I'll never understand...

[Cadaverous Pallor]

I'll never understand people that have to have the TV on all the time. I can't stand having TV as background. Either it's something I want to watch and I have to sit and watch it, or it's just so much garbled annoying noise. If I want background, I use music. If I'm listening to the radio, often times the commercials will make me turn it off.

I love silence.

Yes.


I'll never understand why TV reporters on the morning news have to stand outside in the cold and dark at 6 in the morning to report on something that happened in that location the day before in broad daylight. They still end up showing you something filmed earlier when the event actually happened so why can't they do that in the studio? Are they all frustrated foreign correspondent wannabes pretending to be in downtown Baghdad? And don't get me started on TV reporters standing in the rain to tell me it's raining.

Or staning outside saying it's getting ready to rain. Or calling drizzle a downpour or a storm. "STORM WATCH 2004... we're expecting some drizzle and possible light showers today..." Yea. That's NOT a storm, not even by CA standards.
