I blame the Puritans.
As always.
Every morning this week the idiots on the radio have been buzzing about the Janet Jackson Super Bowl thing. "What about the children who saw that?"
First of all, I don't know about children, but I was watching the halftime show, and I completely missed the big event. Secondly, it's just a boob. Not like most children haven't seen one, or gathered nourishment from one for the first few years of their lives. And third, if mine looked anything like hers, I think the world would have a hard time keeping a top ON me.
It was a stupid celebrity pubicity stunt. That's what celebrities do. They make asses, or breasts, of themselves in public. We act all shocked and appalled by it, but really, they're just doing what we pay them to do. They're getting our attention. It's their job.
So, yes, once again, I blame the Puritanical heritage. These were people who were too stuffy and stiff for the English to tolerate, after all. This is the kind of thing that happens when you let people like that have their own country.
