HAVEN,T DONE ONE OF THESE IN A WHILE SOOOOO HERE IT COMES !.
"REALITY SHOWS" For the most part, what a bunch of crap , fed to the gullible sheep of the land who have nothing better to do but be spoon fed a bunch of Hollywood/New York crap.
For entertainment value, OK, to each his own I even liked some, loggers, ice road truckers, deadliest catch etc. but some, like storage wars, Pickers (I personely hate that term) scrap wars etc. are totally staged pablem presented as reality.
Some cause damage to real life situations when those with little common sense or real life experience believe them to contain even a modicum of truth.
In the case of pickers and storage wars and even Deadliest Catch have been sued several times by their own participants.
If there ever was a case for the systematic dumming down of America these are a prime example.
Back in the "good old days" I bought storage lockers for $35, and in some cases, got paid for cleaning them out .
Before the internet boom you got got catalytic converters for $5 and they payed good money to haul off their It (servers/computers/telcom).
Yes there really was a time when Leave it to beaver, Happy days, and that 70s show were close to reality, they just left out most of the down side of life but still did show some real life lessons. And I really feel sorry for those of you who never got a chance to life through that era.
I'm sorry but I greave sadly for my lost America. The average wage today is less then the minimum wage in 1965/1969 when adjusted for inflation this is not my opinion, but hard fact.
I truly wish every one in the world could have experienced life as I did but then only half would have survived. Today that would be about 10%. Just my .02. mcw
