Carlin, what do you expect.... he's the King of Fuck Mountain.

That's gross. As a person born in the mid-seventies who came of age with the Anita Hill/Clarence Thomas hearings, I am usually shocked by the kind of sh*t men could say to women in public spaces. On a "family show" no less.

What strikes me most is the smile and giggle that women must have become accustomed to giving in response to such pandering. Nauseating.

his mum should've had her Bob neutered!

Well, my pretty little thing (sounds better when I say it) I was born in the 80s... and in the 80s - "Greed Is Good!" (If you know who said this, then you'll be happy to hear that he's making a comeback soon!)

Oh c'mon was it really that bad? It's not like he was slapping asses or threatening the female contestants. He's being tongue-in-cheek. And, um, family show...? How does this bring a family together? What is it teaching children? It's mindless entertainment for mindless audiences who want things they can't afford.

I understand how you about these women but c'mon. Look at them - you know why they're laughing nervously? She's on live(?) television. What the hell are they supposed to do? Lay the verbal smackdown on Bob after winning a new kitchenette? They're not law professors. Bob Barker isn't an appointed judge who liked to talk about his fascination with bestiality and complained about pubic hair in his soda can...

...Although if he did, it would just sound like a normal conversation to me. *shrugs*

Let old pervy Bob be. He was funny as hell. And I don't know about you, but Barbara looked like she was having a good time feeling Bob Barker up. I wish people could be that randy now. Game shows nowadays are so lame and scripted. I would flirt with Barker right and left... while I caress the shiny handle on my new stainless steel oven.

I have to agree with Christina on this one except I want the Carribean vacation instead of the stove.

Christina saying "pretty little thing" is much more appealing than Bob. Maybe it's a matter of my taste. Also reminds me of Dmitri Martin's bit that any guy can instantly become a creep when he calls women "ladies" but somehow it doesn't sound so creepy when women call other women ladies.

Yeah, point taken, Christina, about laughing nervously because it's live television. And I certainly didn't mean that Bob's behavior was the *same* as what Thomas allegedly did, just that since the Hill/Thomas hearings, the rules of engagement have changed. Well, at least they have in the circumstances in which I usually find myself.

Which causes me to wonder if I should think about expanding my interactions, since conversations about bestiality are more colorful than stiff politeness. It would have to be all the way to bestiality, though. None of the in-between pretty-little-thing bullshit.
