I was on vacation over the past week in Houston and had a lot of time on my hands. I mean, A LOT of time on my hands. It was awesome. And during this time, I watched a bunch of TV I normally wouldn't have watched.

I landed on TLC at one point and there's a show called 90 Day Fiance: Before the 90 Days. I still don't have a clue what the point of the show is, and the title doesn't lend itself to a lot of help. But there is one scene that absolutely blew me away, simply because it was so weird.

This guy is admitting to his girlfriend that he has a sketchy past. He's done some prison and even had a restraining order against him by his ex. Now, that's not even the weird part. He's writing this stuff on a phone and translating it in text because the chick doesn't speak English. Still, not the weird part. While she's reading the text, the dude just gets up and runs away. And I mean RUNS AWAY. Behind a building, up over a small hill. And then, THEN, after the guy has bolted, the chick is walking through the park looking for him, and gets mugged, by a GUY WITH A MACHETE!

Here is the clip of him running away courtesy of TLC.

And this video isn't as good because it's someone filming their TV, but here is the mugging courtesy of MCDADON.

Oh, and here's another gem from the same couple I found on TLC's YouTube channel. The guy was so worried about swimming in untreated water, he put on a condom before I jumped in.
