anyway my favourite radio comedy sketch of recent years:

"I keep being asked if I want to be able to watch television on my mobile phone. The answer is no, for the same reason that I don't want to take a p*** in my tumble drier. There's already been something invented that does the job better."

(roughly)
I'm afraid I've reached the age where I couldn't agree more.
