My god, I'm turning into Andy Rooney!

I have to write about this shit: there's a show on Comedy Central these days called "Too Late with Adam Carrolla" that is, without a doubt, the least funny thing in the history of the universe of the galaxy. It's so unfunny that prolonged exposure to it will actually reduce your ability to be funny or to appreciate humor. If you watch it, the part of your brain that identifies and produces irony, absurdity and other comedic properties will slowly liquify, and is replaced by an image of your mother being raped by Carrot Top, projected onto your corneas.

Also in the field of TV banality, there's a show on FX network called "Over There" that is unique in television history. It is the first weekly television series to depict an ongoing war: it's about U.S. troops in Iraq. The other amazing thing about this show is that, while it's the first televised depiction of an ongoing war in TV history, NO ONE GIVES A SHIT. The show is so obsessed with avoiding taking a stand on the war, or depicting plots that raise any sort of question about the war, that it might as well be about World War Two. Not to mention the fact that the plots are heavy on home-front family soap opera bullshit and recycled premises from cop shows.

The moral of the story: TV makes you retarded.

On the other hand, who wouldn't want Retard Strength?
