Accepting Reality.

One of the problems with our digital Freeview TV channels in Britain is that they’re loaded with commercial breaks and tired, repetitive trailers for ‘flagship’ programmes. The current biggie is Suits. Every time there’s a commercial break, we have to have the same old scenes from freggin’ Suits – over and over and over again...

What I find interesting is that, if the ads and trailers are to be believed, all of the beautiful young women in all of the world (at least, the ones who don’t know what a gin joint is,) are endlessly attracted to pretty, plastic little boys. Ageing men with experienced, leathery faces that look like they’ve been buried in a dank grave for a few centuries and then exhumed don’t get a look-in.

Which is, of course, how it should be.
