I just don't get it folks. My wife, my sister and even my brother in law are hopelessly addicted to "While You Were Out" and "Trading Spaces." Every weekend they are huddled around the TV. I tried escaping to another room, but all I hear is them muttering about how horrible the designs are. Could it be that I am already dead and in hell?
I happen to like both of those shows. Sorry. Can't sympathize. Go to a sports bar or something... I dunno.
look at it this way: the more they watch the show, the more cheap tricks they can learn in case someone ever decides a room needs a makeover...
I sympathize with you Refman. I dislike both of the shows you spoke of. But my all time least favorite shows are: 1. Room by Room on HGTV (how could anything be this bad) 2. Suprise by Design on Discovery (I want to kill the blond woman)
Refman, I feel your pain! My Aggie wife is addicted to those as well. She, in fact has begun coming up with all these woderful home projects that were consuming my weekends. Thanks to football, that has ended. In closing I would like to share with you a realization I have had in hopes of helping you to cope. All my life the late summer to mid winters have been consumend with one thing. Football. Football before family, football before friends, and so on and so on. After marriage and a child only one thing has changed. My son is now first, but football is only second. Many of my "true friends" happen to all be football fans as well. The wife used to always tolerate and hate it. The weekend consists of being in the bed or on the sofa, analyzing the gameplans, wondering which team or both stands the best chance of being successful, watching every move knowing how important each detail is to suceeding. That used to be me, but now... it's her! Good ol' TLC. They have a show that catches the eye of my wife much like football is myself. TLC has found the female answer to Football.
Can't stand either one of those shows. I tried watching each one once and damn near dozed off. Now.... Monster House... that's a good one. I just watched an episode a while ago where they turned a house into a space-age house with air tubes for delivering beer and mail and whatever else. It had a UFO crashed through the ceiling and motorized doors for the fireplace and a 40+ inch plasma tv. That was sweet.
ooooops! I forgot I was on Dallas's name.... crap. meggo = in trouble now.... ok, so the previous post is from me. WHEN DO WE GET THE EDIT OPTION BACK?!?!
