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...

like you I watch most of my television shows on the computer with headphones cause my hubby doesn't share the same interests in entertainment - sadly for me. we do watch some movies together, but a lot of the stuff I watch, I watch alone. but then I discuss it in fandoms with people like you - and that's the fun!! and it makes me tremendously happy! and relaxed:)

yea this survey is dumb - church and newspapers made people happy back in the 1800's - LOL!!

We may watch some things separately, but if we have seen some of the same things then that often becomes a topic of conversation, so we are socialising:)
