I've been living without a tele for about a year and half. When I first got rid of it I was sitting in my livingroom staring into space when my hand unconsciously went out to pick up the non existent remote control. I'm past that now and really enjoy the quality time I have with my brain.
Could you live without a tele?
Well... i havent a TV in my home since 2000... but even when i had one i never was much a fan of it...
Yes, as long as I had a computer :thumbsup: :jointsmile:
litterally yes.
Tv is not pertinant to my survival.
I dont watch tv much anyway, as long as i have a computer im fine.
not during football season
^^ hahaha I just thought of that except............not in F1 season and its about to start in a month or 2.
i dont watch tv.
I don't own a TV and never have, although various exes have insisted on the things lol.
I get my baseball fix at the nieghbors' house. Other than that, I'd rather be messing around in the garden than turning what's left of my already inadequate brain to mush! ;)
I would spend far too much time watching shit rather than study. Far to easy so it had to go.Quote:

the white noise (and whatever else is pumped under it) annoy me. So I never turn it on, just get updates on youtube etc.
I haven't had a TV for 2 years! It doesn't bug me at all. I have more space now and I just use my computer for all kinds of media.
I could live with out it apart from durring the football season and world cups.. Tv is usally shit 99.9999% of the time anyway...
As long as I had my computer Im happy...

I live without it, isn't that hard really, altho I do stream videos so really I never left it..............
A what? I don't have one and haven't in years. I've got canncom, a life, and ATHF and Beavis n Butthead on DVD... what more does a girl need?
there so much for to see outside. being high and walking around all day is like being IN the movie.
Nope, have to have something to play my 360 on.
Been living without one for 10 months. Don't have one in my dorm. It's actually quite refreshing.
I hardly watch TV
we listen to music or hubby plays his guitar
Yes, after some thought I reckon I could live without TV, I would only miss the news channels, I am a bit of a news junkie but I could keep up with current events on the PC.

At many time in my life for one reason or another, ive gone without tv. It always surprizes me how i think it cant be done and after a week a forget the tv even exists. does anyone think that tv has actually gotten worse after the writers strike? its like they realized that people still watched when there was nothing new or even entertaining on and they just said fuck it...its cheaper to not make something new and stuck with it. as for me, i have cable right now only cause its only 15 dollars more with my high speed access which i cant live with out. besides i think it gives my girlfriend something to do!
man.. I'm buying a 55'' 1080p LCD... fuck yeah blu ray!!!
I could live without anything except for food drink and air.
I would however miss these things
Something to attach my growing number of games consoles to (I don't get rid of old ones , I still have a Sega megadrive lurking somewhere :D )
The absolute best show on TV ever BBC - Top Gear - Homepage
And last but not least the Formula 1 GP's
I had a heart attack a few years ago and went totally bananas afterwards. I killed all the tvs. It took a while to get used to but let me tell ya life became so much more. I worked hard and played harder. MY wife and kids even began to enjoy the silence.
Its great. Now I just have to limit the net :)
I have not been so successful at that yet.
best thing on TV... well most of the adult swim lineup is freakin awesome... I used to love sea lab 2021 aswell...Quote:
