Living life Television free. Anyone else?

[bacon]

I sincerely apologize to you Matty. I checked it out and it's packaging, not a catalogue :

 

[Matty]

cami I'm kidding. I haven't choked the chicken to anything but video porn since 1996.

 

[Cami]

Not even your own imagination? Or penthouse stories?

 

[Matty]

if memories of video porn count as imagination, sure

 

[bacon]

I watched a video of myself choking it to me imagining video porn

Not recommended

 

[Matty]

Matty you are correct. Should have said that network TV fits within 1st post parameters.

Government funded TV can be quite informative and educational but still robs the viewer of time itself (even if it is self imposed).

That's not really what I meant though, I'm referring mostly to news outlets and how they massage the info and choose what the "news" is. Recognizing bias and bullshit is a big part of the TV-watching experience.

There has been so much great stuff on TV that has enhanced my life. Not even the slightest interest in giving it up.

 

[Matty]

TV (and by TV I mean HBO and AMC series) has pretty much replaced fiction in my life.

Thinking about doing the same thing Muddy did and chuck my hundreds of dusty books.

 

[Cami]

Imagining things you have seen, or fantasizing is precisely what I meant. Don't know why I even asked, we all know we all do it.

Good for the world.

But you have a degree on books, how can you do that?

My life mantra is simply:

Oral guey

 

[roguejuror]

watching Springer marathons.

You can watch full episodes online!

Nice, xpy. I probably watch about three hours of TV per week. There are two shows that I watch, How I Met Your Mother and Boardwalk Empire. Outside of that, I'll watch CNBC from time to time.

I'm close to zero TV and have gone weeks without turning it on, but don't have the temptation that most people have I guess. I'd much rather spend my time doing something constructive.

 

[vagabond]

I haven't watched TV for more than five years. Internet streaming is restricted to a few movies/documentaries a month.

 

[Matty]

Vagabond what do you do all day?

 

[vagabond]

Reading, walking and just sitting in my backyard (i.e. doing nothing) takes up most of the time. On occasions, I would skype for an hour or more. The lack of urgency to be somewhere or to do something in the morning is the key for me. You just do things at an easy pace.

We read.
