bad television is my weakness. people accuse me of being a music and movie snob. when it comes to tv, however, i am completely indulgent. the other day i realized i was watching the lizzie maguire movie. that realization did not make me change the channel. i think that at a certain point in my life i will throw out my television for this reason.
