When you watch TV, you vegetate. TV is a passive medium, you sit, eyes open mouth open if you are of a lesser stock. You take in all that is thrown at you with only two options change the channel and take a chance that you will something "important"(like the people who were taking a whiz when JR was shot) or you can turn it off.

If you want to see how easy it is then go and get a copy of Counter-Strike, and ill show you just how easy it is, ok? Which brings me to my next point : Competition.
