So, I really hate watching TV with my father-in-law. He's a hibitual channel surfer. He'll stick on one channel just long enough for me to get interested in what's on, and then change.
Here was this morning with him. The things I have in quotes are what I was thinking...
potthole: "Oh, cool, Mythbusters!"
*Watches for two minutes. FIL changes channel, show isn't even in commercial.*
potthole: "Uh, ok... Vegas Vacation, been awhile since I've seen this, not bad."
*Watches for five minutes. FIL changes channel.*
potthole: "History Channel now? Humm, a show on the czars, looks interesting..."
*Watches for 45 seconds. FIL changes channel.*
potthole: "Food Network. This is dumb."
*Watches for ten minutes, show goes into commercial. FIL watches two commercials, changes channel.*
potthole: "Back to Mythbusters, sweet! Oh, wait, they're wrapping up the last experiment of the show. Oh, there are the credits."
*Potthole gets up and leaves the room to go grab a book to read*
