So hope she doesn't win

Yeah she's a little b!tch, and the story has been getting quite a lot of attention here. The judge has already thrown out part of her case. I, and many others hope that he follows suit with the rest of her case!

The basis of her case is slightly odd and stems from a NJ law that does not automatically make 18 year olds independent adults.

Question is, has TLC already offered her a contract?

Just realized, the paradigm has changed from will she be posing in Playboy/The Sun to is she getting a reality TV show.

Could it be any worse then honey boo boo or whatever they call that show?

I remember when TLC stood for The Learning Channel and actually aired things you could learn from, now no clue what it stands for as the only learning going on is how to be a red neck, or use coupons...

Pulaski

If her lawsuit fails, perhaps she could fund college herself at Duke ?

sadly not un-typical of the youth of today of America (and maybe elsewhere) I cant tell you how often on the local facebook page there is one posting ISO (Im seeking out) 'a job'.......and they expect one to come walking up to them !!

They are all wannabe TV stars/kardashians/ Jordans etc......I happened to turn to something yesterday and there was some Z lister (Farrah ??) who said when asked what she did , and I quote "Im a kinda TV star and author, I have 2 books coming out , its a trilogy (really) where one is a racy sex novel and the other is on Christian parenting"
the other person just gave her a WTF look.................

I realise now how lucky I am with my kids

I hope they throw her a$$ in jail for wasting the courts time! That won't happen of course. So I hope the judge tosses it out (and humiliates her somehow), and then makes her responsible for her parents' legal fees to boot. She just needs to grow the eff up and find out what it's really like in the real world.

I wonder how many of today's kids will take care of their paarents in old age? Pretty sure she's one who won't.

We said the same about A&E channel. It used to be arts and entertainment. Here in Australia it's all "reality" shite like Bering sea gold and doomsday preppers.

Hard to tell if TV producers are dumbing down the programs because people are getting dumber, or if people are getting dumber because TV producers are dumbing down the programs.

Beaverstate

Perhaps the dumb ones are still watching?

Redwing

Same with the History channel. Nothing to do with history.

Pulaski

And TruTV, which is anything but.

Hotscot

I think that's where we watch Vikings...which is fun.

Steerpike

While on this train of thought - whatever happened to MTV and VH-1?! I used to go there to actually watch music videos! Silly me ...
