Is the world OCD or something?

Is the world OCD or something?
Because it feels like things like older video games, network television, registration pages, technology in general, and the YouTube bot were all made by OCD people.

Am I going crazy?

That's a very random sounding list.
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
Psalm 14, KJV revised edition

Network Television.

We wait a week to watch the program we want at a specific time.
Then we wait another week to watch the next episode at the same time.
Then another week.
Then another week.
Then another week.

Even though we know the show was already filmed and ready to be aired. Why can't we just watch it as much as we want like on pretty much any streaming service right now? Why do we even still have Network Television?

Because the television industry - like the film industry - is years behind the rest of the world. Streaming will inevitably replace it in time. Putting traditional TV on life support won't help save it.

So streaming is the future?

You mean Network Television? Couldn't you apply the same logic to religion?

People like routines, and traditions take a long time to die out.

RE: Is the world OCD or something?
hehehe ...Hey guys .... It's not like God is available 24/7 for us, is it?
He only talks to us on Sundays once we empty our wallets out.

I think I'd rather watch Days of our Lives than listen to another coma inducing sermon.
