Ship #DoucheDad, Jon AND Kate, and Octo-Mom to an island. I mean, you now have the Professor(Henne), a mixture of Ginger and MaryAnn(Octo-Mom), The stuck up Mr. and Mrs. Howell (Kate), and Gilligan(Jon). You can ship in guests stars, like the Harlem Globetrotters, and they can win things like coconuts which DoucheDad can turn into a dish to prove we are the descendants of aliens!
The best part? They are somewhere where they can no longer hurt anyone innocent. It's like Gilligans Island, but real.
How do I trademark an idea?! #balloonboy

I'd love to see Garcia, Dangle & Junior handling catching up to a crappy little balloon that ends up having nothing in it... #balloonboy

I'd like to see John & Kate in one of those traps from the Saw movies and we'll call it, John & Kate: Temp Fate.... #balloonboy

reality tv is symptomatic of some very fundamental problems with our society. it's glorified schadenfreude sanctioned by soulless advertisers. it's sensationalized bickering and backstabbing. it's abhorrent, spoiled-child-like behavior rewarded with fame, fortune, and undue public attention. it's a shameless display of a willful lack of principles cast in a light that glamorizes such blatantly uncivilized behavior. and every single person i know who watches it enjoys a dramatically lower level of respect from myself. #balloonboy

Abusing the 911 emergency line isn't a big deal because cops just come to check on you to make sure everything's okay - if it's a prank, the cops will just shout at you and leave without giving you any tickets or fines.

Are you freaking kidding me? You clearly have NO clue what goes in to running a 911 service.
Go volunteer with a rescue squad/fire department for a while and then tell me abusing 911 isn't a big deal.

99% of the people that buy their cables would not know the difference between Monster's speaker cables and some bulk cable bought at Home Depot. Most people's speakers aren't even precise enough to reproduce the sound accurately in the first place. That lack of oxidation, blah blah bullcrap is exactly that: bullcrap. Copper doesn't oxidize very quickly, even if you leave it bare, lying around outside. Wrap it in any kind of plastic jacket and it's gonna take longer than the life of your house to oxidize.
I use underground-rated 12ga low-voltage wire. It's more expensive than lamp cord, but it's well insulated to withstand abuse and pulls easily through walls. (By "more expensive", I mean ~$0.35/ft).
HDMI is digital and any generic (but not complete shit) cable will give you the same results as a Monster HDMI cable.
