MTV, WTF?

Dear MTV,

I have a bone to pick with you about your new show, "Scarred." I watched it last night when you snuck it in between two shows that are funny ("Punk'd" and "Human Giant"). This was extra sneaky of you, MTV. There I am, watching Ashton Kutcher do all those funny things to his celeb friends when suddenly, OUT OF NOWHERE, you put on this show with home movies of retarded teenagers falling and breaking their asses. I thought you told me it was funny when people fell off skateboards and hit each other in the balls (case in point, "Jackass," "Wildboyz" and all of those shows you gave Bam Margera and Steve-O), but these clips are definitely NOT FUNNY. See below:

Those look like major unfunny ouchies, MTV. How come I never see Steve-O at the hospital or Johnny Knoxville's bones all poking out of his arms? I thought there weren't any consequences when men acted like 13 year old boys and now you're all like, "Look what can happen when you act like an idiot on a skateboard." That's pretty much like telling me one day Britney Spears will go from being a Southern pop princess sweetheart to a bald-headed trailer trash crazy, or that there's no Santa Claus, or that all those lucky kids who get their ride pimped get it jacked in the 'hood a day later. Not cool, MTV. Not cool.
