Tube Or Screen?
("television_vs_youtube_american_tv_habits_can_t_be_beat_but_google_is_trying")

Nothing left to life but a pair of glassy eyes:
Generally, the older you get in America, the more television sucks you in. The average senior citizen spends more than two full days of every week in front of the TV.
Lame San Francisco comedy music break, live from The Greekcensored by those YouTube fuckers
& so replaced:
... TV? Whatever else has happened in American life, TV just kept doing better. If you look at a chart of household TV viewing from 1950 to 2009, it’s a straight upward arrow. In the last couple years, live TV-viewing has begun to dip just slightly, but the decline has been offset by a rise in time-shifted viewing. Overall, despite every technology that has come along to usurp or disrupt it, we watch about as much TV in 2013 as we’ve ever watched.
"Web logs" our ass, still at the glassflat plastic teat. Good luck to Google getting people to watch rebuffering & other playback problems on a screen one fourth the size of the tube tee vee sets of the '90s while there's a 50ish-inch screen attracting dust in the living/media room. Not even Americans are silly enough to fall for ... uh, well ... also, don't hold the breath waiting for three-dimensional telebision. Apparently not enough demand for three-dimensional pornography either, & w/o sports or smut you can kiss 3-D in your living room good-bye.

And we say good-bye w/ an East Coast comedy music palate cleanser:
