A friend of mine loves The Indentured Servant. I have to wonder, who wants to watch DonAl Has Trump, who has bankrupted a company without losing his own wealth, but has stolen away people’s retirement hopes, train the next bankrupters of America. Are these potential indentured servants (they serve a higher evil power) so desperate for any kind of work, they don’t mind that they might get a rubber check: Is a rubber check and the hopes of a job better than no check at all? Alternatively, are these ContestAnts just doing it because, “Any publicity is good publicity.” If so, just remember that while this adage is true, so is the one that goes, “An old dog feels freer to bite the hand that feeds it rather than the devil id doesn’t know.” In addition, I know from personal experience (no I do not have a dog) that when a payroll check bounces it's like a day without…pay. Sometimes it’s even like a week or two or four weeks without pay (depending on often you get a paycheck). And it’s no fun. It’s like taking a test (similar to what they do on The Indentured Servant) without ever getting the results.
Okay, so working for DonAl may not be like a test without results—but it’s certainly like waking up and having a bad hair day. Can’t DonAl find the time to get a better hairdo (I suspect that’s why he keeps getting divorced)? And speaking of divorces, can’t he afford a Stepford Wife (then he wouldn’t have to do his hair, because his robot wife would do it for him). Okay, so maybe they don’t make robots unsophisticated enough to marry DonAl and unfortunately God hasn’t made women sophisticated enough to not fall in love with his money. Nonetheless, maybe DonAl should just marry a hairdresser. Then her tip could be his tip and it would all stay in the family. Unless he doesn’t tip. Could he be that cheap? Okay, so maybe he’s not that cheap with his wife (still, I wonder, would he be that cheap with employees?). And maybe he keeps his hair that way because the Toup-look is coming back into style (next he’ll be doing a comb over, or is that a comb over?). Okay, I’ll admit it, his hair has become his signature—like Jacko’s missing nose is his—but who would want their hair to be their most mentioned quality? Not me. Still, I guess, “Any publicity is good publicity.”
Ask Marta Stew Art. She’s made an Art of getting herself out of a Stew. As a convicted criminal, you’d think no one would like her anymore. But I guess I should have known better. If Orange Juice can get away with murder and if Bigamist Bill (he would have married twice if he could have) can get away with not knowing what sex is then Marta can get away with a spike in popularity after becoming an ex-con. Jacko gained popularity it happen too. But at least Jacko got out of the limelight. Marta jumped right into it by becoming the host of The Indentured Servant 2.
