you only think you're funny, god

Plugged the TV back in (I unplugged it before I left town, because I read somewhere they can explode or you get ants or something DON'T QUESTION ME), removed the old...um...box thing that let the cable box and the DVDs and the TV all talk to each other, and finally got around to actually connecting the new antenna. Ran the program thing where the TV searches for channels and adds them in.

I can get one channel now.

It's FOX.

Watched 2 minutes of The X Factor, then put in A Hard Day's Night because I hate punching myself in the face.

See, we need to take an attitude like my husband: when we go on car trips, as soon as we're over the pass, out of the reach of civilization, he's poking at radio buttons, going, "I'm searching for fascist radio!" And then all the way to Portland or Sand Point, or whatever, there's a continuing dialog with whatever madman is foaming about satan and/or immigrants and/or Hillary all over the airwaves.

When we toured Alaska a couple years ago, EVERY hotel TV everywhere we stayed was tuned to Fox News.

My local comics shop blasts some sports show with a guy who screams in contempt like Rush O'Reilly. In fact, it took several attempts at listening to figure out he was talking about sports. It's one of the reasons I don't buy comics anymore.
