I couldn't stand the commercials, or the fake people or biased news casts. It was all a giant waste of time wrapped up in a fatty deja vu burger of sitting on your ass on the couch.

Eeeexactly man.
My mom and brother are tv-aholics, watching TV just because its there, wasting hours at a time...especially my mom and those retarded "reality tv" shows, or "game shows."
If I sit down and watch tv, I'm usually only on for 30 minutes, watching sexyman Mike Rowe on the Discovery Channel.
But I don't even do that anymore, cause all his episodes are available on his website!
Nowadays, I'm only near the tv, because the couch is near the TV, and I wanna lie down.
But when I move out, there's no way I'm buying cable. Oh I'll get a TV to play my video games.
But even my boyfriend agrees, Cable is a waste of time. I'm an internet nut anyways, so it all works out. I'll just pay for a fiber optic connection (mmm...), and never, ever, get a home phone. I h.a.t.e. home phones.
Besides, if there are any shows worth watching, they're available online or on DVD. ^_^ And I much prefer that. You get to watch it when you want, not when its airing.
