With reality programming and talk shows showing no signs of decreased
popularity, it’s becoming more and more obvious that Andy Warhol was correct
when he declared that in the future everyone will be famous for 15 minutes.
But even the great Warhol could not have guessed that we’d squander that
quarter-hour wagging our fingers in the air and shouting, “No you di-unt, NO
YOU DI-UNT!” It’s a Springer world out there, kiddos, and it’s almost
impossible to turn around without being reminded that somewhere, somehow
somebody we love is doing us like a dog. Malls carry spy equipment to “check
up” on ourloved ones. Billboards for DNA testing ask, “Who’s the real daddy?”
Now an advertising campaign on MATA buses for AIDS testing asks, “Your boo is
doing you…and who?” No you di-unt, MATA, NO YOU DI-UNT!
