What do you call Wheel of Fortune, Jeopardy and The Price Is Right? .:unsure:
That was episodes from the 1980s, and I loaded them on a flash drive that I stuck in the back of Grandma's tv. I am sitting in a corner of the living room with earbuds, fallout 4 and a stand-up comedian on youtube.

Whomever YouTube turns up. If they start on woke stuff, there are plenty of other stand-up comedy files to go to.
I would recommend her... her quips about being in TN and GA after living in CA are hilarious...

Here is a sample:

Based on what @Gojira said about insurance commercials, I also find those funny.
This one played last night and made me laugh.

Lanolin, this is a 2-part question.
Let's start with the first one.
Don't you ever watch commercials? Where do you live? Are you a nun? Are you in a monastery right now? What kind of internet connection do you have in the monastery and why? :D

Well you see I am answering your question.
Basically I am trying to understand your point of view.
In Lynx case for example I understood that he watches YouTube, not live tv anymore or cable as it’s called in America.
So what platform do you watch that you don’t see any commercials? Or you don’t watch at all?

Okay, so you don't watch TV then, correct? This means that you don't watch commercials either, right?

a dim bulb brightens

am glad you figured it out.
All right, thank you.
I understand you now and your surprise about people watching commercials.
Now to answer your second question: Do i work?

Of course not! Nobody in America works. I haven't worked since the Bush administration.
This is why America is number 1 because we don't work.

I figured you guys just sit on couches and drink coffee all day, like on Friends lol
Actually I did watch that in lockdown on Netflix which has no ads.

You do have to pay or piggyback someone elses password to get the channels with no ads. But see I am generation Y which means back in the day, we rented out VIDEOs and if we watched tv, we taped it and fastfwd through the ads (commericials)

Or we went to the toilet or did other things when the ads came on. I dont think any of us ever sat down to watch ads deliberateły! We were not as brainwashed as the young ones today are who cant even tell the difference.
