I haven't watched TV for years; how is this an issue? [Queue up obligatory TV snob link...]
Nah; you're not a snob; you're just stupid. Because you're stupid, I'll answer the question. See if you can get a grown-up to explain it to you.
It's an issue because many people watch television, for many reasons. Those people are talking about it in this thread. The fact that you can't afford television, or don't watch it for some other reason, is possibly interesting to you, but not particularly germane to the subject. No doubt there are a number of people across the world who do not watch TV, many of them for perhaps the same reason as you. Their declarations would of course also be meaningless -- but they weren't stupid enough to fail to realize it. In this thread, making such a statement is not meaningful to the topic.
It is in fact, demonstrably a failure, just as telling everyone you touched yourself inappropriately this morning. While it might be interesting to you, it's not related to the topic.
Hope this helps.
