and yes, during dinner. My wife and I shared a look of, “Why the fuck are we even here?” 2 1/2 hours of dinner and sitting in a room with almost no conversation. It was surreal. As least their cat was cute.
