Maybe it comes with two remotes? And one of them has pink buttons?
It can be used both standing up and sititing down?
They're doing it backwards; walking up the down slide.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
According to WaPo, it's more stylish.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I've been coasting for *years* in my job. It's a miracle no one's noticed. Or they've noticed and they don't care.

I have no idea if my current tv is a men's tv or a women's tv.Mine has this big honking on/off-button adn very little things you can do without the remot so I guess mine's made for children.

I think it's because of the wider range of colors they claim it displays. And that whole thing about how women can see more variations in colors than men.

Maybe it comes with a HoYay button on the remote. Press it, and any two (or more) hot fellas on the screen drop the "sub" in "subtext".

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Wait, no, there should be "sub" and "text" -- just not together.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Mmm... A TV made for both het and slash.

Yup. Everyone knows I'm coasting in this job, but if they give me goals and I meet those goals, then there's no reason for them to bitch that I'm not making 130% of goal regularly, is there? If I put my efforts into overdrive, I can cream any and all requirements, but the reward isn't worth it. Yeah, there are production bonuses and such, but they're not worth the stress I'd have to put myself under to achieve them.
My biggest advantages are over a decade of experience in this very job, encyclopedic knowledge of obscure things that keeps me from needing my hand held in strange situations, understanding our clients' processes to the point where I've helped design some of our production processes, and the willingness to be here until the sun goes cold.
I don't get gold stars, but I don't get glared at too much, either.

I can't even.
"You're clever, charismatic, and lazy. We'll be talking often. Fix it."
I had a boss savvy enough to say this to me once. I outlasted him. Dude, if I wanted a senior management job with a 30% pay increase and a 200% hours increase, I'd have one.
