I should be sat in a library reading a biography of the celebrated English Romantic poet John Keats, instead I’ve just watched two hours of ‘Young, Dumb, Living Off Mum’ and am now listening to Justin Bieber slowed down 800% – both of these things are brilliant:

YDALOM is everything Big Brother should be and for this BBC3 should be congratulated on creating such a brilliant show. Basically the premise is to throw a load of spoilt young adults together in the same house, many of whom make mentally handicapped rocks look clever, all of whom make mentally handicapped rocks look clever, and then force them to become independant…to a degree. YDALOM follows in the footsteps of another BBC3 classic ‘Snog, Marry, Avoid!’, in exposing the cretinous underbelly of young adults in England. We all know these idiots exist, and handily the beeb decides to present them in a nicely packaged format for our lazy consumption.

It is superior to the now defunct format of Big Brother because BBC3 doesn’t care about controversy – for some surprising reason – and because of this we, as viewers, get embroiled in the thick of expletive ridden slanging matches about who should wash the dishes – a situation that struck me as very similar to many stand offs in my last house – but the fact that it isn’t me means that it’s fucking awesome!! Furthermore I can totally facebook stalk these idiots and check out how true to life their portrayals are (FYI they’re identical).

Oh and the J.BIEBZ t’ing? Yeah it’s awesome, it’s as if Sigur Ros started a song and then forgot how it ended, ala Bender and Beck in Futurama – anyway, check it out, it’s beautiful: http://soundcloud.com/shamantis/j-biebz-u-smile-800-slower
