The Apprentice

anyone see last nights apprentice, pure genius.

whilst trying to sell cards to a chain of card shops, the ugly ginger one said she had cut down sending greetings cards because of the damage to the environment.

Then tried to sell them 1000s of "environment" greeting cards....!!!

 

How does Jenny keep surviving. Can't stand her!

 

the programme is basically big brother in suits. Those candidates haven't been specially selected as the brightest entrepreneurial minds in a million years. Generally speaking, they've been selected because they're tw@ts and it makes good, cheap reality TV.

 

Shouting at the telly last night.

 

Thrusting young executives one and all. Set 'o c-nts.

 

i recommend...

Charlie Brooker's rather tongue in cheek take on this kind of thing.

much more entertaining

 

It's just tosh, at least Big Brother isn't dressed up as anything else but watching people act like tw@ts and argue a bit.

"Rupert has given up his £120k a year job to live his dream of working for Alan, in this weeks task his group need to sell £1000 worth of strawberries........"

Next scene

"Rupert is attempting to 'think outside the box' and has bought 2 sticks of celery and is now trying to make fire in the corner of the room, with the celery. He has 4 minutes left to convince his team"

 

Ah yes

King Charlie - quality indeed.

 

How any of them have managed to become anything other than **** shovellers is beyond me. That verbal assault on that poor lass when she got back to the house after the boardroom spoke volumes about their character.

 

BIG BROTHER starts soon, get in!

Softens the blow of the end of the footy season

 

And these people effectively end up in powerful managerial positions. That's the same people who've spent the last 16 weeks being incompetent, arrogant backstabbing tossers of the very highest order.

I'd walk out if any of them was introduced to me as my manager.

 

RE: BIG BROTHER starts soon, get in!

Is oakwell on it this time?

 

I've not watched any of this series, I've watched about 5 in total and with a few exceptions, they're generally a bunch of sly and deceitful tossers who would step over their own dying family to make a few quid.

If anyone has "starred in The Apprentice" on their CV, it should exclude them from employment that involves any kind of decision making.

 

As Charlie Brooker is keen on pointing out on his screenwipe programme

 

I've not seen that. I've read one of his books though and thought it was brilliant.

 

Just as excellent

Have a browse on youtube mate - most of the series' are on there.</p>

Top stuff in my opinion</p>

 

They're all walking management text books.</p>

George Dawes that got kicked off last night was making large of the fact he'd got a Porsche by the time he was 23. At that point, having discovered that Porsche ownership was desirable amongst that lot the whole series should have been taken off air.</p>

 

The bullying of Sara

Unforgivable. It never even crossed Matt Lucas' mind to bring her back in until Jenny the Horse started banging on that she'd done 'nowt. And as for that cockney **** having a pop at her back in the house, if he'stortured by Islamicfundamentalists in next week's Morocco trip, the world will be a better place.
