Guy Fieri: A Food Network Monopoly

Guy Fieri: A Food Network Monopoly

Anyone who is remotely in touch with society knows who Guy Fieri is. Here are some reasons why Food Network needs to cut back his air time.

1. He has a Bachelor of Science in Hotel Management.


He didn't go to culinary school. You can't eat a hotel.

2. He yells all the time.


I don't think I've ever heard Guy Fieri talk at a normal speaking volume.

3. He has a poor sense of taste.

If you've eaten at any restaurant he's been to on "Diners Drive-Ins and Dives," they're not even that good. Some of what he eats looks actually disgusting. (See the chicken pie from season 17 episode 8, pictured above, that looks like a human female breast. While a breast is not disgusting, a food in the shape of a body part is just a little unsettling.)

4. He occupies too much air time

5. He's probably on right now.

Every time I turn on the TV, Guy Fieri is there yelling at me. I feel personally victimized by Guy Fieri.

6. As I am writing this article, Guy Fieri is on for another seven and a half hours.

Nobody should monopolize that much air time.

6. There’s better programming that could be on.

Even other reality TV shows like "Cutthroat Kitchen" and "Chopped" are more entertaining. At least the contestants don't yell at me.

7. He unironically says things like “flavortown."

What does it even mean?

8. The food at his restaurants invalidates his credibility as a TV show host.

See this lovely New York Times review his restaurant received.

9. He’s on Food Network but he doesn’t make his own food.

He is always eating food, but Guy Fieri is not known for making food. Why is he on Food Network?

10. He just can't be taken seriously with his style.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
