Dad buys a newspaper every Saturday, so I read one every other week, when I'm with him. Not sure it makes me happy, although we do read one of the more balanced papers, The Independent, if I was reading The Daily Mail or any other right-wing tabloid rag then I'd probably just be angry!
Watching TV isn't a social activity for us, I watch my downloads on my laptop with headphones, and Mum watches what she's recorded on the TV. We watch a few things together, but I still wouldn't call it social, but it certainly doesn't make us unhappy, I'm sure!
And I always doubt the findings of surveys that say that people who go to church are in any way better/happier/whatever...
