As it happens, I'm actually going to the Jersey shore for a few days.   While waiting for my ride wake up, I watched a little TV and stumbled on "Jersey Shore."  

Now, I don't live in a plastic bubble anymore.   I have heard of the show.   But like when the doctor says "just a little further," there's a difference in knowing what's coming and actually experiencing it.

If I was creating the "Jersey Shore" I would have called it "Tan, Stupid and Ugly."   Just watching the show gives you a hangover.  I'm thinking of having my children watch a full season so they can see the dangers of steorides and inhaling hair spray.  Like those movies of car accidents they made us watch in Driver's Ed.

In the episode I watched, Snookie, Cookie, and Puke-ey were modeling outfits they brought at an adult toy store.  Puke-ey was sporting an leather bikini that made her look just slightly less slutty than she looked before she changed.  Snookie wore some pink monstorsity which, unfortunately, showed off her (be)wares.   I mean, I know we all have a tendency to slow down when we see a car accident, but some instincts are better ignored.
