Anyway, most people prefer denial anyway
It's hard to take anything on TV seriously. News included, let alone entertainment.
I too, but not when it's important
Well just try to make sense of things then
TV tells you what's "important", that's the problem.
They use small truths to convince you that bigger things are issues.
They use big names and big platforms to validate them.
It's all propagandization and conspiracy theories.
I used to love watching Law&Order: SVU... Then I stopped. Criminal Minds was next. Loved that series. Then I stopped
@GingerSnaps agreed.
A lot of propaganda on TV
I stopped watching some of my fave shows cuz I suddenly realized some of the propaganda in them
Honestly, if it isn't entertainment, I don't even watch TV. Not for a couple years now. Maybe a decade. I prefer YouTube, it's more informing and customizable.
And free.
I like TV cuz you get to just vegetate. On computer you have to engage: "I want this video; now that site..." TV you sit down and relax and just let the TV do everything. Of course don't be a zombie either but TV has its uses
Lmao vegetate is a great word.
🥗
TV is a nuisance in 2018 though. Other than DVR, where you can skip commercials and choose programming. Though, that's essentially what YouTube does. Same time, torrents are king.
Yeah
I like to be versatile
Is that a Fergie song? @Rhunespire
Commercial comes on. "Sure." Only crappy shows. "Why not?" Hanging with someone who watches stuff I don't watch, like wrestling, curling (weird ice game), car racing, golf, etc. "You can do it!" That way if I'm stuck in adverse circumstances, I don't kill someone or myself. So let the ads play so when DVR is available it's only 'better'
'better' rather than 'the only choice I'll tolerate'
@Templar no it's some other artist, cant remember the name
Oh nice play
👌🏽
Versatility makes life way easier too
The name of the song is So Fresh and so clean, I think it was Outkast
Gives you options, abilities, tolerance, and patience that others don't have
Wasn't Outkast
Yes it was Outkast
I think I'm thinking of the one by Pretty Ricky
I've watched soap operas with my aunt just cuz she wanted to watch them. I'd rather literally watch paint dry than watch soaps
Can't stand wrestling which is soaps for men, but absolutely don't want to kill brain cells and end up trying to boycott soaps after trying to watch one if I don't have to watch one
There's a user on this server that's huge into wrestling. I don't get it either. Most sports are boring and pointless to me.
Playing them is one thing, spectating is another.
I used to watch and play sports a lot
More I prefer to play. Watching feels too lazy to me especially if I'm watching with others and HEAR them talking about sports like it has any impact on our world, like its relevant, important, or of any value in the big picture
Yeah, that's exactly my point. So many people think that that's more important than the actual things that matter in life.
I can understand why many women get upset when men run to sports on TV (besides women being selfish and so only what they like makes sense to them). Sports tend to make men look like primitive apes, spending so much energy money and time on something that is like the video you watch before you start working some places (except sports won't do much for most), something that means so very little
