So, I was listening to one of George Carlin's skits (gonna miss him), and he had a very interesting notion:
He proposes a 24-hour suicide channel. Now, I don't think that we can support a 24-hour suicide channel yet in today's society, but I think we can support a 1-hour per day reality show of people killing themselves. We could have a little awards ceremony at the end of every year of the most creative suicides.
I think we would get some crazy stuff out of people if there was a contest. What do you guys think?
Gotta thin the herd somehow.

"And he's going around for another pass with the knives... OHHH! That's GOTTA hurt! He completly missed his veins. What do you think Bob?"
"I think that he certainly is ballsy for going on with this after missing his veins twice...."

"I think that he certainly is ballsy for going on with this after missing his veins twice...."
"At this point, he should either give up or go about another means. Clearly, he is completely incompetent with a knife."
"And here he goes again, OH that's a lot of blood, but I don't think it'll be fatal. What do you think Mike?"
"and now, it's Final Notes with Dr Kevorkian. today Dr Kevorkian deals with low self esteem due to failed suicide attempts..."

Stephen King probably looks at all the "Extreme Reality Shows" blaring on and says "Jesus Christ people, I just wrote a fucking story! Just a fucking story! Why are you trying to make it real!?"

Look up a song from Insane Clown Posse on YouTube; "The Amazing Maze", and be prepared to laugh your ass off! :D

Looking up Insane Clown Posse on YouTube? Thanks, but no thanks. I don't feel masochistic enough today to engage in such depraved activities.
If you want Extreme Reality TV, you should try the raw feed channels which the regular news channels use for their items. You'll see a lot of gore and other horrifying stuff that usually is neatly edited away in order to keep things digestible for their viewers.
