Today, I offered "Girls Gone Wild" as an example of bad TV in my lecture thinking it was a reality TV show. It's porn. FML

Hey everyone, I am the OP. To answer your questions, I am a student in a ~50 person lecture. My professor was compiling a huge list of examples of bad tv on the board from students, and I threw up a few notoriously bad TV shows (like Keeping Up with the Kardashians). I vaguely remember seeing something on TV about GGW (a reference in another show). In the clip, a lot of girls partying and one of them flashed the cameras, but it was definitely blurred out. I thought it was just a risqué reality show with partying/clubbing, fighting, and a bit of blurred out nudity (like the Jersey Shore). Yes, I did get made fun of (the jerk behind me said, "I'm pretty sure that's a movie" in a snarky tone, and some people were like "…whaaaaaat?"). I kinda just looked around and was like, "isn't that a reality TV show?" A few people giggled, and the professor just blinked and moved onto the next person. Normally I don't talk about stuff I know nothing about, but participation is a significant portion of my grade, so I always try to participate any chance I get.

Well is it not tasteless tv? Technically it is because you could probably buy the **** package and get it

Dont worry. Confusing titles generally create problems! :-D

I really want to know what age group you presented this to...

Famous saying . "It is better to keep your mouth shut and look like a fool, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt." But really it's not that big of a deal op. At least you're I'm school instead of on film.

In the case of university classes, at least the one who removes all doubt gets participation marks.

You never thought to check your 'facts'?

They didn't, because it was on a whim during a group discussion.
