CULTURAL RIGHT #1: The Right to Make Fun of Your Own

So we're sitting around, seven of us, as the credits to the Academy Awards scroll by, and somebody (OK, me) makes the suggestion that we can either watch the Barbara Walters Interviews or Queer as Folk. The latter is enthusiastically chosen.

It's 10 o'clock as the opening sequence begins. We comment thus:

[names have been changed to deny the speakers due recognition for their wit]

Gene: Hey, how 'bout that! It's starting right on time!
Ralph: To be more realistic, it should start ten minutes early or late.
Gene: You mean ten or twenty minutes late.
Jessica: If they really wanted to make it true-to-life, every once in a while it should just not appear when scheduled, with no explanation.
