Who doesn't like to lay in bed for a full 8 hours and binge watch 3 seasons of old tv show? Probably some people but I'm not one of those people. But some days I wish I were because I honestly think Netflix is ruining/has ruined my life. I'm honestly still trying to figure out if the good Lord sent this collection of childhood memories and romantic comedies or if Satan himself sent it because literally Kim it's addicting. I feel like I should go to AA or maybe NA, Netflix anonymous. All this sounds a bit over dramatic but most of those shows I watch are unrealistically dramatic.
You not only get to watch your favorite ABC Family, CW, or Disney Channel shows but you get to watch Netflix original series. For example, "Orange Is The New Black" has made me think, "wow maybe jail is like a big sorority but not as pretty and a lot less fun." But then I go back and question myself and think about going to see a therapist. Then there are shows like "Grey's Anatomy" that make you consider changing your major and go to med school because Meredith Grey did. No, that is not okay to base your life goals off of a fictional character whose life is completely made up by a woman whose life goal is to rip out hearts of all the people who watch (that's right, I'm coming for you Shonda Rhimes). Grey’s also makes you really get into your feelings and leaves you with tears pouring don your face and rage (thanks again Shonda). But that leads me to the shows that honestly get you so in your feels you have to take a break from them because you are emotional drained after watching 5 consecutive episodes. We all know where this is going, right? Right because yep, that's right, "One Tree Hill" you are the reason I am emotionally unstable. One Tree Hill gives you boys like Lucas and Nathan Scott who make you think love is patient, love is kind, love is all mine. Let's be honest here, we all know that isn't true but those Scott boys sure so make you think it's true.
Netflix ultimately is a blessing and curse all rolled up into one multi-million dollar company. My love/hate for it is so strong but honestly, my love is the strongest. Keep doing you Netflix. I'll namste’in my bed and keep basing my #lifegoals off the many fictional shows you have to offer.
