OP No, it's not about "valley speak" (let's see how the power of suggestion really works), it's about words for that thing. Ya know, the box with the pictures and sound. That thing that was *supposed to be the best educational invention in the last century, but quickly went downhill from there. That thing people stare at some ungodly amount of time each day, and now when they don't, they stare at its not so little and growing brother the computer. Hey yer lookin' at one right now!
We used to call it "the tube".
Dad called it "the idiot box".
Any other favorite colloquialisms for *it?
