I watch a lot of youtube and listen to a lot of music, but something that has intrigued me as I've visited my parents is how the TV is always on, and often on the news.
Dad will be on his ipad, Mom on her phone, with the news, or GMA or Today playing constantly in the background.
As someone that normally spends time in quiet, or with curated content, it's like a culture shock, and somewhat distracting.
@NiveusLepus My mom has always had the TV babble on in the background as long as I can remember. I don't get it either. It annoys the crap out of me.
