a wonderful wooden reason
I do think that the medium of television is fairly irredeemably dodgy for a number of reasons more or less regardless of content so I suppose I would recommend avoiding it. It follows that I think not watching TV is superior to watching TV. I'm not saying this to appear groovy, it's just what I think.All I'm objecting to is the self-righteousness that some people exhibit - and which you seem to be close to exhibiting, I have to say - when they announce their non-TV-watching, and hence superior, ways. It's like those fucking awful "I'm not a plastic bag"s, or people who have a sticker on their car proclaiming their green credentials, i.e. a smug way to show off.
The only time I've ever had to make point of this is when living in a shared house and here now.
