You inherited the greatest economic prosperity the world has ever seen. And how did you use it? You did all the drugs in the 60s. You had all the sex in the 70s. You made all the money in the 80s. And you won all the elections in the 90s. And each time, you rolled the carpet up behind you. You’ve coasted for the last

And we still have people over 70 running for office. 

this is why ive made a decision not to have kids. i mean, it’s one of the MANY reasons i have not to have kids. this is scary :( poor nature

Fun video, but I’m not sure genetics, access to good healthcare, exercise, community envolvement and a healthy diet really qualifies as a lifehack. It’s more like, “hey, remember those things your doctor, every health blog, and your 7th through 12th grade health classes kept drilling into you? Yup, turns out they’re

Anyone who says they wouldn’t watch this video if it came out is a damn liar.

Netflix’s top shows are the top shows for the same reason that TBS was surviving for DECADES with reruns of Friends, Seinfeld, Family Guy, and others. People want to watch these shows, especially to kill time. Now they can do it whenever they want, instead of when TBS wants them to.

So Netflix should slow everything down and dole out shows 1 episode at a time to make your job easier?  Ok Grandpa, sure thing.  And we’ll make sure these newfangled horseless carriages never go faster than walking speed so your job shoveling horseshit is protected forever!  

Does Netflix’s interface suck ass? Fuck yes it does. Is there a ton of garbage on it’s servers? Yep. Do I get option fatigue from scrolling through the plethora of shows and movies, resulting in sometimes a whole night of trying to decide what to waste my time on? I sure do.

Can you imagine getting paid to whine about how it’s harder to write about watching TV for a living than it used to be? What a brave new world that has such creatures in it.

You know, I was finding the premise of this article really compelling and found myself nodding my head about how Netflix churns out copycat shows until I got to this:

Hmmm.... wasn’t the monoculture issue more about the big 4 all mimicking each other and foisting that on the public all at once? I’m not going to attempt to defend Netflix here but they seem to have a very broad variety of original content. I do have to look a little harder to find shows that aren’t broadly similar to

I pretty much don’t watch anything on Netflix. I was excited when we first got it, but I barely look at it now. I’ve watched two series - Kimmy Schmidt and Aggretsuko, and I haven’t even watched the last season of Kimmy because a.) I forgot it was coming out and b.) I haven’t bothered.

I’ve read this twice and I’m still not entirely sure what the point of this rant is. That people prefer comfort food over new stuff? Well, sure. That’s been the case since TV began. (And I’ll always have a Law & Order on when I’m doing chores.) Netflix wants people to stay home and watch Netflix? Well, duh. It’s hard

Somebody give this kid a beer and a bulk pack of D-cell batteries, he’s ready.

The kid just signed an exclusive deal with FS1's “All Takes Matter” and is already schooling Whitlock in debates.

Bitter because they claim you all do a shitty job of separating your advertising from your editorial?

Hold on...this is a blog post about a Canadian apologizing?

Turning the phone off doesn’t stop casting whatever you were casting to the Chromecast. Yes, you wouldn’t be able to control it anymore if you wanted to pause, but it doesn’t just stop. The phone is the control, once you cast something, as long as it isn’t stored on the phone, the Chromecast goes through your internet
