Poll: Would you rather live without a dishwasher or a television?

[Jason]

Few appliances in the home stir such passion and devotion as the dishwasher and the television. One gives us more leisure time, the other consumes it. But which device would you rather live without?

Hello @ro-novation. I greatly admire your strength of character. You're a true warrior ! I must confess I'm not. I love my comfort even though I live in an 'almost renovated' she-shed cabin which is only 6x9 mtrs. (I will have a deck soon so that will be good) How do you manage without the information and entertainment factor of television ? I'm really interested to know -do you use a computer for these functions,do you read books,etc..very often, and how  do other members of the family react ? Please excuse me if you prefer not to answer. I don't mean to sound nosey. I really am interested Cheers

The Workshop community has spoken. The vast majority of community members would much rather live without a dishwasher than part with their beloved telly.

Hi @Trying, not nosey at all! Don't worry :---)

I tend to use my computer for most functions - I find social media (like Twitter and Facebook to a degree) keep me up to date on news and information. In my field of work (music industry) I spent a lot of time on the internet - for both entertainment and work purposes! I've just never really felt the desire to watch much TV, to be honest. I find my housemates are in the same boat :----)
