WOO HOO! My Big Fat Obnoxious Boss is gonna be on in a few moments!

[Rabrrrrrr]

YAYAY!!

I was gonna go back to Shopko to return the chair I just bought which, when I went to put it together, had two "bottom bottom" pieces instead of one "top bottom" and one "bottom bottom". But screw it - Simpsons, Arrested Development, and then MBFOB. I ain't leaving!

I'm fining MBFOB to be funny as all get out and brilliantly done.

1. What is this show all about?

[Francesca]

2. television show?

[Rabrrrrrr]

3. Yep - televison reality show

But a total dupe - they have some real bona fide business people who are doing what they think is a show like Trump's show - working for a billionaire investment banker.

Except the investment banker is just an actor. And everything in it is fake, and he just spouts ridiculous bullshit all the time. But they all think it's real.

Right now, he's invted them to his yacht - which they actually just rented for the day, but the players don't know it - and he gave the women gifts - string bikinis. And he's just asked them to go hang out in the jacuzi.

Ther actor playing the billionaire is fantastic!!

Plus, during the show, they have interviews with the actor and some of the other actors playing his staff, commenting on the craiziness that he went for, and how the players just keep going with the flow.

it's frickin' hilarious.

5. But when they find out, won't they sue?

I don't get it... what are they playing for?

[BoX o BooX]

6. Suing is not an option.

Contestants on those shows sign away all their rights for eternity. They cease being people, and become commodities.

7. My God, it's just like the real thing.

You work for a company, kissing up to some ideal with some vague hope of being rewarded... only to find out to late that it's all a fraud.

4. OMG - the boss is so totally ignoring one of the women

and just keeps saying "That's fascinating" over and over as she's speaking, and keeps mentioning how pretty she is and that "You don't expect a pretty women to think about such things".
