Or satellite. I don't even have an antenna. Truth is, I shut my TV off 2 years ago and haven't really missed it. It seemed that when it was on, all I did was veg out in front of it watching Law & Order reruns, endless episodes of CSI, or else binged on Food Network and HGTV. My house was a wreck. I never went anywhere or did anything interesting. I just watched TV.
When people ask me, did you see X last night, they are rendered speechless when I tell them, I don't have TV. Oh I have A TV, a nice 32" one I bought 5 years ago. I have a DVD player too, because I still like to watch movies. But regular TV? 183 channels and not a fucking thing on far as I'm concerned.
Why can't I just get the shows I want? Fucking companies want me to get a bundle of shit I will never watch, like 32 Home Shopping Networks and CMT. In a perfect world, the only world that could convince me to shell out $40 a month to watch TV, I could put my OWN bundle together. I'd have Discovery, Sci Fi, HGTV, Food Network, USA Network, and National Geographic.
So no you mindless fucks, I didn't see who got kicked off of Idol or who fell on their ass on Dancing with the Stars. I don't care about your stupid soaps and I damn sure do not want to see some girl choke down a fucking cave spider. Maybe instead of hovering by the tube waiting for the next episode of Wife Swap to come on, you should take your fat assed kids outside and go explore the world a little. Go to the lake with your friends and catch some rays. Read a fucking book once in a while.
No one lays on their deathbed and wishes they'd seen more TV.
