I don’t always have the cleanest mouth, shame on me, but gratuitous language in films/TV just turns me off. Same with nudity and sex. Grossly graphic and frequently sadistic violence is the biggest turnoff of all for me. A coworker showed me a few scenes from Game of Thrones and the horrible graphic violence is to me simply unneccesary — I’m no shrinking violet and I’m fine with some violence as necessary to the plot, but uber-realistic portrayals of shrieking burning and skinning and disembowelment kind of discourage me.

I hate it too.

We’re smart enough to figure it out if they give us a hint or two like two people go home together and then the camera pans to a sunrise breakfast for two.

I gave up on teevee because too many shows are kind of degenerate or have an SJW undertone or mock God or whatever.

No thanks.
