A 20" TV?

Yes. I was born a long, long time ago but I find this list of college dorm necessities appalling. Am I turning into a grumpy old man or is it unnecessary to have a 20" LCD TV AND a fridge in your room? What kind of energy consumption are they responsible for? Whatever happened to the green generation?

The ten dorm necessities when I went off to university in 1973 were:

  1. Bong
  2. Backup bong
  3. Poster from "Dark Side of the Moon"
  4. Frisbee
  5. Rolling papers
  6. Fake ID
  7. Cocktail shaker
  8. Tang
  9. Condoms

What's with all this materialism all of a sudden?
