I'd rather reserve my disgust for something other than unreality TV. No, it wasn't aimed at you. Spleen venting should be saved, no matter how ineffectual, for those who deserve it. You're alright in my book. Perhaps, but then, I’m not going to eat horse poop just to see how many vitamins I can extract from it.

This isn't a scientific experiment by a long shot. This is sheer entertainment. I'll say that again: this is meant to entertain YOU. What a wondefully exploitative concept. Let's manipulate these kids and dramatise the whole thing for the audience of sadistic dimwits that will enjoy this, perhaps believing that they 'got' something from it. I despise you, you inhumane monster. Welcome to the dehumanisation game. You make me sick. Disgusting. This isn’t a scientific experiment by a long shot. This is sheer entertainment.

I agree, it sounds like a fantastic social experiment. As quite possibly “inhumane” to any far too P.C. people reading this: Yes. I agree, it sounds like a fantastic social experiment.
