Manna for the mindless

Manna for the mindless is a disparaging description of television programmes that do no more than fill up air time. The programmes that are banal, trivial and boring and which, if they were a person, would be described as a WOFS. You know the sort of crap, pretty well all of daytime television, soap operas screened at any time, moronic game shows, chat shows featuring liggers or z-list celebrities, the list just goes on. It is the sort of programme which doesn’t require dumbing down as it is targeted at fuckwits or insomniacs who need something other than drugs to help them sleep.
Before twenty-four seven television was inflicted on a long-suffering human race, manna for the mindless was typified by film serials where the hero always overcame impossible odds to rescue the heroine from an impossible situation and the villain was always defeated. Either that or the Hollywood musical of the 1950s such as Carousel or South Pacific, total shite consisting of totally forgettable songs, stilted dialogue and a non-existent plot.

Menna

The person that could be lost through the crowd but once you meet her she can’t be lost and will glow through everybody else. She’s a type of person to bring the best parts of you to person. Menna is the best thing that’ll happen in your life. For all the happiness she brings there’s one thing that could hurt you more than anything. Her leaving, she’s an amazing person and once you know her you won’t regret it no matter what happens she’s there for help because she’s a great person. Menna is beautiful inside and out and if you meet one then don’t mess things up

Nicki Minaj

Female rapper from Young Money Entertainment, Lil Wayne's label (her mentor). She firstly rose to fame by releasing her mixtapes series throughout 2007 and 2009; then, in 2010, she became one of the most skillful and successful femcees of all-time, when she released 'Pink Friday', which scored her a number one spot on the Billboard 200 chart. Her fame rises more and more when she was enlisted through long series of collaborations with rappers and singers, and with it she showed her most colorful image on the second record 'Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded' when she incarnated her most famous alter ego, Roman Zolanski, an angrier and dangerous version of her 2009-2010 one, Harajuku Barbie or simply Barbie. In 2013, she had a hiatus in the music industry, when she decided to surprsingly start her own branch of activities: a perfume, own clothing line, a drink, her movie role and her Beats by Dre pink pill endorsing collection. She appeared in at least 20 collaborations, that year, making her the most featured femcee ever (besides Stacey Ray, who before had 18 in 2012): that wasn't when she delivered a more sexy image of herself with more blonde and black wigs than the colorful ones.

Manna for the mindless

Deriving from the tag 'Manna for the mind' used to describe books and literature, 'Manna for the mindless' is a disparaging but accurate description of banal entertainment of any sort, particularly daytime television, long running soaps, stupid game shows, chat shows and so on. It consists of material that is so dumb it doesn't require 'dumbing down' and is no more than prdigested pap which can be understood by people with a below normal IQ. Before the advent of twenty-four seven television manna for the mindless was typified by the Hollywood musical of the 1950s. These consisting entirely of eminently forgettable songs joined together by crappy dialogue and a plot so thin you could shoot peas through it.
