Reflections In A Flubber Room

What you perceive is what it is.

Food TV

No, not the network, since I've allowed the cable service to lapse.

I'm talking about free-for-viewing broadcast programming, in particular one compelling bit of weekly nastiness that is definitely not for the weakly.

I wasn't really paying attention to Gordon Ramsey and his not-so-merry group of grabasstic pieces of culinary shit this evening (on FOX, the first network to drop the word "ass" from its list of Words You Can't Say On Television, but who still sees fit to bleep over 50% of Chef Ramsey's speech every week), as I was wading through mountains of old videotapes and CDs and dust that I'm trying to organize and pack away. It seems that they were all more pissed off than usual, judging from the amount of screaming and bleeping. The Big-Dumb-Sexist-Pig-Looks-Like-An-OSU-Linebacker character offered to quit and go home in the middle of service, then was cajoled into not quitting, then got voted off anyway. Good effin' riddance. I predict the little Asian guy with the glasses and the Mohawk will win.
