I don't think they did such a horrible job. Sure, tickling is a relatively normal human interraction, but for those for whom it's not a fetish, our fixation on it must seem a little "out there". Take a look at the other segments on the wtf page.
I don't mind saying at all, without apology, that some of the stuff on there seems bizarre as hell to me. Sneezing/snot fetish? Adult diapers? CAT SPANKING?!? Wow. And I'm sure that people into those things would be offended by how they were ridiculed on there. But how could you not see someone into cat spanking as out there?
As far as them focusing on */F...that's an easy one. They picked on us (straight men into */F stuff) because for one thing we're the majority of stuff on the web, and more importantly, they'd be seen as being "intolerant" or whatever if they ridiculed gay people into tickling. Notice that pretty much all of the wtf fetish stuff is aimed squarely at straight men.
Sure, the little nerdy hosts can be arrogant and annoying, but I was kinda happy when I saw this segment. I enjoyed seeing Angelica and some of my other favorite 'lees laughing it up on the flat screen instead of the computer screen for a change.
It made me wonder if any of the 'lees friends or family members who'd never known about what their daughter/girlfriend/cousin whatever did for spare cash until that point had a WTF! moment of their own. 😉
P.S. - Can anyone post this in wmv format?
