Why am I always watching tv? r other people like me?

Question

I am always on the tv almost 24 7 and if i went off ill be on the net!

am i weird?

Answer 1

You have no life so you resort to the TV and Computer for things to do and  you are probably fat right??

Answer 2

You are obviously young and don't have much in your life to keep you busy. I guess thats only bad if you are worried about all the living you are missing while stuck on the couch.

Answer 3

No, you're just like me. We love the cyber planet.

Answer 4

Nooo your not weird.

Watching TV is addictive. So is the internet !

Your not weird at all , I tend to do the same at times. :]

Lets blame ... Television !

Answer 5

No you're not weird. Plus it's summer, if you're out of school and without a full time job then I guess TV works well to help pass the time.

Answer 6

Unfortunately it isn't weird these days. Especially for teenagers. You should find something constructive and useful to do.

Answer 7

Your not weird trust me. I know a lot of people that have that same issue. I am almost always on an electronic system.  

Answer 8

Maybe because you don't have anything better/more important to do... (?!?!)

No offense, but you really need to get a life and engage yourself in activities that will keep you away from your TV for some time. Go out with friends, read a book, bake a cake, or take a walk…

Anyway, you're not weird. Many people are like you…

Good luck in getting over your addiction.

Answer 9

i'm just like you, but only because it's the summer holidays and i'm borrreeeeddd! When i get back to school i've got A levels to focus on, so i won't be able to watch as much tv/surf the net :-(

Answer 10

Brain=Mush

Answer 11

It maybe an addiction, or it just maybe that you have nothing better to do than watch tv. Try to go out more with friends and stuff, read, and just try to stay away from it. If it causes you actual physical pain to be away from watching it, you may have an addictions, and then you'd either need to get help or try to find a really good distracting hobby out of the house.

Answer 12

you find every kind of people in the world, some of them dont even watch tv, they just eat all day, So be happy atleast you have something to do :)

Answer 13

sick. it will damage your brain. i threw mine away 10 years ago and haven't regretted it. web is different- you can find reliable information there but you need a grounded education to discriminate between good and bad info and TV isn't going to do the business I'm afraid...

Answer 14

I believe you watch television because you enjoy it and it’s a lot safer then going outside getting in trouble. T.V. calms people down or it can hype people up as you know. I really don’t watch T.V. as much anymore because I don’t have time. If I get the change then I’ll take it. There are plenty of people like you, I have a few family members that do absolutely nothing but watch T.V. and can’t get any sleep without the T.V. being on all night long so you’re not alone trust me. You should try You Tube though, if your thinking about watching T.V. on the computer. It’s a lot better then your standard T.V. you can control what you watch...I hope this help a bit. keep watching T.V. there is no shame in it! =)

Answer 15

i'm exactly like you if I don't surf the net for 1 week or don't watch tv for 1week I will die i dont know why but everyone has got a hobby right ?

Answer 16

Same here pretty much!

Answer 17

cos your a couch potato. but its prolly cos you aint got nothing to do. im the same for the next few weeks. il just be going out 2-3 days a week. then for the rest of the weeks ill jst be on my computer or watchin TV

Answer 18

i love the computer  but am not on-line other than in here.Answering a few questions and checking my mail. The computer is for me to do Design work and other than that i love to be outside and doing something other than sitting around.  People need to get active and work out their mind and AIR out your body it would make you feel good even just taking a walk for 1/2 hour every day would feel better than watching tv. There is a reason it is called a boob tube and couch potato's. BUT YES you are doing what most people are turning to and it is not that healthy. So GO and ENJOY the 3D world and you will have more energy and think more clearly   :)

Answer 19

SAME PINCH! I AM SO LIKE U! I LUV MOVIES 2.

Answer 20

No, you're not weird, but you do need to find something that involves physical activity and something away from focusing your eyes, because:

1. It's bad for your health physically

2. It's bad for your health visually (focusing your eyes way too much can lead to bad vision and possibly blindness)

3. It's just plain bad!

So, go ahead and watch tv and go on the internet, but do it moderately.

Answer 21

no,,,TV and net are informative media. nothing wrong in it. But getting addicted to it neglecting your studies or work is wrong, which i am sure you wont do. The moment you yourself feel you r not in the right track i think you are an intelligent girl and knows what is best for you.

Answer 22

It is very easy to watch tv constantly but try to do other things like join a gym, re-decorate your room, go swimming, meet some people or something, i watch tv way less than i used to and i like it better!!!
