I agree about television, we’ve never had one in our house (except a furnished sublet we rented for a few months when my husband and I were first married) and never regretted it. Growing up, my parents wouldn’t let us watch any TV at all on school nights and generally limited it otherwise. I’m glad they did that, it forced us to find our entertainment elsewhere and to be more imaginative. Any time I am at a hotel and have access to a TV, there is mostly never anything on worth watching (although I admit I do sometimes enjoy the home renovation and cooking shows). The series are generally vapid and contrived, and the “news” or current events programs are thinly disguised propaganda. Definitely mind-numbing, especially in large doses.

Thank you for the entertaining read, in any case—you definitely have a lot in common with our esteemed host in terms of humor and writing style! 😁
