90% of all television is as bad, if not worse, as being addicted to heroin (Jersey Shore). What could possibly be a better way to forget about those bills piling up on your kitchen counter? Let’s all go bum around the front of an inane box and become mind numbing mechanical piles of lethargic goo. When people can’t figure out what to do with free time the television gets turned on and hours of productive time is lost forever. (None of my verbal spewing about television is in anyway related to “government/corporation conspiracy”. Conspiracies are stupid.)





I have a theory with boredom – Falling ill to the bitter boredomitus means you will strive to find something to do. In a typical situation, a person will turn on the TV as a way to combat boredomitus. So, if television is out of the picture then productivity is just that much closer. Most people have heard the saying, “The book is way better than the movie.” It’s because a book requires the brain to function far more than a movie could.
