I just watched daily planet.... no big deal. They were doing a story
about inventors including the guy who invented the airbag. of course all
they mention is snowboarders and never skiers. at this point Im
thinking: ah what ever they are just noobs who think that only
snowboarders can do spinny flippys but then.... out of no where comes
the big bad skier who does a flip and tears a hole in the bag. they make
him look like an asshole and move on to only talk about snowboarders
having fun. you know what discovery... you have lost my heart!
I saw this a really long time ago. i was watching it with my dad, hoping for some skiing, first time i see a skier i'm like "sweet" then they bitch about him breaking the bag, it was probably the most disappointed i've ever been while watching T.V
i hate this. when uneducated people see a skier doing tricks they're like "he's trying to be a snowboarder" or when they see a skier wearing fresh gear instead of downhill or backcountry stuuf they say "he's trying to look like a snowboarder". i have restrained myself from killing many people
except this time around there were programs on that were not shark related! It's shark week, i want to watch programs about sharks, not fucking motorcycles
My roommate from last year was on Daily Planet. They were explaining the physics of snowboarding before the olympics. He got greasy on a 15 foot shit kicker. The end.
Shark week DID suck this year...plus I noticed a bunch of band wagoners posting about it on facebook. That pretty much ruined it for me.
It used to be this special little nerdy thing that I looked forward to each year, then, they started to recycle shows and over-advertise it. What a let down.
