♥ why i LOVE the "jersey shore" ♥


1. THE ACTUAL JERSEY SHORE HASN’T BEEN THIS INTERESTING IN YEARS
Sorry to be blunt, but no one has found summer on the New Jersey coast exciting since the shark attacks of 1916. On the boardwalks you can buy fried dough and fried Oreos, as well as taffy that will undo any dental work you have had done in the last 40 years. You can buy overpriced tickets for amusement park rides so timid they’d be laughed out of the kiddie area of a Six Flags. And that’s about it.

2. MAYBE ‘JERSEY SHORE’ WILL FINALLY KILL OFF THE KARDASHIANS. 
Anyone truly interested in identifying the most irritating reality show need look no further than “Keeping Up With the Kardashians” on E!, now inexplicably in its sixth season.

3. YOUNG PEOPLE NEED BAD EXAMPLES. 
Too many children today are reaching their teenage years armed only with a Disney definition of “bad person”: it’s someone who talks cattily about your wardrobe behind your back, maybe copies a few answers off your math quiz. They have no idea how much ignorance, narcissism, predatory sexism and hair-gel abuse lurk out there in the real world. Unless they watch “Jersey Shore.” From that perspective the show is a sort of public service.
