oxymoron?

by

ironic?
counter-intuitive?
disgusting?
i can’t seem to find the right word to describe the fact that home alone has been playing on A&E every time i’ve turned to it in the last week. i thought it meant “arts & entertainment” not “asinine & effete”.

    I thought it was just me!! I even went and made sure I had the right channel and they didn’t rearrange our cable. I’d go to turn on Law and Order, and there would be Home Alone. WTF?
    Well, tonight L&O is finally on. But I can never quite escape the memory of the insult to their viewers replacing it with such trash. (BTW, how in the world would the crowd that normally watches Law and Order be into Home Alone, you know? I mean, it’s 11 fricken pm, anyone up at that hour who wants to watch Home Alone is probably high enough to get as much of a kick out of Law and Order!)
