New TLC Fall Lineup

So TLC has a show about balloons? Am I missing some kind of roundabout joke?

From the website:

The Unpoppables follows the quirky daredevils of New Balloon Art as they wow clients with the most innovative balloon sculptures ever. In each half-hour episode, they’ll travel to a new city, plan the week’s event and scramble to get everything done.

"Quirky Daredevils?" Seriously, balloons are about as daring or innovative as spin art.

With my powerful intuition I have divined TLC's upcoming fall lineup of shows:

Say I Do to the Poon:

Four Pimps and their prize Hos compete for each others love and affection in this groundbreaking documentary style program shot completely in 3D.

America's Next Top Socialist:

Political intrigue and drama are abound in this scathing look at America's socialist party in the run up to the 2012 Presidential election.

Four Funerals:

Travel to exotic locations and extravagant funeral parlors as competitors compete against one another to see whose loved one has the best final sendoff. With Executive producer McG, Four Funerals is certain to entertain and delight.

My Strange Pet:

Strange Pets are profiled.

Police Women of Tikrit:

The Popular TLC series is back! What problems will face this years group of emboldened officers on the mean streets of one of Iraq's thriving population centers.

Three Reasons Why The New Strokes Song is Awesome, and Two Reasons it SUCKS

Why it is good:

1. It has a harmony.

2. It has guitars.

3. Also, drums.

Why it sucks:

1. The mixing.

2. I can't stop listening. I may have realized The Strokes are my Ke$ha; Music that is incredibly disingenuous yet at the same time utterly compelling (to their respective audience).

Man, sometimes I love Fox News. I think it was Bill Hemmer, although I'm not the best at face recognition in the glimpses I get when I walk into my Dad's room and he has the channel on, but Hemmer stated "100 billion dollars in aid over 30 years and what has it gotten us... a 17 percent [US] approval rating"

Hmm, 100 billion dollars in Aid? Aid? Really, more like 100 billion dollars in bribes straight into Mubarak's pocket in exchange for stabilizing the area, and staying out of our business in the region. Maybe Egyption public opinion of the US isn't great because those same "Aid" dollars helped Mubarak stay in power as a functioning dictator? I mean, just a thought.

Let me throw out a hypothetical here, let's say the Chinese decide they love Obama (Which frankly they do), so they spend billions of dollars in political campaigns making sure that he get's reelected (and while they are at it get the constitution amended to allow for more then two terms) and serves for another 25 years. You think the American public would suddenly embrace the Chinese people and government with open arms? You think the Fox News pundits would break bread at the same table? (Well probably since the Chinese will probably end up owning News Corp at some point in the next 25 years).

It is understandable that Egypt hates us, stop trying to justify with your stupid rhetoric that they should love us because of the amount of money that we have pumped into the Egyptian government (The same government that has oppressed them) over the pas 30 years.

Alright, I've said my peace.
