No it doesnt hurt anyone. But it does waste HOURS of your day, EVERYDAY. We usually just have it on for background noise, but you wouldnt believe how peacefull is it now that its off, i think im gonna keep it off alot more often.
PLUS, i dont know about you, but ive seen ALMOST EVERYTHING on there like a million times, and reality TV is a fucking joke. I mean if you want to sit there and turn of your mind for fucking hours, go ahead, like you said your not hurting anyone, I just happen to have alot of other things i NEED to get done, and doing this is helping me, now if i can make a political point at the same time, id much rather be doing THAT than watching another King of the Hill/Siefield/Dharma and Greg/Other sitcom BULLSHIT, thats a FUCKING RERUN anyway...:rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

NO POINT TO TV TURNOFF WEEK!!? You obviouslly show your ignorance with a statment like that. For your information TV channels make money by selling air time to commericals, and how do they decide what to charge, based on how many viewers a certain show has. So more popular shows therefor are more expensive to buy air time in the middle of. SO in TV Turnoff week you are therefor cutting revenue from the TV channels. Why is this important or significant you ask? Just some information for you, on average by the time a person reaches 18 years old, they are estimated to have scanned over 8 million ads. That alone makes me want to turn off what Corporate america thinks I should spend my hard earned money on, I get a little sick and tired of in the middle of my quality show getting blasted by people telling me to buy their shit. So not only does this solve that problem, but it also hurts the profit margine of the Major Media Corperations (abc,cbs,nbc) and why is this good, because the big three MMC's lobby congress to makes laws in their favor that then give tax breaks and corporate walfare to who you may ask, well take a guess, the MMC's. So not only does Tv turnoff week save your from being a direct statistic of corporate america itself, but also hurts their ability to pass their own laws and control the american citizen. Finnaly Tv turnoffweek is important because Television turns you into a zombie, turn if off for a day and see how much more time you have when its not divided into 2 30 minute segments, see what you can get done, heaven forbid an american citizen get off the couch and perhaps *gasp* EXERCISE, if american's cared for their chelesterol level as much as they care about the local gas prices we would all be a little healthier.
So next time you want to comment about how something IS or ISN'T inherently evil, you may want to get your facts straight little girl.

ARTHUR:Well, I can't just call you 'Man'. DENNIS:Well, you could say 'Dennis'. ARTHUR:Well, I didn't know you were called 'Dennis'. DENNIS:Well, you didn't bother to find out, did you? ARTHUR:I did say 'sorry' about the 'old woman', but from the behind you looked-- DENNIS:What I object to is that you automatically treat me like an inferior! ARTHUR:Well, I am King! DENNIS:Oh, King, eh, very nice. And how d'you get that, eh? By exploiting the workers! By 'anging on to outdated imperialist dogma which perpetuates the economic and social differences in our society. If there's ever going to be any progress with the-- WOMAN: Dennis, there's some lovely filth down here. Oh! How d'you do? ARTHUR:How do you do, good lady? I am Arthur, King of the Britons. Who's castle is that? WOMAN:King of the who? ARTHUR:The Britons. WOMAN:Who are the Britons? ARTHUR:Well, we all are. We are all Britons, and I am your king. WOMAN:I didn't know we had a king. I thought we were an autonomous collective. DENNIS:You're fooling yourself. We're living in a dictatorship: a self-perpetuating autocracy in which the working classes-- WOMAN:Oh, there you go bringing class into it again. DENNIS:That's what it's all about. If only people would hear of-- ARTHUR:Please! Please, good people. I am in haste. Who lives in that castle? WOMAN:No one lives there. ARTHUR:Then who is your lord? WOMAN:We don't have a lord. ARTHUR:What? DENNIS:I told you. We're an anarcho-syndicalist commune. We take it in turns to act as a sort of executive officer for the week,... ARTHUR:Yes. DENNIS:...but all the decisions of that officer have to be ratified at a special bi-weekly meeting... ARTHUR:Yes, I see. DENNIS:...by a simple majority in the case of purely internal affairs,... ARTHUR:Be quiet! DENNIS:...but by a two-thirds majority in the case of more major-- ARTHUR:Be quiet! I order you to be quiet! WOMAN:Order, eh? Who does he think he is? Heh. ARTHUR:I am your king! WOMAN:Well, I didn't vote for you. ARTHUR:You don't vote for kings. WOMAN:Well, how did you become King, then? ARTHUR:The Lady of the Lake,... [angels sing] ...her arm clad in the purest shimmering samite, held aloft Excalibur from the bosom of the water signifying by Divine Providence that I, Arthur, was to carry Excalibur. [singing stops] That is why I am your king! DENNIS:Listen. Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony. ARTHUR:Be quiet! DENNIS:Well, but you can't expect to wield supreme executive power just 'cause some watery tart threw a sword at you! ARTHUR:Shut up! DENNIS:I mean, if I went 'round saying I was an emperor just because some moistened bint had lobbed a scimitar at me, they'd put me away! ARTHUR:Shut up, will you? Shut up! DENNIS:Ah, now we see the violence inherent in the system. ARTHUR:Shut up! DENNIS:Oh! Come and see the violence inherent in the system! Help! Help! I'm being repressed! ARTHUR:Bloody peasant! DENNIS:Oh, what a give-away. Did you hear that? Did you hear that, eh? That's what I'm on about. Did you see him repressing me? You saw it, didn't you? Last edited by Unit 03; 04-19-2004 at 10:00 PM.
