I've yet to see an intelligent argument about how television brainwashes everyone and is propaganda. Perhaps you need to look up the definitions of those terms before using anything so extreme.

Sleepy, your arguing semantics now. My idea behind what I said is that I try really hard to blow off popular items until it is virtually required that I have them (forced to swallow my pride) and used the cellular phone as an example and also gave you a time frame. It doesnt mean i had sleepless night and cold sweats over a freakin leash.
