There's a reason teenagers and 20-somethings are snotty, cunty, little worthless sacks of human excrement these days. Well, there's a lot of reasons, but I'm going to focus on one: horrible examples on TV.
I don't watch The Hills. Thus, I didn't know who Heidi and Spencer were until recently. They're doing a media blitz right now after appearing on some retarded show called I'm a Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here and have turned up on The Today Show and The View (watch the clips, if you dare).
These two are painfully stupid, ridiculously self-obsessed, unabashed mediawhores. And yet... people watch their shows? Why?! Does their incredibly rude, self-centered behavior resonate with kids? And if so, maybe this should be a time when we realize that art is reflecting poorly on life and maybe responsible people should change the art.
I'm not suggesting we all turn on our transistor radios and listen to some nice Beethoven. But can we at least, as a society, stop paying attention to pathetic, evil creatures like this so that they'll go away (and, as a consequence, stop polluting the minds of kids who think they're hella-cool)? When did fame become an end rather than a means to a meaningful career in film, art, or music?
