There's investigative journalism..

..and then there's investigative journalism. From The Wave ("The Bay Area's Best Entertainment Magazine... Ever") we have Blind Date, Leiderhosen, and Me: Deep inside the world of reality dating shows.
People don’t tune in to see true romance, but to see people FAIL and/or look STUPID! (and occasionally “get busy”). Reality dating shows aren’t about true romance; they’re about making good television. And I think it can be agreed that I make good television. That’s why I must infiltrate Blind Date.

Thanks to skamille for this, uh, enlightening story. :)

I doubt that many men go to quite those lengths to fuck with the show.. and in this case, it seems like he missed out on a potentially nice/interesting/pretty girl in favor of outlandishness. As someone who hasn't had much of a chance with anyone in months, I'm annoyed on principle. ;)
