While on the subject of MTV, I'd also like to say that I hate the Real World. Actually I hate all 'realistic' shows including Survivor. I can't pinpoint the exact source of my dislike but I have a hunch it might have something to do with the extremely annoying people who like to be on the show.

The subway station by my house has several exits. One of them always closes by 7pm. Night after night, I see people walk towards the door, after seven, and shake the chains. I wonder what they're thinking. Are they hoping the chains will crumble under the sheer force of their hands? Or do they think they can will the chains away? Humans are weird creatures.
