Having the television turned on with the sound off, and playing music (typically on a stereo). Although not required, yankee television is usually accompanied by "altered" states of mind. Yankee television is so called owing to the fact that it usually done by people from the northern United States.
Since there's nothing on TV tonight, I'm just going to watch yankee television.

A bunch of goody two shoe arseholes who believe it's a better choice to watch after other children when instead, they should be watching their own.

They're globally known as "attention whores" and "giant cry babies"

They also believe in the fact that the world will be balanced, if there were only G - Rated shows on TV. If that was the case, teenagers would ultimately die from boredness.

The point is, PTC is nothing but a bunch of selfish adults, who believe that Television will kill the minds of ANYONE. If they read this, they would waste their valuable time tracking my ass down, and direct me to the Police because I was "cyber bullying".

This is nothing but the truth.

A united group of soccer moms who's lack of intelligience makes them think that it's the TV networks -as well as the countries- repsonsibility to censor what THEIR kids are watching, when their dumb butts should know that it's their own damn fault if they catch their kids watching a TV-MA program on Comedy Central at 11:00p.m.
The Parents Television Council is a bunch of bitchy television nazis who want to make the lives of other miserable while making their own kids miserable.

The worst people on the planet. They are comparable to the grease on the floor of gas station bathrooms. They think the Government, TV Networks, and everyone else should take care of their kids, except them. They bitch and file their "FCC Indecency Complaints" every time Saturday Night Live accidentally airs an uncensored "Fuck" after Midnight, because "Their Children Are Watching".

A website that I use to determine which shows are the best. The shows that the PTC whines the most about are clearly worth watching, and the ones that they give their seal of approval to are to be avoided at all costs.

They are currently ranked 'World-Class' in their whining abilities.
So, Parents Television Council, why do you whine about shows that are on at 9pm, when kids have already gone to sleep? Why do you have such an unhealthy obsession with Seth MacFarlane?

A Television Audience Laugh (TAL) happens when someone makes a joke, gets no laughs from the people currently in the room but from the studio audience on the sitcom on the TV.
I made a joke one day and the Television Audience laughed for me.
