    <p>I basically stopped going to the NZ newspaper websites because of the Bachelor stuff. It's completely fucked.</p>

    <p>The articles are rubbish, but the comments are gold about the Bachelor.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Especially now. Naz went full throttle trailer trash last night, and tonight we learn that Jordan and Fleur are no more. (And she got to front the media by herself cos Jordan has gone into hiding.)</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>That guy would have to be the biggest jerk off in NZ. I hope Fleur hocks the ring, goes on a let hair down holiday and finds someone awesome.</p>

    <p>I didn't watch either of the seasons (honest), but the second bachelor seemed like a way shitter choice than the first guy. </p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>The worst thing is that half of the women from the show now take aim at being B grade celebs and launching careers on the back of competing with 20 other women for the same guy. </p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>I saw one article today where one of the bachelorettes had made a facebook post directed at the angry/slutty one saying that "young women around the country look up to us" and therefore they must act like role models. If my daughter ever looked up to either of them, she'd be locked in her room until she's 30.</p>

    <p>I didn't watch either season either (see previous comments about no tv/fixed data) but the articles gave quite a rundown, and as I said, the comments are hilarious.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>The people who watch the bachelor were clearly expecting another Art type, but Jordan was just a complete dick. Not funny, not fun, not smart, just bland as fuck, super immature, and totally self absorbed.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Interesting quandary for TV3 now. Dare they try again?</p>

    <p>I see the top news today is more shite about The Bachelor, on both sites, so really if they merge it will just be one less website of shite.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Is great there is so little going on in the world that this stuff is top news and apparently the Bachelor dude should apologise to NZ males.</p>

    <p>In a statement about the show star Jordan Mauger said "totally worth it, I got two roots".</p>

    <p>He's actually torpedoed his own potential with all this. Naz will no doubt get offers for some shock jock type thing where her 'straight talking bad girl' will fit in. But Jordan isn't a ruthless or charming bad boy, he's just a flighty loser who didn't even have the balls to front up after the dumping. HUGE difference from a marketing perspective.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>With a huge proportion of viewers disgusted with him, who would hire him? He's got no experience or winning personality. Nothing from the show would indicate acting is a career he could master.</p>

    <p>Not so sure. His voice is a dead ringer for John Key's. The first time I heard him, was a  quick double take of "WTF is John Key on about?"  :)</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>When the Donald wins, we can fit him out with a Key mask and send him to the US to share his experiences of reality TV with Don.</p>

    <p>In taxi on way home last night, logged on to the herald.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Huge headline, lead story scoop - some fucknuts from tv breaks up with some other wannabe celebrity.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Second, much smaller.  Large earthquake hits Christchurch.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>I felt like crying.</p>
