Television for Women

I wanted to watch something funny today. Instead I ended up on the Lifetime channel. That is the furthest thing from funny. Let me give you the afternoon's lineup. A girl in junior high that is so bullied she tries to commit suicide; another movie where a 12 year old dies from luekemia. But there is hope, tonights lineup features a young man that commits suicide because he is gay and his parents don't understand him (bonus this one is a true story).

I want to change the channel but it is almost hypnotic. I am in some sort of trance from television induced depression. The only positive aspect of watching this depressing, IQ reducing trash, you are glad the movie is not about your life.

This channel is a drug. There should be some sort of warning label attached to its programming schedule that says you should not mix alcohol with the watching of Lifetime.

I gotta go, there is a movie about a woman whose husband beats her. I may as well get a margarita, this could be a long night.
