Is anyone else irritated by Jennifer Love Hewit, Jessica Simpson, P. Diddy (or what ever his name is this week), and Kelly Clarkson crying about their 2 pimples on TV all day long? Seriously, show me a celebrity who suffered from cystic acne for 7 or 8 years that was cured by ProActive & I'll buy the stuff. It must be so difficult to have a zit. Boo hoo. Try having a face purple with horribly painful acne through most of your teens and early 20's. Been there. Done that.
Enough of that rant. On to a new one.
Why is it that the people on Property Ladder never listen to the host (Kirsten Kemp) when she's telling them exactly what they need to do to the house they're flipping? She's an expert for a reason. They're usually first time flippers. She's usually right. JUST LISTEN TO THE WOMAN!
One last rant. Where do they find the kids on My Super Sweet 16? Are these real people? Are there really mothers out there who will allow their 15 year old daughters to call them names a that would make a sailor blush and then go ahead and buy them a $75,000 car? Apparently. And can I say something about the dresses these girls wear to their parties? Most of them look like they belong on a street corner somewhere instead of a 16 year old's birthday party. It makes my skin crawl.
And the moral of this? I watch too much television.

Edited to add:
I love commercials. There are two I've just seen that made me laugh out loud. One was for a Verizon V-cast phone. A man is dancing in his office to AC/DC wearing a school boy uniform. Loved it. The other is an official looking man setting behind a desk telling parents that their children are controlling their minds. He proceeds to put a giant aluminum foil hat on his head that looks oddly like one of those erasers you can put over the eraser on you pencils. It's for a lap top. Love, Love, Love this one.

You do make me laugh, honey ! S
Ha! Way back when, when I for some unknown reason actually watched an episode of My Supersweet Sixteen, I had almost exactly the same thoughts. Well those and "way to instill a sense of entitlement into our youth, morons"
And I feel ya on the Proactive commercials. Trust me, I tried it. It didn't help. It actually made me itch and turn red. I figure I can live with the acne... at least it doesn't itch.
I have a friend who had horrible acne. Really bad. She tried everything everything and it never got any better. She finally gave in and tried that ProActive and it worked! Granted those celebs are laughable, but I've seen it work in real life.
I've recorded a couple episodes of Property Ladder but I haven't seen it yet.
Oh Super Sweet 16. It's awful. I can't imagine what could make those kids that way. I'm with ya on this one. And still I can't NOT watch it if I come across it.
I saw the lap top one tonight. Funny!
The thing w/ proactive for me (and I have tried nearly everything because I have very cranky skin) is that I'm allergic to benzoyl peroxide, which ProActive has - so I've never tried it. Literally, acne meds w/ BP makes me break out *worse* (how's that for salt in the wound).
