Manna for the mindless

Manna for the mindless is a disparaging description of television programmes that do no more than fill up air time. The programmes that are banal, trivial and boring and which, if they were a person, would be described as a WOFS. You know the sort of crap, pretty well all of daytime television, soap operas screened at any time, moronic game shows, chat shows featuring liggers or z-list celebrities, the list just goes on. It is the sort of programme which doesn’t require dumbing down as it is targeted at fuckwits or insomniacs who need something other than drugs to help them sleep.
Before twenty-four seven television was inflicted on a long-suffering human race, manna for the mindless was typified by film serials where the hero always overcame impossible odds to rescue the heroine from an impossible situation and the villain was always defeated. Either that or the Hollywood musical of the 1950s such as Carousel or South Pacific, total shite consisting of totally forgettable songs, stilted dialogue and a non-existent plot.

"Jane, would you like to come bird watching, there’s a good chance of a peregrine’s mating display"
"No, I've got to watch Loose Women!"
"Manna for the mindless!"

Manna for the mindless

Deriving from the tag 'Manna for the mind' used to describe books and literature, 'Manna for the mindless' is a disparaging but accurate description of banal entertainment of any sort, particularly daytime television, long running soaps, stupid game shows, chat shows and so on. It consists of material that is so dumb it doesn't require 'dumbing down' and is no more than prdigested pap which can be understood by people with a below normal IQ. Before the advent of twenty-four seven television manna for the mindless was typified by the Hollywood musical of the 1950s. These consisting entirely of eminently forgettable songs joined together by crappy dialogue and a plot so thin you could shoot peas through it.

"Kim, d'you want to come out for a walk?"
"No, I've got to watch Jeremy Kyle!"
"Manna for the mindless!"

mindlessness meditation

A popular form of meditation that is a variation on mindfulness meditation which seeks to undo or diminish consciousness to decrease the possibility of feeling responsible for anything.

I have absolutely no idea why I did that, but recently I’ve been practicing mindlessness meditation; there may be a connection, but I really can’t say for sure.

Mindless Drone

Corporate parasites. Someone who lets the Government and media make their decisions for them. They have no mind of their own.

Tom: Hey, do you like dogs.
Jerry: I read in the paper that they kill people so no.
Tom: You're such a mindless drone.

mindless self indulgence

A beat-driven, whiney techno-punk band from NYC who gets in your head and doesn't get out. Their live shows are great.

Yo, I got that Mindless Self Indulgence CD! It's got 30 tracks yet manages to still be under an hour!
