9th Circle of hell reserved for R. Murdock

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'T')he "Who's Your Daddy?" show, in which a young woman given up for adoption as a child gets a $100,000 (52,000 pound) prize for picking out her biological father from a line-up, is the latest in America's obsession with reality TV programming.

Tune in Jan 3 to see the final scrap of dignity stripped from our culture.
The problem is, of course, that not only is economics bankrupt, but it has always been nothing more than politics in disguise... economics is a form of brain damage.

Sorry Aaron, but losing that final scrap came long ago for us. :(

I saw a preview for that show the other day and was totally speechless. What HAS become of us? The same for that stupid show where they do platic surgery for those women ("The Swan" I think).

It's the end of the World as we know it...and I feel fine... (REM)

It serves it's purpose to keep the "masses" dumb.

I'd rather have non moralistic japanese tv though to keep the masses dumb.

Too late. It is already here

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'S')AN FRANCISCO, California (AP) -- The first cloned-to-order pet sold in the United States is named Little Nicky, a 9-week-old kitten delivered to a Texas woman saddened by the loss of a cat she had owned for 17 years.

Sadly, Canadians don't have their own culture. French-Canadians realise this and cling on to their completly ridiculous pseudo-french culture to compensate.

Excuse me Sir,but..french canadians are in North America since almost 400 BLOODY YEARS, WE have far enough time to make a culture by ourselfs even before the silly Red English Uniforms came to piss us :twisted: !

Hell,even the God (sorry to use Your name in vain) damn French from France just one or two decades after the first colonists called us savages because we already began to build a new identity away from the French..Where do you think the expression "Maudit Francais" come from :lol: !??

I have to admit,our Elite try to build a pseudo-french culture,you're partly right..But even if most french canadian from Quebec have forggot part of their History since the sixties,WE have a rich heritage just waiting to come back on track ! Many of us remember what is really is the be Canadian..even if we let the English stole it away from us :evil: !

I'm maybe part of a minority(my ancestors were one's of the very first to come in the New World),but i will not permit someone to say BS crap about my Heritage when he don't know what he's talking about without saying anything :shock: !

Am i understood :x !?

Now,since a good boy ,i apology for the easy shot again the American culture and i hope you'll do the same for mine :oops:..

Take care...
