I like reality TV.
I know! Can you believe it? Meee?! The smart, fat girl, who is pretty fuckable and has emotional problems? I should just read books and live with my cats and get useless degrees in philosophy and history! I have no business doing trendy mainstream things... Craziness.
But, I do. I love Teen Mom, because while yes, MTV does pay them for their parenting, they also are pretty aware of how hard it is to deal when you have kids at a young age.
I'm especially ready to see that Amber bitch back in action. She's like... so crazy. But it's not like, ridiculous crazy it's, "I had a kid with an absolute dumbass mama's boy that I really honestly thought I could make it work with, because he's nowhere near as intelligent as I am, maybe he won't catch on..." crazy. That kind. She has issues, but it's because she knows she deserves better than what she ended up with. Gary is just a glorified sperm donor, and honestly, I can't believe she ever lowered herself to the level required to sleep with that pathetic pushover.
Amber needs a real man; not some little bitch boy, who thinks proposing is going to make everything better, and has some naive idea of what life should be like. A real man would tell her what's up real quick: Bitch, you need to settle down, and get out of my face with all your bullshit, or I'm gone, and you'll be back to mooching off your friends and family, and the fucktard who knocked you up." A real man, who will work at a real job, provide real income, and motivate her to get up off the couch and STOP all the bawling about how hard life is, and how sad she is for having an illegitimate kid when she was 16.
MTV is paying all your shit, girl. You need to squash all the whinging, and do you for a while. Stop all the Gary this, Gary that. I know you don't connect with anyone, ever, like you do with the father/mother of your child... but! that doesn't mean it's a connection that has to override everything else in significance and priority.
She's still really young, and I think once she settles down, and gets away from all the stupid friends who agree with every dumb idea that passes into her brain when she's anxious or stressed... she'll be okay.
I'd really like to see some resolution between Maci and Ryan; those two.. I dunno, I think in a weird way, they still really care about one another, but have a hard time meshing, because they're both very arrogant and prideful.
Catelynn and Tyler are great, have been since forever; they might be rushing things a little, but honestly, they're still really young, and I have only the highest hopes for them and their advocating the "adoption option" for teen moms.
In the way that Amber really needs a real, grown up, adult man whose mama doesn't take care of him.... Farrah needs to just be alone for a while. I see her grasping for partnership not because she's lonely (but anyone can see she is, definitely), but because she wants a guy she can depend on. Her parents bother me; I know she tries harder than it seems to make things work with a parent who looks a lot different in person than on camera. I have a mother that is sweet as pie to your face, and goes all Jekyll and Hyde when the door's closed. For the best possible benefit to Farrah, I'd really rather see her as self-sufficient, and wait until she feels more secure, alone, than with a guy.
...and that's my big long pre-season 4 (last season) of Teen Mom rant.
