hello mr. censor.

this is ridiculous. (stole the link from girlwonder.) not only are the nfl and fox banning an ad because it even mentions the "wardrobe malfunction" at last year's super bowl, but fox is also changing the name of their show to the best darn sport show?

fox has also decided to pixelate peter griffin's butt in an upcoming episode of family guy.

c'mon people. aren't we getting a little ridiculous? advertisers and tv folk are now so nervous that overlord powell and the fcc are gonna swoop down and fine them for offending even *one* person, that they are censoring themselves on trivial matters. this is effin' ridic.

it'd be one thing if the budweiser commercial reenacted the "wardrobe malfunction" -- hell, let me stop censoring myself -- janet's boob popping out, but they just allude to the whole incident. and it'd be one thing if the sports show was called the "best fucking sports show ever," but it's just damn. kids hear it all the time in church. ...and hear "bitch" on tv every so often.

::sigh::

this society is going crazy. we're all going to kill ourselves eventually, with the nation so split in extremes -- a society where the porn industry generates $5 billion in profits a year while a tv networks are afraid to say a word that appears in the bible or show a CARTOON butt!

everybody needs to just take a chill pill.
