Does anyone still use a tv? What do you use it for?
As we’ve built up a plethora of small screens in the house, we almost never use the big screen anymore. I wonder if this is going the way of landlines, and cable - a huge expense that is no longer relevant.
With all the choices of media and activities, it’s not like we have a family activity of sitting to watch whatever dreck, on the broadcasters schedule. We’ll still probably be in the same room relaxing at the same time, but the kids will be gaming, the wife will be cackling at Instagram, and I’ll probably be doomscrolling. We all have screens that are more suited than the big screen, and the big screen would just interfere with someone else’s enjoyment
I suppose we did watch the Super Bowl together, but that may be it for the last few years. Is a big tv worthwhile for one event? Even when I’m home alone and want to watch something, I have a better suited small screen (heck, that bedroom tv hasn’t been turned on in years)
This is absurd. Not because of your personal preferences but because you are so naive and narrow minded as to be incapable of imagining another viewpoint. This thinking is why the world is falling apart.
Wow, narrow minded because I asked for other viewpoints? Narrow minded because I wondered if it there’s a trend or if it’s just me? Maybe you should revisit your definitions
