Things that kind of embarrass me

I drink roughly 8 cans of Diet Coke a day; I once asked what the French word for fiance was (in French class); I can recite almost every word from the first episode of Dawson's Creek from memory (along with every lyric of MmmBop by Hanson); and most recently my addiction to Big Brother 8. I was one of the few fans of Big Brother 1. There was a crazy girl from Minnesota who dyed her hair green, some nice old guy, and a whole lot of boredom. Anyways, back to this season.... it has everything trashy you'd want in a reality tv show.

1. A bunch of strangers living together in a made-specifically-for-this-show house.
2. Several of the contestants have people from their past in the house. Of course their relationship ended on horrible terms (one of the guys gave his boyfriend gonorrhea).
3. They have to compete for food. In earlier seasons, the losers would be on peanut butter and jelly sandwiches for the week. Now the losers get "slop" - which apparently tastes like a mixture of death and santorum.
4. And what would a good trashy show be without some option to call in and vote. The audience can vote each episode to make one of the characters do what they wish. He's called "America's player", and all of his decisions are determined by "America's vote".
5. There's even a cam in the bathroom.

I love it. For those of you in the know, my favorite player is Zack... I am strangely attracted to him. My least favorite is Jen, of course, but I also dislike the bimbo-y little blonde one whose friend went home the first week.

Sigh. Don't judge me.
