I have created a sleuth miracle!
IT IS THE UNHIJACKABLE THREAD!
Go ahead and try, but this thread is about anything and nothing, all at the the same time!
This is the place where Al can talk about world domination, Crunch can worship David Hasselhoff, SS can try and find even more complicated questions for his pub quizzes, Nikkie can advertise for Tim Tams, cfm can troll for more Sharpie victims, JR can beg for the chance to win Bobo back, and bedazzling can be a way of life!
So go off, rant and rave, talk about anything, i don't care, I just wanted to see my avatar on the page (when its actually me anyways)
So go ahead, I dare you all to try and hijack me :)

I have to agree with you, Ceres. The Deadliest Catch is absolutely the most awesome "reality" show I've ever seen (I put the word reality in quotes not because it's not real, but because I sincerely hesitate to group it with the insipid garbage that most people know as reality shows).

I like it too. If you had asked me 10 years ago whether I'd be addicted to a TV show about like 8 grown men catching crabs with each other while isolated on a boat, I'd probably have just giggled self-consciously and run off to the ointment aisle. But here we are...

You guys obviously haven't watched mantracker. I mean how many people can look at a rock and then decide what direction the prey was walking in?

Ooh! I can! Well... they'd have to paint a little arrow on it, or arrange the rocks in an arrow, or something... but still. *cough* Okay, so that IS pretty cool. :-)
I think the reason Deadliest Catch is so good is that it's not people stabbing each other in the back, it's people doing something that they must do, and fighting the elements to do it - having to band together to get through it. Man vs. (wild) Nature is a great challenge.
My take on what Survivor really should have been: set up a bunch of cameras (unmanned and hidden) on a smallish, non-populated isle; tell people, 'At the end of one month, you must all be alive and (fairly) healthy, or no one wins anything.' Promote teamwork, a group of people working together to overcome great odds. No giving out Hummers and voting people off, no stupid fake contests.
It's not a great society that rewards people for lying, scheming, and backstabbing.

Biggie: that's a bummer that you don't enjoy watching people "surrounding a hot-tub straddling makeout session and drunken fights" because that's totally my life. And I know plenty of people who live vicariously through me! (I got Vegas pics up on MySpace, btw). Does anyone enjoy Flavor of Love Charm School? It reminds me of high school...... we didn't steal pictures, though. We jacked people for their jackets and phones...... Ah, the good old days. I enjoy watching some getto broads acting like fools. It fascinates me. Especially if they fight and clothes come off. Come on, crunch, can I get an amen?

I was looking at my avatar and then it occured to me that he looks like he's wearing a tupe.

*adjusts wombat-hair wig and stares at yoyo*
Biggie's such a liar liar thong on fire - I totally have hands. And they're beautiful, too, if you can see past the 'cuffs, friction smoke and chunks of hurl.
Amen sister Cen. Let's you and me crash a high school afterprom party, chuck toasters into the jacuzzi, tell 'Chandalier' that 'Shaniqua' called her mom all that and a bag of Free-to-Lay chips, then lie back on a busted lawn chair with some gold Cuervo and giggle at the jiggle.

You're so smart, crunch! Why didn't I think of that? You know what atmosphere is REALLY hostile and getto? Any office with lots of girls in it (like a dentist's office, or chiropractor's office or something). The chicks are around each other so much, their rags start to come at the same time. Plus, someone's always jealous of another being the doctor's pet. Not to mention the stress from the a-hole patients. All you gotta do is start a rumor. Watch the hair fly and the fingernails come out.

*LOVE* that you're in health care now :P
From how you describe it, it sounds a lot like your time in the LA bar scene, but with better, and more legal drugs and gropings administered by dainty-handed educated men rather than guys who found security work after slipping through the clutches of that 'Dogg the Bounty Hunter' guy.
Y'done moved on up!
