Parents Television Council

Nazi organization of soccer momsand conservatives. Hell bent on repealing the 1st amendment and illegalizing(sic)
any form of media that isn't about pink bunnies and ponies.
Hate video games also and try get any anti game legislation passed. Dis any show that mocks Christianity or promotes homosexuality.

Are people actually dumb enough to believe the shit that comes outta the Parents Television Council?

Parents Television Council

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?

Mankind's greatest and worst achievement.

I looked at an educational program and then watched Pimp My Ride.

Tantric Television

The principle of maximizing the pleasure of a new television series, by delaying the immediate and empty gratification of single episodes, building to a climax when the season can be enjoyed in its entirety.

I've been abstaining for months from the new season of Mad Men so when the box set is out I can practice my Tantric Television on the couch with the girlfriend.

televangelist

Someone who believes that greed, war, torture, Big Business, and depriving people of freedom are examples of following Jesus' commandment to "love your neighbor as yourself." Sometimes they place greater value on the Constitution of the United States than the Bible, and use it as an excuse for patriotism (a form of idolatry) and cutting government programs which help the poor. They claim they believe in a literal interpretation of the Bible, yet they believe in "the Rapture," which is not a very literal interpretation. Often, they think they can "rush" the Second Coming of Christ by promoting war in the Middle East.

I saw this televangelist on TV, who said that bombing the Middle East was God's will, and that sending him money will save me from my sins.

Television Audience Laugh

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.
