Jersey Shore on MTV

[Lathum]

What

The

Fuck

[Lathum]

I don't watch MTV nor do I watch any of those stupid Real World, hills, etc... type shows. being from the Jersey Shore my wife and I watched a bit of it last night.

It was hideous. First off, one person of the eight are actually from NJ. The show should be called Stereotypical Idiot New Yorkers Who Invade Our Beaches Every Summer.

[digamma]

Honestly, we've got a Situation here. This was the best hour and a half I've spent watching television in quite some time.

[DanGarion]

Just what I want to watch a bunch of orange guidos and jersey girls whining.

[Crapshoot]

Seriously - that was trash at an epic level. I can't believe I'm admitting this, but I was laughing my ass off.

You nailed it. Exactly why I'm watching. When I saw that preview with the girl getting straight up *punched* in the face by a dude...I thought "This is must-see TV"

[BYU 14]

Holy shit, no wonder they turned Manhatten into a maximum security prison in 1988.

[DaddyTorgo]

can't believe i fell asleep on the couch and didn't realize i could have been watching this!

[DaddyTorgo]

those are your people Lathum!!!

[Honolulu_Blue]

I don't think I've even flipped MTV on for a second since I moved back from Brussels in 2004. The only reason I watched MTV there was because it was one of like 3 channels in English. I don't even know what channel MTV is on.

I couldn't imagine watching this show. I spend most of my time trying to avoid people like this.

[Mizzou B-ball fan]

those are your guidos Lathum!!!

Fixed.

[Logan]

Before I watched it I was all on that "this is BS...most of these people aren't from New Jersey (one dude is actually from the town next to where I grew up)...they are the worst of the worst of the worst of what we see at the Jersey Shore...Seaside is disgusting, they couldn't have gone to Belmar or Pt Pleasant, etc?...no one I've ever met is this bad..."

But now that I watched it, god damn this was hysterical and I'll be watching, at least as long as it doesn't get too old. I mean one girl actually said, "I'm a bartender, I do great things" which should be on one of those shirts they're trying to sell. And I almost fell off the couch when I saw that punch posted above, and I can't wait to see the aftermath (side note: that's obviously ridiculous and I hope that guy is in jail).

(And btw, fuck you if you want to judge me and where I grew up based off of this show)

Sports Guy also did a very entertaining podcast about the show.

having been forced to endure the people at the shore for 4 years, i may have to actually put MTV in my currently filtered channels so i can watch this for the pure gold i am sure it must be.

I couldn't make it past the intro's of the first episode....

[Pumpy Tudors]

I wish that GIF was longer. I want to see what happened in the next 2 or 3 seconds.

[Radii]

"See this is how we know we are classy girls. We've been in this house with those guys for two whole days and we haven't done anything with them yet."


There's definitely trainwreck/can't turn away element to this show, haha.

[digamma]

Question posed to me by a friend: how much money would it take for you to down a full glass of the roof deck hot tub water?

Ugh. LOL. I don't know it's the holidays and I'm pretty hard up for cash so I'd probably do it for a G.

[Izulde]

First thought after first 5 minutes of episode 1: "These are not the guidos you're looking for."

[Ironhead]

I don't think I can watch this show. I get sick enough of them during the summer that I don't want to see them on my TV.

[Izulde]

I seriously want to knock the fuck out of Angelina. She's such an uptight skank bitch.

[DeToxRox]

Damn already posted.

[digamma]

Ugh. LOL. I don't know it's the holidays and I'm pretty hard up for cash so I'd probably do it for a G.

I think you are seriously underestimating the amount of bacteria in the tub. Think of the different kinds of bodily fluids from the vast numbers of people in the tub. Add to that the mounds and mounds of carcinogens from hair gels and other products. You might need more than a tetanus shot just to make it through the day.

Would it change your number if you had no immediate access to antibiotics?

[DaddyTorgo]

wow - this show is epic in its hilariousness!

[Radii]

I'll second/third/whatever anyone who says to listen to the Bill Simmons podcast about the show, great stuff.

[RedKingGold]

How have I missed this?

[Ramzavail]

"I felt like eating ham and drinking water"

[Logan]

Ham!




Water!

[DaddyTorgo]

clearly the people on the show are starting to realize now, but do you think they realized when they taped it that people would be laughing at them so much? or do you think they thought this was like their shot a la the cast of "Hills?"

[Mizzou B-ball fan]

Oh, they definitely thought they were some form of 'cool'. They're also likely not smart enough to realize that the world is laughing at them.

[Matthean]

I think there is a situation with "The Situation" about "The Situation's" over usage of the phrase "The Situation." It's like "The Situation" has to use it during any and all situations.

These morons think they are the coolest people in the world. Trust me, I have had enough interaction with idiots like these fools to last a lifetime. They will continue to think they are the coolest people in the world. Their self centered world doesn't allow them the capacity to realize the majority of people in the world see them as the clowns they are.

[Logan]

I'm almost positive that the show and the people on it are acting, but yeah the not-so-exaggerated-stereotype types don't realize how sad it is.

[JS19]

I was debating telling this story or not, because I very well may come across as a douchebag, but personally, it really felt so good doing it. A couple years ago some friends and I were in Seaside (I hate seaside, but i just went along bc that's where everyone wanted to go). Earlier in the day, some friends of mine go in a little scuffle on the beach with the guido type douchebags, nothing crazy but words were exchanged and some shoving. I never got the full details, but I very well can see my friends instigating the whole situation bc they can't stand guys like that and probably called them out on their douchebagness. Anyhow, later on that evening we're on the boardwalk and we bump into these guys again. My one buddy gets right in this guys face and is degrading him like I've never seen before. Knowing that seaside cops are all over the boardwalk, I decide to get in between them, my back to the douchebag, to calm things down and be on our way. I finally get my buddy to shut his mouth and he starts walking away. My back is still to the douche, I'm probably a little less than an arms length away from him. He then decides to say some derogatory comment about my friends girlfriend, and that set me off, did a quick turnaround and BAM, straight right to the jaw and this fucker was down.

I felt like a semi-douchebag bc it just seems like a bunch of testosterone filled punk guys getting into fights on the boardwalk, how typical. But that's not my style at all, I'm the easy going laid back kind of guy who just likes to have a good time, but even I can't stand guys like this. They give Italians and New Yorkers a horrible rep. Not gonna lie, when I'm tipping the scales at 160, it felt great dropping this guy in front of all his friends, a guy who probably weighed close to 190-200lbs, sporting his white tank-top showing off his steroid abused body.

Not entirely sure why I told that, just seeing all the hatred for these guys in this thread, maybe some of you can get a little enjoyment knowing that scumbags like this do get called out on their bullshit and are really just a bunch of pussies.

[JediKooter]

I didn't see this, but, what was the popped collar count?

[Noop]

This is why I am going to watch the show...

Interesting I posted a gif of a guy hitting a female(it was questionable at best) and Skydog felt the need to delete it and give me a stern warning about it. I guess the times are changing...

If it makes you feel better I regularly punch cubans and frat boys in the mouth.

I think it was a Japanese comedy one or something.

might be because you're black? ;)

SkyDog doesn't even read the forum anymore. Unless someone complains, nothing will happen.

I couldn't watch the first episode online, it was too unbearable. But what is the reason of for action?

[Ronnie Dobbs2]

Sadly this is from a future episode.

[JediKooter]

Actually looks like he hits the guy in the nose first, then her chin.

[RainMaker]

Dominos pulled ads from the show today. I'm guessing more will follow.

My only issue with the show is that there is a young generation of kids who are growing up thinking this is cool.

[JediKooter]

Instead bringing back the Greatest American Hero, we get this garbage...

[thesloppy]

"I think he got it from dancing with that skank. When he was diving through the fat chick's legs, maybe she let something out when he was sliding through and particles got in his eye, or something like that."

[Izulde]

If you don't love The Situation, I'ma make you love The Situation.

[BYU 14]

Not now Chief, I'm in the fucking zone!

[JS19]

So, after continuously seeing this on one channel or another, that dude dropping that chick, it got me to thinking. Don't you have to sign some form of waiver/consent form to appear on this show? I find it hard to believe this douchebag would agree to have his image sent out for the world to see as he decks a girl in a bar.

While your point would appear valid to most sane people, you completely gloss over the fact that most of the people in and around that shithole are talentless famewhores that would gladly appear on TV for any reason at all, even if it was completely giving up any shred of dignity they had left.

[Oilers9911]

The decline of the western civilization part 1000. MTV should be dissolved and banned for this.

If by dissolved and banned, you mean given all sorts of television awards, I completely agree.

I heard that douche bag who punched Snooki is a teacher too. I'd venture to say, not anymore.

He's been rubber roomed.

So yeah, I liked this show. Didn't think I would but there was something about it that just made it so entertaining.

Official 'Jersey Shore' Season 2 Drinking Game Rules | BroBible.com (http://bit.ly/dkReI8)

Some bros and I took the initial "Jersey Shore" drinking game suggestions that BroBible posted and added a bunch more. The game ended up being a lot of fun so we restructured some new rules for Season 2.

Pre-Episode Proposition Bets:
Before the start of the show, anyone participating in the game will wager on the "Jersey Shore" cast member to first be shown doing a typical guido/guidette activity during that episode. For each cast member you correctly select, you will get to dole out five drinks to others playing the game.


1. First cast member to be shown fist pumping during the episode.
2. First to bring someone home to the house.
3. First to throw a punch or get into a fight.
4. First to be shown applying hair product/fixing their hair.
5. First to be shown or mention tanning.


Season 2 Rules:

1. Drink whenever a cast member screams “Miami!” at the top of their lungs.
2. Drink whenever a Season 1 guido term is used (i.e. “Grenade,” “GTL,” “Ron Ron Juice,” etc.).
3. Drink whenever the cast visits the gym, tanning salon, laundromat, or barber shop. Drink 3 if the cast members are shown completing each stage of the G.T.L. trifecta.
4. Drink every time someone uses the word “Bro.”
5. Drink whenever Snooki eats a pickle.
6. Drink whenever Angelina “cock blocks” another cast member.
7. Drink when one of the cast members assigns a nickname to one of the girls/guys they bring home (i.e. “Cowboy,” “Freckles McGee,” “The Grenade”).
8. Drink whenever a hookup mishap takes place (examples from Season 1 include Mike’s date falls down the stairs, Snooki’s guy vomiting while they’re hooking up, Snooki’s guy falling asleep mid-hookup, Mike getting blocked by “The Grenade"). Drink twice if it ends up blocking Snooki or The Situation from closing the deal.
9. Drink anytime the cast members experience Southern culture shock.
10. Drink whenever Mike gets a fake telephone number or is stood up by or asked who he is by a girl he calls on the phone. Drink twice if other cast members are present to witness his failure.
11. Drink when the cast members get into a fight. If a cast member is arrested, later claims “self-defense,” or claims the fight was started by “haters,” drink one extra for each.
12. Drink one for each time Ronnie gets back together with Sammi. Drink one for each person they hook up with while they are “together.”
13. Drink whenever any of the guys hit on a girl who may not be of legal age.
14. Drink whenever Snooki takes off an article of clothing or accidentally reveals more of herself. Drink twice if the editing crew hasn’t made the shot blurred enough for you to endure without looking away.
15. Drink once for every hour between Ronnie and Sammi’s breakup to them making up. Drink one extra if Ronnie cries or says it’s his fault. Chug your drink if Sammi says it’s her fault.
16. Drink once for every person shown dancing at a Pauly D DJ appearance (first shot of the dance floor during each event).
17. Drink anytime a private security guard for the group makes his way into the shot or has to interfere in a fight.
18. Drink anytime the word “Gorilla” is used to describe someone in a positive light.
19. Drink whenever JWoww adjusts herself on camera.
20. Drink whenever Snooki gets drunk and does something to entertain herself (i.e. dances by herself, makes random phone calls, builds a bubble bath cave, etc.).


Season 1 Favorites (optional, and not for the weak of liver):

1. Drink when any cast member is applying hair product or references their hair (i.e. their “poof” or “blowout”).
2. Drink whenever a cast member is shown wearing sunglasses inside or at night.
3. Drink whenever one of the girls refers to themselves as “classy” or another girl as “trashy” or “trash,” a “skank,” “slut,” “whore,” “ho,” etc.
4. Drink when a cast member fist pumps. Drink 2 if the cast fist pumps as a group.
5. Drink whenever a cast member removes his shirt in public (i.e. not at the house).
6. Drink when you see JWoww’s side-boob. Drink only once for each outfit (i.e. if they show side boob before she goes out, drink once for that but do not drink again every time they show her out later that night in the same clothes).
7. Drink anytime you see Jager, Red Bull, Goose, and/or mixers (drink once for each type shown). Drink once if they come up with names for their drink (i.e. “Ron Ron Juice”). Drink once even if the newly named drink does not contain Jager, Red Bull, or Goose and mixers.
8. Drink whenever Mike refers to himself as “The Situation” or any other housemate makes a joke about whether he is or is not “The Situation.” Limit of 5 drinks per episode.
9. Drink whenever they mispronounce Nicole’s nickname “Snooki” (i.e. she is referred to as “Snickers,” “Snookers,” “Snookums,” etc.). Limit of 5 drinks per episode.
10. Drink when/if a cast member catches some kind of disease/illness (i.e. pink eye, venereal disease, etc.).


SEASON TWO STARTS TONIGHT!

[DaddyTorgo]

hahah

[digamma]

Ronnie was obliviated.

[DaddyTorgo]

My favorite was 2 minutes in when Snooki goes to her new "gorilla juicehead boyfriend" (talking about meatballs) "I want two balls...in the face."

WTF this show. So ridiculous.

[Radii]

Huh, so is this gonna be good for a second season? I deleted the season pass, buying into the idea that once these guys were "self aware" of their image it would basically ruin the show.

[DaddyTorgo]

I don't know - I think it certainly ruins some of it because it's self-aware, but at the same time they're still ridiculous so it's amusing to watch for that reason, even if a higher percentage of it is them being aware of being ridiculous.
