Ahoy Cap'n Obvious!

It only just occurs to me that they purposely cast stereotypes in reality shows. (Yes, I'm slow, shut up)

Chick in show that I'm watching got called uneducated and she blew up and said something about how she went to a top something community college. Then a few minutes later in the show she said "There's a lot of drama when you live with females, especially girls."

No need to call her stupid, just let her keep talking and she does it on her own.

I can't even watch those kinds of shows anymore. The stupid hurts my brain.

I got asked what my worst habits were in that ama truth or dare game a while back, and I don't really have any typical bad habits. I should have thought of this!

Bad reality TV, only a few shows though (I am referencing America's Next Top Model in this post. *shame*). It's complete schadenfreude, I love when they get mad and cry, it cracks me up. I think this is one of the things that makes me not as nice a person as I should be.

Or maybe it keeps me from mocking real life peoples more?

I'll go with the second theory. I think by mocking the stupid on the tv, that it helps us get it out of our systems, so we don't get into altercations IRL.

People think she's uneducated because of how she talks ... um yes bad grammer usually implies some sort of education fail.
