Ya'll wanna hear something funny?
So I get a letter in the mail telling me I've been chose to be involved in the Neilsen ratings. For those folks who may not have said rating system in their country, the Neilsen ratings is a survey they give to people to see what TV shows are being watched.
They've called my home about 18 times and I actually picked up one of their calls. They asked me what shows I watch.
I said, "none." I don't watch TV.
Then they said "why?" I said because everything on TV is dumb and stupid.
Then they said, "That's the kind of information we need."
I said, "Ok. Can I go now?"
They said, "So what shows do you watch?"
I said, "Uh. None. That's what I don't watch TV means."
They said, "So you've been chose to participate in the Neilsen ratings."
I went, "Ok. Can I go now?"
The person said, "Ok."
So a week later I get a big package in the mail from the Neilsen ratings people.
The packet had a TV viewing log and 5 one dollar bills.
I pocketed the money and looked at the log. That was the easiest 5 dollars I ever made.
My viewing log is blank.
Why?
(Let's say it together) Because I don't watch TV.
I hope I get chosen again next year. I like getting 5 dollars for doing nothing.
