Don’t Donk Away Your Life
Tyler Durden over at the RealSocialDynamics blog wrote a really good article explaining how people are socially conditioned to think things that are bad for us are actually good and enjoyable.
For example, most people enjoy donuts. But there’s not one thing in a donut that makes it worthwhile to put in your body. And things like donuts make for bad news when it decides to come back out.
A lot of people enjoy reality tv. But I wonder how many people stop and think about all of the valuable time they’ve wasted after watching the latest episode of whatever and how that time could have better been used.
I don’t think there’s anything wrong with relaxing and rewarding yourself from time to time. But you shouldn’t have a nightly ritual of donking off the evening by staring at a glowing box of cable or satellite signals. Think of the children!!!
