Monk, Psych, and Frasier because they’re mildly amusing and inoffensive. They’re basically comfort food TV shows that I put on while I do other things.

Archer because it’s smart and fucking hilarious.

What a terrible, wasteful idea. Cracking hydrogen out of water at home will waste so much electricity that you may as well just drive a damned car.

Idiotic propaganda probably paid for by the fossil fuel industry

With a nice chianti?

You kids with your fancy “tapes!” In my day we had to watch whatever the hell was on the three or four channels we could pick up with the rabbit ears, and we were damn glad to have it!

Once a year they’d show a Bond movie or Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, or maybe even that Willie Wonka movie. Such an event!

VCRs didn’t exist until I was a young adult. Doggone spoiled kids!

Speaking as someone who worked in drug rehab for a couple of soul-crushing years, forced rehab has a very, very low “success” rate (defined as staying clean for one year). Even for voluntary enrollees, there was only a 24% success rate, but the involuntary DOC diversions were well under 10%.
