Waiting for the front room...

I am waiting for my roommate to clear out so I can finish looking at my students' annotated bibliographies. It's the damnedest thing, Ghost Lab. 10 seconds into the show and they have already fucking ruined any objectivity by telling every single person on the team exactly what they hope to find. That and they don't even consider alternative explanations. They are looking for the ghost of a tattoo artist at his place of employment; he died recently; all of his friends, who clearly miss him, see him everywhere. Clearly, they are grieving. This is what grieving looks like. Instead of saying, "Guys, I'm very sorry, but this wound is too fresh. There is too much emotion here for you to be objective. Something would be wrong if you didn't think that you were seeing him. It's a normal part of grieving," they throw gas on the fire and then say, "Look at the thermal cam! It just got really hot!"

These pudgy motherfuckers deserve a cockpunch.

HOLY SHIT THEY JUST DISCOVERED THE CAMERA GUY!!!

Now they are looking at the sine wave displays of EVPs on the wall of the Douche Van. Class B? A class B EVP? Categorizing your delusions doesn't make them any more real, asshole. Discovery Channel, you suck. I think the ghost who is saying, "God damn you," is addressing the Discovery Channel.

Mike Rowe, seriously, buddy, isn't there some sort of conflict of interest in being on two ghost hunting shows? And besides, you already have a show of your own! An interesting, occasionally nauseating one. Why do you feel compelled not only to enable lesser shows, but put other voice actors out of work?

The only thing that I can say is that at least they aren't talking on the cell phone while driving, like the Ghost Hunters. That's like driving drunk! However, I have a suspicious feeling that the Ghost Lab Rats are eating while driving. Entire roasted pigs.
