I just want to say that I think the World Series of Pop Culture is totally fixed. OK, not totally fixed, but partially fixed. The producers seem to stack the questions for the highest drama. If one team starts to dominate, they throw easy questions at the other team and harder questions at the dominating team. I guess they have an interest in making the show last for 30 minutes, but I feel that a grave injustice is being perpetrated on America. (at least on VH1-watching America)
In other tv news, Jay and I discovered a great new game to play with the tv. Comcast On Demand has a “dating on demand”feature, in which hapless singletons tell a little bit about themselves for the camera. I guess the point is that if you are a single person, you can look at these videos, and if you see someone who captures your fancy, you can contact them. But that is not nearly as fun as playing imaginary matchmaker. I feel a little bad that there was a lot of fun being had at the expense of the hapless singletons, who were split about 50/50 between normal-seeming and total-losery. Obviously, that’s horrible, and Jay and I have clearly damaged our karma, but ohmigod SO FUN.
