That's one way to get rid of all TV
 

European Union commissioners are looking to ban television programs that depict women in stereotypical roles and all advertising that does not “respect human dignity,” reports the Financial Times.

A draft of the new law obtained by the Times says that while respecting freedom of expression, sex discrimination and affronts to human dignity should be banned from media and advertising. An explanatory note says: "The purpose of this provision is to avoid throughout all forms of mass media all stereotypical portrayals of women and men, as well as any projection of unacceptable images of men and women affecting human dignity and decency in advertisements."


Which leaves what programs to watch????????????????????

:wtf:

Reality destiny
 

robustpuppy, you're destined for Survivor:

If you're going to put yourself on display for the world to see, you might as well get paid! That's right, your show is Survivor, the Super Bowl of reality shows. Okay, so technically, you'll only be pocketing $650,000 after taxes, but that's pretty good coin for a little camping trip.

I'm surprised. I thought I'd get the Real World.

Ummm, maybe "Teletubbies"? They're not human...

P(but then, they *are* an affront to human dignity)J

reality show quiz
 

I got Survivor. I think because I like to go camping. But not with a bunch of obnoxious yahoos.

I also watched WPT after stumbling on the travel channel. I liked the winner's little skippy dance at the end.

I just came across this interesting article on irony, in which the author describes the misuse of the term "irony," and make clear why this misuse is not in fact ironic, but rather just stupid.

Slate on Metrosexuals
 

Slate, jumping off the NYTimes piece, also has something posted on metrosexuality. It borders on beating a dead horse to post but I loved this line: You can be girly and a pig, watch a Pamela Anderson cartoon while doing your nails.

I'm hurt
 

Look, Skinny. I don't care if you call me old. I am. I don't care if you accuse me of ogling young coeds, even if you're too fucking assjack stupid to spell the word correctly. I don't even care if you call me a buzz kill.

But I do not think I'm forever young, asshat. I am old. I like it. It gives me perspective. It gives me judgement. It reduces the time I have to spend on my hair. Best of all, it allows me to ignore stupid shit that the younger crowd thinks is so fucking important. Like appletinis, big ass clunky shoes that look amazingly like what janitors wear, dating in general, and worrying about whatever restaurant is trendy at the moment.

Call me a Peter Pan again, and I'll get ahold of your Mama and she'll have your ass chicken hawking in Times Square all summer vacation, you little piece of shit.

Love,

Taxwonk

Awesome. A total shot in the dark on my part and I get this kind of reaction. I still got it, baby!

But if you're going to correct me on the spelling of "coed," learn how to spell "judgment."

reality show quiz
 

OK, TF, looks like I'll be on AI with you. This really is a stupid quiz because no one has agreed with their results. Personally, I can't sing. Never could. I hate the recording industry (tying themes together) and I would hate being on stage. Looks like we'll be up there with stage fright together - and I promise not to dye my hair pink and wear "body inappropriate" clothing.
Maybe I was chosen because of the aversion to camping answers to those questions.

Spooky, I dare ya to flame PLF
 

Well, Spooky, you're not alone. The following makes no sense at all:

Greedy, Greedy, you're destined for Fear Factor

"What a wuss, I could totally do that." Of course you could, that's why your reality show is Fear Factor.

You're the fearless type — always the one jumping off the highest rock, riding the biggest wave, taking the biggest dare. You are fiercely competitive, most likely to turn a nice dinner into an eating contest. Sure it scares your friends when you play chicken on a two-lane highway, but it's good training for your reality show debut. Read more about your reality show...



So, Spooky, I guess I'll see you on the show.

reality show quiz
 

I watched part of it this weekend. How do they know what cards the players have in their hands?

It is fascinating, but I need to have a better understanding of the lingo and the rules of the game before I can truly appreciate the skill involved. I loved the foreign guy with the Walkman, singing along to his tunes in Spanish.

I indicated that I liked road trips and eMode decided I should be on the Bachelor show.

New Magazine for Gambling Metrosexual FBers
 

The LA Times reports on the new JAQK magazine:

JAQK (that's jack, ace, queen, and king) mag, due out next spring. His target reader is a gambling guy who likes to spend -- not bank -- his winnings. "I can see us doing stories on traveling in the south of France on 5,000 euros a day," says a JAQK editor, "or taking a two-week trip on the Trans-Siberian Railway or visiting all the best martini bars in the world."
