(43,981 posts)Apparently you think my brain is "mush," which (since I assume you don't mean that literally), I take it means you think my intelligence and intellectual capacity has been diminished by my viewing habits. Which is an interesting claim to make for someone who thinks of themselves as being intelligent. My wife and I both have post-graduate degrees. We are both successful attorneys. I'm with a law firm and have, among other things, written briefs in Supreme Court cases and published articles. My wife provides a wide range of legal advice to an environmental non-profit and speaks regularly on environmental issues.
So, I suggest you get down off your high horse. I have no problem with people who choose not to watch TV, or not to go to movies. I have no problem with people who don't like the things I like. Indeed, I find people with different interests to be, well, interesting. Until they cop a superior attitude and tell me that my choices are bad.
