My wife and I just got an Amazon Prime membership and we've been on a Hoarders binge.

We saw the episode with Shanna last night. You know, the one with the lady who poops in a bucket and then throws it out on her lawn and then later stated that she gets a "high" off of eating contaminated food.

I don't really want to call her a lolcow because it's obvious she's not playing with a full deck, but I can't think of anybody else who thinks that throwing gallon jugs full of pee in their yard is acceptable, either.
 
gotta love hoarders - i'm not ashamed to admit how much i enjoy the way it barely covers its shameless freakshow nature, and how most of the guests are just unsympathetic - giving us a free pass to gawk and laugh! well, apart from the tragic cases. those are just hard to watch.

i'm not really into tv at all, but shameless freakshows are where it's at.

i can't decide which one's my favorite. probably the "dark food artist" lady.
 
One of the women on an episode I was watching last night was something else--she complained about how nobody understood how much "she was doing for her family" even though they all hated the hoard, cried constantly, and when the show went and repainted her entire house, the first thing she did was start screaming about how she hated the colors. Debra, I think it was. Oh, and then there was the part where her family overheard her saying how she resented them.

Absolutely unbelievable.

In Debra's defense, they did paint that living room an ugly color. ;)

I want to add some people on "intervention" because they were lolcows when they were under the influence.

-the mom who would get shitfaced on listerene when there wasn't any booze in the house. She wound up getting sent to jail for a few weeks in her episode because she went to court drunk and got sassy with the judge. (We couldn't see that part)

-Allison the air duster huffer. She's ok now.

-Linda the lady who used to be an extra in films who believed she had some sort of painful joint disorder. So she convinced doctors to prescribe her some pain medication in a lollipop form and she was constantly high on it. She also thought that certain colors or electronics would cause her joints to dislocate. She would also just lay down on the sidewalks of her neighborhood spread eagle "to fix her joints".

However...she ran like HELL (jumped out of a van sunroof too!) when her family was trying to intervene with her. How could someone with a joint disorder do that? When she was away at rehab, the doctors diagnosed her with a personality disorder instead of her joint disorder.

I remember the Linda chick. Yeah she was fucked up on Fentanyl, which is about the most powerful opioid you can get. If Oxycodone is a grenade then Fentanyl is a 50 megaton hydrogen bomb. I worked in one of the pharmaceutical labs that made the stuff. We had to wear respirators when going through the lab because even inhaling a little of it can kill you. They make it into those little lollipops to make it easier for cancer patients to take it.

Snooki was so much of a lolcow she got panned on South Park. Also the John and Kate Plus 8 mom seems to be pretty lolcow-ish.
 
Jade Goody. Most people from reality TV are just lolcow-lite, which a few exceptions. Jade was one of them.
 
Say what you want about the guy, but Oancitizen made a great point about reality TV (as well as forums like this) being the modern equivalent of the freak show from a 100 years ago. Except where those people were inhuman on the outside, these new ones are on the inside. (I felt that way about trashy 90's talk shows when I was a teen.) And that's what draws people to them.

Tila Tequila became an even bigger a year ago when she decided to become a conspiracy theorist. She'd talk about how the Jews "demonized" Hitler (he was a "good man"), is a holocaust denier, that she was some warrior of light who would lead man to a new age, that she had magical powers, what a "I-don't-give-a-fuck" badass she is and the Illuminati were the ones responsible for destroying her career and trying to kill her.

I'd link to her page, but she gave up on it (I think her attempt to become a cult leader failed) and closed down the site. Now it seems like she forgot all about it and removed any of her old articles.

I almost feel sorry for Tila Tequila, because she will do literally anything for attention. Music, reality TV, photoshoots, conspiracy theories, hardcore pornography. Nothing is private or sacred. It's like she's got some kind of lack-of-object-permanence thing going on where she'll cease to exist if people aren't looking at her. I just wonder, what the hell happens to a person to make them act like that?

Maybe she didn't get enough attention as a kid or all the attention she used to get on Facebook got to her head.
 
Surprised nobody mentioned the Duggar family yet. I don't know much about them except that they're crazy and ultra-conservative and believe that God wants women to pop out dozens of babies apparently. And give them only names that start with "J" (because...Jesus...I guess). I see headlines with them occasionally in which they have popped out yet another freaking baby, or have stated some really retarded ultra-conservative bullshit.
 
Their kids are starting to get married now and they start popping out babies about 11 months after they get married.

They're part of the "Quiverfull" movement, which makes some half-assed metaphor about children being arrows in a quiver for "Spiritual [re: gonna take over Murica] Warfare".
 
The Duggars are why there's Carousel in Logan's Run. Are you happy you religious freaks, you're the reason why people only live until they are 30!
