Flipping through the channels on the cable... 11:30 pm, and obviously there's not much on. The Learning Channel (not exactly sure what I'm supposed to be learning from this channel...) has a show on called "When Sleep Goes Bad." The description is "A profile of three people who are experiencing severe sleep disorders." Okay, I get the idea of a show about sleep disorders. But could they come up with a more tabloidy name please? I wonder whe runs that channel? Maybe TLC stands for Tabloid-Like Channel?
But "When Sleep Goes Bad" isn't on till midnight. So what's on right now? "The Man Whose Arms Exploded," about a guy who got so jacked up on steroids that his biceps "exploded." I'm not even really sure what that means, but maybe that's not the important part. Granted, I'm not sure what the important part is, or if there even is one. Given that they can't even find enough material about this guy to fill out the hour (45 minutes, really), and need to spend a lot of time talking about the steroid trade in Britain and the negative consequences of various gym drugs, maybe they shouldn't be calling it "The Man Whose Arms Exploded." Maybe they should call it "Idiot Muscleheads and Their Adventures with Drugs."
Oh, and can a just mention, bodybuilders are gross.
