Last chance !!

Hi,

Sydneysiders get their last change to watch analogue TV tonight.

Melbournians follow suit next week.

Only a few, low power transmitters in the NT will remain after that.

According to ABC radio this morning, about 5% of Sydney's TV watchers have not made provison for the switch off.

So maybe 150,000 will get a surprise on Tuesday after 9.00 AM.

FYI:

Or find better things to spend their money on.

Given the crap programs and the carnage on aerials from fat white cockatoos, I can not be bothered doing anything once the current STB dies. I know of at least six(?) free online news sources with imagery, so that is the news covered.

The nooks are better, i.e. I've basically read all the plot lines before. The emphasis these days seems to be gory effect with story telling sacrificed and when you understand the basics of the programming behind the CG, it is unimpressive.

The PBS ones can be interesting, but must assume that you're brain dead with the retension of a goldfish and just waste time.

Oh gawddd, I thought it had already started. Obviously YMDV.

The UHF-only antennae have smaller elements, presumably more durable under a cockatoo ?

Pop 150,000 people on the net watching those and it'll slow to a crawl.

** Just another typical, genetic autistic moron - really.
** That neatly reveals that your autistic brain cannot process either the rapidly changing visual or audio content.

Most people enjoy watching TV for the information and entertainment it offers - for next to no cost too.

The only people who do not are blind, deaf, very stupid or highly autistic fuckwits.

Just like the Jebus troll.

Has anyone bothered plotting the degree of vitriol in Phil's responses against time?

I wonder if there is a pattern.

Not that a know nothing troll like you would recognise a single one of them if it bit you.

still making your name as a tired old queen filthy ?

perhaps topping yourself would be advisable as the obvious path to relief instead of sucking meat pipes as per your usual behaviour

Its the zimm fkickery that counts and not the information content these days. I've also notice that SWMBO just ignores the TV after ABC news and is content with computer games if she isn't doing one of here hobbies.

As I say, there is only so many times you can watch even the good movies and most of them are getting into the teenager years of repeats.

I'd day the vitriol peaks when his mum is on dialysis all day and he can't have sex with her.

Perhaps, I'd have thought the dialysis would work as a tether & prevent her escape, unless she is a willing participant of course............

All of which goes to at least partly explain Phallison's wonderful personality...
