There it is. 7 1/2 hours of TV a day. We were not outside. We were not in third places. We were not socially well-adjusted and mentally healthy. We were isolated and slumped on the couch watching our best friend--the TV. Gen X, my friends!

I often see people fantasize of pre-internet days where everyone was super social and living grand lives outdoors. I hate to tell you that's just the movie version--we were mostly sitting alone inside watching not-good TV for hours on end. Like... 7 hours of TV a day. Maybe more.
