Quit angrily writing the FCC and help me get this fucking harpoon out of my stomach!


Okay. Let’s get this out of the way at the start: Some of these could very well be fake complaints. But you and I both know that, this being the United States, odds are that most of them are very real.

Apparently, Prince’s performance (and other displays) at the Super Bowl were not appreciated by all. The Smoking Gun has a few FCC complaint letters, and they are freaking precious*. (sic throughout.)

It makes me sick that my kids were in the living room of our home and watched this adult male on TV make graphic gestures with his guitar, making it look like he was holding onto a penis and testices!!! I CAN NOT BELIEVE YOU ALLOWED THIS TOO AIR, then again, YES I CAN!!!

The sheet? that was the backdrop seemed to be (stained?) with something (semen?) My children were watching and now I have to explain to them what a wet spot is on a cum covered sheet.

My husband was in the kitchen when our son said, “What the ?!” My husband rushed in to see the men kissing.

It was obscene to show Prince, a HOMOSEXUAL person through a sheet, as to show his siluette while his guitar showed a very phalic symbol coming from his below-midriff section. I am very offended and I would preffer not to have showed it to my 4 children who love football. One of them has hoped to be a quarterback and now he will turn out gay. I am actually considering to check him for HIV. Thanks CBS for turning my son GAY.

This image only made {Prince} look extremely large which made the rest of us feel small, and unable to preform this evening.
