Title: Bridezillas
Post by: Grumpmeister on June 13, 2007, 02:09:21 PM
I saw a report about this in the news last night, in order to promote the new series of Bridezillas a wedding cake competition was hosted in Times Square. The winner recieving $25,000.

We still live in a world where children are still starving in third world countries so having one of the tackiest shows on TV pull something like this just to try and get some extra ratings is beyond belief.

Mind you American gluttony is famous the world over, this is the country that has turned eating into an extreme sport. How many oysters/hotdogs/anything else you can think of can you shovel down your throat in 3 minute.

They are all doing it wrong anyway. Small bites mean you can swallow faster.

Have you ever watched that Bridezilla programme?  eeek: viewing.

These are american women wenchy, they dont know the meaning of small bites.

The idea of watching demented high strung megalomaniac brides to be doesnt do anything for me oddly enough.

Is there a Mrs Grumpmeister? Or a GF? She should make you watch it. Mr Wench is supremely grateful that I am not one of them!  eveilgrin:

If it saves just one poor sap from marriage then it has been worth showing. Unfortunately it won't because the poor saps will still think the nookie will continue unabated after the ceremony.

Nope, there was an ex could have been Mrs Grumpmeister but I found that she was a little too 'friendly' so I'm enjoying my freedon at the moment.

Nick, your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to take a photograph on Wenchy when you meet up. As always should you be killed or injured in the line of duty, the secretary will disavow all knowledge of your activties...

I would add the usual 5 second warning about this message self destructing but knowing your track record your entire computer will probably blow up as soon as you touch the keyboard  point:
