Alana Thompson aka Honey Boo Boo

[SoonerQueen]

Here she is wearing her Sooner Girl t shirt. People from all over the world send this child gifts.Someone from Oklahoma sent her this shirt.

It's a sad statement for humanity that people actually watch that show.

[JayhawkTransplant]

I watch some terrible tv. I will be the first to admit that.

But I have tried to watch that show on 2 occasions (mainly because I remembered her from an episode of Toddlers & Tiaras). I can't get through more than 2 or 3 minutes. It is just plain nasty. It's sad that people watch that show, but even sadder that people will stoop that low for their 5 minutes. There is no way that they aren't embellishing their nastiness just for tv.

Leave it to SoonerQueen to start a Honey Boo Boo thread. Perfect.

Ugh, that show sickens me, but that gif is hilarious.

[Dustin]

You think thats funny, watch this:

Ever wonder why the more redneck areas are hit by tornadoes more than others? Maybe it is God trying to tell us "No, stop that!"

? I thought that message was sent with Hurricanes

[ShiroiHikari]

I'm just sad that this show even exists. Not surprised, but still sad.

[RadicalModerate]

Honey Boo Boo's Uncle will do anything
to get to see her win another pageant crown . . .

LOL That was funny

I didn't think anything could be worse than Dog, The Bounty Hunter. This poor girl and her family help reiterate that sterilization is the key to humanity's survival. These people make Deliverance look good.

What a train wreck.

[SoonerQueen]

I think the little girl is cute and very funny. I just wonder what her life will be like 10 years from now.

If you are into the dumb redneck thing, I guess.

10 years...working on her second child, weighing about 400lbs, missing 80% of her teeth, and living in a trailer with half her family still wearing her crowns.

It wouldn't bother me if she followed in former child beauty pageant queen JonBenét Ramsey's footsteps.

No matter how BAD this show is, To even suggest that a child be murdered is REPULSIVE!!!!

Yeah that's a bit rough.

Didn't suggest it, just said it wouldn't bother me, that's all.

Tweeeeeeeet! Party foul, over the line - 15 yards and loss of down.

I really feel sorry for the little girl. One day reality is going to slap her across the face and it won't be a pleasant experience for her.

Alright, maybe I've had a little too much "go-go juice."

Just when I thought the first comment couldn't get anymore repulsive.

In reality, I find this sort of programing pretty harmless as its absurdity should be pretty obvious to most viewers. The really scary programming can often be found on CBN and shows like the 700 Club.

10 years from now .... a rehash of train wreck britney comes to mind

[Martin]

while i find shows like this cringe-worthy but harmless, the part i find repulsive is that this airs on tlc, "the learning channel."

Last night, after I got home from work, I turned on the TV and did some channel surfing. Generally, I use The Guide (on-screen) to facilitate this activity. At some point I noticed half-hour segment after half-hour segment labeled "Here . . ." I thought, "What a strange name for a show." Since it was on TLC I thought maybe it was something educational, perhaps involving geography or advances in science. Then, after the long string of "Here . . ." s I saw the dreaded words "Toddlers and Tiaras" and realized, to my horror and relief, that I had just barely dodged the bullet of accidentally clicking on something involving Honey Boo Boo.

In all fairness, The Learning Channel reaches new heights in teaching us just how low American viewing taste and programming can go.

Oh! Here's a History Lesson on The Origins of Toddler Beauty Contests


Doesn't the name "Honey Boo Boo" remind you of a cartoon bee in one of those old "Educational Films" from about the same time as the vidclip, above? Like, a bee that is always doing something to mess up the hive . . . perhaps with the proper behavior demonstrated by another cartoon bee named "Honey Doo Doo"? . . . . . It doesn't? =)

[ShiroiHikari]

The only thing TLC is teaching anyone these days is how to exploit the worst traits of human nature for entertainment purposes. But they aren't the first, and they most certainly won't be the last.
