So, I know a lot of people do community service and volunteer. And that's not really what I'm talking about here. The reason I stated that question is because i have to go to Goodwill to do community service if i don't have a job...

jedijo The first reality show I ever watched was Survivor. After watching a few episodes, I realized that it was teaching people to be sneaky, conniving, and underhanded. I remember thinking that this is NOT what society needs. I have not seen another episode since...
