[Kurt Vonnegut: TV is enough... is providing artificial friends
and relatives to lonely people. What, what it is, is uh,
recurrent families; the same friends and relatives come back,
week after week, after week, after week. And they're wittier,
and they're better looking, and they're
Em(2) G/D Em6/C# Cmaj7
much more interesting, and they're richer
than your real friends and relatives.]
