Exactly. This is why I stick to quality sources of content such as HackerNews and blog feeds of reputable, reliable thought leaders. Over-consumption only leads to cloudy, confused thoughts – I could fill my brain with trash from Reddit, but then I'd end up just another intellectual couch potato.
If I really feel the need to consume mindlessly, I prefer sources that I know are well curated, like Jason Kottke's blog [1] or sources that are crafted to get my mind back on track, like Zen Habits [2].
