I do those things. Also, I watch movies, which is obviously what the question addressed. I don’t think your answer added anything substantive or meaningful to the conversation at all, and was at best a condescending distractor.

I don't know, I think it's a good contrast to the sort of shrill voices that crop up on this topic. Like when people complain how expensive it is once they task themselves to subscribe to every streaming TV service, as if it wasn't self-inflicted or as if the point of life is to maximize TV consumption.
We take our culture of hyper-consumption for granted so much that people scoff when you suggest "well, why not consume less? What's the big deal?"
It's not like we need more posts of people vocalizing how begrudgingly they subscribe to Netflix in every Netflix thread. As if unsubscribing is never an option. It's a bit exhausting to scroll through.
