GWR FM (Bristol)
Presenter: What happened in Dallas on November 22, 1963? Contestant : I don't know, I wasn't watching it then.
Duh, I know I am a Brit and on my 16th Gin but actually one does not understand what was meant by the Shekels story. Is it an American ' joke ' - if so it is not funny but of course so many things American are not either!
Support Peru - wear a Bowler! Yes its more Gin Time! Yippeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! Hic!
I try to exchange fifty shekels at the Doha airport, the clerk told me: Sorry Sir, they are over rated, I can not exchange them today, maybe tomorrow.
At London airport, the Amex Exchange clerk told me: only for American dollars, we will not exchange them for pounds or Euros.
I told myself, I'm screw with this fifty shakiras!!
I hear St. Patrick was an Englishman!"
Shurely u mean Shittal Shelpi - what a corker! Yippppppeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! Hic! Gin and boiled eggies for brekkers! Support Peru - Wear a Bowler!
Britexpat, how could they be from the UK when you used the word "yank" which is a derogatory term against Americans? Here is the quote: "Yesterday,I was watching a Yank "news Show" /... ..."
Look at Jade Goody.. She has made millions , just because of flahing her boobs on Big Brother..
Television is just for advertising everything, including people.
If you could choose one characteristic that would get you through life, choose a sense of humour.
You know media, endorsements, fa la la and such...

ALL Big Brother stars??? Like who? I can't think of one thats an actor! Shilpa Shatty was an actress before big Brother, I don't think Bollywood stars are there for their acting prowess....
God! Have you seen Shilpa Setty in a movie??? God, she acts horrible!

No, they don't have exclusive rights to this section of community. The examples I gave in the thread are from the UK..
To be honest, I despair of reality shows like Big Brother. Obviously, morons are picked to enhance the ratings. They want their 15 minutes of fame and act idiotically , whilst many of the audience / viwers assume that this the norm in society..
It seems that we like to glorify stupidity..
Lol. You made me laugh. Many thanks. Unfortunately this is the state of affairs nowadays. Like you said, they are making role models out of morons. And we don't have anything to stop them. See how they glamourise morons in that Big Brother show. It's gonna get worse. Some societies are already damaged. It's a shame we know it but can't do much to change it.
Btw..remember one of our ministers of education who could not get 7x9 right on a live tv interview? Oh dear. That was a disgrace!
hahaha...speaking of stupidity, right under "Post new comment" it says "Your name: Zayd"
Stupidity is all around us!
Networks try to influence people into being a geek in their form...but behind the camera it's all fake...
"Everything in this book may be wrong." Illusions: The Adventures of The Reluctant Messiah by Richard Bach
But what do you expect? Television has become exclusively for entertainment and unfortunately most people don't consider education to be entertaining. The same is happening with books now. Go into a book store (assuming you can find one in Qatar) and ask them what are their newest books are...you'll probably get something like "Skiing for Morons", "Idiots Guide to Politics", "Basic Sociology for the Neanderthal" and "Cosmo's 2009 Bedside Astronomer".
I agree with you.. The so called "reality" shows are damaging society and making role models out of morons..
...and people are addicted to copy-paste internet formats...
Well, we can exclude britexpat fer awhile. ;-p

The interviewer asked a sixteen year old, who was impregnated by a 14 year old "And how did you find out you were pregnant?"
Reply: "We used a home pregnancy test"

Need I say more?
