If it wasn’t for my wife and son I would have cancelled it years ago.


I personally cannot stand TV and when it does go on I just leave the room. The family is used to my “anti-social” tendencies by now. I just wish they could walk away from the damn thing too.

On the other hand charging someone for wanting to skip the commercials. Hmmmm that kind of sounds like a TAX on cigarettes and see what happened there less and less people smoke or can afford to do so. So maybe they can make TV watching so expensive that people give it up and discover the wide outdoors and that there really are people called neighbors.

I generally do the same thing, I just leave the room. I do have exceptions for Family Guy, Alcatraz and the Walking Dead. Other than that I wouldn’t miss it all.

You are a better man than I.

Sure I leave the room, but leave behind a bitter string of profanities and sharp, acid commentary, at what I just was subjected to from the PervertHomoCommieBox, upsetting the whole family.

Family conseling might be in our future. LOL.
