The Bar Just Got Lower

Snooki’s baby, Lorenzo, is 7-months-old now, and since she’s managed not to drop him on his head (that we know of) or accidentally fill his bottle with gin (again, that we know of,) she feels she’s qualified to ‘write’ a book about parenting.

Currently, the books working title is “How to Go From Being a Sloppy, Drunken Whore to Being a Sloppy Drunken Whore With a Baby: The Immaculate Conception of Baby Lorenzo”

I hope in the acknowledgements page Snooki doesn’t forget to thank the good people at MTV and their incredible knack for taking retarded, backwoods hobbits and catapulting them to the world stage where their inane, colloquial gibberish can be translated into an actual piece of literature that miraculously, people will actually buy.

West Virginia Senator Wants MTV to Stop Making Fun of Him.

Above: Snooki, from MTV’s Jersey Shore has made a name for herself with her secretion and excessive consumption of various fluids.

MTV has made it their business to get the most depraved, idiotic, willing-to-swap-bodily-secretion degenerates they can find, and give them a national platform to showcase what an affront they are to human decency (Jersey Shore, Teen Mom, The Hills, etc.) Following in that vein, the new series Buck Wild is set to premiere January 3, but not if U.S. Senator Joe Manchin of West Virginia can stop it.

According to the Huffington Post:

Manchin’s office sent a letter to the president of the network saying the show profits off of “poor decisions of our youth.” And plays to ugly, inaccurate stereotypes about the people of his home state.

The network ordered 12 episodes of the show last fall, and a trailer shows the cast drinking and swearing, four-wheeling and fighting, even filling a dump truck with water and using it as a swimming pool. It was shot in Sissonville and Charleston.

No Senator, I would say that sounds like a fairly accurate depiction, but they better make quick with the incest, moonshine and road-kill barbeque or I might call fraud. Makes you wonder what lucky, backwoods yokel is anxiously waiting in the wings giving blow-jobs for her chance to become the next Snooki. Ahh, the stuff dreams are made of.
