Is American Idol subliminally lowering the iq of its viewers?
I am finding this easy to believe due to the fact that so many people ask the exact same, or very nearly same, questions. Every week, there are numerous questions based on "who got voted off American Idol tonight?" Really, 1 would have sufficed. This week there are multiple "How does it make you feel?" in relation to the one who was voted off tonight. Some of them are veiled with "Does it make you happy?", I hope no one minds unmarked spoilers. I just do not understand why so many people wish to lose 10 points to ask the same question that 50 or more people have already asked.
I am sure at normal times these people are not so incomprehensible. There for, I ask everyone, is American Idol doing this to them? Is there somenthing in the show which makes them not just have to find out the person going home before they would normally be able to, but also give the show so much free publicity that it becomes the most annoying television show to the magority of the the Answers community...
VA8326 -Ahh, you see it's contagious! I must have caught it through the computer.
Seriously, though, I am very interested in the public opinion of this question. I have not seen 50 questions already posted today asking exactly the same thing, so I do not feel I am wasting points, I am getting different answers as well, because this is not a straight 1 word answer type question.

A friend of mine insisted that I sit down and watch American Idol. From the sound of it I was already screaming inside to be some where else. Okay. so I sat down to watch it. The show started. Immediately, I had an overwhelming feeling that life was passing me by. As the show continued I began to breathe heavily from discontent. I felt trapped like a rat. The next think I know. My friend was slapping me gently saying...Are you okay? Are you okay? Speak to me! I was lying face up on the floor. I got up right away. I saw the TV and the show was going on. again I felt the sick feeling coming back. I ran outside. ( because I thought I was going to throw up). But I immediately felt better. I looked at the outdoors and said. I will never leave you again. And returned to living my life to the fullest.

AI is responsible for the dumbing-down of America. That's why I voted for Sanjaya. I'm doing a public service by trying to get AI off the air.
