6.

Have you ever noticed how bad commercials have gotten? twix commercials saying their product will help you lie, axe and tag will help you get laid (tag being worse because it markets to high school aged boys), the "morning tongue" for burger king. its ridiculous!

my favorite is the extendz commercial. they go on and on about how its scientifically developed, so all i think is of a bunch of scientists with small penis's trying to find a way to make them bigger! ha! that sure is a good use of that chemistry degree.

tv is just so bad. i mean, even kids cartoons are walking the line. like the channel "The N" for example. dont get me wrong, degrassi is a guilty pleasure.. but if i ever caught lana watching any of the n originals, she would be in so much trouble! i mean, this channel is marketed towards middle schoolers, and half of their originals have SO much inappropriate content. homosexuality, pre-marital sex, drug use, lying, cheating, sneaking around, coed living arrangements. and they sometimes cover serious topics, like violence, STDs, cancer, or rape, but kids dont see that the way they see the other stuff.

i mean, even disney movies. for example, that football movie with the rock in it. essentially it was about him having pre-marital sex with someone he didnt keep in touch with, and got them pregnant. and in enchanted, the guy had an emotional affair with gisel while in a relationship with someone he was planning to marry.

i dont know. i just see so many things in the media that are perceived as "normal" when they shouldnt be. divorce, infidelity, underage drinking, pre-marital sex, lying, homosexuality, using the Lords name in vain, swearing, breaking even the simplest of laws, disobedience, gluttony, vanity. the list goes on. its horrible.

oh well. the most i can do as a individual is keep lana shielded as much as i can i guess.
poor bug has a cold right now. her current nick name is booger-bucket.
