Cable tv

And I’m sorry I just disagree. A few ads is one thing. Basically half the show is just stupid. I won’t watch that many commercials. I’ll record the show

I agree with a lot of what you said. It’s why I buy my disks. Can’t be deleted.

I am going to disagree with one item. You say you don’t have a tv. The screen you use to display the image is effectively a tv. So in essence you still have one. You just don’t have cable tv or an aerial antenna. You even use the streaming services from time to time.

But otherwise yeah I definitely understand where you are coming from.

But he’s rich so he must know what he’s doing.

Ads weren't bad when it was like a minute with of commercials. Now it can be 7 minutes at a time. The worst was when I was watching Star Trek Voyager, a one hour show was actually 27 minutes of ads. Not a joke. 27 minutes of ads and 33 minutes of show. That was what broke me. I now record everything and watch it later and fast forward through the commercials.

Do you watch any streaming services or do you mean zero tv, no shows, nothing?

I bought a tivo have had a couple through the years. They (spectrum and the tv station) can't control what I fast forward through.

I record everything I watch. Record now and watch later. Then I fast forward through the commercials. If something seems interesting I'll go back and actually watch it.

Idiot deserves at least that much

I have to assume there was some sarcasm in there that I’m missing.

I literally don't know if you made this up or if it's actually from a book.

Either way... Well done

Could be a grift or a graft depending on your viewpoint.

Most of them are a pain in the ass to properly clean. My mom has a ninja air fryer. There is no way to remove the top grate. The grease builds up in it.
