I realised last night that I really *have* arrived as a Grumpy Old Man. True a couple of years ago I registerd a site called “Fat Old Gits” which was supposed to let me sound off about ‘stuff’… but that site eventually morphed into this blog and I abandoned the domain so don’t go looking for it 😀
How did I reach this epiphany? By watching the damn television of course. Since I abandoned all other online activities except for my four main sites, I’ve taken to watching satellite telly now and then… well ok whenever I can. Trouble is… while I have 200 channels to choose from they are almost all unmitigated pap or crap. Thank god for radio… especially Classic FM!!
Anyway… last night I sat through something… lord knows what because it didn’t even impact on my short term memory long enough to register… however I *do* recall muttering about it continually through the program itself and of course through the adverts.
I rambled on about the lighting, the content, the expressions on the actors faces… you name it and I found fault with it.
And of course it is *all* them… nothing wrong with *me* of course… D:
Having said that I really enjoyed watching Helen Mirren as Elizabeth I the other night so I’m totally lost to the dark side… yet!
