Situations that remind you of times when you want to double over with discomfort and just drop dead rarely find parallels, but yes my friend i have indeed found a situation that makes my bood pressure sore and makes me wish i were a jellyfish. I'm talking about the distress caused by this lovely new show called "sach ka samna", yes think no further, it is the Indian rip-off of the moment of truth.
Well anyway as i was saying, for the dummies, this show is formatted such that the contestant is put through a set of polygraphs tests to indicate if they're telling the truth or not and 21 questions are asked again on the show, the answers being compared with the ones given in the polygraph tests.
The questions could range from "Do u have homosexual tendencies?" to "Do u think you're husband is still attracted to you?" or "Do u hate your father?" or "Do u secretly wish you were an evil sorcerer?" and so on.
Now, coming to why this causes me immense distress, first of all, all those theories about how the truth becomes subjective make me want to barge onto that set and annihilate the godamn place, second of all, the people who accompany the contestant sit there and watch the person saying things like-"I think my father is a dick", better still, they pretend to think its funny. The best part is that these guy's don't mind admitting that they have no principles, they smile shamelessly and say, yes im selfish, yes im a fucker and they justify it as well. What i dont get is that people are willing to literally sell their self-respect for money. I once told someone you cant have ideals on an empty stomach but really, are we that starved?
Must watch: Luck, its the shizz yo \m/
excellant choice if laugh riots are ur thing, better still if the ticket costs less than 100 bucks ;)
