Back in the old days that anxiety was two fold, as we had to physically deliver movies to Blockbuster, or the like. However, Netflix claims to be anxiety-free by not charging late fees.
Tsk tsk, my anxious friends. We know that after a while, that red envelope sitting near the TV must be watched. We've opened it, gotten exciting about its contents, but not yet taken the time to watch it. And we know we won't be getting our next red envelope surprise until we sit for two whole hours and watch whatever movie that's been sitting there losing luster by the day.
It's as if just having the movie at the house makes it less desirable to watch. And knowing we can keep it forever makes it utterly unwatchable.
Foolproof ways to feel anxious: Get Netflix if you don't have it. For those of you who have the pricey unlimited Netflix accounts, pare down. And for those of you who watch movies regularly and return them, see another post on my blog. There's no need to relax 24 hours a day.
