Addendum to what I hate about Ramadhan
A recent chat (thanks, Avie) has led me to clarify my earlier statements regarding sahur time local TV viewing. Yes, Quraish Shihab isn’t a laugh riot, but then again he isn’t supposed to be. Unlike the freak shows on the other channels, who’re trying to be funny, but just end up being loud and annoying. Though maybe that’s the entire point - perhaps they’re supposed to be loud and annoying in order to shake viewers out of their sleep-induced stupor, using prize-winning quizzes with moronic, simple questions as added incentive.
Yes, I have a choice not watch those loud, annoying shows, and I exercise that choice as much as possible. So why am I bitching about them? Well, because I have a right to exercise my choice to bitch, so there.
That is all.
