Another case of some idiot trying to change the broadcast media and pick up some bucks at the same time.
Ya know, I don’t find Fear Factor to be all that entertaining. I’d just as soon not see people eat nasty things. My solution? Turn the channel or hit the off button.
Hear’s a clue for you Mr Aitken -don’t let it get your blood pressure up. Don’t watch it till you vomit. Don’t get so upset that you get dizzy and whack your head. Use one tenth of the common sense found in a sea slug and turn the fucking TV OFF!
Can’t anyone take responsibility for their own actions anymore? All you have to do is watch a few commercials for Fear Factor to know that people will be doing gross things. TVs have both off switches and channel changers. If the show nauseates you, don’t watch it.
Now this idiot feels that he deserves $2.5 million plus his “paid interviews.” I hope the judge makes him pay court costs for both sides.
How many years has this show been on? At least four or more. They were eating animal penis’s a couple of days ago, I was sickened, then I was like, “duh, I can just turn it,” so that’s what I did. Everyone knows Fear Factor is a gross-out show.
I seriously hope this idiot does not get one red cent.
What I’d like to know is, where is the Fear Factor in eating gross stuff? Afraid of barfing? Afraid of eating crap and still not winning anything? Afraid of getting rat hair stuck between your teeth? I think they should change the name of the show to “Gross Factor” and just be done with it.
I watched one episode, where they were making tank-top clad buxom females eat (chew now, not swallow whole) live, big, slimy slugs.
I gagged, changed the channel, and realized this not going to be Must See TV for me.
Unlike Mr. Aitken, I am not held hostage by the tv. We must feel sorry for him…think of his helplessness! His impotence! His complete inability to think or decide for himself! What a way to go through life.
The OP use You’re incorrectly in the title. He then posted in #2 complaining that he did not use it correctly in the title. BubbaDog is both the OP and the one complaining about the use of you’re/your.
“Thank you for agreeing to be interviewed. My first question is, is this a joke?”
“No, I am serious.”
“No really, it’s a joke.”
“I assure I am seriously pursuing this lawsuit.”
“No, that can’t be right, because it is the lawsuit only a infinitely idiotic jackass would file, you aren’t an inifinitely indiotic jackass, are you?”
“Ummmm, no…”
“See, I knew it was a joke.”
“No, no, it’s real.”
“Wait a minute you just said you weren’t an idiotic jackass and now you are saying you are? Which is it?”
“The lawsuit is real and I am not a jackass.”
“Oh no you don’t, none of that lawyer-speak with me. It is clear on the face of it this lawsuit is bullshit and must either be a joke or the product of a delusional barely functional IQ. Please help me out here.”
Uh…judging by the basis/plots of many of today’s reality shows, I’d say that it’s the exact technically-correct message they’re sending. These people (who participate in reality shows) apparently ARE willing to do “anything beyond reason” for cold, hard, cash.
But how in the world does he think it’s against their will? They don’t have to do squat, if they don’t mind not being paid said cash.
I think that every television service provider should use a Pay-Per-View sort of method on every single channel, where every television show gets a description and to watch it you have to confirm that you’re sure that you want to watch it with a second action that demonstrates your desire to watch the program. That way nobody can say that they were traumatized by what they saw because they were unaware of what was on and waste the courts’ time with frivolous lawsuits like this one.
Since people can’t or won’t take responsibility for themselves on their own, then I guess Big Brother should have to compel them to do it. Idiots.
“To have the individuals on the show eat (yes) and drink dead rats was crazy and from a viewer’s point of view made me throw-up as well an another in the house at the same time.”
Huh?
