63. We only use the TV for watching DVDs
and playing platform games, although we haven't done that in forever and have been playing computer games instead. There haven't been any good platform games in forever.

Anyway, sometimes we'll go out to eat at a place that has a TV and it's so jarring and annoying. And really really really really really stupid.

Most forms of entertainment seem to have entered a death spiral in the last decade. It's like they've gone way down below the lowest common denominator. No dears, your music and game and movie sales are not going down because of net piracy. Yeah, some of it is people not having as much disposable income, but a big part of it is that your music and games and movies suck ass.

From the advertising and the soul and mind destroying dreck that is being advertised, it's like they think of us as mindless drooling cows. Or sheep - take your pick of animals known for herding and timidity.
