While I work on my Ask a Jew:Wedding Edition post (keep your questions coming!), please enjoy my poem about THE MOST DISTURBING SHOW IN THE HISTORY OF ANYTHING EVER. (Whenever I am simultaneously obsessed/horrified by a reality show, I tend to do this sort of thing):
I can’t recall where I first heard
About the wonder that is Rock of Love.
But I tell you this; I shan’t soon forget
This wonderful gift from above.
For who among us hasn’t rocked out
To “Every Rose Has Its Thorn”?
Bret Michaels would croon, the ladies would swoon
As the cowboy sang his “sad, sad song.”
But alas, Bret was lonely and the groupies grew…icky.
And were they still purty? NO.
So he filled up some buses with hooch and fake fur,
And a myriad of dirty hos.
Classy behavior took a leave of absence as the girls piled onto the buses.
Boob jobs abounded, as did minidresses and of course, extensions, galore.
There were many hot messes with talons and clear heels;
All of them bore the mark of the whore.
From among these skanks, Bret would choose only one;
A queen from among all the floozies.
If you ask me, I think he should simply choose
The "lady" who seems the least…oozy.
Because these girls look…well, how do I put it?
Their appearances give me bad dreams.
I fervently hope that our dear old Bret
Has received all required vaccines.
And speaking of Bret, what is up with his face?
Can you believe it once rocked a nation?
C’mon, even Axl knew when to say when
To guyliner and the foundation.
But back to the ladies (it’s why you’re all here).
Some of them seem to be…well, simple.
Like the girl who called herself an “animal traineress”
Or the one who seems to have PIERCED DIMPLES.
Cliques quickly formed (as they often do);
The “blondtourage” and the brunettes:
Ex-porn stars, Class-A Morons,
And a former Penthouse Pet.
I truly couldn’t believe it, though,
When a girl got totally wasted;
Puked Doritos and then kissed Brett, who said:
“It’s the best Dorito [he’d] tasted.”
I’M NOT KIDDING HERE, PEOPLE.
This really happened as I say it did.
A lady may have also served shots from her nethers;
But my memory’s mercifully faded.
I felt like I needed to shower after watching;
This show is really pretty bleak.
But then, I’d be lying if I tried to tell you
I wasn’t going to watch it next week.

Rock of Love is craptastic! But I can only watch it on TIVO so I can fast forward through the exceedingly stupid/cringe inducing parts!
Um confession: I've never seen it!!! But hasn't it been on for like three seasons now, and he STILL hasn't found someone to settle down with?
All I can say is this...
Keep watching. You will hear "Every Rose Has Its Thorn" APPROXIMATELY ONE HUNDRED MILLION TIMES before the series is over.
I know this how? Because. I've watched the two previous installments. That means I've heard "Every Rose Has Its Thorn" APPROXIMATELY TWO HUNDRED MILLION TIMES.
OH. MAH. GAWD. I love this!
I can't believe the level of skanktacular that they've reached. These chicks are over the top even for Bret. But I'm so hooked and oddly not ashamed of it. My husband, however, is mortified. When season 1 first started he called me in to watch, thinking (stupidly) that I'd laugh and change the channel. But I can't turn away.
I'm glad I'm not alone in this...
I just love you.
Also: someone needs to make a t-shirt that just says "The best Dorito he tasted."
Dear old Bret doesn't need any vaccinations. That man has been whoring it out for so long, he must have contracted and built up an immunity to ever STD science has discovered, and no doubt some they haven't.
My family went on vacation to Hawaii last spring break and I am VERY ashamed to say that we spent the first 2 days in the hotel watching this #$%^ show. It is pure addiction. Also, my brother had a 3rd degree sunburn, but still, ADDICTING.
I have only seen one episode of Rock Of Love, but I am a big fan of I Love Money which take the contestants of Rock of Love and I Love New York and makes them do things for money and then people get "bounced." it's GOLD.
crap...now i have to watch this shit?? hahah ;)
The Puke Kiss. I still can't get over that.
This poem rules.
I love that you wrote this on a notebook, with a pen! Just like Edna St. Vincent Millay and ee cummings.
I might actually have to watch it now...
Rockin' poem!
This was phenomenal!
I love this show. I do not think it is quality programming, but the trainwreckiness of it all it just awesome. And this season, I don't even know where they found those girls.
I hope Bret Michaels never finds love because he's way more entertaining than The Bachelor.
I cannot peel my eyes away from that train wreck of a show. I just cant. I am obsessed. Pierced dimples. Yuck.
This is the worst show ever and I'll watch every episode.
Where do they find these skanks? These women really take the whole nasty ho to a ho' new level. Ha!
And your poem was so lovely!
I watched it and that was the worst group of people I have ever seen on a reality show ever. I was amazed that they were all so so soo much worse than I thought possible.
My husband and I watch it, and laugh hystericaly every Sunday night. Seriously scary hos. I too hope that he has received all of his rabies and distemper shots...wonder if they vaccinate for protection from just being in the same room as those "girls". Shudder.
Well, Doritos pretty much taste the same way coming up as they do going down so I really can't fault him there.
Eeewww. Just eww. But what a lovely poem! heh ;)
Also - I just attended my first Jewish wedding a few months ago. Can't wait to see what questions come up, and your explanations!
My friend is a local weather girl here in Virginia and had the opportunity to interview Bret. He invited her and some of her co-workers to party on his tour bus afterwards, which she did, but he totally tried to pull her in the back of the bus to hook up! NASTY!! Since she is not skanky, she left soon after!
You are fantastic.
I think this is my favorite season of ROL yet! SKANKTACULAR!
The fact that both the army of sluts and BRET EFFING MICHAELS were shocked and appalled by the Cooter Shot Seen 'Round the World blows my mind.
Between ROL: BUS!, I Love Money 2 and TOOL ACADEMY I may never leave the house again. God bless YOU, VH1.
My love for Rock of Love knows no bounds. Sigh.
