It's so hard being smart in such a dumb world! I feel assaulted at every turn....
Smacked with horrible spelling and writing, punched with dumbed-down entertainment, ads and culture, kicked by people talking to me as if I'm one of these idiots that needs to be talked to like a simpleton....
It's unbearable sometimes!
IIN to feel this way so much?

There are a lot of clever things out there, though. It's not all bad. In fact, in some ways I think the world is becoming more intelligent.
*looks at the OP*
Ahh!!
Trying telling a production company to make *less* profitable shows and films for people with more discerning tastes.
Although, by sheer good luck, it does happen here (of a fashion). Everyone with a TV pays a "license fee" which goes directly to the BBC. It comes to something like four billion pounds. The BBC then spends that money how it sees fit (and there are no adverts on the BBC so the only people it has to pander to is us, the license payer).
I think my favourite program the BBC have made recently has to be Sherlock. The first episode of the second series was amazing.
I have family who served (and died). I thought I knew what it was like. From this retelling, I realise I knew very little. Channel 4 is beholden to its advertisers and does have to be "profitable". How it manages to produce such quality TV at the same time can only be a credit to it.
By the way, I am the common man, so the OP can shizzle my nizzle.
