I gave up having a TV like a decade ago.

The last time I visited my parents, they would go off and do stuff during the day and there was literally nothing else to do, so I'd turn on their TV.

Holy shit, when did every commercial turn into debt harassment, insurance or we'll-help-you-sue ads?

Know what's awesome? Sitting at home for four weeks straight as you're recovering from a standard procedure operation, only to see malpractice commercial after malpractice commercial involving said procedure. It's enough to turn the most resolved person into a hypochondriac.

No kidding.
