Jersey Shore

Do you know what its like to watch a bunch of wanna-be idiots portray you in the wrong light? First, the tv show Greek made sororities and fraternities across the country look like drama filled morons. Add insult to injury by allowing Jersey Shore to have a second season. Not only are they getting $30,000 per episode to get wasted, get arrested, and get punched... but they do it so classlessly, so distastefully, so horrendously that you can't tear your eyes away from it, even though it causes physical pain. So I wrote a letter to People Magazine this week. Even if they don't print it in the magazine or post it anywhere, I'll still get my opinion out by posting it here...
RE: Jersey Shore

Dear Editor,

Every time I see “Snooki” in your magazine I gag a little. It takes no talent to do what those Drama Queens do. Snooki’s dad commented in the Aug. 9th issue that his daughter “accomplished her life-long (22 years?) dream” of being on TV (if that’s what you call it). There are obvious reasons why they wouldn’t put her on TV, unless it was for a show like this. As a real Jersey Girl who spent countless weekends fist pumping and partying it up at the Jersey Shore-not just in the summer, but year ‘round- the show and its new reality TV “celebrities” make it look like a trashy, taste-less, and drama filled thing to participate in instead of exciting and fun. I can’t believe someone thought it was a good idea to put that article back-to-back with the ‘Coming Home’ from war one. Heroes should be recognized and praised, idiots and classless hussies should be ignored. I’d rather live my own Jersey Shore than read about the ‘lift and point’ or see that horrendously oversized poof anymore.

P.s. When they deliver People to the office I make sure I grab it first so the ladies around the office can read it before we put it out in the waiting room-where children could destroy it. That’s how important it is to us.
