I really feel left out. Like an outsider here in the lounge. I'm pretty much used to it, I guess.

I don't watch TV programs that I don't like.

I kinda wish I did.

Then I could espouse eloquently about déclassé stuff and crap.

1. If it were not for network and cable news...
and maybe the Weather Channel...I doubt that I would watch any TV at all (Oh, and the History Channel once in awhile also).

9. There's something even worse than that
Never let her get control of the Tivo. I don't think I can take another home improvement show! The machine is completely cluttered with that stuff.

13. My dear Ptah!
You will NEVER be an outsider in my book!

I watch very little TV too...I always feel left out when folks talk about this show or that...

Fuck 'em, I say!

14. Outside of sports, I only watch two shows: Heroes and FlashForward.
Why waste time watching junk you don't like? Spend more time reading the classics, listening to jazz, or looking at porn. :)

20. It's okay. You get the rebel factor.
You get to lean up against the wall and smoke a cigarette. And everyone else will wonder, "Who is that mysterious Ptah? He's aloof, but cool. I bet he has a hidden story"
