I certainly watched a lot of crap TV growing up. However entertainment back then was so feeble compared to today's high voltage stuff it didn't really command one's full attention, there was still time for socializing. By contrast, we had two teenage relatives staying last couple of days and they are deeeply engaged with their devices to the point of near hypnotism.

> entertainment back then was so feeble compared to today's high voltage stuff Read that sentence back to yourself in your head and then tell me that doesn't sound ridiculous.

Back before the internet I remember flicking through tv channels being bored because there was nothing on, I have never really felt there was nothing left to do on the internet.
