I have friends who on a regular basis ask me if I've seen such and such episode of such and such show, or--Allah help me--such and such commercial.<br /><br />My response is always some variation of humorous snark.<br /><br />Their response: What? Oh. Oh yeah. Forgot.<br /><br />The following week we will have this same conversation. And the week after that. And the one after that. And so on and so forth.<br /><br />I'm convinced they have developed some sort of television-induced, selective amnesia. It would be funny if it weren't so disturbing.<br /><br />Now, whenever I think of television I think of Plato's Cave.Nathanielnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24860222.post-33542201859118872672010-07-27T19:36:30.925+01:002010-07-27T19:36:30.925+01:00I hear you.I hear you.Tired Dadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01463536844672270826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24860222.post-32122318187978048652010-07-26T20:30:41.401+01:002010-07-26T20:30:41.401+01:00I do not own a functional television.
