OMFG


i'm sick of people moaning about the cot death story line just cos thier baby died and it hits them on a personal level, they're happy to watch muder rape kidnappings torture ect ect and enjoy it even tho it's affected other people in the same way cot death has affected them





hypocritical *****

Tell me about it, anytime i mention something kid related here, i get pummeled by the parent squad, yet same people have no problems making fun of rape for instance.

soap operas make me sick full stop. The whole point of them seems to be to show people the worst possible side of humanity and people watch it as entertainment...call me odd but I prefer my entertainment to be, well, entertaining not depressing but that's just how I roll.


It is true about people having a very strange sense of what is appropriate and what is not, i.e. people get all funny over dead baby jokes but laugh at dead adult jokes..I wonder what it is about the few intervening years that makes it ok to laugh when one croaks?

i laugh at all jokes, and all people, im not racist i hate everyone equally and will laugh in thier face accordingly :)


im sure soaps are for manic depresives who watch it to make themselfs feel better about thier own shit lives

Different things carry different emotional weight depending on personal experience. Its not hypocritical, its just how your own experiences have affected you and left their mark.

Eastenders is pure shite though and like all soap operas is for slack-jawed couch monkeys.

Eastenders is probably the worst show on TV, rarely to I actually panic mash the remote while surfing to get off a channel before it's awfullness hits me.
Who the fook are all these people who love it?
It's like a mass emo depress-in, most of the characters are tedious ugly cockney wankers and I have yet to accidently catch it for more than 10 seconds without seeing some crunched up face shouting at another.
Eastenders is like the angry chav version of Corrie and actually manages to make the Corrie characters look posh.

The older you get the more you become aware that the quantity of idiots you share the planet with is actually quite large. A lot of them watch Eastenders and read The Sun for some reason.

Having kids presses emotional buttons you didn't even know you had. Stuff that wouldn't have bothered me a year ago (before my daughter was born) affects me now (and its really annoying). My answer to stuff like Eastenders is simply "don't watch it" (not that I ever did), but at the same time I do understand why people are upset.

Hate Eastenders, it never changes and is always horrible negative shit with the occasional silver lining. At least Coronation Street is usually pretty light hearted stuff, yes it does have some shocking storylines but they always seem to be handled less brutally and with more compassion. For that reason I can understand why people watch it, as for Eastenders I have no fucking idea how it can be classed as entertainment and screened early in primetime. It is a black drama with thin plots and mostly poor acting.

...and seems to be obsessed with sexual innuendo (My wife watches it sometimes) Its utter garbage, I don't understand how people can get upset by it though.

Don't necessarily agree with that. Sure, you have different emotional responses depending on your life and events, but getting uppity and judging about one thing and making fun of another similar thing is hypocritical.

Say for example you're bald, get angry at bald jokes, yet make fatty jokes yourself. Not cool ;)

Nooooooooooooo. There have been far, far worse threads. Some are so gay they come with their own lube. That Pokey Bum one was not a good thread.
