TV: Greater Than or Equal to the Internet?
This post started off as a comment on Austin 5000's last entry into the blogosphere, but I thought it wouldn’t get the attention that it deserves sitting in the seldom viewed comments section.
Austin 5000, Robot, and to all of the other “intellectuals” out there, I have a suggestion for you. Get a fucking TV!!!
It fair to assume that because you don’t own a TV, some of the time that you would have spent watching TV you instead spend surfing the web. This brings me to my thesis statement, that TV poisons the mind much less than does the internet. What you think you are doing by being a non-conformist and not owning a television is actually hurting you, you poor, poor soul.
Here's Why:
1. TV has a code of standards and practices. Now even though I don't agree with how strict the FCC is, it does prevent
A. As much bullshit being posted as new when its not the least bit true.
B. Pictures of Iraqi's getting their heads blown off
C. Sick and disturbing porn (which I like)
D. White Supremacism (which I like... sorry sheriff)
E. Any other turds that aren't healthy for one to commonly see
2. TV creates a sense of community with the people in a room. When was the last time a bunch of your friends gathered around a computer to read and cheer along to CNN.com.
3. TV is more entertaining. You don’t own a TV but you see lots of movies? Quite hypocritical...
4. You can eat and watch TV at the same time. It's hard to do that on the internet.
5. Why think about what to do on a website when TV can do the thinking for you?
Oh shit, gg, Jackass is on... (I should really buy a Tivo)

In mother country, papushka sold five front teeth to buy the T.V. Now he lives in hole in backyard, which is where we put him after the communism was destroyed by internet. New papushka, we got on ebay.
As per #2, it was just tonight that Robot, the Sheriff, and Austi5000 gathered around the internerd in order to laugh our asses off. Go to video.google.com and search for Leeroy Jenkins. Jackass ain't got nothing on this type of 'inter'tainment. LEEROY JENKINS!!!
I very much like the idea of "internerd" by the way.
I think you need those Devout Shoulders. You're a Paladin, right?
Yea, I'd need them if I were still at level 43, douche! God, that would be like if we were playing Star Craft and you'd be like "hey let's build some zerglings, you need those right?" and I'd allready have like fucking sweet hydralisks and some lurkers. Similar comparisons work with Protoss
