But it's for SCIENCE!
Feb. 22nd, 2008 11:19 amI love the Discovery Channel. I can watch at almost any hour of the day and be happy. When my rational, responsible side starts making noises about adult things like "going to bed" or "doing the dishes", my irrepressible, geeky side can answer, "but look! SCIENCE!"
"You just want to watch them blow things up/shoot things/fall through awnings."
"No! We need to know these things! Remember that show we did where we had to deal with gunpowder? Also, we're finding out about cool sites around town."
"You just want to watch those hot tattooed guys get the crap beat out of them."
"No! Don't we want to learn a martial art? These guys are showing all kinds! We can get a better idea of what we want to learn!"
"Zambonis?? WTF?"
"It's a major part of our cultural heritage! How many hours have we spent at hockey games, eh??"
So, you see, I am occasionally a couch potato, but I am a couch potato for SCIENCE.
