Imagine your life is the show "Rocket Power"

Do you think Otto's dad and uncle Tito ever have fights? You think they would ever have a permanent falling out? Is there at least awkward silences? Imagine living a cartoon life. Everything works out. You get married, have a good job, raise good kids. Shiny happy functional family of talented extreme sports competitors. Everything's always good, at least at the end of the episode. Real life is disappointing family members, disappointing friends, and everything less than ideal. This is why we waste away in front of the television. Life isn't as good outside the box as it is inside.

At least not for most.
