Idiot sues over Fear Factor episode

I think it’s safe to say that people are getting a little too sue happy.

Austin Aitken told The Associated Press he watches "Fear Factor" often and had no problem with past installments where the reality show's participants ate worms and insects in pursuit of a $50,000 prize -- but eating rats went "too far."

….

Asked why he didn't shut off his television before the rat-eating segment, Aitken said he couldn't do it quick enough.

It makes me not even want to read the news. Maybe I should sue CNN.

Curious, what about the Pig Ovary eating contest? He must have been watching American Idol during that time.

Oh yea, I had to add this,



Sounds like he wasn't in it for the money at all...

I will countersue, Nephthys, because your avatar offends me as a cat lover and smoker. Or something.

As for me, I've been trying to avoid 95% of the FF population here at Alla because they're stupid (much like the guy in the above article), which kinda means avoiding Alla.

On a cooking show in Britain, wasn't a human placenta fried up and saute'ed and eaten before?

looked like it smelled good at any rate..

(they actually ate rats?)

Human placenta is very high in nutrients. I actually know a couple that turned the placenta from their first child into stew and ate it. Its also been shown to eliminate the potential for post-partum depression because of its huge load of hormones.

Its used as a tonic in chinese herbal medicine as well.

Meat is meat. Unless its raw. Then its steak tartar.

yeah....

you'd suck your own di[b][/b]ck if you could reach wouldn't you?

I think the sheer fact that 1) He doesn't expect to get the money and 2) He's only trying to make a statemtent automatically says this:

The guy is a f*ckin bored Paralegal with nothing better to do than take a chance going to court for $2.5 million in the hopes that he'll get paid for this stupid claim. Regardless, his balls should be impaled for stating that a TV Show made him:



Someone needs to get this guy to take his Sally-*** to a bar to grab a Brew and check out some women, cause if you ask me...he's pretty f*ckin gay. My 13 y/o nephew can stomach more crap than this whanker.

NBC will settle for at least 10k i'm sure. Which makes this guy extra-hilarious, since it kinda sounds like he's joking anyway ("ran into a doorway" from the dizziness.. usually i'm sitting when i watch TV, unless he was fleeing the room at that point)

edit:

btw does CNN HAVE to give you a list of "related sponsors". kinda tasteless to have ads for rat extermination right next to this article, if it truly is about some sissy who can't handle rat ingestion.

If I thought it would get this kind of crap off the air I'd sue every single reality show.

Sadly, I can't claim pain and suffering since I don't watch TV.

Now there is an interesting topic... how many people here really could care less if all the TV networks went offline tomorrow..

The only show I have really cared to watch was Carnivale, which is now in it's second season (Carnivale 2) (HBO Exclusive).

It is a weekly show that is only seasonal, so I guess that means that I watch 1 hour of TV a week for 10-12 weeks a year.

Sad thing is I have satellite with premium service and 6 recievers.. (for the wife, kids, guest house etc.) But I could really care less if the damn thing was broken for a month.

Anyone else feel this way? I'm interested in seeing if there is a trend of some sort.

Doesn't he have eyelids? Couldn't he have just closed his eyes?

I watch some reality shows just because I'm bored (ok, so I like them), and I watch some sports, but to be honest, I really wouldn't care if all of the stations went off the air simultaneously for a month, or a year, or even forever. As long as I have a gaming system or two and a computer, I'm happy. ^^

Kundalini...wtf is your tard of? Is that your mom doing exercises on a stool or some sort of weird German **** warm-up viideo?
