Drabble by Kevin Fagan for November 30, 2016

… especially after this election cycle.

Off is the best channel.

Even when watching a show I usually like, I turn it off when there are too many annoying commercials. Have found 16 or more commercials in a row when watching a recorded show. Sometimes there are multiple repeats in the same stream.

There was a time, in a galaxy far, far away that one could watch the TV for HOURS and NOT hear a curse word. Some say we have progressed from the oppressive censors……I say I think we went backwards. They forgot that the TV influences society. What a shame. So yes, off is the best channel. Never thought I’d see the day. Oh well.

One of the reasons I’m a cable cutter.

Funny, Patrick hasn’t grown in years!

In that case, I know some people that have never grown up.

Thank God for closed captions.

Using the fast-forward as a timer, Jeopardy has eight minutes of commercials in the half-hour program, and that is not counting those between shows before and after the show itself. Pre-recording has its advantages.

Must have been watching the debates.

Our TV has been off for almost 20 years. The quiet has been lovely! :o)
