The off topic thread #2

[WealstoneRaider]

...the ignorance. It kills me.

You're on a ******* forum where all the people you are currently accusing of having nothing in their lives but TV to discuss ******* DISCUSS FOOTBALL ON A DAILY BASIS.

You can actually have a far more informed time on a message board (where you are free to discuss and engage your brain on a multitude of subjects) than you are by sitting in front of the TV being dictated to by the latest mindless vampire, zombie or whatever the ****ing drivel it is you watch. TV is something designed to make a few campaigners rich and keep you from actually exploring and working out what is really important in life and developing as a functioning human being. It's actually used as a controlling device, to brainwash and manipulate you also.

Of course I'm being extreme, a little TV is fine. But this obsession has to end

Zzzzzzzzzz

I knew when I saw this comment that there'd be another couple of pages of debate/shit posting to follow when I next checked back. Can you please stop derailing threads by descending into the same old trivial arguments every time you need a little human interaction?

 

[WealstoneRaider]

No funnily enough. What did I miss

Because watching over-paid men kick a piece of leather around is philosophically charged and involves a deep understanding of the evolution of man.

I feel my time spent watching the walking dead is filling me with helpful information about taking out walkers and then watching out for the more dangerous peril out there. Humans.

Class is great, enjoying it far more than I thought I would, but I am looking forward to Doctor Who starting again. What a brilliant show.

Just going to ignore this one WealstoneRaider ?

Does your Mrs watch Bake Off and Strictly?

This programme you were saying was on channel 4? Might actually be something worth watching. Do you know the name if it?

We are all allowed a guilty pleasure. Mine is football and Big Brother

 

[Loonerty]

Mine is football and Big Brother

Close the thread. We're done.

 

[SM]

WOAH. Hold up.

You like a television show? And not just any TV show, but one of the most trashy about?

Next thing you'll say you used to love Jerry Springer.

Thankfully not. I'll let you know the name of the show tomoz.

 

[WealstoneRaider]

Celebrity Big Brother. Not the "normal" one. They get some right nutters on the UK one

 

[DemonJim]

Nah he likes Kyle Jeremy... loves watching the chavs!

Oh well that is so much better then.

Daytime show - designed to get all the skivers back at work. Just about the worst thing you can watch. Judge Rinder though, now you're talking

So to clarify, Judge Rinder is another TV show you don't mind watching.

What I'm getting out of this is that trashy UK TV is ok, but watching top-of-the-line produced shows that are huge hits is a no-no.

 

[WealstoneRaider]

It's actually worth watching if you have an interest in human psychology.

There's only so much of it I can watch though

But do I talk about it all the time? No I don't. I'm ever so slightly on the wind-up SM, but I do find this tele infatuation slightly bizarre
