Let me guess, another from the college level advanced creative writing class for seniors in high school being presented by her as a normal everyday class book (and hinting it’s in 4th grade classes).

If you’re upset a senior in high school might be voluntarily exposed to this material in his college prep class, you need to move into the Westboro Baptist Church compound and hate sex and freedom along with them, leave the public out of your puritanical shariah insanity.

You get worse language on prime time broadcast tv, WAY worse on say, Howard Stern, or Jersey Shore…this is maybe pg 13+ content, not xxx….and guaranteed not required reading. Get a grip.

Can you blame him? He was on his way to the Jersey shore! Probably Seaside Heights... <_<

Who bailed out the banks - Obama

To make things worse Obama increased the debt 10 Trillion more than ALL fucking presidents combined. Talk about ruining the economy Its a noose on the necks of Americans for generations

The root cause was Democrats wanting home ownership for more people, which happen to be those who could not afford a house. Dodd/Frank led the way . Republicans tried a few time to curb/ change it but failed. Banks complied and wrote bad loans and sold them to larger banks and they packaged these bad loans to look attractive and the house of cards tumbled.

Katrina -- You seriously want to go there--- New Orleans and the storm that hit Jersey shore and Long Island ... Fucking disaster years later --- Yep your boy really hit it out of the park with the help didn't he?

9/11 waning completely ignored. Bullshit.. Clinton had Bin Laden had full intelligence to get him and did nothing.

I don't know if you have you head in the sand or up your ass.

@chingalera

True. They have smart people having fun—we have Jersey Shore. They occasionally say a cuss word—we have Honey Boo Boo. Which one is more offensive?

This makes the Jersey Shore look like tea time with grandma. The gross trashy hooker carpool video has made me feel unwell.

You can be prejudiced without being racist, but all racists are prejudiced.

Like, if you see some white guy, who looks like he just walked off the set of Jersey Shore, you shouldn't immediately think he's a doucheba...

...ok, never mind, bad example.

Just once I would like the cops to hear about the person who they want dead, and destroy the tapes and go kill that person. Just ya know for the heck of it, I mean she can't be completely wrong, I'll bet that guy is awful, probably likes Jersey Shore.

This is actually a true story... about Guidos and Guidettes hunting drunk meatballs on the Jersey shore.

I was once sitting it my couch watching TV with a nice Coke and Scotch in front of me and then Jersey Shore came on the TV and I couldn't find the remote. It was LITERALLY like being in a chinese slave labor camp.

I'm also sure they play it up for the cameras

>> ^Kofi:

I'm going to defend this show... somewhat.
The dad loves his family and works hard. He does a lot to provide for them.
Honey boo-boo is a funny kid that is not merely the mirror of her mothers unfulfilled childhood desires. She has some genuine fight in her and isn't a nightmare "me me me" kid that you might expect.
The other kids seem pretty well adjusted.
The mum, well, she has issues but she isn't controlling or nasty.
Their diet is fucking dreadful!
Don't get me wrong. This is freak-show television but they are nice, even lovable, freaks without the bitchiness and machismo one has come to expect thanks to shows like Jersey Shore or Real Housewives.

Yossarian i couldn't agree more.

Very british ceremony, and probably very much FOR the british people. I don't doubt that many of the reasons i enjoyed it will not be relevant to others. To take the stadium from fields of green to industrial towers was great, especially showing all of the people who were there (willing or not) to help the transition - boats arriving from the west indies and such, the suffragettes. To see the growth of britain and eventually the forging of the rings. I think the ring forging was one of the coolest things i've seen.

It was different, and at times anti-political, anti british. Because being anti british is a british trait. Thank you boyle for showing what pride in our country looks like. The NHS and great ormond street, these are things to be proud of. Our humour, our invention, our quirkyness, our gifts to the arts. If only this would inspire more pride in our health sector. We used to lead the world with our NHS till the tories got their hands on it, maybe we can once again if we take PRIDE in its quality; show the world what a free health system can be. Come on, britain. Where's all the pride gone?

Even though i wasn't such a fan of the singing and dancing and texting, i understand why it was there (a tribute to what we've given the world in the technology and arts departments) and i think choosing Danny Boyle was a masterstroke. I haven't seen anything like it in my life before, and thank god it was finally something to come out of britain to be proud of. At least the british public knows how to represent britain on the world stage. If you want to know how great "great britain" really is, watch our HUMBLE ceremony.

We could lead the world again by showing them what humility, cooperation and pride can do; no more money in politics, no corrupt bankers. Civilised society and fair play were once our specialities.

Btw interrupting a tribute to one of the major bombings of the "anti terrism era" led by bush no less is if you ask me outright insulting to the memory of the dead. To cut to a worthless talking head like ryan seacrest as well? I'm sorry that britain couldn't hold people's attention for longer than 3 minutes whilst we mourn the loss of our loved ones. I hope the silence for the wars didn't bore anyone either. We all payed dearly to defend this island, this link to the theatre of war that eventually inspired the world to fight with us against wrongdoing and against the odds; the least we might expect from the rest of the world is their attention span for a bit.

It was deemed good enough that china commissioned a stage version to be shown in beijing. I bet seacrest won't be getting a call up. Anyone who didn't like it - switch over to Big Brother, Celebrity Love Island, X's Got Talent, Geordie/Jersey Shore or E! now. I'm sure you'll be mesmerised. You might even find ryan seacrest presenting one of them!!
