Infotainment
Real Talk: I 100% adore my 8-year-old niece, but it’s hard for me to talk to her about her favorite TV shows.
Because it makes me feel too morally superior.
Listen, kid. I grew up during the era of “infotainment.” So my favorite shows taught friggin’ life skills.
I’m talking “This Old House” and “Yan Can Cook” and the unsung HERO of them all “Square One TV.”
What I’m saying is, when I was your age, I could build a house, cook a four-course meal, and solve ANY math-based crime!! (#mathnet)
What crimes can YOU solve???
And why are you crying??
Why is your mother shaking her head at me??
Where is everyone going?
Why am I all alone again?
Author’s Note: I can no longer build a house or cook.
