For example, I sometimes will listen to sports radio in my vehicle. I don't particularly care for the hosts or what they're going on about. But I listen to them anyways when my mind doesn't want to listen to the music on the ipod.

I like sports, but I just find all formats of sports talk boring and dragged out. But it's something sometimes that I'll turn to, to make me feel like as if I'm with everyone else when I know I don't care.

Another example is when I watch late night shows, like Letterman's or Conan's. I know the scene is different now with Fallon and Kimmel and all. Whenever I watch a single clip or an episode of them, it feels like I'm just getting into the window of what's going on in the world that's being covered while I spend way too much time ignoring the world in general.
