Well, how do you fare compared to the Zeitgeist? Chat up your fellow wooters and let us know how lame this poll was or what obvious choices we missed. For example: Was this poll a) STUPID, b) DUMB, c) POINTLESS or d) ALL OF THE ABOVE?

I'm s'posed to comment, but it would prolly degrade my so-called reputation, so I won't.

I would say it's a tie between the first 4...or you could just sum it up and put in a choice for being too damn lazy.

The question said something that you wish you could cut back on, and some of us don't wish to cut back on our woot buying, even if our bank accounts do.

Of all the things listed, spending time on the internet is the only thing I could spend less time on. After all, there's only so much news that's really news, I get tired of the self-centered pap that passes for messaging on FaceBook, can't stand the pompous posturing by the twits on Twitter. How many things can there possibly be that I'm really not that interested in buying? I spend day after day perusing advertisements for products and services that I wouldn't give a second glance to in "real life." And don't get me started on all this rebroadcasting of TV programs on HULU and its ilk - it's so crappy I don't watch it the first time, so why would I bother not watching it being re-broadcasted? And is Letterman's Show any funnier the next day? NO! Same old stupid pet tricks and top ten lists as the night before. And streaming movies - are they any different than they were in the theater, or on the cheap-oid crap they sell at Wal-Fart? NO! Lassie still saves Timmy from the well, Godzilla still ruins Japan, season 6 of LOST still sucks. And what about all these self-centered, ego-maniacal, opinionated dorks who spend all their time filling discussion thread after discussion thread with their meaningless, irrelevant, pessimistic, semi-literate comments that . . . wait . . . There's something uninteresting up for bid on eBay. Maybe I'll go jack the price up, just to piss someone off. Speaking of which, just way too much time spent following those "deals" on eBay. It used to be easy to rip people off, but the new rules the eBay Gods legislate make it harder and harder to deke someone out of their PayPal accounts. Maybe I'll just go watch the promo for "NakedNews."

All of the above and a few more. I find myself a glutton of so many things that are a waste of time. I wish I could just be Amish.

wait a minute...screw that! I couldn't give up my smoking, drinking, internet, tv, OMGOMGOMGPONIESOMG PONIES!, and all other forms of debauchery and sin!

I would say 'Good day,' but 'SUCK IT" sounds better...

Sitting on me arse, shoveling fries into my face while watching the TV shopping channel with my laptop open reading about Lindsay Formerly Lohan's latest faux pa and thinking what a waste of skin. If only there were some humanly way to not do that.
