Psychological Torture Television

My Fellow Inmates,

I need to tell you about a TV show so foul, so vile, so off the ever loving charts, that it truly makes Asylum proud.

The show is called Solitary

For anyone in to mental torture this show has it and in spades. Here is the concept:

Nine people enter the game. Each of them are placed is a separate cell in seclusion, they are sleep deprived, food deprived, and pushed to their limits.

The only access to the outside world that they have is a computerized voice called Val. Who has an answer to anything they say, and it’s usually a statement meant to twist them around and is often of mind fuck proportions.

The contestants must endure psychological torture for a chance to win $50,000.00. They can give up at any time but if they are the first in the group to give up the current torture then they are removed from the show.

The one that can hold up under the strain of the most psychological torture is the winner. They play against themselves since no one ever knows how the people they are competing against are doing, or if anyone has quit. You are sealed off, no idea how many days have passed, or whether its night or day,

Watching this, the first thought in my mind is this is one step above “The Running Man” in regards to what we will do to people for our own entertainment… Also it gives me many, many evil ideas J

If this is the direction of the degradation of our society I say step back and let it fall! The next step I want to see is bondage endurance shows…

I would tune in J

With that visiting time is over and the guards grow antsy...

Take care, and what ever you do don't scream too loud, others are trying to sleep
