I gotta say, that "Hot Chicks of OWS" link was pretty lame. Thousands of protesters all across the country and that's the best they can come up with? I could get more pictures of hot chicks in one Saturday afternoon here in Portland.

I sincerely hope they can't find anyone to agree to do this. Although it won't matter anyway, they'll probably just cast actors.

And they'll put them in a house with a Tea Partier, a jock, a party girl, a prude, a minority, and a gay. Look at how different they are -- and they're living together!
They just might learn something about each other... and themselves.

Oh I sincerely doubt they'll be able to find a single 20-something attention whore in the entire Occupy Wall Street protest.

And then they'll make a living doing Real World/Road Rules challenges for the next 50 years. Well, that and as "motivational speakers", though I'm still coming to grips with how or why these people can books gigs for that.

MTV is hoping to cast their latest reality show with people who absolutely hate mega-corporations like MTV? That sounds about as sensible as Scientology trying to recruit Anonymous members to sell copies of Dianetics. If they actually do make this show, it'll be filled with biggest fakes since Pamela Anderson's pre-reduction tits.

I'd heard Main Stream Media was against the OWS, but who knew that it would sink so low. Nothing becomes irrelevant faster than what MTV puts on the air.

Stop saying that Gandhi quote. It wasn't true for the Tea Party when they kept parroting and it won't be true for OWS. The worst thing that can happen to OWS is for them to assume victory is inevitable.

The ultimate sign of something jumping the shark is that Big Media want to cash in on it. So, too, for OWS.

On the other hand, this does lead to an interesting point: MTV apparently thinks that OWS will last long enough that there's time to create, cast, and film a reality show among its ranks.

It's also not a freaking Gandhi quote.

[sees watermark on the last one] Well there's your problem, it's a tumblr... uh, tumble-thingy (Facebook has pages, livejournal had posts, but what does one call an individual thing on tumblr?). For better or (in this case) for worse, tumblr communities are universally inclusive. If you submit a picture to a site like "Hot Chicks of Occupy Wall Street", the only way it's not getting posted is if it's absolutely certain to be a dude.

You have to wonder how many generations grew up wanting the good life as shown on MTV/BET and willing to do anything to get it.

Oh I'd bone her. But she's not "Hot". Misusing that word degrades it.

I would not bone her, but I agree with rocky. Misusing the word "hot" degrades it.
