(5,005 posts)You walk into an empty waiting room etc where Fox is on - you change the channel.
You walk into a room with people already there where Fox is on - you ask if anyone minds if you change the channel. 99% of the time, no one is going to mind. You change the channel.
You walk into a room with people already there where Fox is on - you ask if anyone minds if you change the channel. 1% of the time, someone will mind. You hold your nose and wait until that person leaves, then you change the channel.
What is so difficult about this? Do you feel the need to act as the final authority on every peon's viewing habits? Or do you just think that you're so much smarter than everyone else, that no one will be able to figure out on their own that Fox is pure entertainment?
I know you've painted yourself into a corner with this OP and can't back down now, and I expect you'll respond with more raspberries, but really, what's so wrong with my approach?
