Your contract with the network when you get the show is you're going to watch the spots.

Am I guilty of theft when I get up to take a piss during commercials or go to the fridge to get a drink?

Am I guilty of grand larceny when I change channels during commericals in an attempt to watch 3, 4, or 5 shows at once?

According to Ted the commie Turner you are! Have you read about the laws that hollyweird are trying to ram through the Congress with the help of Sinator Hollings? It would ruin the computer and hardware market. These jerks want to make it so you can never own any music or movie, just rent it and pay for it each and every time you watch or listen to it, forever!

They're developing a chip that will lock the crapper's seat down and the reefer's door closed during the commercial breaks.

TV show cutting to commercial: "Mom,what do you do when you dont feel...fresh?"

Cardinal4,aiming remote: Click.

There is a reason the remote was invented;to skip over ads for Feminie Hygeine products,ads for 24 hour NBA channels and any spot,ad,commercial with the following people in it; Barabara Streisand,Alec Baldwin,algore,Hillary,Brittany Spears,any rap or R&B artist,WWF,the Lifetime channel,Oxygen............

I watch FOX news (especially if Laurie Dhue is reading the news!)and sports.Commercial TV just sucks anymore.Screw anyone connected with Ted Turner,anyway.

Yes. And not merely state staute but UNIFIED WORLD law. With trial in World Court. If you take a p*ss during a commercial you are a world criminal.

Am I guilty of grand larceny when I change channels during commericals in an attempt to watch 3, 4, or 5 shows at once?

And why do you need 3, 4 or 5 channels? Capitalist pig! Tractor repair and socialist heroes are all you need to be informed about.

They sing and dance about toilet paper, for crying out loud!
