Television is a drug

They say that television rots one’s brain. I believe that is true. If a person were to sit in front of a T.V. for more than a week, eating his or her food on the couch and constantly watching T.V. and not leaving the couch at all, not only will they lose brain cells but also, they’ll lose muscles and other bodily functions. Thus, watching television too much does not only rot your brain but it also rots your body. It may be the person’s fault for watching too much television but television is like an addictive. It’s the person’s fault for picking it up but the drug is equally at fault for even existing. That’s the relationship between the “couch potato” and the television.

That’s not to say that I don’t like television. In fact, I love it. I’m just another television

addict, but due to the strict rules in my household, I’m not allowed to “take my drugs” so to speak, meaning

I’m not allowed to turn into a vegetable by watching hours upon hours of television. And because of my limited time for watching television, I do not have many favorite shows. Probably the only one I had time for watching all the way through was Heroes but it took the whole summer to watch because I could only watch one episode per day. And during the school year, I’m not allowed to watch T. V. at all. *sigh* I guess I’ll have to wait until next summer.
