Reality television sucks; it has suctioned the brains of many, including people I respect. I don't fault them. I see them as victims.
I was attacked by it one day. For one whole hour, I found myself drawn by its forces in much the same way ones eyes might be drawn to a train wreck. You know the feeling... It's when you really don't want to see something, but the overwhelming horror won't let you look away.
At the end of that hour I was able to walk away without a discernible depletion of gray matter. I've seen the train wreck, and I've moved on.
