TV lamps: Shoddy Goods 062
0Huh, I’ve never heard of TV lamps, but I did hear “Don’t sit so close to the TV, you’ll hurt your eyes” every Saturday morning. It now seems more likely reading led me to my high-powered prescription than those cartoons.
Similarly, apparently it’s perfectly fine to go swimming right after you eat despite the constant threats we heard that we would cramp up and drown if we got in after only 29 minutes. Remember any other urgent parental health proclamations that now seem to be overblown?

Eye Patches. I had a drifting eye, (Still do, but I got better controlling it) so Ma would stick a BANDAGE over my eye. It was terrible. I still get phantom feelings if I think of it. Eugh. Thank God they don’t really exist anymore.
@Wollyhop what doesn’t exist?
Are TV lamps used when you need extra illumination to eat your TV dinner?
My mom used to freak out if I tried to go outside too soon after a shower because I would catch a cold due to my pores being open. I never was able to talk sense into her on that one. Sheesh.
