Ahhh, so I wasnt even close.

Well, why did you turn it only 3 times in 5 months? Do you dislike watching TV?

- It's hard to remember to turn it on for specific programs
- We haven't had a lot of spare time
- The Food Network is the only worthwhile channel
- The commercials drive us crazy
- We typically just put on DVDs or stream programs if we want to watch something specifc
- 99% of what is playing is of no interest to us

As soon as our package deal runs out, we'll just drop television altogether in order to save on our bill.

Ahhh, okey I understand. Pretty good reasons actually. I also only watch TV for specific programs. Theres this thing called VOD(I have no idea what its called in other countries though) that allows you to watch programs immediately from a menu of programs. Its short for Video On Demand if Im not mistaken. So basically I only go to that service when watching TV. That and to watch the News as well.

Also, can you do me a small favor? I want you to add the option Never to my poll because I think some people would want to vote for that. So do that for me please okey honey?

On the condition that you never refer to me as "honey" again.

Whiskey is a brilliant troll man.

And I voted "very often" without reading a post on here... Having done so I would probably move it down to "occasionally" as I was considering online streaming of TV Shows in my initial thought process.

I probably spend around two/three hours a day on average directly watching TV. So whatever group that puts me in. (which would have been a better poll)

Hope not, unless it's a gay marriage! Ped is female... :laughing:

As for me, I watch TV every day pretty much, but I use the Sky Plus system so just record everything I want to watch and then play it back later. As a lot of my time is spent on my journal I tend to only allocate a few hours a day for telly, though I usually watch it while eating (breakfast, dinner etc) and maybe for an hour or so before bed. There are days (few) when I'd sit for hours in front of the box but usually only if I wanted to catch up on some programmes I had been missing or if I was tired/sick.

I generally don't do telly through the PC mostly because where my desktop is located it would mean I'd have to sit in my computer chair at the desk to properly see the tv, whereas my set is at the foot of my bed, so I can just lie on the bed and relax and watch it. When my old telly blew and I had to get a new one, and messed up putting the stand together, necessitating having to return it and go without TV for about a week, I did use the PC but it was awkward trying to balance my dinner on my lap and watch sort of at an angle: not comfortable.

I might be gay. You never know.

Sure no problem. Though I usually call girls Honey so they get angry and then they become even more beautiful. Actually I did that to a girl in my class a while back. She was throwing things and hitting me with her tiny hands until I told her she's so beautiful when she's angry and then she stopped. Actually after that moment I never heard from her again. Weird, I never understood what I did wrong. Oh well, there's enough from me for all the girls in the world anyway.
