No way I love TV! That's right I said it, it had to be said.

Besides, my TV gets a chance to sleep when I am sleeping and when I am at work. Plus it gets a vacation when I go away on vacation. My TV is a lazy bastard and I don't think it needs another week out of the year to do nothing. It is pampered enough already.

You only love it because it tells you to.

Oh man this is crazy, just the other day my TV was like "Hey man do you love me?" And I said ..."Love is a pretty strong word..." And then my TV said "You better love me or else!" And I was like... "Yes Sir..." And then we started making out. Suffice it to say my TV is a bad kisser, but you get felt up something fierce.

If you unplug it the sexual harassment will cease. Love is a strong word.

Now is this for not watching televison or not using the television device... like to movies or video games count, because I don't watch really any TV anyways, and if it does count movies and such then shouldn't computers not be allowed either

I'd assume it means to not be sucked in by the capitalistic onslaught that is TV advertizing.

I don't know why you'd want to boycott TV, TV is only bad if you let it control you. The people who would actually participate in this boycott are ones who are obviously not controlled by it to begin with. Thus, what's the point?

I can do it.

But tell me to leave the computer, and I laugh in your face.

Yeah fuck tv in its stupid ass. when i watch tv i watch things that are informative and interesting like animal planet, the true crime shows, discovery channel. but mostly i read alot.

Reading is a lost past time that should be brought back there are some great authors out there like Chuck Palahniuk (author of fight club), and other books that are so much fun to read like American Psycho by bret easton ellis, divinci code, The bourne identity series (NOTHING LIKE THE MOVIES AT ALL SO SO SO MUCH BETTER) and yes i cant deny it but the harry potter books fucking rock

i was once like everyone else in making fun of the harry potter craze then my girlfreind talked me into reading one measly book in trade that she would read chuk p and it happened i couldnt stop reading harry potter. the book was so entertaining and addictive. but the movies suck.

if your a fan of lord of the rings. that is also worth reading but the first one kind of sucks and the rest fucking rock. so if you get sick of the first one just skip it. oh and fuck tv

Ted,
you seem to watch TV a lot. Everytime I look at your avatar pic I wonder what gene causes those big eyes. I see that they are very useful when watching at TV, so a week without television may be rough time for you.

i can do it, all the more motivation to play footbag

ebo · Post by **ebo** » 16 Apr 2005 08:23

I hardly ever watch TV anyways. I just cand stand all this consumerism
materialistic bullshit that's being shoved down one's throat. I heard MTV
actually used to play music a couple of years ago.

I'm with the Adbusters here.
