I'm boycotting television! - GoFuckYourself.com

pr0 · 11-26-2003, 07:10 PM

Until these anti-drug commercials are off the air. These commercials are disturbing & nothing more than completely idiotic scare tactics.

While watching fox this evening it showed what looked to be a 1 & 1/2 year old little girl walking toward a pool unsupervised with a raft....then a voice came over "Just tell her parents you were inside getting stoned". I'm drawing the line, if the television companies find this to be "ok" with them...then i refuse to ever watch t.v. again. They went far enough already with the kids at the drive through who ran over a little girl on her bike.

The anti-drug counsel see's fit to show children about to die, in a effort to keep kids off drugs...shame on you drug counsel.

If i want to watch the simpsons or futurama for now on i'll just download them commercial free. I refuse to watch the propaganda box anymore.

Throw away your television
Time to make this clean decision
Master waits for it's collision now
It's a repeat of a story told
It's a repeat and it's getting old

Did you ever see that South Park episode with the "future self"? Good episode.. relates directly to what you are talking about

If my TV is on at all, its either on The Simpsons, Family Guy, Futurama, Comedy Central or some movie.. i've seen that drive-thru commercial many times on comedy central

TV rots your brain.

If you got rid of it we would have kids graduating from High school with an actual education.

Instead you can ask anyone of them what were the best re runs of friends and they can tell you. But none of them could tell you the square root of 33

just my

but I dont watch tv unless it is a rented video.

I stopped watching TV years ago.

i hate those anti drug commericals.

why do they target marijuana so much? it is the drug that kills 0 people a year(unless they died from asthma), not addictive, people dont go crazy over it, yet alcohol, coke, cigarettes, herion, esctasy, crystal meth, and about every other drug kills millions of people a year combined?

fuck those anti drug commercials
