Calm down, Buckaroo. You're not paying for it - unless, of course, you fired off a bunch of text messages to get in your vote.
Seriously, I agree - I just wanted to be an instigator here.
Dude, a couple of points. The Today Show has been doing this for awhile now - I think this is the third or fourth one. Two - They hold a contest between like six couples and usually Ken and Barbie win. Three- The Today Show freakin sucks anyway. The only one worth anything is Ann Curry and poor Meredith Viera. Don't be surprised if Ann jumps ship and does Dateline as her main gig.
Matt Lauer. This guy is a hack. His interviews are painful to watch. I mean, truly painful. I thought Janet Jackson was going to punch him in the face today. And when Janet Jackson really believes she can take you in a fight, then you need to shoot yourself in the head.
Personally, it's so bad now, I watch CBS because Julie is hot and then just drone out and get to work.
*shrug* I don't watch it.
The thing that's been riling me recently are the informecials for Miracle Spring Water. There's this douchbag guy saying that his Miracle Spring Water will do awesome stuff like, cure people of crack addiciton, cure some other crippling illness, make something go your way, miraculously drop money into your bank accout... Basically it can solve any problem someone might have.
The infomercial does say that it's free, but I can't believe it really is so... I think how it works is after they send you this water they hit you up for donations and these horribly desperate people feel obliged to donate.
Is it wrong that this made my laugh hysterically:
"And that wasn't the part that irritated me the most!"
You're so funny when you are pissed off! I love it when you're a-rantin'!!
I agree with you Phil. Networks have big balls to charge viewers for text messages and phone in votes.
And the ungrateful people accepting the free all expenses paid wedding, it should have stopped right there when the bride turned her nose up. A Monty Hall type game show host should appear and say, if you don't like this one, you can choose whats behind door number TWO.....And show them the exit.
First of all, all that showing they do in the show is also free commercial for the brands of wedding dress, wedding rings, ... . So the so called free stuff pays itself by the free commercial they get.
Second i completely agree with you that they should do it for poor people and not for some wealthy friends of one of the workers or bosses of the station.
I think that if we were to get married on the Today show... they would be charging alot more for the votes :D
... ok i dont know what that means but it sounds cool so play along!
Ok..is it strange that I knew what you meant?
They'd need to charge more for the votes to make up for the costs of your particular...tastes?
