> I mean, is it bad? This is everyone I know back home. They go to work, come home, eat, and watch TV. It's a life. If you believe your origin and your destiny are agent-less and meaningless, then it makes the most sense to call everything in the middle meaningless also. Thus - eat, drink, watch TV, have fun till it's over. I can see that making sense. But if life and its pursuits have any shred of meaning, then I think it's OK to say they could be doing better things with their time. |

For some reason, though, there are a shitload of people out there that don't have this ambition. I understand difficulty empathizing with it, because to people like you and me it does look like a "waste of time." But for some reason it really is just ideal for a lot of people to be able to switch their brain off and sit comfortably in front of a TV and be entertained.
For these people, you could argue "you should be doing something better with your time," but all you'd get back is "why? This is comfortable."
