It's been about 8 years since I've had a cable television subscription, and it now feels really weird that past me was willing to pay $100+ USD/month to have access to television shows filled with commercials. I barely have the patience to sit through a single commercial anymore. Not only am I unlikely to buy any given car, feminine product (as a male), bottle of alcohol, financial product, prescription drug, etc., I simply don't want to reminded 58 bajillion times that I need something I really don't need or want.
