Netflix is a force for evil. I'm growing ever more certain of this. It makes it so easy to say, "Well, maybe I'll just try one or two. I mean, why not? What could be the harm?" And, tragically, you don't realize until much too late that the potential for harm is immense. At least, I don't figure it out until I'm even more behind on my sleep, and Best Beloved is openly mocking me over dinner.

And we truly don't live all that far from each other; you live in Thousand Oaks, right? And I live near Torrance. We are both citizens of the conglomeration of dinky suburbs that, united, became a teeming metropolis! With freeways that resemble mall parking lots at Christmastime!
