So I kinda have let myself become a Netflix On Demand whore. Well I mean, officially I think its called “Netflix Instant”, but I cannot change my comcastic ways. Way back when I first started up my Netflix subscription the only thing available for the instant service were promotional videos about new types of shampoo, and Bob Villa’s: This Old House episodes, but I watched all those through on the original airings.
Then all of the sudden actual real movies began to show up, and then animated movies a-la Justice League, or Superman Vs. Doomsday. And then full DVDs worth of fine television such as Sliders, The Office, or The Tick. And it was good. But I have noticed something over the past few months that must have settled in the back of my reptilian brain long ago, but just bubbled to the top of my conscious recently. The good-ish movies that are available to watch are only available for a few weeks. This creates a quandary for me.
My issue is this- balancing my schedule. I already have to work 40-48 hours a week engineering the future for a better tomorrow using my big meat-brain, then there is doing Ninja Ken stuff, then videogames, then girlfriend, and eating, and sleeping, and working out on my fantastic pecs, and a million other things. And then in strolls Netflix, demanding 2 hours a night from my life. I normally have 6 hours of free time each day during the week, and Netflix is raping it.
Fuck you Netflix, your love is like a kryptonite-gloved punch to my Superman groin, and you are ruining my free time.
