The REAL Real World.

Two posts in one day... I know right? It's Epic. 

So I watched one of my guilty pleasures tonight, The Real World.  Maury and I have a secret obsession with MTV reality shows.  We were mildly devastated that Lauren left The Hills. But whatever. 

So this season promises to be pretty intense.  It's only the third episode and there has already been a major fight.  This season is staged in Cancun, so there is much partying and drunkenness, as to be expected.  Tonight's episode was centered around the roommates getting their "jobs." They are working for a company that provides chaperones while the youngsters come to party for Spring Break.  Their boss informs them that while they are here, they are representing the company and there is to be no intoxication or table dancing, whatsoever.  Personally, this is reasonable to me, but one of the chicks freaks out about not being able to "have any fun" while she is in Cancun. Her words are "If I want to get sh*t-faced and dance on a table while I am here, I should be able to." Wow.  What class this girl exudes.    

Meanwhile, another girl, who happens to have a boyfriend who she claims she loves and talks to every night on he phone, is spooning every second of the day with her much attractive roommate.  In several scenes they are groping each other on the dance floor and he leans in to kiss her on the cheek and she scolds him.  "Stop it! Don't go there!" She says.  I am like "Seriously???"  He wouldn't be going there if you weren't rubbing yourself all over him! Girls amaze me.  They expect to be able to blur the lines of intimacy and men will still be able to follow.  She is allowed to tease him but he can't act upon it without being shot down.  It's so bizarre.  

 In another scene, one of the guys gets angry at one of the girls, for a really ridiculous reason, so ridiculous I can't even remember what it is, and spits in her food.  They are actually in line at a taco stand in he goes up and sits next to her and waits for 5 minutes just so he can grab her bag of tacos and spit in it.  REALLY?!

Where does MTV get these people?  They are so disrespectful and arrogant.  I can't understand why someone would want to live their life that way.  Complete and utter rudeness.  I guess I will never get it.  I am really glad I was raised to know different and to act like a lady.  If my mama saw me on national television rubbing all over some guy I just met and dancing on tables drunk, you better believe I would have a job in the drive through window at Taco Bell waiting on me when I got home.
