Poll question: Who yells at the TV?
Advertisements [?]
I just noticed another thread about it. Now, I yell at the TV plenty, just like everyone else in my family does. If the Red Sox are on, I'll give 'em praise and condemnation when they deserve it. When anybody's talking politics, I yell at them. I yell at the weatherman when he makes a stupid mistake. I think a lot of people just talk at the TV. It's pretty much like talking to yourself or thinking out loud.

However, my suitemate here at the dorm thinks it's the weirdest thing he's ever seen. He can't imagine that anyone would talk at the TV. He's always telling me "they can't hear you". That doesn't matter! It's a nice release, I think. I do not know why he's so dumbfounded. He acts like I've got a screw loose every time he sees it, and I think he's genuinely freaked out about it. Why?

I'm tired of his attitude toward my attitude toward those people on TV (whoever they may be). Am I the only one who talks at the TV?
