Warning Against Adverse Health Effects From the Operation of Digital Broadcast
So many people are half-sick all the time already; will we even notice?
So many people I know say that they’ve noticed an increase of sometime very intense mystery headaches, aches and pains, general strange feelings and other sicknesses in the last few years especially.
Hmm… what could it be?
When I suggest it may be diet, I’m basically instantly dismissed… I shouldn’t be so stupid – diet doesn’t have that much of an effect on our condition!
Hmm… well then – and these are just ideas – maybe it’s also got something to do with electrical interference and stuff? You know, telecomm transmissions and stuff, that mobile phone that’s kept in your pocket next to your balls when it’s not strapped to your ear, maybe that big satellite TV dish on your neighbour’s roof pointing at your house instead of the sky, or especially being in such close proximity to that wireless internet setup you got last year and such? Well, that’s it – instant dismissal – I’m a conspiracy theorist… don’t I know They wouldn’t allow this stuff it was dangerous?
The other day someone asked for my advice on digital TV. I told him I don’t have a clue – not interested in it, don’t think about it. Should have seen the incredulous look on his face. Apparently I’m missing out by not being part of this ‘digital revolution’. He was waffling on about SD, HD, super HD, being able to finally record LIVE TV – LIVE, MAN! to HD!! (gee, wow), instant replays from live broadcasts (I tried explaining that none of it’s ever strictly live – always a delay, but I got steamrolled and told I don’t understand) and crap like that.
I’m starting to realise that I spend too much time with the wrong people… sad that most of these people are family or firends I’ve had for god-knows-how-long.
So, to summarize, I won’t bother mentioning this little article to anyone I know!

I’m starting to think of them as The TV People. The TV People are chronically ill, financially ruined (regardless of income) and bat shit crazy, in general.
That She Who Measures short film, from a few months back, summed it all up for me.

Since I can’t get a https://www.cryptogon.com t-shirt (Kevin, you’re leaving money on the table, boy; I mean, rilly, even Rigorous Intuition has one — your next contest can be one where ‘goners send in their logo proposals, with the top prize being a free t-shirt and kick ass ‘goner notoriety), maybe I can snag a shewhomeasures.com t-shirt somewhere.
(Wuz that a run-on sentence? Hell, no.)
