This is a very interesting question and i'm surprised i've never seen anyone ask this before! Maybe we all dont want to admit we're the same way LOL I think its just an effect of the way society is,and we just think its normal. You're right,what WOULD you do if you didnt have a tv,videogames,or the internet? You could read a book,but i think you can learn just as much from the internet. You could excersise,but you cant really work out for 8 hours a day. You could hang out with friends,but most people are busy with their families,school or work to hang out for 8 hours a day every day. You could get a part time job but then you're working too much and you're not doing anything relaxing or fun. I think tv and the internet isnt ALL BAD as long as your mind is contributing,like if youre watching a program that is helping you learn,or if you are doing something worthwhile.
