Why Aren't You Watching TV...?

Yesterday, my mum came into my room while I was gaming in the dark and asked me some very interesting things.

"Zong Hao, why are you always locking yourself up in the room? You don't even go to the living room at all. Why don't you wanna watch TV?"

Amazing. I've always heard parents complaining that they have to peel their kids from the sofa because their kids' eyes are glued to the TV screen, but now a mother is asking her son to watch TV? I haven't really sat down and watched TV for months, maybe even years. I can't remember the last time I watched TV because I wanted to watch TV. I always turn the TV on only because the house is too quiet, or when Jen and I are eating in the living room. I can't even remember when's the last time I watched TV with my family.

I prefer my computer. I don't see why I've gotta watch TV when I can watch better stuffs on my computer. I've got animations, TV series like Weeds and Joey, movies like Final Fantasy Advent Children and many more, not to mention my stash of porn, so why leave my computer? The things shown on the TV nowadays are boring. Drama serials on Channel 8 are all alike, while those on Channel 5 are too slow and boring to me. Reality TV? That's was nice when they first started, but it's all crap now. How many apprentices does Donald Trump need? What does he wanna do? Gather an army of apprentices and start a war against The Republic?

I'll watch this if it really happened...

And as for Survivor, how many do they actually need? It's not really surviving in the wild. It's really just plain bitching and back-stabbing. It's been over 10 series already (correct me if I'm wrong), and they are still churning that crap out. Does anyone still watch that? I know I'm not, unless they come up with interesting and crazy ideas, like Survivor: Homolulu, where fat homosexuals are thrown onto Mikadonaly, a dick-shaped island off Honolulu and they try to survive there. How's that for a change?

Survivor: Homolulu. Coming soon on TV...

Seriously, TV nowadays really disappoints me. There's really nothing on TV that attracts me anymore. If watching hardcore porn is starting to lose its entertainment value, I don't see how TV can act as a substitute to that. It's true sometimes they throw in some cute and sexy babes to attract teenagers like me, but still... I don't know how to put it... Maybe the pace of the shows are too slow, or maybe the plot sucks. It just isn't attracting enough...

Very tempting... But still...

Don't get me wrong, I'm no homo. I'm not saying I'd love some gay action on TV, neither am I saying Mischa isn't pretty, it's just that the quality of TV shows are going downhill in my opinion. So mum, it's not that I don't wanna leave my room to watch TV, it's just that I have no reasons to do so.

End...
