The Horror! The Horror!

So my wife decided to have pizza for supper this evening. In retrospect, a very bad decision.

I got stuck at the pizzeria. They were awful busy. Everyone in town wanted pizza for the Stupor Bowl.

But I was also stuck with Stupor Bowl Pre-game on the big screen. All that babbling! Hours and hours of it! Even the flimsiest pretense of dignity cast aside. It wouldn’t stop. I could feel some of my brain cells dying painful deaths; I could hear their pitiful little screams for mercy.

All this, plus “Bloomberg for President” commercials.

It was worse than being stuck in a doctor’s waiting room with The View. Yes, I know The View ranks very high in sheer hideousness. But Super-Bowl Pre-game is even worse.

They had promos for shows that would come on after the game. Shows to dissolve your self-respect. Shows to make your brain melt and seep out your ears. Shows that make Let’s Make a Deal look like King Lear. Shows that help to assassinate our culture.

The horror, the horror…

  1. Almost makes me glad I stay in the peaceful town of Lockerbie in Scotland.. No soccer crowds etc. The only thing you’ll have probably heard about is old Boris Johnson & Jeremy Corbyn shouting the odds about a certain’B’ word. Oh yeah and we mustn’t forget Miss Sturgeon ( Scotland’s first minister) she wants a referendum 😂

  2. One of the things I love about my dentist is that there’s no television in her waiting room — just magazines and coffee-table books.

    I threw away my last television in 1998 when I realized I hadn’t turned it on since 1991.

  3. With all the steaming servers coming online, degenerative programming is exploding. It will prove interesting to watch how much chaos our culture can cope with before God puts down His foot.
