It's not taking anything away from me being informed or caring about anything. Football is fun to watch, and can create a TEMPORARY distraction. Anything, can be fine to watch... in moderation. As long as you're not so obsessed with something, that you forget about everything else going on. Reality TV, I find to be garbage... because most of it, isn't "real" at all. But, even reality TV would be ok in small doses, depending on what we're talking about. The shows where they build houses for people, and actual help people in some manner... I'm ok with those shows. The shows like the Kardashians and things along those lines... yeah, those could be shit canned and I'd be just fine with that. But, it's not the programming that's bad... it's the people who choose to be so wrapped up in them...that they don't care about anything else. I watch plenty of TV shows, and they don't distract from me caring, or knowing, about what is going on in the world. "A person is smart. People are dumb, panicky dangerous animals and you know it.

Which is worse to enjoy? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 16969313 OP do you really sit around and depress yourself 24/7? You think about "critical issues" 24/7? Even while you eat and sleep? REALLY? No entertainment AT ALL?!!! Why should either be bad if they entertain? Constant doom is NOT required and in fact leads to sloppiness and the need to feel more important than everybody that doesn't do what you do or think. It can lead to what is called ARROGANCE or a HITLER like attitude (both conditions you seem to have). Get out and do something entertaining you don't like football then go for a walk because if whether or not reality TV or football is bad and for you the debate of said is critical then you need more entertainment! |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 22439663 United States 09/16/2012 03:17 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | To tell you the truth, reality t.v. has inspired me to do more than glp ever has. Football gives me the "underdog can win" motivation. Plus a lot of the players donate their time and money to good causes. GLP has a lot of doom, and finger pointing. (I try to stick to the spiritual stuff.) Does that mean I think it's terrible, or a distraction, no. I like a little of all of it. Obsession is bad, no matter what it is. Entertainment does have a value, we all need a break at times. What are some of the things that you do to make this world a better place, because you aren't wasting your time watching reality t.v. or football? |
