12pt. trebuchet ms

i'm bewildered, saddened, and concerned by the fact that i've been profusely staring at the same television for three years now and only tonight did i notice that it says "technitron" in white lettering on the top right corner. i have spent the larger part of many days staring at this box and yet i never once consiously saw the word "technitron". even as i sit here i have to think hard about whether or not "technitron" is actually the exact word that's written there. i may have to run downstairs and check because i doubt i'll ever be sure enough to settle on it. this concerns me, not only for myself, but because i suspect that there are others who can make this claim. many others. think about your television. what does it say? i'm going out on a limb here asking this question, because i'm 45% sure that it sounds completely crazy. honestly, whether the answer be "uh, i don't know" or "it says 'zenith' in 24pt impact on the bottom center. underneath it is writter 'colorchrome' 12 pt helvetica, slightly off center left." it's still a lose-lose situation. answer the latter and i am a brain dead moron, my life is ruined, i am completely insensitive, and it's probably never going to change, so i'm basically doomed. answer the former (and a sick and selfish part of me wishes you do) and we're all pretty much fucked.

Hi floaty. Mine says jvc. I might say other stuff too, but i'm too ignorant to notice. I do not think we are doomed. I have little sensitivity for my tv, and this lack of sensitivity has served me quite well. Perhaps it hints at darker problems within my phyche, and for that reason perhaps i am doomed, but i think i'll worry about it when i need a new tv. Which will hopefully be never. Here's to hoping!!!
