LOL! I was reading an article someone wrote regarding all of these reality shows, including Honey Boo Boo, the Kardashians, etc.

The writer asks, "When did it become normal in America to be white trash?"

I think many of the reality shows are hyped. I don't think this guy is hyping anything up though. Bleah.

It was something I saw on TV about people who have money but are CHEAP! One guy had hardly any furniture. His kitchen table was a fold up table with fold up chairs. Mattresses were on the floors. He spoke about how he gave his son $100 for his birthday, took the family out to eat, and made his son pay for it (came to just over $100). LOL! I think it was on Rachael Ray or something like that.

Yeah, I saw that too. I thought some of these guys were on a daytime talk show too. I remember Rachael Ray or someone asking them for cheap tips. LOL!

Many of them are, like REPO shows, PAWN shows, most of the stuff on TRUTV. Once I found out they were fake, I found a new reality show I love....


WRESTLING!

For real! I think she was just kidding though.

Well, ya'll have a good one. Have to go and get my windshield replaced after a dump truck threw a rock almost into my lap. Scared me to death! Ugh!
