While channel surfing last night I stumbled across a show called Go Big that is an amateur act competition.
One of the two acts consisted of a guy that first straddled a seesaw between his legs and had his buddy jump off a platform and land on the other side causing him to get slammed in the balls - seesaw broke in half.
Next, he spread his legs and had muscle men do that S-wave exercise thing with thick ropes smacking him in the balls.
Finally, he had a guy get on a pogo stick, bounce around for a while to build excitement and yep, land right on his balls.
If you've seen the movie Idiocracy, you know that the number-one hit TV show in the future is Oh My Balls and it just consists of a guy getting his balls hurt in random, pointless ways.
Full Idiocracy realized in 2022.
I think there's another Jackass movie coming out.
Maybe if you're stoned it's funny?

Brawndo. It's what plants crave!
I predict that I'll like Starbucks a whole lot more if that's the case.

I went to Costco today. There was no time machine. There was whiskey.

If we're going by when an Ow My Balls show is made, then Full Idiocracy happened in 2003:

In reply to GameboyRMH :
That was parody though. I don't think that counts.
I swear there is now a trilogy of movies that are proficies. Office Space, Idiocracy, and now Don't Look Up.
I had the same reaction to all three. They were so real and made me so mad I had to laugh. Great movies.
And as far as Ow My Balls, wasn't that America's (dumbest) Funniest home videos with the late Bob Saget?
BTW, I stumbled across the same episode again and stuck around to learn that the ball injury guy won against a guy that bounced balls off a keyboard while juggling them to play classical music.
So, in 2022, impressive skill takes a back seat to low-brow, sophomoric antics.
In reply to Datsun310Guy...I've found that strategy to work great with South Park but in this case, no improvement, just general disappointment my my fellow humans.

It's always been that way. One of my favorite quotes from one of my favorite comedian/social commentator.....George Carlin:
"Think about how stupid the average person is, then realize half of them are stupider than that."
Talent is cool, but we all know the masses, myself included, like seeing others get injured. Jackass has been making money for decades by doing similar. WipeOut show where people get hurt etc. Makes money.
But I dont think our President will start calling for gatorade for plants ha
