There's 8,760 hours in a year. Multiply that by 4. That's 35, 040 hours. I'm good with that number.

(24,344 posts)11. Already planned on no watching the news that day, can easily extend it to a few days.
Sports and streaming will still be on the tv, but zero news. I just can't take it.

As a pre-emptive move, i am refusing to buy one chicken wing, or anything else for the Superbowl. Netflix and Hulu and Audible love me.
