bragging about your big brain by pointing out that you watch a lot of history channel is like calling yourself a music historian because you own all the jock jams on vinyl
Nothing to do with the OP, just wanted to let you know that as a former bartender and eternal nerd, I count you my enemy forevermore for coming up with such a fucking powerful handle before I could.
Has he watched the history channel in 20 years. It’s now like “ice road truckers” and “Alaska gold” and 15 years ago was all wwii all the time (the hitler channel)
Is it more embarrassing if he just doesn't know that "History Channel" is just reality TV now, or if he does actually watch History Channel and still thinks it's educational just because that's what the name of the channel is?
I have a theory that every cable channel named for a type of content eventually denies itself. History Channel? No history. The Learning Channel? No learning. Music Television? No music.
well at least TLC and MTV changed their name and tropped the meaning behind it history was worse. It dropped "The" and "channel" its just "History" now.
Whether it was intentional or not, I read it as a backhanded compliment, as in, “His range may be described as a cyber truck: limited, without strength, and only enjoyed by white men who are high.”
More years ago than I care to admit, it was...okay, I suppose? There's only so much you can do putting the Punic Wars or whatever into a 30 minute show, and it probably did okay within those limits.
This century it's been a pathetic joke, though.
So he tries to find something that interests him for an hour, only to close after three minutes, disgustedly staring into the empty eyes of the pitiful face in the reflection of the now blank screen?
