Netflix Is Ruining My Academic Career

I always enjoy blaming someone or something else for my short comings. This week I would like to blame Netflix, I just can't stop watching Netflix so I can write my paper, which is due tomorrow. Like a Siren in the night Netflix calls to me. I, a simple sailor on the S.S. Education, can't resist the haunting song of old Wings, Parks and Rec, and Bones episodes and documentaries about the evolution of food and corrupt businesses. As my ship sinks to the bottom of the sea I feel no remorse, how could I? When Tony Shalhoub keeps cracking me up!
So, what person, place, or thing keeps you procrastinating and stops you from productivity?

For me it's equal parts Netflix and blog stalking. A double whammy.

Good luck sailor!

Wings?!? What?!? How is this even possibly? Great. Now I have to watch Wings too.

I blame Netflix and my friend that is really funny and hot and cool. She's the worst. She's always like "hey Abbie, let's just go hang out and stay our way too late and go to the corner deli and eat El Pato"

...

Oh crap.

Oh Leslie, I know how you feel!! Right now my problem Netflix show is Kyle XY! Why is it that the silly/seemingly meaningless shows can hinder such progress? I'll tell you why. It's comfort food, in television show form. It screams, "Watch me, and all of your worries will disappear, and I will make the time fly like the wind!" This is how I feel when I eat french fries, or ice cream. It's just hard to let go....when it's oh so very inviting!!
