Is This A Reality TV Moment?

I was flipping through some channels on TV the other day and there was a reality show which caught my attention. Frankly, I don’t watch reality shows too often because most of the people on them are totally screwed up. Well, this clip just helped affirm my beliefs.

This girl was yelling at this guy (her boyfriend) for kissing a co-worker 2 years ago. Apparently they all worked at the same place and the guy never told his girlfriend that he had kissed this other girl (co-worker). So she (the girlfriend) was all upset about it. The guy was baffled as this was 2 years ago before he even met her (his current girlfriend). And so I wasted 10 minutes watching this silly argument between the two. It was so stupid, I couldn’t believe it – and what’s even worse, I couldn’t believe I was watching it.

Sometimes though, you just need some stupidity in other people’s lives in order for you to appreciate how good your life is. Let me ask you a question though; are there things in your life that can be put on a reality show? In other words, are you doing anything that if you watched yourself on TV doing it, you’d say, “what the freak was I thinking? I’m a freaking idiot”

Ah, things that make you go hmmm… Well the next time you find yourself in an argument with someone or you find your blood pressure rising, stop for a second and pause. Take a deep breath and ask yourself, “is this a realit

y TV moment I’m about to commit?” If so, I suggest you just shake your head and walk away. Or just look at the other person and say, “You’re FIRED!” And then walk away. It’ll save you a lot of time and angst, and you won’t look like a fool if someone sees you doing it.

Think about it. You’re on Candid Camera!
