VETERANS DAY AMBUSH MAKEOVERS

Happened to flip on NBC just now, and they're running a segment titled:

"VETERANS DAY AMBUSH MAKEOVERS: Honoring Servicewomen With A Whole New Look"

"Ambush," really? Fucking REALLY?

I was going to eat. Not so much any more. I swear to God and sonny Jesus, I am not built for this place. I want to crawl out of my skin.

"Ambush makeovers" for veterans. It beggars language. My tongue is in my teeth.

Un-fucking-real.

They do these "ambush" makeovers usually on Thursdays, I think, and I've always thought the name was...tacky to say the least. But you'd think there'd be someone on staff with common sense enough not to run an "ambush" segment for Veteran's Day!
