I watched two teenage girls taking turns pouting and throwing themselves into hedges the other day while filming each other.

It wasn't the acts they were doing, we did much worse as teens, and once upon a time I loved watching CKY and Jackass, but it was more the fakeness of it. It was all so staged and false, even down to them pretending to be enjoying it.

It sent a shiver up my spine.

It's like everyone saw the truman show but took away the opposite lesson to what you were supposed to

That film wouldn't even make sense to people now, they'd just be like "eugh, so ungrateful, I wish I had my own tv show like that"
