Crushing some hearts...in this case I am okay with it!!!

I know that I am about to crush some of your hearts with my sentiments in this blog. For that I am kind of sorry. Not very sorry, because of my feelings, but kind of sorry! I want to dive into the realm of the ridiculous cult of "The Bachelor". My first thought on the show is, "what junk!!!" We are a reality show driven culture when it comes to watching the television. I am okay with some and not fond of others, but for me "The Bachelor" takes the cake.

I wish I had the late Don Lafontaine(movie trailer announcer guy) do a spot for me. "One man, fifty women, one desire, TRUE LOVE!!! He must fall in love with one, even though he will love many. The girls are sweet, driven, and all in love!!! That's right, this season, fifty women will all love one man. This is no fairy tale...it's The Bachelor!!!" Blaaaaah!!!!!!!!!

I mean come on. A show where all the girls fall in love with one man. What a joke. When I think of the show I wonder what kind of message we are sending to our the younger generation. It's easy to fall in love. Go on a television show and find what you are looking for. Please!!!! My lovely wife, which I am still madly in love with despite the fact that she loves the show, is hooked. It drives me crazy, but she is. I know there is lots of drama and people love to pick their favorites, but I just don't see it. Then we have the fact that most of the time the person getting dumped is the next seasons star. They were madly in love and will do it all over again and fall even more in love. Excuse me while I gag!!!

Now this is in all true fun, but I cannot stand the show. So to those of you who watch the show that I know, I am sorry for hating with a passion your Bachelor(ette) shows! It is a piece of me that will never die. You will still watch the show even after reading this, and I am okay with that. I will pray for you!!! LOL.

Peace, Love, and Happiness!

  1. But you have to admit Ryan that he was a jerk! I know you know about what happened! Obviously the show is stupid I watched like three episodes but it's kinda funny. Why would anyone go on a show like that? You never truly get what was planned for you.

  5. LOL Oh dear sweet Ryan, judge away but we all know how much you love UFC and SMACK DOWN and you can't tell me that isn't horribly trashy. Yes I do agree my Bachelor is crap but we all have some of it some where. But I really appreciate you not judging us too harshly, and wait... aren't you the one how looked up what happened on the internet the night after? Oops did you not want people to know that? Sorry!! Love you Babe!!!

  6. To clarify, I was in my office and my coworker and I were watching a recap of T.V. shows and they recapped The Bachelor. I did not seek it out. UFC is not crap, Smack Down may be, but not UFC!!!
