20. I've been gradually getting my close friends to wean themselves. One only

7. Dunno, unless it's the same thing that makes people gawk at train wrecks.
I can't get to the remote fast enough when Tweety's balloon-head appears on my teevee.

10. I wonder that all the time.
The same type of people who read Drudge, or FoxNews, etc.

They are providing free advertising for these shows and sites.
